III. TRANSFER OF MEMBERS. This church will examine those members who apply for admission from other churches. It will give dismission of its members in regular standing, on their application, and recommend them to the fellowship of other churches. Members of this church, removing from the city, skall be required to obtain their dismission within six months from the time of their removal, unless cir- cumstances be such as to render a union with any other church inexpedient ; and in such case they shall inform the church why they had not requested a remo- val of their church connection. And it shall be the duty of the clerk to report to the church, at the an- nual meeting, the names of the members of this church who shall have removed from the city; where they are, so far as may be known ; and the length of time they have been from the city; with any other information which he may possess in relation to
-
21
them, and which he may think will be useful to the church.
DO It is expected that members of other churches, who may wish to commune with this church for more than six months, will request a removal of their con- nection to us, unless they give satisfactory reasons for delay, to the examining committee.
IV. RIGHTS OF MEMBERS. Every member has a right to church privileges, unless forfeited by mis- conduct ; and when thus forfeited, he can be deprived of them only by a regular process. When accused, he has a right to know the explicit charges, and to have an open and candid hearing. No vote of cen - sure shall be passed upon any member, except by the concurrence of a majority of the members present at a regular meeting, when previous notice of the ob- ject of such meeting shall have been given.
V. DUTIES OF THE CHURCH AND ITS MEMBERS .-- It is the duty of this church and its members to con- sult and seek the concurrence of their pastor, in mat- ters of discipline and internal regulations. It is the duty of the members to attend such stated meetings as are appointed by a vote of the church, unless prov- identially prevented. Any member having cause of complaint against another, should immediately seek to have it removed in a Christian manner, Matt. 18th chap., 15th and 16th verses, being our guide, espe-
22
cially in cases of personal offence. Any member wishing to withdraw from this to another church or denomination, should signify his wishes and his rea- sons, and apply in a proper spirit to be first releas- ed from his obligations to this church. Any other mode of withdrawing will be deemed irregular and censurable. And this church holds itself bound to grant dismissions and recommendations to members in good standing, who conscientiously prefer any other evangelical denomination of Christians, when they apply as stated above.
VI. OFFENCES. This church considers immoral conduct, breach of express covenant vows, neglect of acknowledged religious or relative duties, and avowed disbelief of the articles of faith to which the members have assented, as offences subject to the discipline of the church, and to excommunication, when efforts to . bring to repentance have proved unvailing.
VII. EVIDENCE. 'The confession of the party ac- cused, the concurrence of two competent witnesses to the same fact, or circumstantial evidence to the same amount, shall be deemed sufficient for conviction.
VIII. PERMANENT OFFICERS. The permanent offi- cers of this church are the pastor or pastors, and the deacons.
To the pastor pertains the office of Moderator. It shall be the duty of the deacons to preside in the ab- sence of the pastor, to assist in the administra- tion of the Lord's Supper, to distribute the chari-
-
-
23
ties of the church, and to aid the pastor generally in the spiritual care of the flock.
IX. ANNUAL OFFICERS AND STANDING COMMIT- TEES. At the annual meeting for business, the fol- lowing officers and committees shall be chosen for the ensuing year :
1. A clerk, to keep the records of the church.
2. A treasurer, to collect the subscriptions, to take charge of all moneys belonging to the church ; to pay the salary of the pastor, and the monies voted by the church ; and to make quarterly reports to the church, and a general report at the annual meeting.
3. Two auditors, to examine the treasurer's ac- counts.
4. An examining committee, of which the pastor and deacons shall constitute a part, who shall ex- amine all applicants for admission, and present, in a written report, the names of such as they approve.
Also to act as a committee of inquiry and disci- pline.
5. A prudential committee, to attend to the sec- ular concerns of the church.
6. A committee on music, to superintend the singing of this church.
-
STANDING RULES.
1. All meetings for business shall be opened with prayer.
2. The annual meeting for the choice of officers and standing committees shall be in January, at such time as the prudential committee shall appoint. And quarterly meetings for the transaction of bu- siness, on Wednesday evening next preceding the first Sabbaths of November, February, May and Au- gust.
3. The payment of subscriptions shall be made monthly, on communion Sabbath.
4. All standing committees and annual officers shall be chosen by ballot.
5. Candidates for admission are to be first pro- pounded to the church, and notice shall be given to the congregation of such as are expected to make a profession, at least one week previous to profession.
6. All persons admitted to the church shall be re- quired to sign our confession of faith.
25
7. The church will observe the sacrament of the Lord's supper on the afternoon of the first Sabbath of every month. Ordinance of baptism to infants administered, also.
8. The church meets on Friday evening for de- votional exercises and religious conference, to pro- mote their growth in Christian knowledge and grace.
ALTERATIONS. No alteration shall be made in the foregoing principles and rules, unless at a regu- lar meeting of the church, it having been proposed at the next regular meeting previous, and by vote of three fourths of the members present.
FINANCES.
1. Every member of the church, (unless in abso- lute poverty,) is in duty bound, and is expected to contribute monthly to the support of public worship, according to his ability. Several meinbers are able to give from 1 to $10 per week ; most can give 12 1-2 cents per week ; there are but few who can- not contribute 6 1-4 ets. ; but those who cannot give more than 1 cent per week, should contribute that amount, as it is desirable that all should participate in the support of public worship.
2. The treasurer will ascertain the amount that each one is willing to contribute, on his admission to the church, and shall take a memorandumn showing his residence and his subscription.
3. Every member is requested to wrap the amount of his monthly subscription in a piece of paper, with his name on it, and the amount enclosed, and put the same in the collection box every com- munion Sabbath. It is hoped that the members will
27
be punctual in doing this ; it will save much time in collecting. The treasurer will keep an account of those who pay, and those who do not.
4. Whenever any member changes his residence he is requested to put a memorandum of the same in the collection box, that the treasurer may keep a correct register of the residence of all the members.
5. If any member should wish at any time to alter the amount of his superscription, he will put a note in the collection box, signifying the same.
6. The treasurer shall report to the church quar- terly, at the regular church meeting in May, August, November, and February, the state of the finances of the church-the amount of delinquencies, and whe- ther the amount subscribed is sufficient to meet the expenses ; so that the church may not get in arrears without knowing it.
DIRECTIONS FOR KEEPING TREASURER'S BOOK.
The treasurer's account of the monthly subscriptions for the support of public worship, may be conveni- ently kept by a book, containing the names of all the church members in alphabetical order, each page be- ing ruled into parallel columns for the

OBJECTS OF BENEVOLENCE.
This church recognizes, as within the sphere of its benevolence, the following objects, viz .-
Foreign Missions, Home Missions, Education of Young Men for the Ministry, Distribution of Bibles and Tracts, Sabbath Schools, Seamen's Cause, the Abolition of Slavery, and the promotion of Temper- ance, Purity, and Peace.
Collections will be taken, from time to time, in be- half of these objects, under the direction of the Pas- tor and Deacons, and their appropriation decided by vote of the Church.
" God loveth a cheerful giver."
" Give, and it shall be given to you again."
" There is that giveth and yet increaseth ; there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty."
" Faith without works is dead, being alone."
" Brethren, be not weary in well doing, for in due season, ye shall reap, if ye faint not."
" Freely ye have received, freely give," and " the blessing of many shall come upon you," in " the day in which God shall try the secrets of the heart by Jesus Christ."

QUESTIONS FOR SELF-EXAMINATION.
The following questions are affectionately recom- mended to the prayerful and frequent perusal of each member of this church.
1. Are you in the practice of daily secret prayer ?
2. Are you in the practice of daily family prayer ?
3. Do you pray every day that God would bless his truth to the conviction and conversion of sinners ?
4. Do you sincerely desire and pray for the salva- tion of the children and youth committed to your care ?
5. Do you feel a readiness to forgive and pray for your enemies ?
6. Do you pray daily for the pastor and officers of this church ?
7. Do you do something every day to bring sin- ners to repentance ? And are you in the daily prac- tice of intercessory prayer for individuals of your ac- quaintance who are unconverted ?
8. Do you daily, with a prayerful desire to im- prove in Christian knowledge, read the word of God ? And do you understand and prize its doctrines and ordinances ?
9. Do you keep the Sabbath holy ? At what hour do you rise on its holy morning ? How much of its
32
time do you devote to business, worldly conversation, and dress ? How much to your soul ?
10. Do you make it a matter of conscience to at- tend, when not providentially prevented, all the meet- ings of the church for social worship ?
11. Are you connected with the Sabbath School, or the Bible Classes ? And do you do any thing to sustain them, and induce others to attend ?
12. Have you solemnly consecrated all you have, and are, to the Lord ? Do you esteem it a privilege to deny yourself for Christ's sake ? Is it a pleasure rather than a grief, to be asked to contribute to ad- vance his kingdom ? Do you do, conscientiously, all you can, by your pecuniary ability, to promote his kingdom ?
13. What is the prevailing tenor of your conver- sation ? is it spiritual or worldly-serious or trifling ?
14. With whom do you associate as your intimate friends-with the believers or the unbelievers in ex- perimental religion- with the prayerful or the pray- erless-with the friends of Christ or his enemies ? And of whom do you seek advice on questions of duty ?
15. Are you at peace with all who love Christ ?
16. Are you as tender of the reputation of a broth- er as of your own ? Do you cultivate a spirit of ten- derness towards the failings and imperfections of your brethren ? What feelings do you cherish to-
33
wards the Church ? Do you speak just as you should do, of its officers, its members, its proceedings, its covenant obligations ? Had you rather suffer, than needlessly be the occasion of injuring its influ- ence and of causing reproach ?
17. Do you keep your tongue from speaking evil of a brother ; and if, in any thing, you are displeased with him, do you follow the gospel rule, and tell him your feelings between him and yourself alone ? Do you watch over and pray for your brethren and sis- ters, individually and particularly, according to your covenant engagements ? When you are not person- ally acquainted do you seek out their acquaintance ? When any are sick, or afflicted, or in want, do you visit them and fulfil the apostolic injunction, " Bear ye one another's burdens ?" In fine, is all your in- tercourse with your fellow disciples such, that a stranger, witnessing it, would say, " See how these Christians love one another ? "
18. Is your zeal for God periodical or constant ?__ according to occasions and excitements, or according to knowledge and abiding habit ? Is its spring of ac- tion, self, " our Church," or love for Christ ?
19. Is your adoption of the gospel an intelligent one ? Do you understand, and can you state and defend its great truths ? Have you added to your faith virtue, and to virtue knowledge, so that you can defend the truth and put to silence ungodly men, 3
34
meekly instructing those that oppose themselves ; or are you a babe, " unskilful in the word of righteous- ness ? "
20. Do you make it a matter of conscience never to visit any place of amusement, or social pleasure, on which you cannot first ask the divine blessing, or where it may be deemed intrusive to introduce the subject of religion ?
21. Do you love God above every thing else ? Do you love his holy law ? Do you hate sin, because it is enmity to God ? Do you feel that God would be just in your eternal condemnation ? Do you submit, unconditionally, to the government of God ? Do you rely upon and confide in Jesus Christ alone for sal- vation ? Do you give yourself away, in the cove- nant of grace, as belonging entirely to God ?
22. Have you examined your habits, and become sure that you do not retain any that are wrong ? Have you searched out and subdued every evil pro- pensity ? Do you understand and fully appreciate all the responsibilities that rest upon you, in relation to a lost world ? Have you settled the question, whether it be not your duty to go as a missionary among the Heathen ? Do you cherish and cultivate all the Christian graces, in due proportion ?
23. Is your life such, in all respects, as to convince the world that you are a holy man ? Does your ha- tred of your own sins daily increase ? Is sin habit-
35
1825684
ually a loathing to you ? Does your delight in the duty of secret, social, and public worship, increase ? Do your meditations of heaven become more sweet, refreshing, and constant ? Do you feel more and more anxious for final deliverance from all transgres- sion, and all liability to transgress ?
24. Have you as clear views of the infinite purity of the divine law, as you ought to have ? Have you as clear and full a knowledge of all the obligations under which you are placed by divine grace, as you ought to have ? Do you continually exercise all the fortitude, zeal, patience, self-denial, humility, forbearance, tenderness, compassion, broth- erly-kindness, love to enemies, diligence, considera- tion, promptitude, faith, hope, joy, fear, confidence in God, perseverance, forgiveness, activity, moderation temperance, and every other Christian virtue, in all circumstances, which you ought to exercise ? Do you love God with all your heart, and your neighbor as yourself, in such a manner, that you know the eye of God cannot detect the least deficiency, for a single moment ? Do you always pray, and labor, and con- verse, with all the fervor, circumspection, faith and zeal, you ought to? Do you never think more high- ly of yourself, or of your own interest, than you ought to think ? Do you never exercise any vanity, or dis- respect to others, or inordinate affection ? Do you, every day, do all for the glory of God and the good of man, which you ought to do ?
36
25. Will you read these questions, at least once every week, and pray God to search your heart, in respect to the several points of experience and duty suggested by them ?
