GRAY, PRINTER, 95 and 91 Cliff Street, N. Y. INTRODUCTORY SKETCH. The Reformed Protestant Dutch Utiurcti in JNorth-America is the oldest offspring of the Reformed Church of Holland, which was one of the earliest children of Protestantism. That Church adopted its " Confession of Faith" in 1561, just one year before the first "Articles of Religion" were set forth as the standards of the Church of England under Queen Elizabeth. While the Protestants in the Netherlands were thus establishing the religious sentiments of John Calvin, they took good care to carry out his views in regard to the instruction of the people ; for, eminent as he was as a theologian, Calvin, beyond dis- pute, was also " the father of popular education, the inventor of the system of free schools." Accordingly, we find that neither the perils ; of war, nor the pursuit of gain, nor the excitement of political strife ever caused the Calvinistic Hollanders to neglect the duty of educating their offspring to enjoy that freedom for which their fathers had fought. Schools were everywhere provided, with good schoolmasters to instruct the children of all classes in the usual branches of education, as well as in the catechism and doctrines of the Church ; and the several con- sistories were bound " to use their best endeavors that a sufficient number of students in theology should be constantly maintained at the public expense." In 1574. durins: the darkest period of their war first JDutcn Clergy iiiaij, oergainiio ia,uui» mere. J\.i ine same rnue, A^dam Roelandsen, the first schoolmaster, entered upon the discharge r his duties. While New-Netherland remained a Dutch Province, edu- :.'ation continued to receive the fostering care of the public authorities md, in succession, Cornelissen, Vestens, Drisius, La Montague, Van Hoboken, Pietersen, Corlaer, Curtius, and Luyck superintended the nstruction of youth. The Classis of Amsterdam, from time to time, 'lent out educated clergymen to minister in the various congregations which had been established here ; and, under the general supervision i)f the Synod of North-Holland, that Classis continued, for more than I century after the surrender of New-Netherland, to be the ecclesias xiie Rev. Dr. Ira Condictwas likewise appointed Professor of Moral Philosophy, and Dr. Robert Adrain, Professor of Mathematics. Upon the death of Dr. Condict in 1811, the Rev. Dr. John Schureman, one of the ministers of the Collegiate Church in New-York, was appointed to succeed him as Professor of Moral Philosophy and Belles-Lettres, and also acted as Vice-President of the College. In 1813, upon the resignation of Dr. Adrain, Henry Vethake, A.M., was appointed Professor of Mathematics; and in 1814, the Rev. Cornelius C. Vermeule was appointed Professor of Languages. With this able faculty. Queen's College struggled for a few years to maintain itself. But receiving no patronage from the State, its Trustees were obliged to suspend the exercises of the Lit- erary Department in 1816. At that time Dr. Schureman was associated with Dr. Livingston as Professor in the Theological Seminary. Upon the death of Dr. Schureman in 1818, Dr. Thomas De Witt was elected by the Synod ri- a year, for three years, for the suppo.. ^. .. Consistory at once answered favorably to the request of the Board, upon condition that funds for the endowment of a third professorship should be secured within the Particular Synod of Albany. This object, chiefly through the exertions of Dr. Ludlow, who was then minister of the North Church in Albany, was happily accomplished ; and the suc- cessful issue was reported to the General Synod, at its adjourned session in New-Brunswick, in September, 1825. At that session, the Commit- tee of Synod previously appointed, consisting of Drs. Knox, Ludlow, and Thomas De Witt, and Messrs. Hardenbergh and Heyer, report- ed a plan for the revival of the College, (drawn up by Dr. Ludlow,) which was approved, and was the basis of a covenant entered into between the Trustees of the College and the General Synod. It was therein provided, among other things, that the Professors of the Theo- logical Seminary should have such literary duties assigned them in the College by the General Synod as the Synod should deem best calculated - 9 lo promote the mutual interest of both institutions ; that the Trustees should elect one of the Theological Professors as President ; that they should appoint a Professor of Languages and one of Mathematics and Natural Philosophy ; and that they should have the use of part of thc^ College building which had been purchased by the Synod. Pursuant to this covenant Queen's College was revived. Professor Milledoler was- elected President of the College by the Trustees, and Professors De Witt and Woodhull, of the Theological Seminary, w^ere assigned respectively to the chairs of Belles-Lettres and Metaphysics, by the Synod.

  • Louisa Wood Ruby
    CHAPTER ONE DUTCH ART AND THE HUDSON VALLEY PATROON PAINTERS Louisa Wood Ruby One of the earliest "schools" of American painting, the Hudson Valley patroon painters, has often been considered to have derived from seventeenth-century English portraiture. Portraits of English aristo- crats appealed to Dutch patroons as displays of the kind of social status they aspired to in their new country. British mezzotints after original paintings by Sir Godfrey Kneller and others provided the patroon painters with readily available models on which to base their portraits of wealthy Dutch Americans. Unfortunately, this convincing analysis vastly underestimates the influence of Dutch art and taste on the development of these paintings. Frequently overlooked in the discussion of the appeal of British portraiture to Dutch patroons is the fact that English portraiture of the seventeenth century was, in fact, a direct descendant of the Netherlandish portrait tradition. Kneller, the main source for the mez- zotints that flooded New York, was trained in Amsterdam. Sir Peter Lely was born in Holland, and of course Sir Anthony Van Dyck was from Antwerp. Wealthy Dutch families in New York would have been aware of the Netherlandish tradition through works of art they brought with them from their homeland. Indeed, the first paintings produced in New Amsterdam and early New York were essentially Dutch, since no other tradition existed here at the time. When British mezzotints finally arrived in 17 10, they did indeed appeal to the patroon families, most likely because they were works grounded in the Dutch tradition, then overlaid with elements of British culture and style.

  • American Protestant Missions in Nineteenth-Century China
    Asian Intercultural Contacts American Protestant Missions in Nineteenth-Century China By George B. Pruden background: Religion and Trade European Catholics mounted the first systematic effort to convert Chinese to Christi- anity in the late sixteenth century. Their work was part of the Catholic Counter Refor- mation, but by 1750, the glory days were over. Jesuits such as Matteo Ricci (1552–1610) had not only won converts, but gained the respect of influential Chinese and even some emperors in the latter part of the Ming dynasty (1368–1644) and the early part of the Qing dynasty (1644– 1912). Their success stemmed in part from accommodating the tradition of venerating an- cestors (calling it a civil and not a religious prac- tice) and using Chinese terms to refer to God. A rival monastic order, though, had gained the Pope’s support in condemning those accommodations. This Rites Controversy came to a head during the early eighteenth century. After Pope Clement IX prohibited Chinese Christian converts from taking part in ancestor-veneration ceremonies in 1715, the Kangxi Emperor in 1721 banned all Christian preaching in China. Although Catholic missionaries remained in China, their numbers and influence dwindled. ithin a few decades of the decline of Catholic presence in China, western European merchants arrived in growing numbers, eager for trade. Silk and porcelain—at the time produced only in WChina—fed a growing appetite for chinoiserie among the European elite classes. Tea became a popular beverage, not only for the aristocracy, but also for their affluent, social-climbing imitators among the country gentry and urban merchant class.

  • ABSTRACT Liang Fa's Quanshi Liangyan and Its Impact on The
    ABSTRACT Liang Fa’s Quanshi liangyan and Its Impact on the Taiping Movement Sukjoo Kim, Ph.D. Mentor: Rosalie Beck, Ph.D. Scholars of the Taiping Movement have assumed that Liang Fa’s Quanshi liangyan 勸世良言 (Good Words to Admonish the Age, being Nine Miscellaneous Christian Tracts) greatly influenced Hong Xiuquan, but very little has been written on the role of Liang’s work. The main reason is that even though hundreds of copies were distributed in the early nineteenth century, only four survived the destruction which followed the failure of the Taiping Movement. This dissertation therefore explores the extent of the Christian influence of Liang’s nine tracts on Hong and the Taiping Movement. This study begins with an introduction to China in the nineteenth century and the early missions of western countries in China. The second chapter focuses on the life and work of Liang. His religious background was in Confucianism and Buddhism, but when he encountered Robert Morrison and William Milne, he identified with Christianity. The third chapter discusses the story of Hong especially examining Hong’s acquisition of Liang’s Quanshi liangyan and Hong’s revelatory dream, both of which serve as motives for the establishment of the Society of God Worshippers and the Taiping Movement. The fourth chapter develops Liang’s key ideas from his Quanshi liangyan and compares them with Hong’s beliefs, as found in official documents of the Taipings. The fifth chapter describes Hong’s beliefs and the actual practices of the Taiping Movement and compares them with Liang’s key ideas.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.
