RENSSELAER COUNTY BUSINESS DIRECTORY. 1 Cancers Cured ! DR. KINGSLEY, OIF' iloivee:, i^- tt-. Has discovered a perfect cure for Cancers without the use of the knife. Thousands of cases cured can testify to the efficacy of this plan of treatment. This preparation will destroy the specific nature of most Cancers in from ten to sixty minutes. Even in those large Cancerous afl^'ections of the breast, from which so many females die annually, my specific is equally as elTectnal as in those smaller surface Cancers. Ninety-nine out of a hundred of all those persons who have died from Cancer, could easily have been cured. Cancer has been considered from time immemorial the greatest scourge of the human race ; but the time will come when all shall see that it is as remediable as any other dis- ease. At the same time remedies are given to purify the blood and fortify the system against a renewed attack. In all cases, if the Cancer is not too far advanced, a perfect cure is warranted, or no charge. Most persons are greatly de'ceived in regard to the first symptoms and appearance of Cancer, considering it very painful from the commencement. This is a sad mistake, (causing the death of thousands,) there being but little or no pain until the Cancer is far advanced. The only symptoms for months, and in some cases even for years, is occa- sionally either a stringing, itching, smarting, burning, creeping or shooting sensation, and in some cases not even any of these. Nearly all of those kernels or lumps that occur in the female breast, and also those unnatural appearances in the form of crusts or warty excrescence, which appear in either sex on the face, lips, nose, eye lids, or any other part of the surface, are cancers. Cancer is very easily cured in its early stage, consequently it is of the very greatest importance that all thus aftlicted should have immediate treat- ment ; as thousands of very valuable lives have been lost from pure neglect, having been misguided by physicians having no knowledge of the disease, who, by calling it Scrofula, Erysipelas, Salt Rheum or some other non-terrifying disease, lull this unfortunate class in the cradle of ignorance, until upon the very verge of death, when, to hide such ignor- ance, the physician tells the patient that it lias finally turned to Cancer, and cannot be cured. There is no such thing as turning to Cancer. Whatever ends in Cancer, began in Cancer. Be no lonoer deceived. If you have the slightest suspicion of trouble, seek immediate relief and thereby preserve life. Consumption, Bronchitis, Catarrh, Asthma, Heart Disease, Dyspepsia, Liver Com- plaint, Pits, St. Vitus' Dance, Neuralgia, Scald Head, Piles, Tape Worms, or Worms of any kind, all Diseases of the Skin, Pimples, Scrofula or King's Evil, Fever Sores, Spinal Diseases, Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy, Diabetes, Kidney Diseases, Gravel, and all Diseases peculiar to Males or Females, successfully treated. Warts, Corns, Bunions, Moles, Wens, Birth-Marks, Tumors &c., removed. Especial attention given to the treatment of Crooked Feet, Legs, Arms, Spine, Neck, and all other deformities. Cross Byes straightened, Hare-Lips curkl by an entirely new plan of oper- ating. Operations for Stone in the Bladder, Polypus, Strangulated Hernia, Fistula, or the cure of False and Crooked Joints, and all deformities of the Eye Lids, Nose, IJps, Neck &c., resulting from Burns or Wounds, performed upon the most scientific princi- ples. All Diseases" of the Eye and Ear treated with very great success. Especial attention given to the treatment of all diseases originating from the errors of misguided Youth. Patients from a distance, except in Surgical and Cancer cases, by sending a full des- cription of their symptoms, can have medicines sent by Mail or Express, and be treated at home. All letters promptly answered, and medicines ordered, immediately forwarded. The Doctor is a OTaduate with an experience of over fourteen years in the practice of medicine, twelve of which have been spent in Rome. N. B. — All persons troubled with Asthma should send for Dr. Kingsley's ASTHMA SPECIFIC, which is warranted to relieve any case or money refunded. Send for DR. KINGSLEY'S AGUE SPECIFIC, which is purely vegetable and never fails to cure. All troubled with a Cough of any kind should be sure to send for DR. KINGSLEY'S COUGH BALSAM, which cures as by magic.

In presenting to the pnblicthe initial number of the " Gazet- teer and Directory of Eensselaer County," the publisher desires to return his sincere thanks to all who have so kindly assisted in obtaining the valuable information which it contains, and without whose aid it would have been impossible to collect it in the brief space of time in which it is essential that all such works should be completed. Especially are our thanks due to the several editors of The Troy Times, Troy Whig, Troy Press and Lansinghurgh Gazette, for the uniform kindness which has been evinced in calling public attention to the author's eiforts ; and to the following persons, viz., E. W. Greenman, County Clerk, G. Robertson, Jr., Assessor Internal Eevenue, Troy ; W. L. Cottrell, School Commissioner, Poestenkill ; F. H. Stevens, Librarian of Troy Young Men's Association ; S. V. K Miller, Mechanicsville ; J. E. Knickerbocker, Schaghticoke ; Rev. A. H. Brush, Nassau ; and to many others in various parts of the County who have kindly volunteered their aid. The following works were consulted in its preparation : "French's Gazetteer of tlm State of New York ;" " Geological Report ;" " Documentary History of New York ;" " History of Rensselaerwyck ;" " Pictorial Field Book of the Revolution ;" " Reminiscences of Troy ;" " New York State Census Reports of 1865," and many other works. That errors may have occurred in so great a number of names and dates as are here given, is probable, and that names have been omitted that should have been inserted is quite certain. We can only say that we have exercised more than ordinary dili- gence and care in this difficult and complicated feature of book- making. Of such as feel aggrieved in consequence of error or# omission, we beg pardon, and ask the indulgence of the reader in marking such as were observed in the subsequent reading of • the proofs, and which are noted in the Errata, following the Introduction. The Map of the County was engraved with great care by Messrs. " Weed, Parsons & Co.," of Albany, and, it is believed, will prove a valuable acquisition to the work. The Advertisers represent some of the leading business men and firms of the County, and also many enterprising and reli- able dealers in other parts of the State. We most cheerfully commend them all to the patronage of those under whose obser- vation these pages may come. With thanks to friends generally, we leave our work to secure the favor which earnest endeavor ever wins from a discriminat- ing business public. . HAMILTON CHILD. 8 • ERRATA. ERE^T^.

E 333 PUBLISHER'S NOTICES. Troy Bell Foundry.— The old es- tablished and popular Troy Bell Foundry of JONES & CO., is one of th« numerous successful enterprises in Troy, N. Y., which have made it famous in the annals of in- dustry and ingenious works of art, one of the most important of which is the manu- facture of Bells. The Troy Foundry is one of the oldest in the country, and is com- plete in all its appointments for the found- ing of bells of all sizes, which have, per- haps, been more admired for their beauty of finish and perfectness of sound (in this lies the main utility of the bell) than any in the United States. Long experience and natural genius in this direction are brought to bear here to excel in the production of this instrument; the establishment exer- cises great care, and makes use of thorough and infallible tests, to produce none but perfect bells— indeed, they warrant every one they make. They have done much to reduce this business to scientific princi- ples, and bell founders are indebted to them for many of the most important and useful improvements in the processes and principles of casting bells. We could not fail to notice, during our visit to this found- ry, that in the proportions of metals used, the shape and general make of these bells, uniform care was exercised with each, and all made in accordance with the most ap- proved principles of science ; each instru- ment made to produce that uniformly smooth, soft, and melodius sound for which the Troy Bell is famous— nothing of that harshness and roughness which character- izes bells made of poor metal, and in dis- regard of all principles of science governing their manufacture. The size, thickness, weight and tone of every bell is regulated and tested by a diapason or scale, and each set to a certain key or pitch. The larger bells made by this firm all have that clear, far-reaching, and pleasing tone, so much admired in church bells, and which have made the name of these manufacturers so familiar and the bells so popular through- out the c6untry.' Our readers will be glad to know something of the history and ex- tent of this foundry. This foundry was established in 1852, by Jones & Hitchcock, who commenced the manufacture of bells. Both had had many years' experience in the founding business, and believed they could succeed in the es- tablishing of a foundry for this purpose, and set out with the determination to ex- cel, and have been successful in an eminent . deurce. The first bell founded was for the Fire Department in New York City, weigh- ing 12,000 pounds, which gave entire eaiis- faction, and was regarded one of the best bells ever cast. They entered upon the mauufacture of bells of all sizes, weighing from 15 to 14,000 pounds, and their busi- ness the fi'rst year amounted to over J;50,- 000. Their bells fittaiued a great populari- ty, and liavo maintained it since. They commenced in a small building, but, in 1854, their business had increased to such dimensions lis to demand more room for operations, and to meet this demand they erected a large three-story building, with foundry and shops. In August, 1854, it was burned down at the great fire in that year. It was a total loss to them, but they were not discouraged, and immediately commenced the erection of the buildings which they now occupy, and in two weeks from the time of the fire cast a bell in the new foundry which, as if by magic, had risen from the ashes of the old, for New York City, weighing 12,000 pounds, and since have cast bells for that city, each weighing from 10,000 to 12,000 pounds.— They made the large fire-alarm bell for Chicago, weighing 11,000 pounds, and have made them for almost every large city in the United States. The first complete chime of bells ever made in this country and placed in a church tower, were cast at this establish- ment for St. Stephen's Church, Philadel- phia. Itjconsisted of nine bells, largest 2838— total weight, 13,798 pounds; a large chime for the First Evangelist Church at Lancaster, Pa., consisting of eight bells, total weight, 8144 ; a chime of eleven bells for Christ's Church, Detroit; a chime of eleven bells for First Evang. Luth. Church, Harrisburgh, Pa. ; also a large number of others for churches in the United States and Canada. They have also manufactured a number of peals, consisting of from two to six bells. They have made all the large fire-alarm bells for New York City, which fact of itself constitutes a strong evidence of the superiority of their bells. The business is now in the hands of Octavous and Marcus R. Jones, the for- mer having charge of the mechanical de- partment, havinw been educated in the business, and fully acquainted with all its minutiiE ; the latter, of the books and out- side management, which is conducted with no less ability. Indeed, they had charge of the business previous to the death of their father, Eber Jones, (so well known as an iron founder, and who in connection with Mr. Hitchcock, established these works in 1852,) and will continue to maintain the high reputation of the foundry. They have inherited all the enterprise, genius, and skill of the father, and are, in every respect, worthy successors. In proof of the superiority of the bell manufactured here, we have only to cite the fact that it has borne off the first prize at the fairs where it has been in competi- tion with the bells from all parts of the world. It took the first premium at the Crystal Palace Fair, in New York, in 1854, receiving a gold medal at the Fair of the American Institute, held in Castle Garden, N. Y., in 1858; at several State Fairs, in various States of the Union, whenever it has been in competition. The prizes were awarded for best Church, Academy, Fire- Alarm, Locomotive, and other Bells* for best Chime and best Peal of Bells. They have testimonials of the excellence of their Bells from those who have purchased and used them. We saw these and a number of gold and silver prize medals. HildreWs Rotary Yoke.—T)i\6 establish- ment purchased the exclusive use of this celebrated Rotary Yoke, a patented im- COUNTY OFFICERS. 17 provement in the hanging of hells, that has decided merits. This method of hanging hells, consisting of a solid tapering shank, in place of the rods formeriy used, screwed tightly into the socket made to receive it in the yoke, adds materially to its dura- bility and strength, and increases and im- proves its tone. This valuable improve- ment is used exclusively by this firm. The bells made here are of the purest metal, and excel in depth and richness of tone on this account. The proprietors have been educated in this business, and pride themselves in the excellence of their workmanship and giving satisfaction to customers. For beauty of finish, sweet- ness of tone, and musical accord, we be- lieve these bells are unexcelled. Purchas- ers may rest assured they will be dealt with here honorably and fairly, receiving the best articles at the most reasonable rates. — Chicago Tribune. See advertisement on page 268. E. S.

The process by which they temper steel is a pe- culiar one, and as patented by Mr. Rey- nolds, is the result of over forty years labor. This gentleman always worked on the plan that tempering steel was simply changing it from a fibrous to a granular stale. He certainly has succeeded in pro- ducing a finer granulation (temper) than has ever before been produced. Messrs. Reynolds, Barber & Co. control the patents for these processes, and are applying them successfully in all their manufactures.— Their establishment is capable of turning out an immense amount of work, yet their orders are now, and have been for some months, accumulating far in advance of their present ability to supply ; a circum- stance which they will not long allow to be the case. We predict that the time is not far distant vi'hen all Mower and Reaper Factories and farmers will use their im- proved sections. See their advertisement on page 6.

Trial of Mowers and Reapers was held at Auburn in 1857, this admirable machine, which had just been brought out, surprised every body by its novelty and many excel- lencies, and won -the highest awards. At that time the valuable patents under which it was built were secured for several States by the enterprising firm which now con- tinues its manufacture, Adriance, Piatt & Co. At the second great trial of Mowers and Reapers, made by the N. Y. State Agri- cultural Society in 1866, the Buckeye again carried off the highest honors, show'ing that in the years' intervening it had not gone backward in the race for superiority. Every new suggestion is thoroughly weighed, improvements only are adopted. The verdict of the people is nearly as unani- mous as that of the learned and practical committees who made these awards, for its sales far exceed those of any other ma- chine in the sections supplied by Adriance, Piatt & Co. In fact they increase so jast, that the demand is almost always in ex- cess of the supply. The Self-Raking At- tachment on the Buckeye Machine has met with a success corresponding to that of the Mower, and has surpassed all others in the perfection of its operation. One great secret of the success of Adriance Piatt & Co., as manufacturers, has been in the con- scientious manner in which they have built their machines, and the great dura- bility of the Buckeye machine has been largely due to the excellence of the mate- rial used and the mechanical perfection of the workmanship.

THEIR BOHNDAKIES, AREA, PHYSICAL FEATURES, ETC. ■ ^ » »» ;ALA.SIi^ji, our new territory, recently purchased of Kussia, compre- hends all the north-west coast on the Pacific, and the adjacent islands north of the parallel of 50 degrees 40 minutes north, and the portion of the main- land west of the meridian (about 140° west) of Mount St. Elias. The area is computed at 481,376 square miles. The climate, although warmer than in the same latitude on the eastern coast, is too rigorous to admit of suc- cessful agricultural operations, and the chief value of the country and ad- jacent seas is derived from their fisheries and hunting grounds. The south- ern and central portions are mountainous ; the northern portion along the Arctic ocean is quite flat, nowhere rising more than fifteen or twenty feet above the sea. The population is estimated at about 80,000, mostly Esqui- meaux. ci.^IZOJVA. was organized by the Thirty- Seventh Congress, in the win- ter of 1863, out of the western half of New Mexico, the boundary between the two Territories being the 109th meridian (32d west from Washington,) and includes the greater portions of the valleys of Colorado and Gila, which two rivers drain its entire surface, with parts of Utah, New Mexico and Nevada, and yet convey, it is reported, a less volume of water to the sea than the Hudson at Albany.

Salt springs of great value are found within its limits. The western portion of the Territory embraces what is generally known as the " Sweet Water Mines." The climate is healthy, and the Territory is rapidly filling up with an. enterprising and hardy population.

CANCELLATION. In all cases where an adhesive stamp is used for denoting the stamp duty upon an instrument, the person using or affixing the same must write or imprint thereupon in ink the initials of his name, and the date (the year, month, and day) on which the same is attached or used. Each stamp should be separately cancelled. When stamps are printed upon checks, &c., so that in filling up the instrument, the face of the stamp is and must necessarily be writ- ten across, no other cancellation will be re- quired. All cancellation must be distinct and legi- ble, and except in the case of proprietary stamps from private dies, no method of cancellation which differs from that above described can be recognized as legal and sufficient. PENALTIES. A penalty of fifty dollars is imposed upon every person who makes, signs, or issues, or who causes to be made, signed, or issu- ed, any paper of any kind or description whatever, or who accepts, negotiates, or pays, or causes to be accepted, negotiated, or paid, any bill of exchange, draft, or or- der, or promissory note, for the payment of money, without the same being duly stamp- ed, or having thereupon an adhesive stamp for denoting the tax chargeable thereon, cancelled in the manner required by law, with intent to evade the provisions of the revenue act. A penalty of two hundred dollars is im- posed upon every person who pays, nego- tiates, or ofters in payment, or receives or takes in payment, any bill of exchange or order for the payment of any sum of money drawn or purporting to be drawn in a for- eign country, but payable in the United States, until the proper stamp has been af- fixed thereto, A penalty of fifty dollars is imposed upon every person who fraudulently makes use of an adhesive stamp to denote the duty re- quired by the revenue act, without eflectu- ally cancelling and obliterating the same in the manner required by law. Attention is particularly called to the fol- lowing extract from section 155, of the act of June 30, 1864, as amended by the act of July 13, 1866 : "If any person shall wilfully remove or cause to be removed, alter or cause to be al- tered, the cancelling or defacing marks on any adhesive stamp, with intent to use the same, or to cause the use of the same, after it shall have been used once, or shall know- ingly or wilfully sell or buy such washed or restored stamps, or offer the same for sale, or give or expose the same to any per- 38 STAMP DUTIES. son for use, or knowingly use the same or prepare the same with intent for the fur- ther nee thereof, or if any person shall knowingly and without lawful excuse (the proof whereof shall lie on the person accus- ed) have in his possession any washed, re- stored, or altered stamps, which have been removed from any vellum, parchment, pa- per, instrument or writing ; then, and in every such case, every person so offending, and every person knowingly and wilfully aiding, abetting, or assisting in committing any such offence as aforesaid, shall, on con- viction thereof, * * * be punished by a line not exceeding one thousand dollars, or by imprisonment and coniinement to hard labor not exceeding five years, or both, at the discretion of the court." It is not lawful to record any instrument, document, or paper required by law to be stamped, or any copy thereof, unless a stamp or stamps of the proper amoimt have been affixed and cancelled in the manner required by law ; and such instrument or copy and the record thereof are utterly null and void, and cannot be used or admitted as evidence in any court until the defect has been cured as provided in section 158. All willful violations of the law should be reported to the United States District Attor- ney within and for the district where they are committed. GENEKAL REMARKS. Revenue stamps may be used indiscrimi- nately upon any of the matters or things enumerated in Schedule B, except proprie- tary and playing card stamps, for which a special use has Deen provided. Postage stamps cannot be used in pay- ment of the duty chargeable on instm- ments. The law does not designate which of the paTties to an instrument shall furnish the necessary stamp, nor does the Commission- er of Internal Revenue assume to determine that it shall be supplied by one party rather than by another ; but if an instrument sub- ject to stamp duty is issued without Imving the necessary stamps affixed thereto, it can- not be recorded, or admitted, or used in ev- idence, in any court, until a legal stamp or stamps, denoting the amount of tax, shall have been affixed as prescribed by law, and the person who tlaua issues it is liable to a penalty, if he omits the stamps with an in- tent to evade the provisions of the internal revenue act. The first act imposing a stamp tax upon certain specified instruments tooli eftect, so far as said tax is concerned, October 1, 1862. The impression which seems to prevail to some extent, that no stamps are required upon any instruments issued in the States lately in insurrection, prior to the surren- der, or prior to the establishment of collec- tion districts there, is erroneous. Instruments issued in those States since October 1, 1802, are subject to the same tax- es as similar ones issued at the same time in the other States. No stamp is necessary upon an instrument executed prior to October 1, 1SG2, to make it admissible in evidence, or to entitle it to record. Certificates of loan in which there shall appear any written or printed evidence of an amount of money to be paid on demand, or at a time designated, are subject to stamp duty as "promissory notes." When two or more persons join in the ex- ecution of an instrument, the stamp to which the instrument is liable under the law, may be affixed and cancelled by either of them ; and "when more than one signature is affix- ed to the same paper, one or more stamps may be affixed thereto, representing the whole amount of the stamp requirecl for such signatures." No stamp is required on any warrant of attorney accompanying a bond or note, when such bond or note has affixed thereto the stamp or stamps denoting the duty re- quired ; and, whenever any bond or note is secured by mortgage, but one stamp duty is required on such papers— such stamp duty being the highest rate required for such in- struments, or either of them. In such case a note or memorandum of the value or de- nomination of the stamp affixed should be made upon the margin or in the acknowl- edgement of the instnunent which is not stamped. Particular attention is called to the change in section 154, by striking out the words "or used ;" the exemption thereun- der is thus restricted to documents, &c., issued by the officers therein named. Also to the changes in sections 152 and 158, by inserting the words "and cancelled in the manner required by law." The acceptor or acceptors of any bill of exchange, or order for the payment of any sum of money, drawn or purporting to be drawn in any foreign country, but payable in the United States, must, before paying or accepting the same, place thereupon a stamp indicating the duty. It is only upon conveyances of realty sold that conveyance stamps are necessary. A deed of real estate made mthout valuable consideration need not be stamped as a conveyance ; but if it contains covenants, such, for instance, as a covenant to warrant and defend the title, it should be stamped as an agreement or contract. When a deed purporting to be a convey- ance of realty sold, and stamped accordiug- 1}', is inoperative, a deed of confirmation, made simply to cure the defect, requires no stamp. In such case, the second deed should contain a recital of the facts, and should show the reasons for its execution. Partition deeds between tenants in com- mon, need not be stamped as conveyances, inasmuch as there is no sale of realty, but merely a marking out, or a defining, of the boundaries of the part belonging "to each ; but where money or other valnalne consid- eration is paid by one co-tenant to aimther for equality of partition, there is a sale to the extent of such consideration, and the conveyance, by the party receiving it, should be stamped accordingly. A conveyance of lands sold for unpaid taxes, issued since August 1, 180(i, by tlie officers of any county, town, or other mu- STAMP DUTIES. 39 Dicipal corporation in tlie discharge of their strictly ofacial duties, is exempt from stamp tax. A conveyance of realty sold, suhject to a mortgage, should be stamped according to the consideration, or the value of the prop- erty unencumbered. The consideration m such case is to be found by adding the amount paid for the equity of redemption to the mortgage debt. The fact that one part of the consideration is paid to the mortgagor and the other part to the mort- gagee does not change the liability of the conveyance. The stamp tax upon a mortgage is based upon the amount it is given to secure. The fact that the value of the property mortgag- ed is less than that amount, and that conse- quently the security is only partial, does not change the liability of the instrument. When, therefore, a second mortgage is giv- en to secure the payment of a sum of mon- ey partially secured hy a prior mortgage up- on other property, or when two mortgages upon separate property are given at the same time to secure the payment of the sn.me sum, each should be stamped as though it were the only one. A mortgage given to sectire a surety irom loss, or given for any purpose whatever, other than as security for the payment of a definite and certain sum of money, is taxa- able only as an agreement or contract. The stamp duty upon a lease, agreement, memorandum, or coatract for the hire, use, or rent of any land, tenement, or portion thereof, is based upon the annual rent or rental value of the property leased, and the duty is the same whether the lease be for one year, for a term of years, or for the fractional part of a year only. Upon every assignment or transfer of a mortgage, a stamp tax is required equal to that imposed upon a mortgage for the amount remaining unpaid ; this tax is re- quired upon every such transfer in writing, Vi'hether there is a sale of the mortgage or not ; but no stamp is necessary upon the endorsement of a negotiable instrument, even though the legal effect of such indorse- ment is to transfer a mortgage by which the instrument is secured. An assignment of a lease within the mean- ing and intent of Schedule B, is an assign- ment of the leasehold, or of some portion thereof, by the lessee, or by some person claiming by, from, or under him ; such an assignment as subrogates the assignee to the rights, or some portion of the rights, of the lessee, or of the person standing in his place. A transfer by the lessor of his part of a lease, neither giving nor purporting to give a claim to the leasehold, or to any part thereof, but simply a right to the rents, &c., is subject to stamp tax as a contract or agreement only. The stamp tax upon a fire insurance policy is based upon the premiiim. Deposit notes taken by a mutual fire in- surance company, not as payment of pre- mium nor as evidence of indebtedness therefor, but to be used simply as a basis upon which to make rateable assessments to meet the losses incurred by the company. should not be reckoned as premium in de- termining the amount of stamp taxes upon the policies. When a policy of insurance properly stamped has been issued and lost, no stamp is necessary upon another issued by the same company to the same party, covering the same property, time, &c., and designed simply to supply the loss. The second policy should recite the loss of the first. An instrument which operates as the re- newal of a policy of insurance, is subject to the same stamp tax as the policy. When a policy of insurance is issued for a certain time, whether it be for one year only or for a term of years, a receipt for premium, or any other instrument which has the legal effect to continue the contract and extend: its operation beyond that time, re- quires the same amount of revenue stamps as the policy itself; but such a receipt as is usually given for the payment of the monthly, quarterly, or annual premi^^m, is not a renewal within the meaning of the statute. The payment simply prevents the policy from expiring, by reason of non-per- formance of its conditions ; a receipt given for such a payment requires a two-cent stamp, if the amount received exceeds twenty dollars, and a two-cent stamp only. When, however, the time of payment has passed, and a tender of the premium is not sufficient to bind the company, but a new policy or a new contract in some form, with the mutuality essential to every contract, becomes necessary between the insurer and the insured, the same amount of stamps should be used as that required upon the original policy. A permit issued by a life insurance com- pany changing the terms of a policy as to travel, residence, occupation, &c., should be stamped as a contract or agreement. A bill single or a bill obligatory, i. e., an instrument in the form of a promissory note, under seal, is subject to stamp duty as written or printed evidence of an amount of money to be paid on demand or at a time designated, at the rate of five cents for each one hundred dollars or fractional part thereof. A waiver of protest, or of demand and notice, written upon negotiable paper and signed by the indorser, is an agreement, and requires a flve-cent stamp. A stamp duty of twenty-five cents is im- posed upon the "protest of every note, bill of exchange, check or draft," and upon every marine protest. If several notes, bills of exchange, drafts, &c., are protest- ed at the same time and all attached to one and the same certificate, stamps should be aflixed to the amotmt of twenty-five cents for each note, bill, draft, &c., thus protest- ed. When, as is generally the case, the cap- tion to a deposition contains other certifi- cates in addition to the jurat to the affida- vit of the deponent, such as a certificate that the parties were or were not notified, that they did or did not appear, that they did or did not object, &c., it is subject to a stamp duty of five cents. When an attested copy of a vn-it or other 40 STAMP DUTIES. process is used by a sheriff or other person in making personal service, or in attaching property, a five-cent stamp should be affix- ed to the certificate of attestation. A marriage certificate issued by the offi- ciating clergyman or magistrate, to be re- turned to any officer of a State, county, city, town, or other municipal corporation, to constitute part of a public record, requires no stamp ; but if it is to be retained by the parties, a five-cent stamp should be af- fixed. The stamp tax upon a bill of sale, by which any ship or vessel, or any part there- of, is conveyed to or vested in any other person or persons, is at the same rate as that imposed upon conveyances of realty sold ; a bill of sale of any other personal property should be stamped as a contract or agreement. An assignment of real.or personal prop- erty, or of both, for the benefit of creditors, should be stamped as an agreement or con- tract. Written or printed assignments of agree- ments; bonds, notes not negotiable, and of all other instruments the assignments of which are not particularly specified in the foregoing schedule, should be stamped as agreements. No stamp is necessary upon the registry of a judgment, even though the registry is such in Its legal effect as to create a lien which operates as a mortgage upon the property of the judgment debtor. When a "power of attorney or proxy for voting at any election for officers of any incorporated company or society, except religious, charitable, or literary societies, or public cemeteries," is signed by sever- al stockholders, owning separate and dis- tinct shares, it is, in its legal effect, the separate instrument of each, and requires stamps to the amount of ten cents for each and every signature; one or more stamps may be used representing the whole amount required. A notice from landlord to tenant to quit possession of premises requires no stamp. A stamp tax is imposed upon every "manifest for custom-house entry or clear- ance of the cargo of any ship, vessel, or steamer for a foreign port." The amount of this tax in each case depends upon the registered tonnage of the vessel. If a vessel clears in ballast and has no cargo whatever, no stamp is necessary; but if she has any, however small the amount —a stamp should be used. A bond to convey real estate requires stamps to the amount of twenty-five cents. The stamp duty upon the probate of a will, or upon letters of administration, is based upon the sworn or declared value of all the estate and effects, real, personal, and mixed, undiminished by the debts of the estate for or in respect of which such probate or letters are applied for. When the property belonging to the es- tate of a person deceased, lies under dif- ferent jurisdictions and it becomes neces- sary to take out letters in two or more places, the letters should be stamped ac- cording to the value of all the property, real, personal, and mixed, for or in respect of which the particular letters in each case are issued. Letters de bonis non should be stamped according to the amount of property re- maining to be administered upon thereun- der, regardless of the stamps upon the orig- inal letters. A mere copy of an instrument is not sub- ject to stamp duty unless it is a certified one, in which case a five-cent stamp should be affixed to the certificate of the person attesting it • but when the instrument is executed and issued in duplicate, triplicate, &c., as in the case of a lease of two or more parts, each part has the same legal effect as the other, and each should be stamped as an original.

Infallible Rules for Detecting Counterfeit or Spurious Bank ISTotes. Rule let.— Examine the shading of the letters in title of Bank called lathewoek, which in genuine notes presents an even, straight, light and silky appearance, gen- erally so fine and smooth as to appear to be all in one solid, pale body. In the counter- feit the lines are coarse and irregular, and in many of the longer lines breaks will be perceived, thus presenting a very inferior finish in comparison to genuine work. 2d.— Observe the dies, circles and ovals in the genuine; they are composed of a network of lines, which, by crossing each other at certain angles, produce an endless variety of figures ; see the one cent stamp ATTACHED. The fine line alone is the unit which enables you to detect spurious work. In the counterfeit, the represented white lines are coarse, irregular, and cross each other in a confused, irregular manner, thus producing blurred and imperfect figures. 3d.— Examine the form and features of all human figures on the note. In the gen- uine, the texture of the skin is represented by fine dots and lines intermixed. In the eyes, the pupil is distinctly visible, and the white clearly seen ; the nose, mouth and chin, well formed, natural and expressive ; the lips are slightly pouting, and the chin well thrown out; andthe delicate shading of the neck perfectly harmonizes with the rest of the figure. Observe the fingers and toes ; they should be clearly and accurately defined. The hair of the head should show the fine strands and present a natural ap- pearance. The folds of the drapery of hu- man figures should lay natural and present a fine, finished appearance. In the counter- feit the female figure does not bear the natural prominence in outlines; observe, the eyes and shading surrounding does not present the lifelike appearance It should. The fingers and toes are not properly and proportionately defined ; the hair does not boar that soft and finished appearance as in the genuine. 4th. — Examine the imprint or engraver's names in the evenness and shape of the fine letters. Counterfeits never bear the imprint perfect. This rule should be strict- ly observed, as it is infallible in detecting counterfeits. 5th.— In the genuine note the landscapes are well finished • trees and shrubs are neatly drawn ; the limbs well proportioned, and the foliage presenting a fine natural appearance ; clear sky is formed of fine parallel lines, and when clouds or heavy skies appear, they cross each other, and bear a soft, smooth and natural appear- ance. The perspective, showing a view of the surrounding country, is always clear and distinct. The small figures in the background are always plainly seen, and their outlines and general character re- cognized. Ships are well defined and the canvass has a clear texture ; railroad cars are very accurately delineated ; in examin- ing a train observe carefully the car most distant. In the counterfeit the landscape is usually poorly executed ; the leaves of trees poorly and unnaturally defined. — The Imes representing still water are scratchy rather than parallel, the sky is represented generally in like manner, and where rolling clouds are to be seen, the unnatural efiect is obvious. Domestic animals are generally poorly executed, particularly the head and limbs ; the eyes are seldom clearly defined. Ships are poorly drawn, the texture of the canvass coarse and inferior in style of workman- ship, thus giving an artificial appearance. Railroad cars are also poorly executed ; the car farthest from the eye is usually the most imperfect. The perspective is always imperfect, the figures in the background can seldom be recognized. 6th.— Bills altered from a smaller to a higher denomination, can readily be de- tected by a close observer, in consequence of the striking difl"erence between the parts which have been extracted and the rest of the note. This difterence is readily per- ceived in the lack of color, body and finish of the dye; we have seen bills where the surrounding shading in altered dies was HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS. 45 too dark, but from the back or finish of the white lines you have a sure test. Again observe particularly the vcords "•Five" or " Ten Dollars " as the case may be, denot- ing the denomination of the note ; the parallel outlines and shading (if any) are coarse and imperfect. Alterations are fre- quently made by pasting a greater denomi- nation over a smaller, l)ut by holding the bill up to the light, the fraud vcill be per- ceived. Another method resorted to is to cut out the figures in the dies as well as the words one dollar, or the words two or three as the case may be, and with a sharp eraser, scrape down the ends and also the edges of the pieces to be inserted ; when the pieces thus prepared are afiixed they are hardly perceivable ; but by passing the note through the hand, so as to feel the die both with the finger and thumb at the same time, the fraud will be de- tected by the stiffness of the outer edges, " occasioned by the gum or method adopted" in affixing the parts. The letter S should always be examined, as in many alterations it is pasted or stamped at the end of the word " dollar ;" and even when stamped there, the carrying out of the out- lines for its shading will readily show the fraud. Bills of broken banks are frequent- ly altered by extracting the name of bank,, state and town ; they may readily be de- tected by observing first the state, second the title or name of the bank, third the town or location. General Kemakks rN Eefeeence to Counterfeits. — The paper on which they are printed is generally of a very inferior quality, with less body, finish and tough- ness than bank note paper has. The ink generally lacks the rich luster of the gen- uine ; the red letters and figures are gen- erally imperfect, and the ink does not pre- sent the Vermillion hue as it should. The printing is generally inferior, usually ex- hibiting specks of white in the most promi- nent letters. The date and filling up, and the President's and Cashier's names are generally written by the same person, although in many instances they present a different appearance. There are bills in circulation bearing either genuine dies or vignettes ; but upon close examination you will be enabled to detect any spurious bill, whether counterfeit or altered, by the instructions here given, if persevered in for a short time. We beg to suggest, if time will admit, the learner should examine minutely every bill he receives. A pow- erful pocket magnifying glass, which can be purchased for from fifty cents to one dol- lar at any of the opticians, will greatly en- able you to see and comprehend the difl'er- ence between genuine and spurious work HOW TO SUCCEED IE BUSINESS. What will my readers give to know how to get rich ? Now, I will not vouch that the following rules will enable every per- son who may read them to acquire wealth ; but this I will answer for, that if ever a man does grow rich by honest means, and retains his wealth for any length of time, he must practice upon the principles laid down in the following essay. The re- marks are not original with me, but I strongly commend tnem to the attention of every young man, at least as affording the true secret of success in attaining wealth. A single perusal of such an essay at an impressible moment, has sometimes a very wonderful effect upon the disposi- tion and character. Fortune, they say, is a fickle dame— full of her freaks and caprices ; who blindly distributes her favors without the slightest discrimination. So inconstant, so waver- ing is she represented, that her most faith- ful votaries can place no reliance on her promises. Disappointment, they tell us, is the lot of those who make offerings at her shrine. Now, all this is a vile slander upon the dear blind lady. Although wealth often appears the result of mere accident, or a fortunate concur- rence of favorable circumstances without any exertion of skill or foresight, yet any man of sound health and unimpaired mind may become wealthy, if he takes the prop- er steps. Foremost in the list of requisites are honesty and strict integrity in every trans- action of life. Let a man have the reputa- tion of being fair and upright in his deal- ings, and he will possess the confidence of all who know him. Without these qualities every other merit will prove unavailing. Ask concerning a man, " Is he active and capable?" Yes. "Industrious, temper- ate and regular in his habits f "—Oh yes. "Is he honest? Is he trustworthy?" Why, as to that, I am sorry to say that he is not to be trusted ; he needs watching ; he is a little tricky, and will take an undue advantage, if he can. "Then I will have nothing to do vrtth him," will be the in 46 BOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS. variable reply. Why, then, is honesty the best policy ? Because, without it, you will get a bad name, and everybody will shun you. A character for knavery will prove an in- surmountable obstacle to success in al- most every undertaking. It will be found that the straight line is, in business, as in geometry, the shortest. In a word, it is almost impossible for a dishonest man to acquire wealth by a regular process of bus- iness, becaitse be is shunned as a depreda- tor upon society. Needy men are apt to deviate from the rule of integrity, under the plea that ne- cessity knows no law ; they might as well add that it knows no shame. The course is suicidal, and by destroying all coniidence, ever keeps them immured in poverty, although they may possess every other quality for success in the world. Punctuality, which is said to be the soul of business, is another important element in the art of money getting. The man known to be scrupulously exact in the ful- fillment of his engagements, gains the confidence of all, and may command all the means he can use with advantage ; whereas, a man careless and regardless of his promises in money matters will have every purse closed against him. Therefore be prompt in your payments. Next, let us consider the advantages of a cautious circumspection in our inter- course with the world. Slowness of be- lief and a proper distrust are essential to success. The credulous and confiding are ever the dupes of knaves and impostors. Ask those who have lost their property how it happened, and you will find in most cases that it has been owing to mis- placed confidence. One has lost by en- dorsing, another by crediting, another by false representations ; all of which a little more foresight and a little more dis- trust would have prevented. In the af- fairs of this world men are not saved by faith, but by the want of it. Judge of men by what they do, not by what they say. Believe in looks rather than words. Observe all their movements. Ascertain their motives and their ends. Notice what they say or do in their un- guarded moments, when under the influ- ence of excitement. The passions have been compared to tortures which force men to reveal their secrets. Before trusting a man, before putting it in his power to cause you a loss, possess yourself of every available information relative to him. Learn his history, his habits, inclinations and propensities ; his reputation for honor, industry, frugality and punctuality; his prospects, resources, supports, advantages and disadvantages ; his intentions and mo- tives of action; who are his friends and enemies, and what are his good or bad qual- ities. You may learn a man's good qualities and advantages from his friends— his bad qualities and disadvantages from his ene- mies. Make due allowance for exaggeration in both. Finally, examine carefully before engaging in anything, and act with energy afterwards. Have the hundred eyes "of Argus beforehand, and the hundred hands of Briarius afterwards. Order and system in the management of business must not be neglected. Nothing contributes more to dispatch. Have a place for everything and everything in its place ; a time for everything, and every- thing in its time. Do first what presses most, and having determined what is to b 3 done, and how it is to be done, lose no time in doing it. Without this method all is hurry and'confusion, little or nothing is accomplished, and business is attended to with neither pleasure nor profit. A polite, aflable deportment is recom- mended. Agreeable manners contribute powerfully to a man's success. Take two men, possessing equal advantages in every other respect, but let one be gentlemanly, kind, obliging and conciliating in his man- ners ; the other harsh, rude and disobligiuj-; and the one will become rich, while the other will starve. We are now to consider a very important principle in the business of money-getting, namely — Industry — persevering, indefati- gable attention to business. Persevering diligence is the Philosopher's stone, which turns everything to gold. Constant, regu- lar, habitual and systematic application to business, must in time, if properly directed, produce great results. It must lead to wealth, with the same certainty that pov- erty follows in the train of idleness and inattention. It has been truly remarked that lie who follows his amusements in- stead of his business, will, in a short time, have no business to follow. The art of money-saving is an important part of the art of money-getting. Without frugality no one can become rich ; with it, few would be poor. Those who consume as fast as they produce, are on the road to ruin. As most of the poverty we meet with grows out of idleness and extrava- gance, so most large fortunes have been the result of habitual industry and frugali- ty. The practice of economy is as neces- sary in the expenditure of time as of money. They say if " we take care of the pence the pounds will take care of them- selves." So, if we take care of the minutes, the days will take care of them- selves. The acquisition of wealth demands as much self-denial, and as many sacrifices of present gratification, as the practice of virtue itself Vice and poverty proceed, in some degree, from the same sources, namely— tne disposition to sacrifice the future to the present ; the inability to fore- go a small present pleasure for great future advantages. Men fail of fortune in this world, as they fail of happiness in the world to come, simply because they are un- willing to deny themselves momentary en- jo)'ments for the sake of permanent Inture happiness. Every large city is filled with pcrsonr-. who, in order to support the appearance of wealth, constantly live beyond their in- come, and make up the deficiency by contracting debts wliich are never paid. Others, there are, the mere drones of so- HOW TO SECUBE THE PUBLIC LANDS. 47 ciety, who pass their dayp in idleness, and subsist by pirating on the hives of the in- dustrious. Many who run a short-lived career of splendid beggary, could they be but persuaded to adopt a system of rigid economy for a few years, nii^ht pass the remainder of their daj's in affluence. But no ! They must keep up appearances, tliey must live like other folks. Their debts accumulate; their credit fails ; they are harassed by duns, and be- sieged by constables and sheriff. In this extremity, as a last resort, they submit to a shamefiil dependence, or engage in crim- inal practices which entail hopeless wretch- edness and infamy on themselves and families. Stick to the business in which you are regularly employed. Let speculators make thousands in a year or a day ; mind your own regular trade, never turning from it to the right hand or to the left. If you are a merchant, a professional man, or a me- chanic, never buy lots 'or stocks, unless you have surplus money which you wish to invest. Your own business you under- stand as well as other men ; but other peo- ple's business you do not understand. Let your business be some one which is useful to the community. All such occu- pations possess the elements of profit in themselves. How to Secure the Public Lands, OS THE ENTRY OF THE SAME IINDEE THE PEE-BMPTION AND HOMESTEAD LAWS. The following circular gives all necessary information as to the procedure necessary in purchasing and securing the public lands : Department of the Intebioe, ) Gen'l Lai^d Ofi-ice, July 19, 1865. ) Numerous questions having arisen as to the mode of procedure to purchase public lands, or acquire title to the same by bounty land locations, by pre-emptions or by home- stead, this circular is communicated for the information of all concerned. In order to acquire title to public lands the following steps must be taken : 1. Application must be made to the Reg- ister of the district land office in which the land desired may be situated. A list of all the land offices in the United States is furnished by the Department, with the seats of the different offices, where it is the duty of the Register and Receiver to be in attendance, and give proper facilities and information to persons desirous of obtaining lands. The minimum price of ordinary public lands is $1,25 per acre. The even or re- served sections falling within railroad grants are increased to double the minimum price, being $2,50 per acre. Lands once offered at public sale, and not afterwards kept out of market by reserva- tion, or otherwise, so as to prevent free competition, may be entered or located. 2. By the applicant filing with the Regis- ter his written application describing the tract, with its ai-ea ; the Register will then certify to the receiver whether the land is vacant, with its price ; and when found to be so, the applicant must pay that price per acre, or may locate the same with land warrant, and thereafter the Receiver will give him a "duplicate receipt," which he IS required to surrender previous to the delivery to him of the patent, which may be had either by application for it to the Register or to the General Land Office. 3. If the tract has not been offered at public sale it is not liable to ordinary pri- vate entry, but may be secured by a party legally qualified, upon his compliance with the requirements of the pre-emption laws of 4th September, 1841, and 3d March, 1843; and after such party shall have made ac- tual settlement for such a length of time as will show he design's it for his perma- nent home, and is acting' in good faith, building a house and residing therein, he may proceed to the district land office, es- tablish his pre-emption claim according to law, by proving his actual residence and cultivation, and showing that he is other- wise within the purview of these acts.— Then he can enter the land at $1,25, either in cash or with bounty land warrant, unless the premises should be $2,50 acre lands. In that case the whole purchase-money can be paid in cash, or one-half in cash, the residue with a bounty land warrant. 4. But if parties legally qualified desire to obtain title under the Homestead Act of 20th May, 1862, they can do so on com- 48 LAW MAXIMS. plying with, the Department Circular, dated 30th October, 1862. 5. The law confines Homestead entries to surveyed lands ; and althouj^h, in cer- tain States and Territories noted'in the sub- joined list, pre-emptors may go on land be- fore survey, yet they can only establish their claim after return of survey, but must file their pre-emption declaration within three months after receipt of official plat, at the local land-office where the settlement was made before survey. Where, however, it was made after survey, the claimant must file within three months after date of set- tlement; and where actual residence and cultivation have been long enough to show that the claimant has made the land his permanent home, he can establish his claim and pay for the same at any time before the date of the public sale of lands within the range in which his settlement may fall. 6. All unoffered surveyed lands not ac- qxiired under pre-emption, homestead, or otherwise, under express legal sanction, must be offered at public sale under the President's Proclamation, and struck ofi' to the highest bidder, as required by act of April 24, 1820. J. M. EDMUNDS, Commissioner General Land Office. LAW MAXIMS. 1. A promise of a debtor to give " satis- factory security" for the pajonent of a por- tion of his debt, is a sufficient considera- tion for a release of the residue by his creditor. 2. Administrators are liable to account for interest on funds in their hands, al- though no profit shall have been made upon them, unless the exigencies of the estate rendered it prudent that they should hold the funds thus uninvested. 3. Any person who voluntarily becomes an agent for another, and in that capacity obtains information to which as a stranger he could have had no access, is bound in subsequent dealing with his principal, as purchaser of the property that formed the sul)ject of his agency, to communicate such information. 4. When a house is rendered untenanta- ble in consequence of improvements made on the adjoinina; lot, the owner of such cannot recover damages, because it is pre- sumed that he had knowledge of the ap- proaching danger in time to protect him- self from it. 5. Wlien a merchant ship is abandoned by order of the master, for the purpose of saviu": life, and a part of the crew subse- queutly meet the vessel so abandoned and bring her safe into port, they will be enti- tled to salvage. 6. A person who has been led to sell goods by means of false pretenses, cannot recover them from one who has purchased them in good faith from the fraudulent vendor. 7. An agreement by the holder of a note to give tne principal debtor time for pay- ment, without depriving himself of the right to sue, does not discharge the surety. 8. A seller of goods who accepts, at the time of sale, the note of a third party, not endorsed by the buyer, in payment, can- not in case the note is not paid, hold the buyer responsible for the value of the goods. 9. A day-book copied from a "blotter" in which charges are first made, will not be received in evidence as a book of origi- nal entries. 10. Common carriers are not liable for extraordinary results of negligence that could not have been foreseeli by ordinary skill and foresight. 11. A bidder at a Sheri3''s sale may re- tract his bid at any time before the prop- erty is knocked down to him, whatever may be the conditions of the sale. 12. Acknowledgment of debt to a stran- ger does not preclude the operation of the statute. 13. The fruits and grass on the farm or garden of an intestate descend to the heir. 14. Agents are solely liable to their prin- cipals. 15. A deposit of money in bank by a hus- band, in the name of his wife, survives to her. LAW MAXI3fS. 49 16. Money paid on Sunday contracts may be recovered. 17. A debtor may give preference to one creditor over another, unless fraud or special legislation can be proved. 18. A court cannot give judgment for a larger sum than, that specified in the ver- dict. 19. Imbecility on the part of either husband or wife, invalidates the mar- riage. 20. An action for malicious prosecution will lie, though nothing further was done than suing out warrants. 31. An agreement not to continue the practice of a profession or business in any specified town, if the party so agreeing has received a consideration for the same, is valid. 23. When A consigns goods to B to sell on commission, and B delivers them to C, in payment of his own antecedent debts, A can recover their value. 23. A finder of property is compelled to make diligent inquiry for the owner there- of, and to restore the same. If, on finding such property, he attempts to conceal such fact, he may be prosecuted for larceny. 24. A private person may obtain an in- junction to prevent a public mischief by which he is afiected in common with others. 2.5. Any person interested may obtain an injunction to restrain the State or a munici- pal corporation from maintaining a nuisance on its lands. 26. A discharge under the insolvent laws of one State will not discharge the insol- vent from a contract made with a citizen of another State. 27. To prosecute a party with any other motive than to bring him to justice, is malicious prosecution, and actionable as such. 28. Ministers of the gospel, residing in any incorporated town, are not exempt from jury, military, or fire service. 29. When a person contracts to build a house, and is prevented by sickness from finishing it, he can recover for the part per- formed, if such part is beneficial to the other party. 30. In a suit for enticing away a man's wife, actual proof of the marriage is not ne- cessary. Cohabitation, reputation, and the admission of marriage by the parties, are sufiicient. 31. Permanent erections and fixtures, made by a mortgagor after the execution of the mortgage upon land conveyed by it, be- come a part of the mortgaged premises. 32. When a marriage is denied, and plain- tiff has given suflScient evidence to estab- lish it, the defendant cannot examine the wife to disprove the marriage. 33. The amount of an express debt can- not be enlarged by application. 34. Contracts for advertisements in Sun- day newspapers cannot be enforced. 35. A seller of goods, chattels, or other property, commits no fraud, in law, when he neglects to tell the purchaser of any flaws, defects, or unsoundness in the same. 36. The opinions of witnesses, as to the value of a dog that has been killed, are not admissible in evidence. The value of the animal is to be decided by the jury. 37. If any person puts a fence on or plows the land of another, he is liable for trespass whether the owner has sustained injury or not. 38. If a person, who is unable from ill- ness to sign his will, has his hand guided in making his mark, the signature is valid. 39. When land trespassed upon is occu- pied by a tenant, he alone can bring the action. 40. To say of a person, "If he does not come and make terms with me, I will make a bankrupt of him and ruin him," or any such threatening language, is actionable, without proof of special damage. 41. In an action for slander, the party making the complaint must prove the words alleged J other words of like meaning will not suflice. 42. In a suit of damans for seduction, proof of pregnancy, and the birth of a child, is not essential. It is sufficient if the ill- ness of the girl, whereby she was unable to labor,;was produced by shame for the seduc- tion ; and this is such a loss of service as will sustain the action. 43. Addressing to a wife a letter contain- ing matter defamatory to the character of her husband is a publication, and renders the writer amenable to damages. 44. A parent cannot sustain an action for any wrong done to a child, unless he has in- curred some direct pecuniary injury there- from in consequence of some loss of ser- vice or expenses necessarily consequent thereupon. 45. A master is responsible for an injury resulting from the negligence of his ser- vant, whilst driving his cart or carriage, provided the servant is at the time engaged in his master's business, even though the accident hajjpens in a place to which his master's business does not call him ; but if the journey of a servant be solely for a pur- pose of his own, and undertaken without the knowledge and consent of his master, the latter is not responsible. 46. An emigrant depot is not a nuisance in law. 47. A railroad track through the streets is not a nuisance in law. 50 LAW MAXIMS. 48. If an agreement upon which a party relies be oral only, it must be proved by evidence. But if the contract be reduced to writing, it proves itself; and now no evidence whatever is receivable for the purpose of varying the contract or affecting its obligations. The reasons are obvious. The law prefers written to oral evidence, from its greater precision and certainty, and because it is less open to fraud. And whore parties have closed a negotiation and reduced the result to writing, it is pre- sumed that they have written all they in- tended to agree to, and therefore, that what is omitted was finally rejected by them.— [Parsons. 49. Delivery of a htisband's goods by a wife to her adulterer, he. having knowledge that she has taken them without her hus- band's authority, is sufficient to sustain an indictment for larceny against the adul- terer. 50. The fact that the insurer was not 'in- formed of the existence of impending liti- gation, affecting the premises insured, at the time the insurance was effected, does not vitiate the policy. .51. The liability of an innkeeper is not conflued to personal baggage, but extends to all the property of the guest that he con- sents to receive. 52. Wfien a minor executes a contract, and pays money, or delivers property on the same, he cannot afterwards disaffirm such contract and recover the money, or prop- erty, unless he restores to the other party the consideration received from him for such money or property. 53. When a pei'son has, by legal inquisi- tion been found an habitual drunkard, he cannot^ even in his sober intervals, make contracts to bind himself or -his property, until the inquisition is removed. 54. Any person dealing with the repre- sentative of a deceased,person, is presumed, in law, to'be fully apprized of the extent of such representative's authority to act in behalf of such estate. 55. In an action against a railroad com- pany, by a passenger, to recover damages for injuries sustained on the road, it is not compulsory upon the plaintiff to prove ac- tual negligence in the defendants ; but it is obligatory on the part of the latter to prove that the injury was not owing to any fault or negligence of theirs. 5(1. A guestiis a competent witness, in an action between himself and an inn-keeper, to prove the character and value of lost personal baggage. Money in a trunk, not exceeding the amount reasonably required by the traveler to deft-ay the expenses of the jonrucy which he has undertaken is a part of his baggage ; and in case of its loss, while at any inn, the plaintiff may prove its amount by his own testimony. 57. The deed of a minor is not absolutely void. The court is authorized to judge, from the iuHtrumeut, whether it is void or not, according to its terms being favorable or unfavorable ,to the interests of the minor. 58. A married woman can neither sue nor be sued on any contract made by her dur- ing her marriage, except in an action relat- ing to her individual property. The action must be commenced either by or against her husband. It is only when an action is brought on a contract made by her be- fore her marriage, that she is to "be joined as a co-plaintiir, or defendant, with her hus- band. 59. Any contract made with a person ju- dicially cleclared a lunatic is void. 60. Money paid voluntarily in any trans- action, with a knowledge of the facts, can- not be recovered. 61. In all cases of special contract for ser- vices, _ except in the case of a minor, the plaintiff' can recover only the amount stip- ulated in the contract. 62. A wife is a competent witness with her husband, to prove the contents of a lost trunk, or when a party. 63. A wife cannot be convicted of receiv- ing stolen goods when she received thein of Tier husband. 64. Insurance against fire, by lightning or otherwise, does not cover loss by lightning when there is no combustion. 65. Failure to prove plea of justification, in a case of slander, aggravates the offence. 66. It is the agreement of the parties to sell by sample that constitutes a sale by sample, not the mere exhibition of a si^eci- men of the goods. 67. An agent is liable to his principals for loss caused by his misstatements, tho' unintentional. 68. Makers of promissory notes given in advance for premiums on policies of insur- ance, thereafter to be taken, are liable there- on. 69. An agreement to pay for procuring an appointment to office is void. 70. An attorney may plead the statute of limitations, when sued by a client for mon- ey which he has collected and failed to pay over. 71. Testimony given by a deceased wit- ness on first trial, is not required to be re- peated verbatim on the second. 72. A person entitling himself to a reward offered for lost property, has a lien upon the property for the reward ; but only when a definite reward is offered. 73. Confession by s, prisoner must be vol- untarily made, to constitute evidence against him. 74. The defendant in a suit must be serv- ed with process; but service of such pro- cess upon his wife, even in his absence from the State, is not, iu the absence of statuto- ry provisions, sufficient. LAW MAXBfS. 51 75. The measure of damages in trespass foi' cutting timber, is its value as a ctiattel oii the land where it was felled, and not the market price of the lumber manufactured. 76. To support an indictment for mali- cious mischief in killing an animal, mal- ice towards its owner must be shown, not merely passion excited against the animal itself. 77. No action can be maintained against a slieriff for omitting to account for mouej' olitained upon an execution within a reas- onable time. He has till the return day to render such account. 78. An interest in the profits of an enter- prise, as profits, renders the party hold- ing it a partner in the enterprise, and mrt'kes him presumptiyely liable to share any loss. 70. Males can marry at fourteen, and fe- males at twelve years of age. 80. All cattle found at large upon any pub- lic road, can be driven by any person to the public pound. 81. Any dog chasing, barking, or other- wise threatening a passer-by in any street, lane, road, or other public thoroughfare, may be lawfully killed for the same. 83. A written promise for the payment of such amount as may come into the hands of the promisor, is held to be an instru- ment in writing for the payment of money. 8:5. The declaration of an agent is not ad- missible to establish the fact of agency. — But when other proper evidence fs given, tending to establish the fact of agency, it is not error to admit the declarations of the agent, accompanying acts, though tend- ing to show the capacity in which he act- ed. When evidence is competent in one respect and incompetent in another, it is the duty of the court to admit it, and con- trol its effects by suitable instructions to the jury. 84. The court has a general power to re- move or suspend an attorney for such im- moral conduct as rendered him unworthy of confidence in his official capacity. 85. Bankruptcy is pleadable in bar to all actions and in all courts, and this bar may be avoided whenever it is interposed, by showing fraud in the procurement of the discharge, or a violation of any of the pro- visions of the bankrupt act. 88. An instrument in the form of a deed, but limited to take efiect at the termination of the grantor's natural life, is held to be a deed, not a will. 87. A sale will not be set aside as fraud- ulent, simply because the buyer was at the time unable to make the payment ag'reed upon, and knew his inability, and did not intend to pay. 88. No man is under an obligation to make known his circumstances when he is ■"ouying goods. 89. Contracting parties afe bound to dis- close material facts known to each, but of which either supposes the other to be igno- rant, only when they stand in some special relation of trust and confidence in relation to the subject matter of the contract. But neither will be protected if he does any- thing, however slight, to mislead or deceive the other. 90. A contract negotiated by mail is formed when notice of acceptance of the of- fer is duly deposited in the post-offlce, pro- perly addressed. This rule applies, although the party making the oft'er expressly re- quires that if it 18 accepted, speedy notice of acceptance shall be given him. 91. The date of an instrument is so far a material part of it, that an alteration of the date by the holder after execution, makes the instrument Void. 9:3. A corporation may maintain an action for libel, for words published of them and relating to its trade or business, by which it has incurred special damages. 93. It is unprofessional for a lawyer who has abandoned his case without trying ' it, a term or two before trial, to claim a fee conditional upon the success of his client, although his client was successfal. 94. Although a party obtaining damages for injuries received through the default of another, v.'as himself guilty of negligence, yet that will not defeat his recovery, unless his negligence contributed to cause the in- jury. 95. A person may contract to labor for an- other during life, in consideration of receiv- ing his support ; but his creditors have the right to inquire into the intention with which such arrangement is made, and it will be set aside if entered into to deprive them of his future earnings. 96. A grantor may by express terms ex- clude the bed of a river, or a highway, mentioned as boundary ; but if without language of exclusion aline is described as ' along,' or ' upon,' or as ' running to ' the highway or river, or as 'by,' or ' running to the bank of the river; these expressions carry the grantee to the center of the high- way or river. 97. The court will take pains to construe the words used in a deed in such a way as to effect the intention of the parties, how- ever nnskillfully the instrument may.be drawn. But a court of law cannot exchange an intelligible word plainly employed in a deed for another, however evident it may be that the word used was used by mistake for another. 98. One who has lost Ms memory and understanding is entitled to legal protec- tion, whether such loss is occasioned by his own misconduct or by an act of Provi- dence. 62 LA W MAXIMS. 99. When a wife leaves her huebancl vol- uutarily, it must be shown, in order to make him liable for necessaries furnished to her, that she could not stay with safety. Personal violence, either threatened or in- flicted, will be sufficient cause for such sep- aration. 100. Necessaries of dress furnished to .a discarded wife must correspond with the pecuniary circumstances of the husband, and be such articles as the wife, if prudent, would expect, and the husband should furnish, if the parties lived harmoniously together. 101. A fugitive from justice from one of the United States to another, may be arrested and detained in order to his surrender by authority of the latter, without a previous demand for his surrender by the executive of the State whence he fled. 109. A watch will not pass under a be- quest of "wearing apparel," nor of '■ household furniture and articles for fami- ly use." 103. Money paid for the purpose of set- tling or compounding a prosecution for a supposed felony, cannot be recovered back by a party paying it. 10-1. An innkeeper is liable for the death of an animal in his possession, but may free himself from liability by showing that the death was not occasioned by negligence on his part. 105. Notice to the agent of a company is notice to the company. 106. An employer is not liable to one of his employees for an injury sustained by the latter in consequence of the neglect of oth- ers of his employees engaged in the same general business. 107. Wbere a purchaser at a Sheriff's sale has bid the full price of property under the erroneous belief that the sale would di- vest the property of all liens, it is the duty of the court to give relief by setting aside the sale. 108. When notice of protest is properly sent by mail, it may be sent by the mail of the day of the dishonor ; if not, it must be mailed for the mail of the next day ; ex- cept that if there is none, or it closes at an unseasonably early hour, then notice must be mailed in season for the next possible mail. 109. A powder-house located in a populous part of a city, and containing large quanti- ties of gunpowder, is a nuisance. 110. When the seller of goods accepts at the time of the sale, the note of a third per- son, unindorsed by the purchaser, in pay- ment, the presumption is that the pay- ment was intended to be absolute ; and though the note should be dishonored, the purchaser will not be liable for the value of the goods. 111. A man charged with crime before a committing magistrate, but discharged on his own recognizance, is not privileged from arrest on civil process while returning from the magistrate's office. 112. When one has been induced to sell goods by means of false pretences, he can- not recover them from one who has bona fide purchased and obtained possession of them li-om the fraudulent vendor. 113. If the circumstances attendant upon a sale and delivery of personal property are such as usually and naturally accompany such a transaction, it cannot be declared a legal fraud upon creditors. 114. A stamp impressed upon an instru- ment by way of seal, is good as a seal, if it creates a durable impression in the texture of the paper. 115. If a party bound to make a payment use due diligence to make a tender, but through the payee's absence from home is unable to find him or any agent authorized to take payment for him, no forfeiture will be incurred through his failure to make a tender. Governiment liand Measure. A township, 36 sections, each a mile square. A section, 640 acres. A quarter section, half a mile square, 160 acres. An eighth section, half a mile long, north and south, and a quarter of a mile wide, 80 acres. A sixteenth section, a quarter of a mile square, 40 acres. The sections are numbered from one to thirty-six, commencing at the northeast corner, thus : 6 5 4 3 2 n w B w n e s e 7 8 9 10 11 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 19 20 21 29 93 94 30 29 28 27 26 25 31 32 33 34 35 36 The sections are all divided in quarters, which are named by the cardinal .points, as in section one. The quarters are di\i- ded in the same way. The description of a 40 acre lot would read : The south half of the west half of the southwest quarter of section 1 in township 24, north of range 7 west, or as the case might be ; and some- times will fall short, and sometimes overrun the number of acres it is supposed to con- tain. DECIMAL SYSTEM OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES. 53 THE DECIMAL SYSTEM OP WEIGHTS AND MEASURES. is Anfflorized Dy Act of Congress-AjproTel my 28, 1866. STANDARDS. In every system of Weights and Measures it is neeessary to have what are called ''Standards,'' as the pound, yard, gallon, &c., to be divided and multiplied into smaller and larger parts and denominations. The definition and construction of these Standards involve philosophical and scien- tific principles of a somewhat abstruse character, and are made and procured by the legislative department of the govern- ment. The nominal Standards in tne new system are the Meter, the Are, the Liter, and the Gram. The only real Standard, the one by which all the other standards are measured, and from which the system de- rives its name of " Metric," is the Meter. THE METER Is used for all measures of length, distance, breadth, depth, heigh th, &c., and was in- tended to be, and is very nearly, one ten- millionth of the distance on the earth's surface from the equator to the pole. It is about 39% inches, or 3 feet, 3 inches and 3 eighths, and is to be substituted for the yard. THE ARE Is a surface whose side is ten Meters, and is equal to 100 square Meters or about 4 square rods. THE LITER Is the unit for measuring solids and capa- ity, and is equal to the contents of a cube whose edge is one-tenth of a meter. It is about equal to 1 quart, and is a standard in cubic, dry and liquid measures. D A cubic Meter (or Kilolite?) is called a stere, and is also usedas a standard in cer- tain cubic measures. THE GRAM Is the Unit of weight, and is the weight of a cube of pure water, each edge of the cube being one one-hundredth of a Meter. It is about equal to 15^ grains. It is intended as the Standard in aU weights, and with its divisions and multiples, to supersede the use of what are now called Avoirdupois, Apothecaries and Troy Weights. Each of the foregoing Standards is divi- ded decimally, and larger units are also formed by multiples of 10, 100, &c. The successive subordinate parts are designa- ted by the prefixes Deci, Centi and Milli ; the successive multiples by Deka, Hecto, Kilo and Myria ; each having its own nu- merical signification, as will De more clear- ly seen in the tables hereinafter given. The terms used may, at first sight, have a formidable appearance, seem difficult to pronounce, and to retain in memory, and to be, therefore, objectionable; but with a lit- tle attention and use, the apprehended dif- ficulty will be found more apparent than real, as has been abundantly proved by ex- perience. The importance, also, of con- formity in the use of commercial terms, on the i)art of the United States, with the practice of the many nations in which the system, with its present nomenclature, has already been adopted, must greatly over- balance the comparatively slight objection alluded to. 54 DECIMAL SYSTEM OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.

Discount and Premium. When a person buys an article for $1,00 — 20 per cent off, (or discount,) and sells it again for $1,00, he makes a profit of 25 per cent, on his investment. Thus : He pays 80 cents and sells for $1,00— a gain of 20 cents, or 25 per cent of 80 cents. And for any transaction where the sale or purchase of gold, silver, or currency is concerned, the following rules will apply in aU cases. Rule 1st.— To find premium when dis- count is given : Multiply 100 by rate of discount and divide by 100, less rate of dis- count. Rule 2d. — To find discount when pre- mium is given. Multiply the rate of interest by 100, and divide by 100, plus the rate of premium. Suppose A has $140 in currency, which he wishes to exchange for gold, when gold is 27 per cent, premium, now much gold should he receive ? In this case the pre- mium is given, consequently we must find the discount on A' s currency and subtract it from the $140, as per rule 2d, showing the discount to be a trifle more than 21 per cent, and that he should receive $110.60 in gold. 5 pr ct.

Facts on Advertising. The advertisements in an ordinary num- ber of the London Times exceed 2,500. The annual advertising bills of one London firm are said to amount to $200,000 ; and three others are mentioned who each annually expend for the purpose J.50,000. The ex- pense for advertising the eight editions of the " Encyclopoedia Britannia" is said to have been $15,000. In large cities nothing is more common than to see large business establishments, which seem to have an immense advantage over all competitors, by the wealth, expe- rience, and prestige they have acquired, drop gradually out of public view, and be succeeded by firms of a smaller capital, more energy, and more determined to have the fact that they sell such and such com- modities known from one end of the land to the other. In other words, the establish- ments advertise ; the old die of dignity.— The former are ravenous to pass out of ob- scurity into publicity; the latter believe that their publicity is so obvious that it cannot be obscured. The first understand that they must thrust themselves upon public attention, or be disregarded; the second, having once obtained public atten- tion, suppose they have arrested it perma- nently; while, in fact, nothing is more char- acteristic of the world than the ease with which it forgets. Stephen Girard, than whom no shrewder business man ever lived, used to say : I have always considered advertising liber- ally and long to be the great medium of success in l)usineBS, and the prelude to wealth. And I have made it an invariable rule too, to advertise in the dullest times as well as the busiest ; long experience having taught me that money thus spent is well laid out ; as by keeping my business continually before the public it has secured me many sales that I would otherwise have lost.

Many have heard of the brilliant stucco whitewash on the east end of the Presi- dent's house at Washington. The follow- ing is a recipe for it ; it is gleaned from the National Intelligencer, with some addi- tional improvements learned by experi- ments : Take half a bushel of nice un- slacked lime, slack it with boiling water, cover it during the process to keep in the steam. Strain the liquid through a fine sieve or strainer, and add to it a peck of salt, previously well dissolved in warm wa- ter ; three pounds of ground rice, boiled to a thin paste, and stirred in boiling hot ; half a pound of powdered Spanish whiting, and a pound of clean glue, which has been pre- viously dissolved by soaking it well, and then hanging it over a slow fire, in a small kettle within a large one filled with water. Add five Mllons of hot water to the mixture, stir it well, and let it stand a few days cov- ered from the dirt. It should be put on right hot ; for this purpose it can be kept in a kettle on a portable furnace. It is said that about a pint of this mixture will cover a square yard upon the outside of a house if proper- ly applied. Brushes more or less small may be used according to the neatness of the job required. It answers as well as oil paint for wood, brick or stone, and is cheaper. It retains its brilliancy for many years. There is nothing of the kind that wiU compare with it, either for inside or outside walls. Coloring matter may be put in and made of any shade yoa like. Spanish brown stirred in will make red pink, more or less deep according to the quantity. A delicate tinge of this is very pretty, for inside walls. Finelv pulverized common clay, well mixed with Spanish brown, makes a reddish stone color. TeUow-ochre stirred in makes yel- low wash, bnt chrome goes further, and makes a color generally esteemed prettier. In all these cases the darkness of the shades of course is determined by the quantity of coloring used. It is dilficult to make rules, because tastes are different. It would be best to try experiments on a shingle and let it dry. We have been told that green must not be mixed with lime. The lime de- stroys the color, and the color has an effect on the whitewash, which makes it crack and peel. When walls have been badly smoked, and you wish to have them a clean white, it is well to squeeze indigo plenti- fully through a bag into the water you use, before it is stirred in the whole mixture. If a larger quantity than five gallons be wanted, the same proportion should be ob- served. in vain to save them, hit upon the expedi- ent of having them. harnessed as though go- ing to their usual work; when, to his aston- ishment, they were led from th« stable without difficulty. L How to get a Horse out of a Fire. The great difficulty of gettincr horses from a stable where surrounding buildings are in a state of conflagation, is well known. — The plan of covering their eyes with a blan- ket will not always succeed. A gentleman whose horses have been in great peril from such a cause, having tried The Cliemical Barometer. Take a long narrow bottle, such as an old- fashioned Eau-de-Cologne bottle, and put into it two and a half drachms of camphor, and eleven drachms of spirits of wine ; when the camphor is dissolved, which it will readily do by slight agitation, add the following mixture : Take water, nine drachms ; nitrate of potash (saltpetre) thirty-eight grains ; and muriate ot am- monia (sal ammoniac) thirty-eight grains. Dissolve these salts in the water prior to mixing with the camphorated spirit ; then shake the whole well together. Cork the bottle well, and wax the top, but after- wards make a very small aperture in the cork with a red-hot needle. The bottle may then be hung up, or placed in any stationa- ry position. By observing the different appearances which the materials assume, as the weather changes, it becomes an ex- cellent progTiosticator of a coming storm or ofa sunny sky. Sieech Barometer. Take an eight ounce phial, and put in it three gills of water, and place in it a healthy leech, changing the water in summer once a week, and in winter once in a fortnight, ' and it will most accurately prognosticate the weather. If the weather is to be fine, the leech lies motionless at the bottom of the glass and coiled together in a spiral form ; if rain may be expected, it will creep up to the top of its lodgings and remain there till the weather is settled ; if we are to have wind, it will move through its habi- tation with amazing swiftness, and seldom goes to rest till it begins to blow hard ; if a remarkable storm of thunder and rain is to succeed, it will lodge for some days before almost continually out of the water, and discover great uneasiness in violent throes and convulsive-like motions ; in frost as in clear summer-like weather it lies constantly at the bottom ; and in snow as in rainy weather it pitches its dwelling in the very mouth of the phial. The top should be cov- ered over with a piece of muslin. To Measube Gkain in a Bin.— Find the number of cubic feet, from which deduct one-fifth. The remainder is the number of bushels — allowing, however, one bushel extra to every 224. Thus in a remainder of 224 there would be 225 'bushels. In a re- mainder of 448 there would be 450 bushels, &c. 60 VAL UABLE RECIPES. VALUABLE RECIPES. [The following recipes are vouched for by several wha have iried them and proven their viftues.

A correspondent, contrary to old maxims, undertakes to judge the character of ahorse by outward appearances, and offers the fol- lowing suggestions, the result of his close observation and long experience : If the color be light sorrell, or chestnut, his feet, legs and face white, these are marks of kindness. If he is broad and full between the eyes, he may be depended on as a horse of good sense, and capable of be- ing trained to anything. As respects such horseSi, the more kindly you treat them the better you will be treat- ed in return. Nor will a horse of this de- scription stand a whip, if well fed. If you want a safe horse, avoid one that is dish-faced. He may be so far gentle as not to scare ; but he will have too much go- ahead in him to be safe with everybody. If you want a fool, but a horse of great bottom, get a deep bay, with not a white hair about him. If his face is a little dish- ed, so much the worse. Let no man ride such a horse that is not an adept in riding ^they are always tricky and unsafe. If you want one that will never give out, never buy a large, overgrown one. A black horse cannot stand heat, nor a white one cold. If you want a gentle horse, get one with more or less white about the head ; the more the better. Many persons suppose the parti-colored horses belonging to the circuses, shows, &c., are selected for their oddity. But the selections thus made are on account of their great docility and gen- tleness. Measurement of Hay in tlie Mow or Stack, — It is often desirably., where conveniences for weighing are not at hand, to purchase and sell hay by measure- ment. It is evident that no fixed rule will answer in all cases, as it would require more cubic feet at the top of a miw than at the bottom. The general rule adopted by those who have tested it, is that a cube, each side of which shall measure eight feet, oi solid Timothy hay, as taken from mow or bottom of stack will weigh a ton. The rule may be varied for upper part of mow or stack according to pressure. 62 TWENTY TEAR CALENDAB. Almanac or Calendar for 20 Years.

RENSSELAER COUNTY. 63 RENSSELAER COUNTY. -♦♦- THIS COUJS'TY was formed from Albany, February 7, 1791, and named in honor of the Rensselaer family. It included the principal part of Rensselaerwyck, upon the east side of the river. It is centrally distant twelve miles from Albany, and contains an area of 690 square miles. The surface is very broken and hilly. It is traversed by two distinct ranges of mountains, extending north and south, known as the Taghkanick and Petersburgh Mountains. The former occupies the extreme east border of the County, and is divided from the latter by the long deep valley through which flow Kinderhook Creek and Little Hoosick and Hoosick Elvers. These mountains are wild, rugged and rocky, rising to a hight of from 1000 to 2000 feet, above tide, and affording a great variety of wild and picturesque scen- ery. Their declivities are usually precipitous and their summits are covered with forests or masses of naked rocks. These moun- tains are composed of the slate, quartz, sandstone and limestone that constitute the Taconic rocks of Professor Emmons. The quartz exists in the form of veins of injection, and in some places the slate has been washed away, leaving the quartz in the form of sharn pointed rocks or of isolated masses. The soil upon the summits and sides of the mountains is generally thin and poor, but in the valleys it Consists of gravelly loam, and is moderately fertile. The Petersburgh Mountains occupy the whole central part of the County. They are wild, irregular and broken masses, with precipitous sides on the east, but with more gradual declivities on the west. In some places the sum- mits spread out over a wide surface, constituting a wide sterile plateau, broken by hills and rocks. These mountains are com- posed of the graywacke slates and limestone belonging to the Hudson Eiver group. An extensive tract is still covered with for- ests. The soil is generally hard and sterile, consisting of a stiff clay and disintegrated slate, underlaid to a considerable extent by hardpan. Hudson River forms the western boundary of the County. Along its bank is a flat, varying from a few rods to half a mile in width, and bounded by a series of bluffs from 100 64 BENSSELAEE COUNTY. to 200 feet in hight. From the summits of these bluffs the sur- face is a broken and hilly upland. This region is composed of the drift deposits, mixed with disintegrated slates, clay and sand predominating in different places. Little Hoosick and Hoosick Elvers and Kinderhook Creek flow through the valley in the eastern part of the County. The summit level in this valley, between the waters flowing north and those flowing south, at South Berlin, is 600 feet above tide. The streams flowing from the Petersburgh Mountains westward, to the Hudson, have worn deep ravines through the clay bluffs, forming lateral valleys which extend eastward from the valley of the Hudson. Numer- ous small lakes and ponds are interspersed in the wild rocky region of the Petersburgh Mountains, forming one of the most beautiful features of the landscape. Several mineral springs are found in the County. The narrow flats along the streams, and a large portion of the uplands, are adapted to grain, and produce excellent crops, but the soil generally is better adapted to grazing and dairying, es- pecially in the eastern towns, where these occupations form the leading pursuits. Manufactures are extensively carried on at Troy and in the Hoosick Valley, and commerce has received considerable attention at Troy. The principal works of internal improvement in the County are the Hudson Eiver E. R, and Troy & Greenbush E. E., its continuation to Troy ; Boston & Albany E. E., extending south- east through East Greenbush and Schodack ; Troy & Boston E. E.,extending north-east through Lansingburgh, Schaghticoke, Pittstown, Hoosick, and a corner of Petersburgh, to the Ver- mont line; Lebanon Springs E. E., connecting Chatham Four Corners and Bennington, Vt., extending through Stephentown, Berlin and Petersburgh ; the Eensselaer & Saratoga E. E., con- necting Troy and Saratoga Springs, and a branch of the New York Central, connecting Troy and Schenectady. The last named roads cross the river at Troy on a substantial bridge, 1600 feet in length, used for carriages as well as railroads. The can- als open into the Hudson opposite Troy, and steamboats ply be- tween this city and New York.

S. Crandall, Town Clerk ; Zebulon Scrivener and Thomas West, Justices of the Peace. In the Town Eecords we find the following: " State of New York, Eensselaer Co. " I hereby certify that Ethan Maxon, son of Samuel Maxon, and Dorcas Willis, widow of Jason Willis', deceased, both of G-rafton, were lawfully joined together in the honorable state of marriage, in said G-rafton on the 12th day of April 1807. Eecorded May 9, 1807. D. C. Crandall, Town Clerk. Elisha Wells, Justice of the Peace." Among the early records of births, we find that of Rufus Gal- lop, Jan. 6, 1757 ; Eebecca Lamphire, Jan. 4, 1764. They were married in 1780. The births of their ten children are also recorded in order, the last Sept. 24, 1802. At the time of the settlement of this town, and many years afterwards, farmers were accustomed to mark their cattle and sheep in the ear, and have their mark recorded in the Town Clerk's ofiice. The following will give the younger portion of our readers a good idea of the manner of doing it : William^ West's ear mark was a " notch in the hind side of the right ear."' Asa Sweet's was " a swallow tail in the end of the left ear and a half-penny in the hind side of the same." The eccentric Lorenzo Dow was the first Methodist preacher in this town ; and Nathaniel Lewis (Baptist,) was the first set- tled minister. The Baptist Church at Grafton Center was organized in 1807 with about twelve members. A new church edifice was erected in 1852 and is now undergoing repairs. The present member- ship is 117. H. J. S. Lewis is the present pastor. The Free Methodist Church was organized by A. B. Burdick with five memlers, viz., Stephen and Lucinda Eivenburgh, Henry Simmons, Jeremiah Martin and Marinda Hayner. The present membership is twenty. The society occupy the Union church. A. B. Burdick is the present pastor. The population of the town in 1865 was 1,673, and its area 27,269 acres. GBBENBTJSM, called by the Dutch Greene Bosch, from the pine woods which originally covered the flats, and by the 90 • GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. Indians " Pe-tu-qua-poem " and " Tus-cum-ca-tick," was formed from Eensselaerwyck, April 10, 1792. Another act of incorpo- ration is dated March 17, 1795. A part of Sand Lake was set oJBF in 1812, and Clinton (now East Greenbush,) and North Greenbush in 1855, leaving in the present town only the corpo- rate limits of the village as defined by the act of April 9, 1852. The surface consists of the flat intervale on the river and a por- tion of the adjacent hillsides. The soil is clay, mixed with sand and alluvial deposits^ Greenbush (p. v.) was incorporated April 14, 1815. The up- per part of the village is locally known as East Albany, and con- tains the depots, freight houses and machine shops of the railroads terminating there. It is a place of considerable busi- ness. The first settlement was made previous to 1631. In that year G-errit Teunissen de Eeue is mentioned as occupying a well stocked farm. Cornelius Maessen Van Buren, an early settler on the river below, died in 1648. Evert Pels Van Steltyn lived on Mill Creek at an early day. On Bleeker's map of Eensse- laerwyck, made in 1767, we find the names of John Witbeck, Peter Douw and Henry Cuyler, located about where the village of Greenbush now is. A ferry was established at the mouth of Beaver Creek in 1642 and was first kept by Hendrick Albertson. The country around Beverwych was thrown into alarm by the news of the Indian massacre at Esopus in Juhe 1663 ; the settlers took refuge in Eort Cralo, on the Patroon's farai, and a night watch was established. The following names of those consti- tuting this watch have been preserved, viz. : Cornelius Van Ness, chief ofl&cer; Cornelius Stephenson Mullen. Adam Din- germans, Gerret Van Ness, Jan Juriaessen, Jan Van Ness, Ja- cobus Jansen, Tyman Hendricksen, Wm. Bout, Jan Outhout, Hendrick Van Ness, Hendrick Maessen, Gerrit Teunisson, Hans Jacobson, Hendrick Williamson and Claes Claessen. The village plat was purchased and laid out in 1806, and for several years thereafter the growth was quite rapid. During \ the War of 1812 it contained from fifty to seventy dwellings. •! The population of the town in 1864 was 4,779 and its area I acres. I : The number of school districts is two, employing four teach- I : ers. The number of children of school age is 1,938; the nuin- I ber attending school, 908 ; the average attendance, 412 ; and I the amount expended for school purposes for the year ending \ Sept. 30, 1869, was 114,080.59. GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 91 MOOSICK was formed as a district, March 24, 1772, and as a town, March 1, 1778. It lies in the north-east corner of the County. The surface consists of the narrow valley of Hoo- sick Eiver and the wild rocky regions of the Taghkanick and Petersburgh Mountains, rising respectively on the east and west. Fondas Hill, in the south-east, and Potters Hill, in the south-west, each about 900 feet above tide, are the two highest peaks. The valleys are very narrow and are bor- dered by steep hillsides. A belt of dark slate, which is quarried for roofing, extends along the east bank of the river. The rocks upon the east side of the river consist of a slaty shale and limestone, the latter furnishing lime. The principal streams are Hoosick and Walloomsac Rivers, Punch Kil, White Creek and Shaw Brook. The soil among the mountains is hard and sterile, and in the valleys it is principally clay, mixed with dis- integrated slate. In the south-east corner are several springs from which issues nitrogen gas. The gas appears to come up from the gravel beds and is not combined with the water. By pressing upon a surface a few inches square a large amount of the gas can be collected in d short time. Flax is extensively cultivated and considerable attention is also paid to manufac- tures. RoosicTc Falls, (p. v.) situated on the Troy & Boston R. R., was incorporated in 1827. It is 27 miles from Troy and contains five churches, viz., Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, Episcopal and Roman Catholic ; a manufactory of mowing and ^reaping machines, shearing machines, a union school and about 3,500 inhabitants. The Union School occupies the building formerly occupied by Ball Seminary, which has been enlarged to about twice its for- mer size. It contains an academic department and, by special act of the Legislature, is made free to all pupils of school age in the district. James K. Hull is the principal, assisted by six associates. The Walter A. Wood Mowing and Reaping Machine Manufac- tory, located in this village, is worthy of more than a passing- notice, being the largest of the kind in the world. Mr. Walter A. Wood, the founder of these extensive works, was born in Mason, N. H., Oct. 23, 1815, came to Hoosick Falls in 1836, and worked at blacksmithing for Seth Parsons, who was engaged in manufacturing. He married a daughter of his employer, a sister of Z. Russell and David B. Parsons, who are now interested in the manufacture of these machines. A few years later Mr. Wood engaged in the manufacture of the Manny Reaper and Mower, to which he added some improvements of his own. 92 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. During all this time lie was at work perfecting his ideal of a machine superior to any other in use. In 1853 his labor was crowned with success, and a patent was granted for his in- vention. In 1854 he commenced, in a small way, the manu- facture of his machines, continuing to increase his works as the demand for the machines increased, until 1866, when a stock company was formed with W. A. Wood, President ; J. "Eussell Parsons, Vice President ; "Willard Gay, Treasurer ; A. C. Gear, Secretary. The demand for the machines increased to such an extent that in 1867 the Company were compelled to enlarge their buildings and did so, giving the working floors of the manufactory an area of over 250,000 feet, or upwards of six acres. The number of men employed is 775, aided by the best machinery in every department. The daily consumption of raw material in this manufactory is twenty tons of cast iron, ten tons of wrought iron, two and a half tons of malleable iron, three-fourths of a ton of steel, and fifteen thousand feet of lum- ber. The works are capable of turning out over one hundred machines a day. The sales during the year 1869 amounted to 23,000, and the whole number made at this establishment, and now in use, will not fall short of 150,000. The sale of this ma- chine is not confined to the United States, but Canada, England, France, Eussia, Germany, Spain and other countries, show their appreciation of its merits- by lending their patronage, the de- mand for these countries being nearly as great as in the United States. The machine received the award of the first prize of the Eoyal Agricultural Society of England in 1861 and 1865, the only prizes offered by that Society since this machine has been before the public. The medal of honor of the great Interna- tional Exhibition at London in 1862, and the first prize at the great National Exhibition of Eussia, and field trials in Moscow in 1864, were awarded to this machine. The number of awards at State and County Fairs are too numerous to mention. The visitor to Hoosick Falls should not fail to visit the rare and beautiful collection of minerals belonging to L. Wilder, Esq., of this village. Mr. Wilder is a great lover of Nature, and has at great expense and labor collected a cabinet of miner- als, which is seldom equaled. It embraces some of the finest specimens of stalactites, agates and other minerals, to be found in the country. The taste displayed in the arrangement calls forth the admiration of all visitors. Eagle Bridge, (p. v.) situated at the junction of the Troy & Boston and the Eutland & Washington Eailroads, contains one store, two hotels, a school house, a saw mill, a grist mill, a planing and flax mill, a rope and cordage factory and about 150 inhabitants. GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 93 BuskirFs Bridge, (p. v.) on the Hoosick Eiver, is a station on the Troy & Boston E. R, and contains three churches, viz., Methodist, Eeformed and TJniversalist ; three stores, a school- house, two flax mills, a saw mill, a cider mill, a carriage factory and about 200 inhabitants. Hoosick (p. V.) is a station on the Troy & Boston R E. and contains two churches, viz.. Episcopal and Baptist ; two stores, two hotels, two blacksmith and wagon shops and about 400 in- habitants. North Hoosick (p. v.) is a station on the Troy & Bennington R. R. and contains a Methodist church, a paper mill, a woolen factory, three stores, a hotel, a flouring mill, a saw mill, a wagon shop, a blacksmith shop and about 400 inhabitants. Walloomsac is a station on the Troy & Bennington R. R. and contains two stores, a paper mill and about 1 40 inhabitants. The village was named from the Walloomsac River, and that received. its name from a German named Wallam, who took up a large tract of land in this vicinity. The name is variously spelled on the early maps and in public documents, viz., Wal- lomsock, Wallamsock, Wallomschock, Walmscock, Walloomschoick, Wallamsac and Walmsook. West Hoosick (p. o.) and Potter Hill (p. 0.) are hamlets. This town included part of the Hoosick Patent, granted June 3, 1688, to Maria Van Rensselaer, Hendrick Van Ness, Jacobus Van Cortlandt and Gerrit Finnise. The Patent extended from the Schaghticoke Tract, a distance of two miles each side of the river, up to a " certain fall called Quequick, and from said falls, up the creek to a place called Nach-a-quick-quack." It included also a part of the Walloomsac Patent, granted June 15, 1739. This Patent contained 12,000 acres, on both sides of the Wal- loomsac River and lying partly in Washington Co. and partly in Vermont. It was granted to Edward Collins, James DeLancy, Gerardus Stuyvesant, Stephen Van Rensselaer, Charles Williams and Frederick Morris. The first settlements were made upon the Hoosick Patent by several Dutch families. Among them were Adam Vrooman, an Indian trader, Henry Van Ness, Abraham Fort, Lewis and Peter Viele, John Van Buskirk, Wal- ter Van Vechten, George B. Nichols, Jaco b " OdekirkpD^niel Bradt and Reykert Borie. A Dutch church was founded and known as the "Tyoshoke Church," at San Coick, near the north border of the town. This settlement was entirely broken up by a party of French and Indians on the 28th of August 1754. Two persons were killed and the houses, barns and crops de- 94 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. stroyed. The next day the settlement at San Ooick, south of Hoosiek, was also destroyed. The invaders were supposed to be Schaghticoke Indians who, a short time before, had abandoned their settlements and gone to Canada. The loss of the two set- tlements was estimated at 4,000 pounds. The conflict called the Battle of Bennington was fought in this town. It was a part of the operations of Burgoyne's inva- sion from Canada in the summer and fall of 1777. His stores and provisions had become so much reduced that he found it necessary to replenish them. Being informed that the Ameri- cans had a large supply of these, and of cattle and horses, at Bennington and in the vicinity, he resolved to send a detach- ment of his army thither to capture them. In accordance with this resolution he dispatched Lieutenant Col. Baume thither with five hundred Hessians, Canadians and Tories, and one hun- dred Indians. Burgoyne's instructions to the commander of the expedition were dated August 9, 1777, and declared the ob- jects to be, to try the affections of the people, to disconcert the councils of the enemy, to mount Eiedesel's dragoons, to com- plete Peters's corps and to obtain large supplies of horses, cattle and carriages. He ordered that all officers, civil and military, acting under the authority of Congress, should be made prison- ers. Baume was further instructed to tax the towns where they halted, with such articles as they wanted, and bring all horses fit to mount the dragoons or to serve as battalion horses for the troops, with as many saddles and bridles as they could find. Burgoyne fixed the number of horses to be procured at thirteen hundred at least, and more if they could be obtained. He directed that they should be " tied in strings of ten each, in order that one man might lead ten horses." Comparing this with the result we see the uncertainty of all human calcula- tions. Baume left his encampment at Fort Edward on the 13th of August, and the next day arrived at Sancoik's, now North Hoosiek. Here he wrote the following letter to his commander : ^to *' Sancoik, 14th August, 1777, 9 o'clock. " Sir — I have the honor to inform your excellency that I ar- rived here at eight in the morning, having had intelligence of a party of the enemy being in possession of a mill, which they abandoned at our approach, but, in their usual way, fired from the bushes and took their road to Bennington. A savage was slightly wounded; they broke down the bridge, which has re- tarded our march above an hour ; they left in the mill about seventy-eight barrels of very fine flour, one thousand bushels of wheat, twenty barrels of salt and about £1,000 worth of pearlash and potash. I have ordered thirty provincials and an officer to GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 95 guard the provisions and the pass of the bridge. By five pris- oners taken here, they agree that from fifteen to eighteen hun- dred are at Bennington, but are supposed to leave it on our ap- proach. I will proceed so far to-day as to fall on the enemy early to-morrow, and make such disposition as I may think necessary, from the intelligence I may receive. People are flock- ing in hourly, but want to be armed. The savages cannot be controlled, they ruin and take everything they please. " I am your excellency's most humble servant, F. Baume." Such was the situation on the 14th as viewed from the Brit- ish stand-point. The Indians and Tories had on the previous day made an attack upon a small party of Americans who were guarding some cattle. It was here that the five prisoners men- tioned in Baume's letter were taken. Let us now look at the field of operations from the American stand-point. On the 9th of August, the day of the date of Bur- goyne's instructions to Baume, General Stark arrived at Ben- nington with a portion of the New Hampshire militia. Here he encamped, sent out scouts to obtain information as to the movements of the enemy, and collected as many of the militia from the surrounding country as possible. Having learned that a small body of Indians were at Cambridge, he sent out Lieu- tenant Colonel Gregg, Aug. 13, with two hundred men to op- pose their march. Towards night he received information that a large body of the enemy with a train of artillery was in the rear of the Indians and in full march for Bennington. Eally- ing all the force at his command and sending an order to the commander of Col. Warner's regiment, at Manchester, to march immediately to Bennington, General Stark moved with his whole force on the 14tli to the support of Col. Gregg. He was accompanied by Cols. Warner, Williams and Brush, though the regiment of Col. Warner remained at Bennington, having ar- rived on the previous night in the rain. After marching about five miles they met Col. Gregg retreating and the enemy within a mile of him. Stark immediately disposed his army for battle, and Baume, hesitating to attack the increased force, took a po- sition upon the high ground near a bend in the Walloomsac, and began to intrench. Perceiving this. Stark fell back about a mile to await re-enforcements, while Baume sent an express to Burgoyne for aid. The next day was rainy and both parties were engaged in preparing for battle. The Hessians and a corps of rangers were strongly intrenched upon the high ground north of the Walloomsac, and a party of rangers and German grenadiers were posted at a ford near what is known as the Bar- net place, at the second railroad bridge as you pass from North 96 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. Bennington to Hoosick. Some Canadians and Peters's corps of Tories were posted on the south side of the river, near the ford. At the foot of a declivity, near the mouth of a creek, on the east, some chasseurs were posted, and about a mile distant from the main intrenchments on the hight, on the south side of the stream, Peters's American volunteers or Tories threw up a breast work. Tradition says that this was commanded by Col. Pfister, a retired British oflBcer of the French War, who resided on what is now known as the Tibbitt's place, about half a mile west of Hoosick Four Corners. On the same side, upon the Bennington road, Stark and his army were encamped. Not- withstanding the rain of the 15th, there was some skirmishing. During the night, Col. Symonds arrived with a body of Berk- shire militia. Among them was a minister named Allen, from Pittsfield, Mass., who was eager for a fight. Before daylight, and while it was yet raining, he called on Gen. Stark and in- formed him that the Berkshire people had come to fight, and if they did not have a chance they would never turn out again. The General replied: "If the Lord shall once more give us sunshine, and I do not give you fighting enough, Fll never ask you to come out again." Sunshine came and with it fighting enough even for the " fighting parson." The battle commenced at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. " It lasted two hours and was the hottest I ever saw. It was like one continued clap of thunder," says the commander in his official report. The enemy were driven from the field, abandoning their baggage to the Ameri- cans. While they were dispersed, appropriating the plunder, Col. Breyman arrived with re-enforcements for Baume. They had approached within two miles before Stark was apprised of the fact. The rain had impeded their progress so that they were not in time to take part in the battle, but meeting the re- treating forces of Baume, they rallied and turned their course again to their abandoned intrenchments. The forces of Stark were too much scattered to offer a successful resistance, and for a short time the fortunes of the day were in suspense. At this critical moment Colonel Warner's regiment arrived from Ben- nington, fresh and well armed, and pushed forward to the con- flict. The battle was continued until sunset, the enemy being ^ driven from the field. Seven hundred of the enemy were made * prisoners, among whom was the commander, who died soon af- ter, of a wound received in the conflict. Two hundred and seven of the enemy were killed. The Americans took four pieces of brass cannon, 250 dragoon swords, several hundred stands of arms, eight brass drums and four ammunition wagons. The American loss was about one hundred killed and as many wounded. General Stark had a horse killed under him but was GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 97 not himself injured. The total loss of the enemy in killed, wounded and prisoners was 934, including 157 Tories. This was an important victory and did much to encourage the Amer- icans and hasten the final surrender of Burgoyne. It was at the commencement of this battle that Gen. Stark made the la- conic speech which tradition has preserved : " See there men ! there are the red-coats. Before night they are ours, or Molly Stark will be a widow !" The grist mill at North Hoosick was owned by a man named Van Schaick, who joined the forces of Stark at Bennington. It is now owned by John G. Burke and is probably the oldest building in the town. As this mill was in possession of the British for a few days preceding the Battle of Bennington it is quite probable that they ground some part of the one thousand bushels of wheat which Col. Baume has in- formed us he found there. The house now owned and occupied by Simeon S. Percey was built in 1794 by David Matthews. It is situated on the east line of the town, one-half being in the State of New York and the other in Vermont. It is a brick structure, very sub- stantially built, and was at the time of its erection probably one of the finest residences in this part of the country. Time had made but little impression upon it and it appears as firm as when built. Among the incidents of the battle, it is related that William Gilmore, a volunteer upon the American side, left his oxen in the yoke and took up arms to repel the invaders. He was engaged with others in taking up the plank upon a bridge across the stream, to prevent the British from crossing, and was the last to leave, when the enemy were so close as to fire upon him. Sheriff Schuyler, of Albany Co., reported, on the 17th of Au- gust, 1764, that an express arrived from "Hoseck" informing him that the "New Hampshire people had turned Hans Jerry Crei- ger, an inhabitant under the proprietors of Hoseck Patent, out of possession of his lands and tenements, drove off his cattle and took with them a parcel of Indian corn, and for the redemption of the cattle compelled him to pay forty-five dollars ; and the said express further informed that the said New Hampshire people were the next day to be at the houses of Peter Voss and Bastiane Deale in order in like manner to dispossess them of their possessions which they had peaceably enjoyed under the proprietors of said Hoseck Patent for upwards of three years, except only when driven off by the enemy Indians during the two last wars." In consequence of this information, the Sheriff proceeded to Hoosick, taking with him "two justices and a few other good people of this province." He arrived on Saturday and was told that the New Hampshire people would not come until 98 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. Monday. Having received notice that they were at the house of Voss and Deale, he proceeded thither immediately ; but be- fore he arrived they had accomplished their design and departed. The Sheriff followed and overtook them, arresting Samuel Ash- ley, who called himself a Deputy Sheriff, Samuel Eobinson, a Justice of the Peace, John Horsfoot and Isaac Charles, and lodged them in jail at Albany. In 1772 it was reported that the rioters had brought to Bennington two pieces of cannon and a mortar from the small fort at East Hoosick, together with pow- der and ball. The difficulties between New York and the New Hampshire Grants continued until the close of the Eevolution, when Vermont became an independent State. Among the early residents of the town after the close of the Eevolution, was Mr. John Haynes, the father of Edmund Haynes. He came to this town in 1787. There were only four or five buildings where the village of Hoosick Falls now stands. These buildings were the grist mill, the dwelling house now oc- cupied by Col. Dorr, a housa where now stands David Gray's store, the mill-house and a log house occupied by Hank Barn- hart. Mr. Haynes Foster settled a little west of the village and took a lease of 160 acres of the Bradt title. Seneca Dorr was born in the town June 10, 1788, and is the oldest resident of the town who was born there. Mrs. Delia Van Hoosen is one of the oldest residents now living in the town who was born there. She was born in the south-east part of the town in 17^9, and still lives near the place of hdr birth. Dr. Salmon Moses, still a practicing physician in the town, was born in Norfolk, Connecticut, in December 1793. He moved to this town in 1818, when the village was only a hamlet containing two stores. The population of the town in 1865 was 4,783, and its area 38,906 acres. LANSINGBUBGH, named in honor of Abraham Jacob Lansing, one of the early settlers and the fpunder of the village, was formed from Troy and Petersburgh," March 20, 1807. A part of Schaghticokewas annexed in 1819. A part of Troy was taken off in 1836, and a part of Brunswick in 1839. It em- braces a narrow strip of land extending along the Hudson. In the south part the river flat is about one-fourth of a mile wide, but in the north the bluffs rise directly from the river. In the north-east is a high rocky hill, from 400 to 500 feet above the river. The high bluff east of the village is called Diamond Eock. The streams are Deepi Kil and Koola Kil. The soil is a gravelly and clayey loam. Considerable manufacturing is car- ried on at the village. A lock at Troy admits the passage of sloops up to this place. GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 99 Lansinghurgh, (p. v.) formerly called New City, contains eight clmrclies, viz : Baptist, Episcopal, two Presbyterian, Methodist Episcopal, Free Methodist, Zion Methodist and Eoman Catho- lic : a female seminary, two newspaper printing offices, two banks, several large manufactories of brushes, oil cloths, bricks, rope and cordage, and about 4000 inhabitants. The brush fac- tory of John Ames gives employment to 80 men and about 200 boys and girls, making about $500,000 worth annually. Speigletotvn, in the north-east part, contains a Methodist church, a school house, a hotel, a blacksmith shop, a wagon shop, and about a dozen dwellings. Lansinghurgh is connected with Waterford by a covered bridge across the Hudson Kiver, and with Troy by horse rail- road and the Troy and Boston R. E. The village was founded by Abraham Jacob Lansing, about the year 1770. It was first organized under the name of Stone Arabia, in 1771. At the first town meeting, held Jan. 1, 1771, it was voted that A. J. Lansing and his heirs forever should be a committee of the village, with a power equal to each of the four chosen by the people. In May, 1775, fifty of the citizens, at the head of whom was A. J. Lansing, signed articles of asso- ciation, pledging themselves to sustain the measures recom- mended by the Continental or Provincial Congress. The first act of incorporation under the State Government was passed April 5, 1790, at which time the village was included in the town of Mensselaerwyck. By this act, John Van Eensselaer, Charles Tillman, Elijah James, Aaron Ward, Stephen G-oreham, Ezra Hickock and Levinus Lansing were appointed Trustees to. take charge of the waste lands of the village, and to j)erform certain municipal duties, their successors to be chosen annually. In 1791, this was included in the town of Troy. The place rap- idly increased in population and became an important trading and commercial village. In 1795, a traveler through this region says there are two new towns, five or six miles from Albany, which share in the trade. The greater distance from New York and the, less depth of water are unfavorable. Ships of sixty tons take only half their cargo at these points, the remainder being received from lighters in the vicinity of Albany. The freight to Albany is two pence per barrel. The same writer says : "New City con- tains sixty or seventy stores or shops, and Troy fifty or sixty. — These new settled merchants all prosper, and their number is daily increasing. The merchants of Albany, it is reported, view this growing prosperity of their neighbors with an evil eye, and consider it an encroachment upon their native rights." 100 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. In 1790, Ananias Piatt, an inn-keeper of Lansingbnrgh, ob- tained from the Legislature a grant to the exclusive right to run a stage between Lansingbnrgh and Albany. In 1794, it made two trips a day each way, in 1795 six trips, and in 1796 he run a stage to Schenectady four times a day. The same year, a Lan- singbnrgh newspaper says, twenty stages pass and re-pass daily between Lansingburgh, Troy, Waterford and Albany, carrying more than 150 passengers. George and Benjamin Tibbits removed from Warwick, E. I., to Lansingburgh, soon after the close of the Eevolutionary war. They opened a store aud continued in the mercantile business at this place until 1797, when they removed to Troy. The Lanaingbvrgh Academy was chartered Feb. 8, 1796. By an act passed Feb. 20, 1816, the Trustees of the Academy were authorized to subscribe one thousand shares to the Bank of Lansingburgh. A. Eeed, from ISTew Windsor, Conn., commenced a school here in 1793, in a gambrel roofed building used as the first meeting house. Eev. Dr. Lee taught the languages at the same time. The first church was organized in 1784 as a Eeformed Prot. Dutch, and re-organized in 1793 as a Presbyterian church. — Eev. Jonas Coe officiated as pastor of this Church for several years, alternating between this village and Troy. Trinity Church (Episcopal) was organized in the early part of January 1804. Eev. David Butler, one of the first class of dea- cons ordained by Bishop Seabury, was the first pastor. There have been six rectors of the parish since its organization. The present rector is Byron J. Hall. . On the 23d of Dec, 1868, the church was burned, since which a chapel has been built at a cost of $400. A new stone church is in process of erection, which will cost when completed about $40,000. It is expected that the new church will be completed before the close of the present year. The Methodist Church was organized at a very early day, Neiv City being one of the first circuits formed. In 1803, Eev. Laban Clark and Martin Enter preached there. Under the influence of Mr. Clark's first sermon, Chandley Lambert was awakened and converted, and afterwards became a preacher. The first church edifice was erected in 1810, chiefly through the instru- mentality of Eevs. Joel Ketchum and Elijah Chichester. It stood on the bank of the river and was occnpied about twenty years. A church was then erected on Congress Street and con- tinued to be occupied until the present house was erected in 1849, under the pastoral charge of Eev. S. Parks. The present membership is 365, and the value of the Church property about $25,000. Eev. W. E. Brown is the present pastor. GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 101 John Street Baptist Church was organized July 28, 1858, with twenty-eight members. Eev. A. B. Whipple was the first pas- tor. Eevs. Sellick, Barlow and Merriman were successively pas- tors. The first church edifice was purchased of the Second Presbyterian Society, August 20, 1860. The present value of the church edifice is $5,000. The number of members is 102. • Eev. A. B. Whipple is the present pastor. St. Augustine's Church (Eoman Catholic) was established in 1842. The first church edifice was a small frame building, cor- ner of John and North streets. A new church was erected in 1864 on the corner of John and Market streets. It is of the Gothic style of architecture, and cost 140,000. In 1869, school buildings were erected in connection with the church at a cost of $10,000. Eev. J. Shannehan was the first pastor. Eev. Thom- as Galberry, 0. S. A., is the present pastor. The population of the town in 1865 was 6,072, and its area 5,253 acres. NASSAU'^du^ formed from Petersburgh, Stephen town and Schodack,'March 31, 1806, as Fhilipstown. It received its pres- ent name April 6, 1808. It lies near the center of the south border of the County. The surface is very broken.. Snake Hill, in the south-west, is about 800 feet above tide. The prin- cipal streams are Kinderhook and Tackawasick or Tsatsawassa Creeks, and Valatia Kil. There are several fine lakes among the hills, the principal of which are the Tsatsawassa and Pata- wassa. The Psanticoke Swamp, in the west part, covers several hundred acres. The soil is clay and gravel, underlaid by hard- pan. Manufacturing is carried on to a considerable extent in the town. Nassau, (p. V.) situated in the south-west part, was incorpor- ated March 12, 1819, contains some manufacturing and about 300 inhabitants. West Nassau contains about 50 houses. East Nassau (p. v.) contains about 200 inhabitants. Hoags Corners (p. v.) contains about 200 inhabitants. Alps (p. V.) about 100. North Nassau and Millers Corners are hamlets. Brainerd, (p. v.) formerly called Brainardh Bridge, is in the south-east part and contains the " Transylvania Institute," es- tablished in 1838, as a boarding school for ladies and gentlemen, and about 200 inhabitants. 103 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. There is a limited amount of manufacturing in most of these Tillages. The first settler oi this town was Hugh Wilson, who located on the site of Nassau village in 1760. At that time a few fam- ilies of the Stockbridge Indians were living in the vicinity. They called their village On-ti-ke-ho-mawck, and their chief Kesh-o-mawck. The Indians conveyed to Joseph Primmer a tract of land north of Hoag's Pond, and another tract south of it, to Hugh Wilson, May 16, 1760. Among the early settlers were Thomas Hicks, Henry Post, John McOagg, Daniel Litz, Titus Hemsted, Abraham Holmes, James Marks, John M. Schermerhorn, Maj. A. Brush, Reuben Bateman, Nathaniel Gil- let, David Waterbury and men named McNeil and Wiltsie. William Primmer is said to have been the first child born in the town. The first grist mill was built on the outlet of Tsat- sawassa Pond, by Mr. Schermerhorn, previous to the Revolution. The first inn was kept a little before the Revolution, by a Mr. Hicks, and the first store, a short time after the Revolution, by Hoag & Vail. Within the last thirty years a considerable quantity of land has been allowed to produce a second crop of timber. The population in 1865 was 2,894, and its area 36,998 acres. The number of school districts is sixteen, employing the same number of teachers. The number of children of school age is 953 ; the number attending school, 761 ; the average attendance, 292, and the amount expended for school purposes for the year ending Sept. 30, 1866, $4,196.36. NORTH GBBBNBVSII was formed from Greenbush, February 23, 1855. It lies upon the Hudson, directly west of the center of the County. • The clay bluffs rise from the river to the hight of 100 to 200 feet, leaving little or no intervale. From the summits of these bluffs the surface spreads out into a roll- ing upland, broken by the deep gulleys of the streams. The principal stream is Wynants Kil, in the north-east. Aries Lake, on the east border, is a fine sheet of water. The soil is a sandy and gravelly loam, interspersed with patches of clay. The peo- ple are extensively engaged in supplying the markets of Troy and Albany with garden vegetables and milk. Bath, situated on the Hudson River, about half a mile above the East Albany Depot, contains two c'hurches, viz.. Bap- tist and Methodist ; a union school, a hotel, six groceries, a coal and wood yard, two confectionery stores, two meat and veget- able markets, two shoe shops, several other mechanic shops and about 2,000 inhabitants. The village is connected with Albany by a I '.earn ferry. GAZETTEEB OF TOWNS. 103 Befreesiville, (p. v.) in tlie south part of the town, called also, Blooming Grove, contains a Eeformed church, a hotel, a black- smith shop, a wagon shop, a shoe shop, two groceries and about a dozen dwellings. Wynantskill (p. v.) contains two churches, two hotels, a gro- cery, three blacksmith shops, two wagon shops and about a dozen dwellings. The first settlement waSr made by tenants under Van Rens- selaer, and was one of the first upon the Manor. Among the early settlers were John Cranel, Juriah Sharpe, Rainier Van Alstyne, Marte, David and Philip Deforest, Philip Wendell, Rutger Van- denburgh,. Cornelius M. Van Beuren, John Fonda, Ed. Hogg- arid Lawrence Rysdorp. Most of these names are found upon Bleeker's Map, made in 1767. The population in 1865 was 2,575, and its area 12,868 acres. The number of school districts is eight, employing eleven teachers. The number of children of school age is 1,300; the number attending school, 765 ; the average attendance, 351, and the amount expended for school purposes during the year end- ing Sept. 30, 1869, was $7,494.39. Two private schools in the town have an attendance of sixty- six pupils. BETEBSBXJBGH, named in honor of Peter Simmons, was formed from Stephentown, March 18, 1791. . Its boundary on the line of Berlin was changed January 4, 1793 ; parts of Berlin and Lansingburgh were taken off in 1806, and parts of Grafton and Nassau in 1807. It lies on the east border of the County, north of the center. The surface consists of two pre- cipitous mountain ridges, separated by the narrow valley of Lit- tle Hoosick River. The highest peaks rise from 1,000 to 2,000 feet above tide. The mountain regions are precipitous, barren and almost inaccessible. The Hoosick River breaks through the Taghkanick Mountains in the north-east part. The soil in the valley is a gravelly loam. The hills are well adapted to pas- turage, and large numbers of sheep are kept. The Troy and Boston R. R. extends through the north-east part, and the Leb- anon Springs R. R. through the central part, along the valley of Little Hoosick River. Upon a mountain, in the south-east part of the town, is a deep cavity, called " Snowhole," where snow and ice remain during the whole year. Petershurgh (p. v.) contains three churches, two hotels, four stores, a saloon, three blacksmith shops, a grist mill, a saw mill, a flax mill, a carriage shop, a cabinet shop, a harness shop and about 250 inhabitants. This village was formerly called Rens- selaer Mills. 104 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. North Petersburgh, (p. v.) in the north part of the town, on the Troy and Boston Railroad, contains a Methodist church, two stores, two hotels, two blacksmith shops and about twenty dwellings. This town was first settled about 1750, by Dutch tenants un- der Van Rensselaer. A few years later a number of families came in from Rhode Island. On a map of Rensselaerwyck, from a survey by John R. Bleeker, in 1767, we find the following names of settlers, most of whom were located on the north side of Hoosick River, viz : Peter and Hans Bachus, Johannes Ruy- ter, Henry Litcher, Hans Lautman, Barent Hogg, Jacob Best, Pet.rus Vosburgh, Bastian Deel, Frans Burn, Juria Kreiger, Henry Young, Scholemaster Watson, Long Andries, De- voet and Primmer. The last name probably designates John George Brimmer, who with his family settled in 1754 in the north part of the town, where Henry J. Brimmer now lives. William W. Reynolds came from* Rhode Island and settled in 1780. He had six children, viz : Howard, Thomas, Benjamin, Elijah, Parker and Amy, numerous descendants of whom still reside in the town. Ichabod Prosser, from Vermont, settled soon after the war, where A. Prosser now lives. He was at the Battle of Bennington. Joshua, Thomas and Benjamin Ran- dall, Abraham Lewis, Augustus Lewis, Oliver Spencer, Stephen Card and Sylvanus Stephens settled at Lewis's Hollow at an early day. Asa and David Maxon, from Rhode Island, settled in 1794," where Clark Maxon now lives. They purchased 150 acres at five shillings per acre. Sterry Hewett, from Conn., set- tled soon after the Revolution, where T. L. Nichols now lives. He was a soldier of the Revolution ; came to this town with an ox team. Stanton Bailey, from Conn., settled previous to the war, where W. B. Odell now lives. Gideon Clark settled where J. G. Clark now lives ; he was a soldier of the Revolution and drew a pension. Joseph Allen, from Rhode Island, settled about 1790, where Clark Peckham lives ; he was a soldier of the Revo- lution. William Hiscock, from Rhode Island, settled about 1788, where Livingston now lives. James Weaver, from Rhode Island, settled where Henry Weaver now lives; he was a Revo- Intionary soldier and at the Battle of Bennington. Thomas Phillips, from Rhode Island, settled soon after the Revolution, where J. G. Phillips now lives. On the 15th of June, 1754, Mr. John G. Brimmer w\as at work in the field with his sons, George, Godfrey and John, when Indian blankets were discovered. Mr. B. immediately started for tbe house, telling his sons to unharness the horses and follow him. Before they could comply with their father's request, four Indians were discovered coming toAvards them GAZETTEER OF TOWNS, ^ 105 They immediately grasped their guns, and George and one of the Indians fired at each other, G-eorge falling dead. Godfrey, seeing his brother fall, ran and hid behind a brush fence. While concealed he saw two Indians looking for him. He drew up his gun to fire, but a leaf falling upon the sight, he changed his po- sition and was discovered by the Indians. He and one of the Indians immediately exchanged shots, but without efiect. Per- ceiving the other Indian about to fire, he dropped the butt of his gun upon the ground, placed one hand over the muzzle and extended the other towards the Indian in token of surrender. The Indians came to him, one of them grasped him by the col- lar and passed around him three times with one finger within his shirt collar, then laid his hand upon his head, signifying " You are my prisoner." The Indians took John prisoner also, though he fled to an island in, the river on their approach and threw stones at them. He was sixteen years old, and Godfrey was twenty-one. They immediately started for Canada and pro- ceeded to Lake Champlain, where they took the skifis which they had previously left. The prisoners were taken to St. Johns, where they were met by about three hundred Indians, who formed a circle around them and ordered them to sing. They refused and were ordered the third time, but they still declared that they could not sing. The Indians being exasperated were about to strike, and had their clubs already raised for the pur- pose, when Godfrey discovered, in the crowd, an Indian who had partaken of the hospitalities of his father's house. He spoke to the Indian, who recognized him and interfered to save the pris- oners from torture. They remained at St. John's for six weeks, and were then sold to the French, by whom they were treated as slaves, suffering greatly from the tyranny of their masters. After a servitude of more than five years, they secured their free- dom on the surrender of Quebec to the English in 1759. They immediately started for Albany, and at Lake George were taken by the British and thrown into prison. They were soon re- leased through the influence of Mr. Van Eensselaer, and made their way to Albany. They there learned that their parents had removed to Ehinebeck and had heard nothing from them since their capture. The family afterwards removed back. to the Hoosick Valley, where a numerous posterity now reside. The early settlers were obliged to go to Albany to mill, and endure many other hardships incident to a new country. About 1780, John, Nathaniel, Hannah and Elizabeth Church settled where Peter Church now lives. Peter Church was born in this town in 1787, is still living, and probably the oldest person in the town who was born there. He has raised a family of eleven children, all of whom are now living. o 106 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. The first grist mill was erected by George Eosenburgh, about 1770, on the creek below Peter Church's. The first school was kept by Hall ; the first tavern by Cornelius Litcher, and the first store by Benjamin Hanks. A log grist mill was erect-, ed at South Petersburgh by John Spencer, previous to the Rev- olution, and a carding mill was erected by Barber & Murray in 1800, The first church was erected by the Lutherans, at North Petersburgh, about 1798. The Methodist Church was organized about 1798, under the la- bors of Rev. Joseph Sawyer. Ebenezer Washburn was convert- ed and made the leader of a class, consisting of his wife, John Prosser and wife, and John G. Croy and wife. Before the close of the year the number increased from half a dozen to over thirty. Rev. Lorenzo Dow also preached here about this time. Mr. Washburn afterwards because a preacher. Rev. Peter Van Most and Daniel Bromley were among the other preachers at an ■early day. Rev. Elisha B. Hoflf is the present pastor. A Meth- »odist church was formed at South Petersburgh, by Joseph Mitehel, in 1800. Services were held at the house of George mger. Their church edifice was erected in 1820. A (Christian Church was organized by Rev. John Spoon, about 1838. It consisted of fourteen members. The present edifice was erected in 1843, the number of members is 89, and the pres- ■ent;pastor is Rev. W. B. Haight. Dr. Hiram Moses was an early physician of this town, and, with his son, Hiram, is still practicing. Mrs. Mary Wilcox, the wife of Nathan Wilcox, committed suicide in December 1869. She was partially insane and had .not left her room for nearly a week previous to her death. She went to the garret and, with the sleeves of a Garibaldi waist about her neck, attached it to the bed post, and was found dead a few hours afterwards. Mrs. Thomas Carr^ a resident of the Prosser Settlement, left her house one day at 2 p. m., with three little children, aged three and a half, two years and five months. The house took .fire, and before aid arrived, the children were burned to death. The two oldest were taken from the fire clasped in each others arms. Nothing but the bones of the youngest was found. In July 1848, a most atrocious and cold blooded murder was perj)etrated in the south part of the town, by Andrus Hall. The victinjs were Noah Smith and his wife, aged respectively 80 and 72 years. Hall had been in the employ of Smith, bat left and went to Troy. He returned on Friday night and stopped at Hewitt's barn. Early in the evening he went to Smith's house with a handspike and found the door bolted. He told Smith there GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 107 It were cattle in the meadow, back of the barn. Smith came out and Hall accompanied him to show him where the cattle were. As they were walking along quietly, Hall struck him upon the side of the head, killing hjm instantly. He then cut his throat and dragged him into the thick grass and left him. Hall then went to the house, told Mrs. Smith that her husband had sent him for an ax to fix the fence. She procured the ax, which he took, and with it struck her upon the side of the head. She fell to the floor, groaning mournfully. Hall lit the caudle, which had become extinguished on falling from Mrs. Smith's hand, and struck her another blow ; she still continued groan- ing', and Hall then took a knife and stuck it in her neck. He then barred the door and began the search for money, first put- ting a sheet before the window. He searched various places in the house, finding a considerable amount of money, including bills and specie. Mrs. S. continued groaning, and Hall stuck the knife into her neck-again. Perceiving the gold beads upon her neck, he cut the string and put the beads in his pocket. — Hearing a noise he left the house, and after going to Mr. Smith and covering his body with grass, started for Troy. Hall was executed at Troy, March 15, 1849, at the age of 24. Previous to his execution he made a full confession of this crime and others, showing that he was one of the most depraved of crimi- nals. He had previously murdered a boy named Franklin Brown, in Hoosick, for a few dollars in money and a silver watch. The bones of the boy were found where Hall had concealed the body. Mrs. Smith's gold beads led to his detection for his last crime. The wife of Henry Laker was murdered a few years since by a man named Coon, who was afterwards executed for his crime. The population of the town in 1865 was 1,670, and its area 25,338 acres. JPITTSTOWN was created as a township, by patent, July 23, 1761, and was formed as a town March 7, 1788. Its bound- ary was changed February 14, 1793. It lies in the center of the north part of the County. The surface is mountainous in the south and east, and declines into a moderately hilly region in the north. The highest summits in the south-east are 800 to 1000 feet above tide. The soil is chiefly a gravelly and slaty loam. Flax is extensively cultivated and manufacturing is car- ried on to some extent. Johnsonville (p. v.) is a station on the Troy and Boston E.

Ludovicus Viele settled at Valley Falls in 1772, and Christian Fisher and Michael Vandercook, at Cooksborough, the same year. In 1770, William Shepard, from New England, located on 500 acres ; Benjamin Aiken, from Dutchess Co., located on 950 acres, about 1778 or '80, and in 1785 Alexander Thompson located on 500 acres.

The first church (Baptist) was organized in 1784; Elder Isaac Webb was the first preacher. GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 109 The farm now owned and occupied by Leo V. Eeed was pur- chased at a very early day, by a man named Tinsler, of an In- dian chief. The tract contained about 180 acres, for which he gave an ax. In looking over the files of the "Northern Budget," in the Li- brary of the Troy Young Men's Association, the following rem- iniscence of Pittstown was discovered : "Thieves Take Notice ! » "The thievish brood, both small and great, Who pilfer early, pilfer late, Remorseless, graceless, shameless, cruel.

Whether this effusion had the effect to protect his timber from thieves, we are unable to say, but think they must have been incorrigible if this failed to make them honest. The population of the town in 1865 was 3,831, and its area 39,513 acres. POESTENKILL, named from its principal stream, was formed from Sand Lake, March 2, 1848. It lies near the center of the County, upon the western declivities of the Petersburgh Mountains. The central and east portions are rugged, rocky and mountainous, and the soil is cold, sterile and unproductive. The west part is hilly, and the soil is a gravelly loam, well adapted to pasturage. Snake Hill, near the center, is one of the principal elevations. Upon the Poesten Kil is a beautiful cas- 1 10 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. cade of eighty feet fall. About a mile west of the falls is a me- dicinal spring which has attained some notoriety for the cure of eruptions and cutaneous diseases. A bathing establishment erected here several years ago was carried away by a freshet. PoestenMll, (p. v.) on the creek of the same name, contains two churches, three stores, a grist mill, a saw mill, a small 'cot- ton batting factory and about 300 inhabitants. East Poestenkill (p. o.) is a hamlet. Barberville contains a church and about fifteen dwellings. The population of the town in 1865 was 1,952, and its area 19,353 acres.

The surface is mountainous in the east and hilly in the west. Perigo Hill, in the north-east corner, is 900 feet above tide ; and Oak Hill, near the center, is about the same higlit. The east part of the town contains large forests, and is a favorite resort for hunting and fishing. Wynants Kil, flow- ing north-west through the center, and Tsatsawassa Creek, in the east, are the principal streams. Along the valleys of these streams are several small lakes, the principal of which are Sand, Glass and Crooked Lakes, and Big Bowman's Pond. The soil among the mountains is a hard, sterile clay, and in the west a good quality of gravelly loam. Three-fourths of a mile east of West Sand Lake is a chalybeate spring. Large quantities of cord wood, charcoal and tanbark are carried to the Troy and Albany markets. Sand Lake, (p. v.) situated near the center of the town, con- tains a Baptist church, two hotels, a store, four woolen mills, a cotton warp mill, a paper mill and about 1,000 inhabitants. The Woolen Mill of James Aken contains six sets of ma- chinery, and manufactures knit goods for men's underwear.

West Sand Lake, (p. v.) in the north-west part of the town, contains four churches, viz., Methodist, two Lutheran and a German Methodist ; a hotel, four stores and about 300 inhab- itants. • The settlement of this town was commenced previous to the Revolutionary War. Among the early settlers were Abram Frere, Nicholas Fellows, Andreas Barent, Fred. Shaver, An- dreas Weatherwax, Abram Bristol, Ephraim Quinby, John Car.- michael and Stephen Miller. Joshua Lockwood and William Carpenter built the first grist mill, in 1768, at West Sand Lake. The population of the town in 1865 was 2,606, and its area 21,- 968 acres.

Pittstown. was taken off March 7, 1788, and a part of Lansingburgh in 1819. It lies on 112 OAZETTEEB OF TOWNS. the Hudson, in the north-west corner of the County. The sur- face is principally a rolling upland, about 200 feet above the river. The summits of the hills in the south are 800 feet above tide. Hoosick River, flowing through the north part, is border- ed on a portion of its course by steep banks 200 feet high. On this stream, at the mouth of Tomhannoek Creek, is a beautiful circular valley, three-fourths of a mile in circumference, and bounded on nearly every side by steep hills. A srriall stream, called the Dwaas Kil, flows from the Hudson into the mouth of the Hoosick. When the Hoosick suddenlyrises, the current of the stream is often changed, and it is not uncommon to se^ it running north in the morning and south at night. The name, Dwaas Kil, signifies " stream running both ways." The soil is generally a fertile, sandy or gravelly loam. Manufacturing is carried on to some extent in the town. Harfs Falls, (p. v.) (formerly Schaghticoke Point,) is situated on Hoosick River, four miles from its junction with the Hudson and about three-fourths of a mile from Schaghticoke Station, on the Troy & Boston R. R. The village contains three churches, viz., Methodist, Presbyterian and Roman Catholic ; three district schools, three hotels, a woolen factory, two paper mills, a twine and bagging factory, a marble factory, the Schaghticoke Powder Mill and about 1100 inhabitants. At this place is one of the finest water-powers on the Hoosick River. The whole fall is about 96 feet, including a perpendicular fall of 32 feet. A large part of this power is still unoccupied. Vic- tor Lodge, No. 680, F. & A. M., and Phrenix Lodge, No. 776, I. 0. of C T., at this village, are in a flourishing condition. Junction, (p. v.) situated on the Deepi Kil, about a mile from Grants Junction-, on the Troy & Boston R. R., contains a store, the Grant Fanning Mill and Cradle Manufactory, and about twenty houses.

R., contains a Meth- odist church, two stores, a saw mill, a grist mill, a twine and cordage mill, a scutching mill, the Schaghticoke Powder Keg Mill and about 150 inhabitants. Old Schaghticoke is a name applied to a section about six miles square, lying in the north-west part of the town. This valley, like the territory generally along the eastern bank of the upper Hudson, was formerly occupied by the Al- gonquin race, who after many years of hostility were at last con- quered and driven northward. For several years the country remained nearly unoccupied, but about 1670, through the exer- tions of Sir Edmond Andros, the Colonial Grovernor, a remnant GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 113 of the Pequots were settled here under the name of Schaghticokes, the land having been given by the Mohawks as a barrier to the incursions of the northern tribes. About 1728 a division of the Tribe took place, the main body remaining until the " Seven Years War," when they joined their kindred in Canada. Small bodies of the Schaghticokes have until within a few years con- tinued to visit their ancient burial place and counsel tree, near the banks of the Hoosick Kiver, in '"' Old Schaghticoke." They were accompanied by a very aged woman of the Royal race, named Bathsheba. She died in 1854, aged more than one hun- dred years. By the charter of 1686, the City of Albany obtained the right to purchase of the natives five hundred acres of land in this town, but neglecting to improve this privilege immediately, the right was given to Hendrick Van Eensselaer, in 1698. The next year he sold his claim to the City, and in 1707 an Indian deed was obtained of a tract six miles square, lying chiefly in this town. The consideration for this valuable tract was "two blankets, two body coats, twenty shirts, two guns, twelve pounds of powder, thirty and six pounds of shot, eight gallons of runi, two casks of beer, two rolls of tobacco, two gallons of Madeira wine and some gin," to them in hand delivered by the Mayor, Recorder and Common Council of the City of Albany. In 1709 the City conveyed the land to the following settlers, viz., John de Wandelaer, Jr., John Heermans Vischer, Corset Voeder, Daniel Kittlehuyn, John Knickerbocker, Louis Viele and Derick Van Veighten, who went there to reside, and were soon followed by Martin de Lament, Wouter Quackenbosch, Peter Yates, David Schuyler, Wouter Groesbeck, Philip Livingstone, Ignace Kip, Cornelius Yandenburgh and many others, whose descendants still reside in the vicinity. In 1714 Schaghticoke was organized into a parish of the Dutch Church. Having no regular minister residing there, the services were performed alternately by the ministers of Albany and Schenectady. A log church was erected the same year, and a small block-house in which the inhabitants took refuge in times of danger. The parish suffered greatly from incursions of French and Indians, who several times destroyed their church and dwellings, and carried into captivity many inhabitants. In 1746 the Government erected a fort at old Schaghticoke, and garrisoned it with two companies of soldiers until the close of the Seven Years War. After the conquest of Canada by the English, there was greater security and the population increased rapidly. In 1760 a new church was built, which was a good specimen of the quaint style of church architecture common in the middle of the last century. It was sixty 114 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. by forty feet, with low side walls and a high pitched Man- sard roof, ending at the eastern gable in a bulbous turret, sur- mounted by a weather cock. The pulpit, which had its canopy and sounding board, was mounted on a high pedestal, beneath which was a small desk for the " Voorlieser," or clerk, in front of which was a communion table equally quaint. There was no burial ground attached to this church, and the oldest in the neighborhood is that of the Knickerbacker family, on the site of an Indian cemetery. The first burial of a European oc- curred in 1715. A few rods south-east of this spot is the " Witenagemote," or " Council Tree," a remarkably vigorous and symmetrical oak, the trunk of which measures twenty feet in circumference. The first installed pastor of the Church was Kev. Elias VanBunschooten. He was the clergyman whom tradi- tion reports as having performed the marriage service while the parties were on the opposite side of the Hoosick Eiver from the minister. It occurred at a ford about a mile above the junction of the Hudson and Hoosick Elvers. After the appointment Avas madd, the river became .suddenly swollen by rain, so that it was impassable for either party. But as marriages cannot well be postponed without great inconvenience to the parties, the minister took his station upon one bank of the river, and the parties to be united on the other, while the ceremony was duly performed according to the ritual of the Dutch Church. The Dominie informed the happy bridegroom that if the guilder was left at a neighboring house, it would be duly received. At the commencement of the Revolution a regiment was raised and placed under the command of Col. John Knicker- backer. He had charge of the fort at this place and accom- panied the regiment to Ticonderoga. On the approg,ch of Bur- goyne, most of the inhabitants fled to Albany, leaving their dwellings to the mercy of the British and Hessian soldiers, who occupied them for some time, but through the influence of the Tories did not burn the place. The following advertisement was copied from the Northern Budget, of July 1805. "SCHAGHTICOKE PoiNT. "The subscriber, thankful for the large share of custom brought to his machine by the public, and being desirous of giving them all the accommodation in his power, has set up an additional machine in his mills at Schaghticoke Point, and is now able to give them double dispatch in the business of card- ing wool.

In ] 777, Derrick Van Veghten was shot and scalped by the Indians. His tobacco box was perforated by the ball which killed him ; it is still in the possession of his descendants. His father, Herman Van Veghten, was shot by the Indians in 1746. At the close of the war, the inhabitants returned to their agricul- tural pursuits. John J. Bleecker was one of the early settlers of this town, locating there previous to the Eevolutionary War. On the ap- proach of Burgoyne, Mr. Bleecker went to Albany to seek a place of safety for his family. He had scarcely been gone a day when Mrs.* Bleecker received intelligence that the enemy were within two miles of the village, burning and murdering all be- fore them. Greatly terrified, she immediately took her young- est child in her arms, while another one about four years old walked by her side, accompanied by a young mulatto, girl, and leaving her house and furniture to the mercy of the enemy, started on foot for Albany. The roads were crowded with car- riages loaded with women and children, but none could afford her any assistance. After walking four or five miles she ob- tained a seat for the children upon one of the wagons while she continued her journey on foot to Lansingburgh, then called Stone Arabia, "where she expected to find many friends ; but she was deceived; no door was open to her whose house by many ,of them had been made use of as a home. She wandered from house to house and at length obtained a place in the gar- ret of a rich old acquaintance, where a couple of blankets stretched upon some boards were offered as a bed. She however ^at up all night and wept, and the next morning, Mr. Bleecker, coming from Albany, met with them and returned to that city, from whence they set off with several other families by water." — [Mem. of Mrs! Bleecker.'^ They went to Eed Hook, and, after the surrender of Burgoyne, returned to their former home, where, they enjoyed tolerable tranquility until August 1781, when Mr. Bleecker, with two other men, was taken prisoner while engaged in the harvest field, and, with their captors, started for Canada. Mrs. B. awaited with anxiety the return of her husband, and, at length, apprehensive that something unu- sual had occurred, dispatched a servant who soon returned with the account that the men were nowhere to be seen, but the horses and wagOn were in the road, tied to a tree. As small par- 116 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. ties from Canada were known to be skulking in the woods, Mrs. B. was at no loss to account for the absence of her husband. — The neighbors were immediately alarmed and the woods searched, but no trace of the prisoners or of their captors could be found. Though it was near night, Mrs. B. started immedi- ately for Albany, giving up her husband as lost. Fortunately Mr. B. was retaken by a party from Bennington, and returned to his wife in a few days. Mrs. Bleecker appears to have been a lady of considerable talent as a writer, a volume of her wri- tings, in connection with her memoirs, being published in 1793. Among the instances of barbarous captivity and massacre during the French and Indian War, none is more shocking than that of the Kittle families. Mr. Kittle settled in this town be- fore the War, about the year 1736, where they enjoyed all the comforts which the country afforded. About a year after their marriage they were blessed with a daughter who became a fa- vorite with the Indians as well as with her parents and friends. When Anna, for that was the daughter's name, was about twelve years old, she had the pleasure of greeting a little brother. When the news of the horrid massacres and depredations of the savages reached the ears of Mr. Kittle, he became alarmed at the danger of his brothers then residing near Fort Edward, and in- vited them to reside with him during the War. Scarcely had his brothers become settled with him, when the incursions of the savages in the country approaching their own residence, sparing neither age or sex, so alarmed them that they resolved to remove to the vicinity of Albany. While packing up and making ready for their journey, several Indians whose wigwams were in the vicinity and who had always appeared well dispos- ed towards the English, called and assured Mrs. Kittle that she should be apprised in case of danger, and to make her more con- fiding in his friendship, one of them presented her with a belt interwoven with silk and beads, as a token of friendship. Though Mr. K. appeared less inclined to trust the Indians than did his wife, they decided to suspend their journey to Albany for a few days. The next day, according to j*-evious arrange- ment, Mr. K. and his brother Peter went on a hunting excur- sion, not without some forebodings of the evils that awaited them. At length, weary with their journey and seeing no game of value, they resolved to return home. While passing along the bank of the river, within a few miles of their home, tliey saw a fine fat doe, which Peter, by a well directed shot, brought to the ground. Shortly after the discharge of his gun, two sav- ages appeared and immediately discharged their pieces at the brothers, killing Peter almost instantly. Mr. Kittle immediate- GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 117 ly Shot one of the Indians and, with the butt end of his gun, felled the other to the ground, leaving both for dead. He then placed the body of his brother upon the horse and proceeded to- wards home. On his arrival he made known the circumstances of his disaster, ordered a horse that he might proceed imme- diately to the village of Schaghticoke for wagons to remove his family to some safe retreat. He had been gone but a short time when the tramping of horses feet and the yell of voices an- noiinced the arrival of Indians, who §oon demanded admittance. The work of destruction was sudden and awful ; a brother of Mr. Kittle's, with his wife, were murdered in the most shocking manner. Mrs. K., and her brother-in-law, Henry Kittle, were tarken prisoners, but her children perished in the flames of the house, which the Indians plundered and set on fire. Mr. K. re- turned to find his house in ashes, the mangled bodies of one brother and sister-in-law, and the charred remains of his child- ren, but no tidings of the others, who he supposed had perished in the flames. After suffering the usual hardships of a journey, the captives arrived in Montreal, where Mrs. K. found one of her old neighbors, Mrs. Bratt, who had previously been taken prisoner. For two years Mrs. K. received the kind attentiotis of the ladies of Montreal, but failed in all of her endeavors to ob- tain the least information respecting her husband. Her letters would sometimes be returned to her after wandering through various provinces without reaching him for whom they were de- signed. At length after a long and fruitless search for his long lost brother, Mr. Kittle found him in Montreal, and then for the first time heard that his wife had been made a captive and was not murdered. The meeting was as if one had risen from the dead, and the happiness of meeting can only be imagined. Henry Miller was another of the early settlers of this town, and his descendants still reside there. He and his wife were from Germany, and came over at an early day. Having arrived in New York after a tedious voyage, he left his family and took passage with a Dutch skipper for Albany, to seek a spot upon the vacant lands of this State. From Albany he went on foot to seek a home for his family, and while traveling along the banks of the Hudson, admiring the beauty of the scenery and buoyant with hopes for the future, he suddenly met one of his old companions with whom he had served in the army in the old country. The interview was mutually agreeable. Mr. Mil- ler went to the home of his old friend, was pleased with the country, and, with the aid of his new friends, erected a log cabin to which he removed his family in a few days, and thus became one of the early settlers of Schaghticoke. X 18 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. The population of the townin 1865 was 3,054, and its area 26,900 acres. SCHO DACK was formed March 17, 1795, at the time of the division of Bensselaerivyck. Parts of Berlin and Nassau were taken off in 1806. It lies upon the Hudson in the south- west corner of the County. From the river the surface rises in a series of bluffs 200 feet high, from the summits of which it spreads out into an undulating upland, inclined to the west. — Bunker Hill, the highest point, is about 500 feet above tide. The surface is intersected by numerous deep gulleys worn by the small streams. The principal streams are Vierdee Kil, Moordeners Kil, Vlockie Kil, Muitzes Kil and Valatie Kil. — Moordeners Kil (Murderers Kil) was so called, says tradition, from an obstinate battle fought between the settlers and a band of robbers at an early day. Adams Killetye is a small creek, so called from Adam Mall, who was taken prisoner by the Indians while drinkifig of its waters. The soil in the east is clay, and in the west a fertile sandy and gravelly loam. Castleton, (p. v.) situated on the Hudson River, about fourteen miles below Troy, contains two churches, viz :^Iethodist and Reformed ; a hotel, six stores, a stove and tinmiop, a jewelry store, a lumber yard, five brick yards, and a population of about 600. Eive barges run between this village and New York, two of them carrying produce and three of them brick. Schodack Landing, (p. v.) in the south-west part of the town, on the river, is a station on the Hudson River R. R. and con- tains a Reformed church, two hotels, and about 250 inhabitants. South Schodack (p. v.) is a station on the Boston and Albany R. R., containing about 100 inhabitants. Muitzes Kill is a hamlet on Muitzes Kil Creek, and contains about 20 dwellings. Schodack Depot (p. v.) contains about twenty dwellings. This town appears to have been visited by Hudson while on his voyage up the River in 1609, and was thickly inhabited by native tribes. When near the site of Castleton, he went on shore and was received with the greatest hospitality by the Gov- ernor of the country, who was Chief over forty men and seven- teen women. This Chief occupied a house made of the bark of trees, very smooth and well finished. Large quantities of corn and laeans were found, sufficient, the early accounts say, to load three ships, besides what were still in the fields not yet harvest- ed. On arriving at the house two mats were brought forward and spread upon the ground for Hudson to sit upon. Food was GAZETTEER OF TOWNa. 119 also brought in well made wooden bowls and men were dis- patched with bows and arrows to bring in game. They soon returned with a good supply of pigeons, to which was added a fat dog killed and skinned with shells from the river. The feast was got up without regard to expense, and doubtless was relished by the natives, if not by their guests. The land is de- scribed as the finest ever seen for tillage, and timber in large quantities fit for ship building was growing upon its surface. — Pumpkins, grapes and other fruits were abundant. The na- tives exchanged furs and other articles for beads, knives, hatch- ets and whatever else the sailors conld spare. When the Chief found that Hudson would not remain upon shore over night, and supposing that it was through fear of their bows and ar- rows, he caused the arrows to be broken and thrown into the fire. The first settlements were made by tenants under Van Ren- selaer. Over forty settlers are mentioned in Bleecker's survey in 1767. Among them we find the names of Van Buren, Barhudt, Van Valkenburgh, Springsteen, Schermerhorn, Janze, Ketel, Poel; Miller, Schevers, Lodwick, Huyck, Beek- man, Mills, Molls, Salsberg, Witbeck and Nolton. The first mill was built Ijefore the Revolution, below Castle- ton. The first inn was kept by a man named Barhydt, in 1778. A carding mill was erected on Muitzes Kil in 1800. The population of the town in 1865 was 4,015, and its area 36,666 acres. The number of school districts having their school houses in this town is fourteen, employing fifteen teachers. The number of children of school age is 1,317 ; the number attending school 909 ; the average attendance, 378, and the amount expended for school purposes during the year ending September 30th, 18G9,was 16,518.80. STBPMMNTOWJS', named in honor of Stephen Van Rensselaer, was formed from Rensselaerwyck, March 29, 1784. Petersburgh was taken off" in 1794, and parts of Berlin and Nas- sau in 1806. It lies in the south-east corner of the County. The surface consists of two rocky, mountainous ranges, separat- ed by the valley of Kinderhook Creek. The highest summits are about 1,800 feet above tide. The principal peaks are Round Mountain, and Whitney and Butternut Hills, east of the valley, and Brockway Hill and Webster Mountain on the west. Ex- tensive forests cover a portion of the .town. The principal streams are Kinderhook and East Creeks, Black River, Black and Roaring Brooks. The soil is hard and sterile among the mountains, but a gravelly loam in the valleys. 120 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. Stephentown, (p. y.) situated on Kinderhook Creek, contains two churches and about twenty dwellings. Stefhentown Flats, on the same stream, contains a cotton bat- ting factory, a machine shop and about twenty-five dwellings. Mechanicsville, on Black Eiver, contains a church, a saw mill, a grist mill, a brush factory, four turning shops and about twenty-five dwellings. West Stephentown, North Stephe7itown and South Stephentown are post offices. The first settlement of this town was commenced about 1766. Asa Douglas, his son William, and his grandson Benjamin, Na- than Eose, Elnathan Sweet and Joseph Eogers settled near the center of the town, and Joshua Gardner in the east part, at a very early day. Edward Carr settled near Kinderhook Creek, and John Mills, ■ Husted, Lewis, Berry and others settled in the north part. Most of the early settlers were from Ehode Island. The first child born in the town was William Douglas, a grandson of Asa, one of the first settlers. He afterwards mar- ried the first white female born in the town. The late Hon. Stephen A. Douglas was a descendant of the first settler. The first church (Baptist) was organized in 1783, under Eev. Justus Hall. Eev. Eobert Miles was the first pastor. The population of the town in 1865 was 2,026, and its area 33,538 acres. The number of school districts is fifteen, employing the same number of teachers. The number of children of school age is 717 ; the number attending school 536 ; the average attendance 214, and the amount expended for school purposes during the 3^ear ending September 30th, 1869, was 13,528.57. TJ^OJT was formed as a tojvn, from RensselaerivycJc,'M.?LYQ\i 18, 1791. Brunswick and parts of Grafton and Lansingbui-gh were taken off March 20, 1807, and apart of Greenbush in 1836. A part of Brunswick was aniiexed in 1814. The first village charter was passed in 1791, and another one in 1798. The vil- lage was formally incorporated by an act of the Legislature, passed April 2, 1801. This charter conferred limited powers on five Trustees, but the power of levying taxes was reserved to the voters. In 1805 the Charter was revised and the Trustees were authorized to raise a tax of $1,500 for night watch, lighting streets, &c., and $1,000 for contingent exi)enses. The village GAZETTEER OF TOWNS, 121 contained four wards, each of which elected one Trustee, the President being appointed by the Governor and Council of ap- pointment. Edward Tylee was the President for several years succeeding the year 1805. The City Charter was granted April 12, 1816. Col. Albert Pa'wling was the first Mayor. A portion of Lansingburgh was annexed May 4, 1836. It lies upon the Hudson, near the center of the west border of the County. Its surface comprises the al- luvial flat, from half to three-fourths of a mile in width, along the river, and the high bluffs which border it on the east. The high land upon the east border of the City is known as Mount Ida, and that upon the north-east as Mount Olympus. Mount Ida is chiefly clay and has been the scene of several destructive land slides. Poesten Kil and Wynants Kil both break through these hills in narrow ravines, and in a series of cascades, form- ing an excellent water-power. The City is quite regularly laid out. River Street following the general course of the river, and the other streets at right angles to each other. It contains many beautiful residences and public buildings, and is noted for the enterprise of its inhab- itants and its extensive manufactures. It also contains the County Buildings, Eensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy Fe- male Seminary, Provincial Seminary, about forty churches, sev- eral extensive iron manufactories, paper and linen collar manu- factories, manufactories of optical and mathematical instru- ments, safes, cotton and woolen goods, paper, &c., and about 50,000 inhabitants. The Public Schools are under the charge of twenty Commis- sioners, elected for two years, one from each ward being elected annually. The schools are divided into four grades, viz., Pri- mary, intermediate. Grammar and High School Department, and are free to all residents of the City between the ages of five and twenty-one years. A school for colored children is estab- lished, aflFording facilities equal to those enjoyed by the mem- bers of the other schools. The number of teachers employed during the year ending Sept. 30, 1869, was 109. The number of persons between the ages of five and twenty-one years was 16,700; the number attending school, 10,420; the average at- tendance, 4,690. The number attending private schools was 2,183. The amount expended for teachers' wages, exclusive of the colored school, was $54,336.50; expenses of colored school, 11,906.62 ; the whole amount expended for all purposes,including teachers' wages, buildings, apparatus, &c., was $104,676.85. The number of school buildings is fourteen, all but one of which are of brick, estimated value Il53,200w The estimated value of school lots is $51,800. 122 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. The Troy Academy was incorporated May 5, 1834. It is locat- ed on State Street, corner of Seventh. T. Newton Willson is the Principal. The Troy Female Seminary is located on Second Street, ad- joining a beautiful park. The germ of this Seminary was start- ed in Middlebury, Vt., in 1814, by Mrs. Emma Willard. In 1819 it was removed to Waterford, N. Y., with the hope of se- curing aid from the State to establish a permanent institution. The expectations not being realized, and the school increasing to such an extent that no suitable building could be procured • for its accommodation, it was removed to Troy in 1 821, the City appropriating $4,000 for the erection of a building. It was in- , corporated May 6, 1837, and received under the care of the Re- gents Jan. 30, 1838. It has been enlarged at several different times, and for many years has enjoyed a national reputation, re- ceiving pupils from all parts of the United States. The Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, located on Eighth Street, .at the head of Broadway, was established in 1834 through the liberality of Stephen Van Rensselaer. The Institute embraces four separate courses of study, on completing which the student is entitled to an appropriate diploma. The curriculum em- braces a course of Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mining Engineering and Natural Science. . The Provincial Seminary is a theological institution under the control of the Roman Catholics. It is located upon the high- lands which overlook the City, and occupies the spacious build- ing and grounds formerly occupied by the Troy University. The main building is in the Byzantine style of architecture, 259 feet in length, with an average width of 58 feet, and four stories higli. St. Peter's College is also under the control of the Roman Catholics. The Troy Hospital was incorporated March 1, 1851. It was founded chiefly through the exertions of Rev. P. Havermans and is controlled by the Roman Catholics. The nurses belong" to the Sisters of Charity. A new building is in process of erec- tion on Eighth Street, a portion of which is already completed. The Marshall Infirmary for the insane is located a short dis- tance from tlie business portion of the City. It was incorpo- rated in 1851. The building and grounds, valued at $35,000, were donated by Benjamin Marshall, the founder. The Troy Orphan Asylum was incorporated April 10, 1835. — It was originally located on Grand Division Street, but during the great fire of May 1862, it was burned, and afterwards re- GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 123 built on Eighth Street, in the north part of the City. The Asyhim is supported by donations and State appropriations. St. Mary's Orphan Asylum is an institution connected with St. Mary's Church (Roman Catholic). The male department is under the charge of " The Brothers of the Christian Schools," and the female under that of the " Sisters of Charity." The Warren Free Institute, a school for indigent female children, was incorporated March 19, 1846. It is located on Eighth Street, at the head of Grand Division. It was founded and en- dowed by the Warren family. The Protestant Episcopal Church of the Holy Cross is connected with the Institute. The Troy Young Men's Association was organized December 22, 1834, with the following officers, viz : John T. McCoun, President; David L. Seymour, Henry Landon and Thomas Coleman, Vice Presidents ; John T. Lamport, Recording Secretary ; G-iles B. Kellogg, Corresponding Secretary ; and Charles E. Seymour, Treasurer. The first rooms occupied by the Association were at No. 197 River Street. The first an- nual meeting under the constitution was held February 16, 1835, at which time the Association numbered 450 members. — The Library at that time contained about 1,200 volumes, in- cluding 600 or 700 volumes loaned by the " Troy Library." The Association now occupy rooms in the Athenaeum Building. The Reading Room is furnished with the leading newspapers from all parts of the country, and the principal magazines, re- views, &c. The Library contains about 18,000 volumes. The Association sustain a course of lectures annually. In 1862 Mr. Wm. R. Yourt made the Association a bequest of 15,000, $3,000 of which were, by direction of his will, expended in books, un- der the direction of his executors, C. L. Alden and John Yourt. The remaining $2,000 were to be invested in good securities, the interest to be applied to making additions to the Alcove called after Mr. Yourt's name. In June 1868, Mr. G-. M. Tibbits made the Association a present of a fine bronze statu- ette of Abraham Lincoln. It was obtained by Mr. T. in Munich, during his travels in Europe. It is a reduced copy of a larger one cast for the city of Chicago. It is about two feet eleven inches high, and standing upon a neat pedestal three aud a half feet high, forms a very suitable ornament to the Library. We are indebted to the Librarian, Mr. F. H. Stevens, for the facts herein contained, as well as for the opportunity to consult the Library during the preparation of this work. There are several cemeteries in and around Troy, the largest and finest of which is 124 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. Oahtvood, situated on an eminence overlooking Troy, Albany, Lansingburgh, Waterford and Coboes. It lies chiefly in the town of Lansingburgh, contains many beautiful monuments, is laid out in good taste and kept in fine order. ' It is under the control of the Troy Cemetery Association. Mount Ida, Neiu Mount Ida and St. Mary's Cemeieries are lo- cated within the corporate limits of the City. The Troy Water Works were built by the City in 1833-4, and have since been extended as the necessities of the City demanded. The water is drawn from Piscawin Creek, and the reservoir is of suflficient hight to throw water to the top of most of the houses. The works are under the charge of Water Commis- sioners, and the rents are charged to property owners and col- lected with the taxes. The Troy Union R. R. Co. is composed of persons representing the interests of the Hudson River and ,N. Y. Central, Troy and Boston, and Eensselaer and Saratoga Railroads. A Union Depot was erected in 1853-4, 400 by 150 feet, walls 2^ feet high, and a roof composed of a single arch. It had a tower 110 feet high, and four complete suits of rooms and offices. This structure was burned in May 1862. A new building has been erected upon the same site and about the same size, though differing somewhat in style. It is located on Sixth Street, between Broad- way and Fulton Streets. The Troy Iron Works, of Messrs. Burden & Sons, located in the south part of the City, manufacture nails, railroad spikes, horse-shoes, merchant iron^ &c. The Troy Iron and Nail Fac- tory, incorporated in 1812, was the germ of the present exten- sive Works. Mr. Henry Burden became agent and manager of the Works in 1821, which at that time consisted of a small wood- en building, containing two water-wheels attached to a single pair of rollers for manufacturing nail and spike rods,. and a few machines for making nails. Mr. Burden was an ingenious me- chanic, and set about inventing and improving labor-saving machines, the result of which is some of tke most important in- ventions of the age. The upper works consist of the main building, containing the forge and rolling mill, and is 400 by 75 feet, built against the perpendicular face of the rock which forms the bank of the ravine. A stone structure, 46 by 130 feet, contains the horse-shoe machines, while attached are other buildings containing the spike and rivet factory, punching shop, foundry, machine shop, &c. These works are driven* by an immense over-shot wheel, sixty feet in diameter and twenty- GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. ^ 125 two feet in length, with buckets six'^feet four inches in depth, equal to 1000 horse power. A single spike machine turns out 45 railroad spikes per minute. Twenty puddling furnaces are also in the room. The machines for making horse-shoes turn out sixty shoes each per minute. The nail holes are punched by another machine. Some idea of the immense business in this department may be had from the fact that during four years ending with 1868 the Burden Works manufactured in round numbers twenty-five thousand tons of horse-shoes, or, at one and a half pounds per shoe, over thirty-three millions of shoes. The merchant iron from this establishment is of a supe- rior quality. The "Steam Works" of Messrs. Burden & Sons were commenced about 1862, and consist of blast-furnace, forge and rolling mills. They are located between the railroad and the Hudson River, on land that has been raised about eleven feet above the original level. The river has been dredged for about a mile and the navigation greatly improved. The Works give employment to about 1,500 workmen. The blast-furnaces have a capacity of about 75 tons per day. Albany Iron Works, owned by Erastus Corning and Erastus Corning, Jr., are located on the Wynants Kil, in the immediate vicinity of the Burden Works. In 1809 John Brinkerhoff, of Albany, erected a small foundry and rolling mill for converting Swede and Eussia iron bars into plates. These plates were sub- sequently partially cut into nails, the nails being headed by hand. Brinkerhoff transferred these Works to Corning, Win- slow & Co., who enlarged and run them for several years. The production in 1835 was six and a half tons per day. The Works assumed their present name in 1837. The Works are designated as the " Water Mill," " Steam Mill " and " Star Forge." The first puddling was done in 1838. There are now thirty-four puddling furnaces. The manufactures consist of merchant iron, railroad chairs, car axles, rivets, spikes, naiJs, horse-shoes, &c. About 750 hands are employed, at an expense of 1250,000 per year. The value of the merchant iron, railway car axles, chairs, &c., made annually, is about $1,750,000; value of rivets, spikes, &c., $400,000 ; nails 140,000 ; horse-shoes 140,000. The patent solid lip railroad chairs were invented here and have had an immense sale. Rensselaer Iron WorJc.s were started in 1846 by Le Grand Can- non and his son Le G-rand D. Cannon, and Peter A. Burden, with a capital of $100,000. The Works were subsequently greatly enlarged and the company re-organized. The present proprietors are John A. Griswold, Erastus Corning, Erastus 1S6 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. Corning, Jr., and Chester Griswold, They manufacture rail- road iron, merchant iron and steel, car axles, &c., and give em- ployment to between 500 and 600 hands. . They have blast-fur- naces at Hudson and Fort Edward. The annual product is valued at about 12,500,000. Bessemer Steel Works are owned and operated by the same company. •• The Manufactory of Civil Engineers' and Surveyors' Instru- ments, by W. & L. E, Gurley, is one of the largest in the country, and their instruments have no superior in the State. The Chain Works of J. B. Carr & Co., located in the upper part of the City, have been erected within the last few years and form an important item in the manufactures of the City. The Paper and Linen Collar Manufactories are numerous and extensive, giving employment to a large number of persons. In 1720 Derick Vanderheyden obtained from Van Eensselaer, the proprietor of Eensselaerwyck, the title to 490 acres of land lying between the Poesten Kil and Meadow Creek, and em- bracing the original allotments of Troy, paying an annual rent of three bushels and three pecks of wheat, and four fat fowls. This land was possessed by the grantee and his descendants, and portions of it were cultivated as a farm. It attracted but little attention until after the Revolution, when a few New Eng- landers persuaded the Dutch proprietors to lay out a portion of it into lots. About 1786, when the Yankees made their ap- pearance, there were three ancient brick dwellings within the present limits of the City. The most northern of these houses stood between Hoosick and Vanderheyden Streets, and a short distance east of Eiver Street. It was occupied by Jacob I. Van- derheyden, grand- son of the original lessee, and familiarly known as " Big Jacob." Jacob D. Vanderheyden, the proprie- tor of the middle farm, situated between Division and Grand Division Streets, occupied a residence at the south-west corner of Eighth and Grand Division Streets. He died in 1809, leaving several sons, one of whom built and occupied as a residence what is now the International Hotel, corner of River and Ferry Streets. The last was the residence of Matthias Vanderheyden, and is still standing at the south-east corner of Division and River Streets. From 1786 to 1790 the place was known by va- rious names, as Ferry Hook, Vanderheyden'' s Ferry and Ashley's Ferry. Stephen Ashley and Benjamin Covell were the earliest set- tlers under the Vanderheydens. They came in about 1786, and OAZETTEER OE TOWNS. 127 Mr. Ashley opened a tavern in the old farm house at the corner of Division and Eiver Streets. Among the other early settlers were Dr. Samuel Grale, Ephraim Morgan, John Boardman, Ben- jamin Smith, Philip Heartt,_ Anthony Goodspeed, Mahlon Tay- lor, Ebenezer Wilson and Samuel Wilson. In 1788 Elkanah Watson visited the place, passing from Sche- nectady, across a thickly settled country, embracing many fine farms, to " Ashley's Ferry," six miles above Albany. He says : " On the east side of the river, at this point, a new town has re- cently been laid out, named Vanderheyden, at the head of navi- gation. Several bold and enterprising adventurers have already settled here, and a number of capacious warehouses and several dwellings have already been erected." " It bids fair to be a se- rious thorn in the side of ISTew City, but in the issue a fatal ri- val." New City was the name by which Lansingburgh was called at that time. In the spring of 1789 the place contained five small stores and about a dozen dwellings. By vote -of the freeholders the village received the name of Troy, Jan. 5, 1789. On the organ- ization of Rensselaer County in 1791, a spirited contest was car- ried on between Troy and Lansingburgh for the location of the County Buildings. Dr. Samuel Gale came to Troy in 1787, from Killingworth, Conn. His family, consisting of a wife, a daughter and four sons, together with his furniture, medicines, &c., were placed on board a sloop, in August of this year, with the intention of set- tling in New City. Owing to adverse winds, he was three weeks in making the passage to Troy. Through the influence of J. D. Vanderheyden, who kindly offered him the use of half his own house until he could be otherwise provided for, he was in- duced to settle in Troy. He immediately commenced the erec- tion of a double frame house on the west side of River Street, below Ferry, where he lived until his death in 1799. His sons, Benjamin, John, Samuel and William, were among the early merchants. Samuel Gale was post master from 1804 to 1828. The post office was established in 1793 or 1794, and John Woodworth was the first post master, holding the office until 1800, when he was succeeded by David Buel. For several years Troy was a general depot for all mail matter throughout an ex- tensive region of country, north, east and west. Letters were carried to distant places by the newspaper post-riders, before mail routes and post offices were established. The publishers of the Albany 6^aze^/e established a line to Niagara and delivered letters free of expense, through their post-riders, to all places 128 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. on their route where there were no post offices. These riders traveled on horseback, and when the business was not sufficient to pay, subscriptions were sometimes raised for the purpose. The following is a copy of a post-rider's advertisement in the Northern Budget. We regret that we cannot give a fac-simile of the cut at its head : " News ! News f Aaron Oliver, Post-Rider, wishes to inform the public that he has extended his roiite and that he now rides through the towns of Troy, Pittstown, Hoosick, Mapleton, part of Bennington and Shaftsbury, Petersburgh, Stephentown, Greenbush and Schodack. All commands in his line will be re- ceived with thanks and executed with punctuality. He returns his sincere thanks to his former customers and' intends by un- abated diligence to merit a continuance of their favors." < " O'er rugged hills and valleys wide, He never yet has failed to trudge it ; As steady as the flowing tide, He hands about the Northern Budget." "June 18, 1799; During the first ten years after Troy had a name among the places of the earth, mills were erected and a considerable trade in lumber, pot and pearlashes was carried on with the towns at the north, and in Vermont. Mahlon Taylor erected a flouring mill on the Poesten Kil ; another was erected soon after, near Ida Falls, by Moses Vail ; and a third near the mouth of Wy- nants Kil, by Mr. Witbeck. Quite a numfeer of stores were erected on Eiver Street, between Broadway and Ferry Streets. The first brick dwelling erected after the commencement of the village, was by James Spencer, in 1795, on what is now Wash- ington Square. In 1799 four brick dwellings were erected, viz., No. 31 First, and 20 and 32 Second Street, and one at the cor- ner of Pi,iver and Washington Streets. In 1794 the population was estimated at from 400 to 500, and at the close of the cen- tury it amounted to 1,100 or 1,200, most of the dwellings being on First and Second Streets, and the stores on River. One of the stores on River Street was built and occupied by Abraham Ten Eyck, Albert Pawling and Conrad J. Elmendorf. Isaac Merritt occupied a store on the west side of River Street, near the site of the Troy House. Col. Albert Pawling was a native of Dutchess or Ulster Co., and son of Col. Levi Pawling, an efficient officer of the Revolu- tion. He joined the army in 1775 as Second Lieutenant in a regiment commanded by Col. James Clinton, and went to Can- GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 129 ada. He served under Montgomery and returned in 1776 with that unsuccessful expedition. He was appointed Brigade Major in 1786, under G-eneral G-eorge Clinton, and served until 1777, when he was promoted to be Major of one of the sixteen addi- tional regiments commanded by Col. William Malcom. He re- signed, notwithstanding the following letter from Washington, the original of which is in the Library of the Troy Young Men's Association : "Head Quarters Middlebrook, ) 2d March 1779. f "Sir, » In your letter of the 25th ult. you seem to have miscon- ceived the intention of Congress, upon which is founded your application for leave to resign. It is not their jsurpose to re- duce Col. Malcom's regiment. This will be incorporated with Col. Spencer's, and as you are the only Major in the two regi- ments, of course you will be continued. After considering the just claims which the country has on good officers I am per- suaded you will suspend your application. I am Sir, Your most h'ble serv't, Geo. Washingtoij." "Major Pawling." It is stated that Col. Pawling was a Colonel of a regiment pf Swiss, raised for the defense of the frontiers of New York, in which he served till the close of the War. The Warren family came to Troy from Connecticut at an early day and entered into mercantile business. Esaias, Na- than and Stephen occupied a store on River Street, and were engaged in the produce and carrying trade to New York.— Esaias was the first President of the Troy Bank. The McCoun family came in 1793 or '94 ; their store was nearly opposite the Mansion House. Philip Heartt was at an early day connected in business with Benjamin Smith and Joseph Eussel. Stephen Ashley kept an inn for two or three years at the place were he •first located, corner of River and Division • Streets. He after- wards removed to the corner of Ferry and River, to what was known afterwards as Babcock's Tavern. His sign had painted upon it a portrait of Washington in the center, and the words " Why here is Ashley's," surrounding the portrait. Jeremiah Prince opened a tavern near the Ferry in 1793. His son suc- ceeded him for many years. Howard Moulton kept a tavern on the site of the Female Seminary. 130 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. From copies of the Northern Budget published from 1805 to 1808, we have been able to learn the names and business of many of the prominent business men. Among the advertise- ments we find the following, dated June 11, 1805 : ''John E. Wool is just opening for sale a fresh and elegant assortment of fashionable Dry Goods," After enumerating a large number of articles, he adds, "likewise a good assortment of Groceries." " Said Wool assures his customers and the pub- lic that the above goods (with a very few exceptions) will be sold as low as they can be purchased in the city of New York for ready pay." E. Warren & Co. advertise "100 barrels of Connecticut Eiver Shad this day landing and for sale." The same firm also ad- vertise "25 hhds of St. Croix, Jamaica and Antigua Eum." — Jones, Smith & Co. advertise "Crockery, Glass and China Ware," saying that they have taken part of the store occupied by Heartt & Smith. Thoral Kilborn and Nehemiah Smith advertise Mer- chant Tailoring establishments. The paper contained a good assortment of news, though some of it would be regarded as rather old in these days of telegraphs and railroads. The paper of June 11th contained the account of the organization of the Massachusetts Legislature, which occured May 29th. Hon. Harrison Gray Otis was elected President of the Senate, and Timothy Bigelow Speaker of the House of Eepresentatives.— The publishers of the Budget, Messrs. Moflfitt & Lyon, call at- tention to the fact that they have recently "procured a new and very expensive set of types from the celebrated foundry of Dr. Winslow, Glasgow." They also call the attention of their de- linquent subscribers in the following manner, viz : "Unless cer- tain small strips of paper current at the banks are speedily enclosed to us, or other means of payment provided, all who are one year in arrears will have their paper discontinued in the course of a few weeks." Elam Lynds oifers ten dollars for a runaway apprentice to the hatting business. John Diefendorf and George Dunckel offer a reward of $80 for two runaway ne- groes, or 140 for either of them. The Fourth of July was duly celebrated, the utmost harmony, hilarity and good order prevail- ing throughout the day. An oration was delivered in the Pres- byterian Church, by J. L. Billings, " satisfying the most san- guine expectations of his audience." Among the toasts we se- lect the following as indicating the political proclivities of the times : "Our Sister State, New Hampshire — emerged from a long night of darkness, having burst asunder the Liliputian ties Avith which Federalism had bound her in her first slumbers." GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 131, "Massachusetts — she will shortly become a firm pillar in the Eepublic. Her triumph, though slow, is sure." ''Connecticut — struggling against the Union of Church and State, her accession to the Republican ranks, though last will not be least." Jonathan Huntington advertises a singing school at the White School House, a few rods south-east of tlie Court House, from six to nine o'clock on Thursday and Saturday evenings. December 3, 1805, Moses Craft advertises a House of Enter- tainment at the north end of the village, where he keeps the best of hay and stabling for thirty span of horses, and has a good yard for wagons and a store room for goods. He also kept a " Register Book " of goods to be carried into the country. Charles H. Wetmore advertises that he will open a school on " Monday, Jan. 6, 1806, in the chamber of the house now occu- pied by Capt. Webb, nearly opposite Mr. E. Pennimen's, in which will be taught, reading, writing, arithmetic, grammar and Latin and Greek. The utmost attention will be paid to the morals of the scholars." Piatt Titus advertises that the Troy & Albany stage runs twice a day, leaving his tavern at the upper end of First Street at 8 A. M. and 2 p. m. May 10, 1808, Daniel T. Wandell notifies the public that he has invented machinery for ferrying, which in the worst weather will propel a scow across the river in six minutes without hand labor and with perfect safety. He says he has applied for a pat- ent but does not describe his machinery. The following extract from the journal of Mr. John Lambert, an Englishman, who was traveling from Montreal to New York in 1807, gives some idea of the appearance of Troy at that time : "Troy is a well built town consisting chiefly of one street of handsome red brick houses, upwards of a mile and a half in length. There are two or three short streets which branch ofi* from the main one, but it is in the latter that all the principal stores, warehouses and shops are situated. It also contains sev- * eral excellent inns or taverns. The houses which are all new, are lofty and built with much taste and simplicity, though con- venience and accommodation seem to have guided the architect more than ornament. The deep red brick, well pointed, gives , the buildings an air of neatness and cleanliness seldom met with in old towns, but I cannot say that I admire it so much as the 132 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. yellow brick of England. Troy has been erected within the last twenty years and is now a place of considerable importance. The trade which it has opened with the new settlements to the northward through the States of New York and Vermont as far as Canada is very extensive, and in another twenty years it promises to rival the old established city of Albany. Its pros- perity is indeed already looked upon with an eye of jealousy by the people of the latter place." From Troy he went to Albany by stage, intending to take the steamboat for New York, but the river was closed by ice, and navigation suspended. He says : " We were much disappoint- ed at this news as we were very desirous of seeing the construc- tion and management of this celebrated vessel which travels at the rate (A five miles an hour against wind and tide. It was built about four years ago under the direction of Mr. Fulton, an American gentleman of great mechanical abilities. The length of the boat is 160 feet and her breadth in proportion so as not too much to impede her sailing.' The machine which moves her wheels is called a twenty-horse machine or equal to the jDower of so many horses, and is kept in motion by steam from a copper boiler eight or ten feet in length. The wheels on each side are similar to water wheels and under cover ; they are moved backwards and forwards, separately or together at pleasure." " Her route is between JSTew York and Albany, a distance of 160 miles, which she performs regularly twice a week, sometimes in the short space of thirty-two hours, exclusive of detention by taking in and landing passengers. She carries 100 to 120 peo- ple. Fare $7.00." Quite a contrast between this boat and those now running upon the same route. Several destructive land slides have occurred in Troy. The first one worthy of note occurred January 1, 1837. A large mass of the clayey earth from the hill east of the head of Washington Street, and extending for some distance each way, slid rapidly down, overwhelming everything in its course, covering several acres of ground and accompanied by a torrent of water. The mass carried with it two stables and three dwellings, crushing them into a thousand pieces. The stables and horses Avere moved over two hundred feet, into a hollow on the corner of Washington and Fourth Streets. A brick kiln was also de- stroyed by the avalanche. One of the dwellings was unoccupied, . another occupied by Mr. John Grace, wife and little boy. The parents were both killed but the boy escaped. Mrs. Leavenswortli 1 -. OAZETTEEB OF TOWNS. 133 and her children occupied another of the houses ; she was so badly injured that she survived but a short time. Her two children were crushed to a jelly. There were 23 horses in the stables, sixteen of which were killed. The earth was piled up in the street from ten to forty feet deep. An article in the Troy Budget of Jan. 2, says : "The scene that presented it- self in the early part of the evening was awful in the highest, degree. The horrors of an earthquake could not have presented a more dreadful spectacle." Another slide occurred Feb. 1 7, 1843, and was still more destructive to life and property. Be- tween thirty and forty persons were killed and ten dwellings were destroyed. The slide began about one hundred yards east of Fifth Street, destroyed two houses on the east side of the street and passed Washington to Hill, destroying the dwellings on both sides. The earth moved over a space of more than 500 feet after reaching the level ground. The width of the slide was from two to three hundred yards, covering an area of sever- al acres. On the 21st of the same month another slide oc- curred about equal to the first. This occurred' in the day time, and moved so slowly that there was no difficulty in avoiding its path. , » , Troy has several times been scourged by destructive fires. — On the 20th of June, 1820, a fire broke out in a shed near First Street and consumed the wealthiest portion of the City. The buildings on both sides of Eiver Street, from a point oppo- site the Troy House to a point within a hundred feet of Con- gress, were entirely destroyed ; also the west side of First, from the third door above Congress, to Eiver Street. The loss was estimated at $370,000. On the 25th of August 1854, another destructive fire occurred, destroying property to the amount of ^a,000,000. The most destructive fire occurred on the 10th of May, 1862. Iti^' occurred at mid-day and commenced in the Eailroad Bridge. The wind was blowing violently from the north-west, and thousands of burning shingles and other light materials were scattered before the wind, causing the fire to spread in a fearful manner. The Fire Department were power- less to stay its progress and at one time it seemed that all the central and south-eastern portion of the City was doomed. — More than one-fourth of the business portion of the City was burned and between 50 and 60 acres were covered with smould- ering ruins at sunset, of that memorable day. Several lives were lost and 671 buildings were burned. The loss was esti- mated at $3,000,000. Three churches, several hotels, the Poly- technic Institute, the Troy Academy, Orphan Asylum and the Union Depot were burned. .34 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. The early settlers of Troy were religious men, and public worship was held when the inhabitants were but few. The first services were held in a store, and afterwards a school house was their place of worship, where the people were called together by the sound of a conch-shell. Sermons were read by Dr. Gale or Col. Pawling. In 1791 the frame for a house of worship was erected, and the next year it was inclosed and soon after occu- pied. This was. the first edifice of the First Presbyterian Church. Rev. Jonas Coe was the first pas- tor, officiating several years at Troy and Lansingburgh on alter- nate Sabbaths. He was ordained and installed June 25, 1793. He resided at Lansingburgh during the early years of his min- istry, but about 1802 he removed to Troy. After holding the united charge for r early eleven years, the two congregations were dissolved and Mr. Coe continued pastor of the Church in Troy, until his death in 1822. He was succeeded by Rev. Dr. Beeman, whose successor was Rev. M. R. Vincent, the present pastor. During the latter part of the last century the currency of the country was specie, and the weekly colle^ctions in the churches were so small, on account of the scarcity of small change, that the First Presbyterian Church of Albany passed a resolution, Jan. 4, 1790, "That one thousand coppers be stamped, Church Penny, and placed in the hands of the Treasurer for the purpose of exchanging with the members of the congregation at the rate of twelve for one shilling, in order to add respect to the weekly collections." It is probable that the same necessity gave rise to paper money, which was issued by the First Presbyterian Church of Troy in 1792. The following is the form in which their church scrip was issued : I "Two Pence. » "By order of the Trustees of the Presbyterian Congregation in Troy, I promise to pay the bearer Two Pence on demand. B. Gorton, Treasurer." "August 28th, 1792." St. John^s Episcopal Church was erected in 1804, The Baptist Church on Third Street was erected in 1805. St. Jean Baptiste Church was organized in 1868 by Rev. Geo. Brown, with about 1500 members. A church edifice has been erected at a cost of $40,000, and capable of seating 900. The GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 135 church belongs to the French Catholics of the City. Services are held in Latin and in French ; no English is spoken. The State Street M. E. Church, the first of that denomination erected in the City, was built in 1807 and 1 809. The first class was formed in 1801, Stephen Andress being a prominent mem- ber of the same. This class was broken up and scattered, one of its members finding a lodging in the State Prison. In 1804 John Wright removed to Troy, and on inquiring if there were any Methodists there, was answered, "No, there were some but I believe they have all been sent to the State Prison." He how- ever found a small number worshiping in a private house. It is not known at what time the class was reorganized, but Ben- jamin Betts, who died in 1804 or 1805, was a member, as was also Caleb Curtis. Andress, Betts and Curtis were among the first members. As already stated their first house of worship was erected on State Street and accommodated all the members for twenty years. Troy first appears as an appointment in 1810, when Dr. Phoebus was the preacher. In 1813 Laban Clark, and in 1815, Tobias Spicer were the preachers. The charge at that time included Troy, Albia, West Troy, Lansingburgh and Brunswick, the entire' membership being 107. At the close of Mr. Spicer's term of service he reported 250 members. In 1827 a new church was erected on State Street and has been occupied until the present time. A fine stone church is now in process of erection near the site of the old one, estimated to cost 160,000. North Second Street M. E. Church was erected in 1835. ft Congress Street Church in 1848. The Farmers' Bank of Troy was incorporated in 1801. The charter extended to 1811 and provided that the capital stock should consist of five thousand shares of $50 each, and the whole amouift of property to be held by the Bank was limited to $300,000. The Directors, were to be selected from the follow- ing towns, viz., two from Waterford, five from Lansingburgh and six from Troy. The first Directors were Guest Van Schoon- hover and Samuel Stewart, from Waterfo'rd; Elijah Janes, Charles Selden, John D. Dickinson, James Hickok and William Bradley, from Lansingburgh ; John Woodworth, Daniel Merritt, Benjamin Tibbitts, Christopher Hutton, Townsend McCoun and Ephraim Morgan, of Troy. The charter provided that the buildings should be erected near the road leading from Troy to Lansingburgh, not further north than Mill Creek, and not fur- 136 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. flier south than the house of Joshua Eaymoud. John D. Dick- inson was the first President', and Hugh Peebles, Cashier. The books were opened for subscriptions, May 13, 1801, and May 31, 1803, the Bank declared a dividend of four and a half per cent., although the whole stock had not been paid in. This was the first bank in Troy, where there are now fifteen, including four Savings Banks. DEALERS IN CHOICE GROCERIES AND PROVISIONS. We keep constantly on hand a large stock of Goods.

Wheeler Jk Wilson Sewing Macliine.rr-A Sewing Machine in the family is not a foolish toy, but a really use- ful worker. It will save the time and health of ten women and do the work much easier and better. The Wheeler & Wilson Machine has securedand justly maintains a high reputation for sewing all kinds of ma- terial, and is a marvel of beauty in model and finish. It works equally well upon Silk, Linen, Cotton or Woolen goods, and does its work with a strength and beauty supe- rior to any hand work. The Scientific American says that "in point of effective work it is without a rival." The Editor of the JVew York Evangelist, says : " In our family we use one of Wheel er & Wilson's Sewing Machines, and can not imagine anything more perfect. It is very beautiful, simple in its construction, easily managed, not liable to get out of order, has a quiet movement and will do the work of a dozen female hands." The proprietors claim that the "Wheeler & Wilson Machine makes the only stitch that answers precisely the conditions required. It cannot be raveled or ripped, and forms a ernm alike on both sides of the fabric, served with greater econ- omy of thread, more firm, durable and beautiful than hand sewing. It stands the wear and teat of constant use better than any other machine, and will last a lifetime. For manufacturing purposes it is unequal- ed, and is the only machine that will stand the severe test of steam power as applied by the collar and shirt business of the city of Troy and vicinity." Andrew Aird & Bros., 380 River St., up stairs, Troy, N. Y., are the agents. Their card may be found on the Map of the County, accompanying .this work. W. & ^j. E.

Taylor, manufacturer of Fine Shirts, Berlin, N. Y., advertises on page 224. We take pleasure in calling the atten- tion of our readers to this advertisement, as Mr. T. is one of the oldest and largest Shirt manufacturers in this County. He did not engage in the manufacture of cus- tom work until forced to do so by the re- peated solicitation of business men in Troy and vicinity. Among his prominent cus- tomers may be named James Hendrick, President of Hope Bank, Albany- John H. Plagg, Legislative Clerk, U. S. Senate ; Hon. H. D. Barron, 5th Auditor, U. 8. Treasury; Thomas Coleman, President First National Bank, Troy, and many oth- ers who assure us that they are well satisfied with the quality, finish and price of his goods. He sells from 6 to 12 dollars per dozen less than retail dealers. Mr. T. uses over 100 Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Machines, some of which are driven by a caloric engine. He employs none but the best of operators, and turns out from 100 to 200 dozen per week. The Troy Dally Whig, is one of the oldest newspapers in the County, and the only morning paper in this part of the State, north of Albany. Its advantages to the business and reading portion of the community are duly set forth in an adver- tisement on page 184. The weekly edition is a valuable family paper. The Book and Job Printing department is furnished with all the facilities for doing first-class work. By calling at 219 River Street, Troy, a'. W.

There has proba- bly never been a time since our mother Eve first made a garment of fig leaves, that the ladies have paid so much attention to dress as at the present time. Say what we may about the folly of extravagant display, no one can help admiring the taste dis- played in the beautiful dresse'fe of the pres- ent day. It is vain to attempt to describe the endless variety of trimming, draping and looping of the dresses seen in the streets every day, and to estimate the cost would require a skillful mathematician.— But the great question with the ladies is, " where can I procure the most stylish suit?" The answer is found by calling at Sills', second story of 10 and 12 Broadway, where they will find some of the richest and most fashionable goods in the city. The display of shawls is such as to satisfy the most fastidious. To all of our patrons we say call at Sills' before purchasing, and see if we have misrepresented the case. Walter A.Wood's Reaping andMow- ing Machines, advertised inside first cover, have been before the country for several years. These machines have been brought to a great degree of perfection, and the im- mense sales have compelled the manufac- turers to enlarge their works from time to time, until they have become the largest in the world. The demand for this and foreign countries is constantly increasing, and the Medals and First Premiums that liave been awarded these Machines in England,' France and America, far surpass those received by any other' machines. Over 120,000 of them have already been sold. They are manufactured at Hoosick Falls, N. Y., by the Walter A. Wood Mowing and Reaping Machine Company. Their manu- factory was destroyed by fire in March 1870, and before the remains were cold, the plan for a new building was arranged, and in less than two weeks, work was commenced in the new building. The facilities for manufacturing are such that one hundred machines can be made daily. The Troy Eagle Dye House was established in 1837, and since 1844 has been under the proprietorship of C. W. Shack- lady. The reputation of the establishment during this time has been such as to draw in custom from a wide extent of territory. Thousands of dollars have been saved by having garments cleaned and dyed, making them almost as good as new, when other- wise they would be valueless.

The Troy Agricultural Ware- house and Seed Store, advertised on page 264, was started in the spring of 1842, by Mr. Henry Warren. It was the first exclusively agricultural store established in this County. It was at first opened in a small building above the bridge. The business gradually increased until 1857, when Mr. George M. Taylor became a partner, since which the firm has been Warren & Taylor. To meet the demands of their increasing business, they erected last fall a large building at the foot of Grand Division Street. It is about 62 feet square, four stories high in front, and five in the rear.

By means of this improvement, hot air only is admitted to the grate, thereby making the combustion perlect and saving at least one-third of the fuel. Those who are now using the Olive Branch will be glad to learn that this improvement can be attached to their Stoves at a very small expense. Their assortment of Stoves is such as to meet the demand of the trade. Charles W.
