The Assay Office occupies an unassuming marble building adjacent to the Custom House, formerly one of the branches of the United States Bank. Its operations are elsewhere noticed. See p. 122.
1 Under the first race of colonists the style of architecture was an exact copy of that prevailing in Holland ; and for many years New York was noted for buildings with peaked gables, tiled roofs, and high, wooden stoops. After the English con- quest, a greater variety in style was introduced. Of late years the march of improvement has completely obliterated the old style of houses, and scarcely a vestige of the olden time re- mains. One of the most interesting relics of the infancy of New York now remaining is a venerable pear tree at the corner of 13th St. and 3d Avenue, formerly on the farm of Governor Peter Stuyvesant. It is widely known as "The Stuyvesant Pear Tree."
2 The first fort was huilt in the rear of Trinity Church. near the river, and portions were found in 1751 by some workmen in digging through a bank. The next fort stood on what is now the Bowling Green, then a high mound of earth overlook- ing the bay and adjacent country. A threatened invasion hy the forces of Cromwell, in 1663, led to the construction of an embankment and ditch across the then x. line of the city. This fortification extended along the present line of Wall St .: and from it that street derives its nmine. In 1692 a war with France occasioned a further attention to the defenses of the city. and led to the erection of a battery on the rocky point at the s. end of the island. A sione fort, with 4 bastions, afterward built at the same place, included most of the Government offices, and bore the name of the reigning sovereign for the time being. It renmined until finally taken down in 17SS. In the summer of 1776. while an attack was expected from the British army, the city was strongly fortified. On the s. point was the Grand Battery. of 23 guns, with Fort George Battery, of 2 gons. just above it and near the Bowling Green. MeDeugall's Battery, of
4 guns, was built on a little hill near the North River, a little w. of Trinity Church. The Grenadiers' or Circular Battery, of 5 guns, was above, and the Jersey Battery, of 5 guns, on the left of the latter. On the E. of the town were Coenties Battery, of 5 guns, on Ten Eyck's wharf; Waterbury's Battery, of 7 guns, at the shipyards; Badlam's Battery, of 8 guns, on Rutgers Hill, near the Jews' burial ground; Thompson's Battery, of 9 guns. at Hoorners Hook, and the Independence Battery. on Bayards Mount, corner of Grand and Center Streets. Breastworks were erected in several places in the city, and fortifications were erceted on Governors Island, Paulus Hook, (Jersey City,) Brooklyn Heights, and Red Ilook. During the War of 1812-15 great apprehension prevailed at several times, and during the first year bodies of militia were stationed in New Utrecht aud on Staten Island to repel any attempt on the part of the enemy to land. Subsequently, fortifications were begun at Harlem, and in Brooklyn volunteer companies were formed, and the citizens generally became familiar with the discipline of the camp and the duties of the soldier. In Aug. 1814, for the pur- pose of constructing a line of fortifications to prevent the ex- peeted approach of the enemy, it was arranged that 3 military companies of Brooklyn should turn out to work on Monday. 3 military companies and 1 fire company on Tuesday, the people of Bushwick on Wednesday. of Flatbush on Thursday, of Flat- lands on Friday, of Gravesend on Saturday, of New Utrecht on Monday, and the Mechanics' Society of Brooklyn. the mili- tary exempts. and 2 fire companies, on Tuesday. The patriotic diggers crossed the ferries every morning with banners and music, and large parties worked in the night by moonlight. The citizens of New York were not behind their neighbors in patriotism, and numerous volunteer associations pressed their services upon the Committee of Defense, without regard to party or station in life, and the rich and the poor wrought together with the most patriotic emulation. Many gave money freely to the work, and these zealous labors continued so long as there appeared reason to anticipate danger. During the same month the General Government maude a requisition for 20,000 militia from New York and New Jersey to repel an attack which was reported to be in preparation. The funds to meet the expenses were raised by the city, but were repaid by the General Government the next year. Four hundred heavy cantion were mounted on the various forts, and large quantities of ammmmmition were collect. J. The fleet in charge of Commo- dore Decatur was also prepared for the emergency; and it is probable that these prompt preparations saved the city from au attack. Toward winter the hostile fleet bore off to the south. and the enemy closed their operations before New Orleans. Où " Evacuation Day" in 1814 the Governor reviewed 25,000 troops in New York,-a larger ummber than ever before or since mustered in one body in America

sioned great uneasiness. This city was among the first to feel the effects of the arbitrary measures of Great Britain, and was among the earliest to resist their tendencies.1 The aristocratie element was probably stronger in this city than in any other part of America; and this was arrayed in favor of the British measures and against the "Sons of Liberty." Many prominent citizens, who had warmly sympathized with the popular movement in the hope of gaining redress of grievances, at length yielded their opposition when there appeared no alternative but war, and continued active or quiet friends of the Royal Government while it lasted. Several members of the first Provincial and Continental Congress afterward became friends of the king. The British forees took possession of the city immediately after the battle upon Long Island, Aug. 26, 1776, and remained until Nov. 25, 1783. The anniversary of this last event, known as "Evacuation Day," is still held in grateful remembrance, and is usually celebrated by military parade or other cere- monies.
In 1785 the first Congress of the United States after the war met in this city and held its ses- sions in the City Hall, corner of Wall and Nassau Streets. In the gallery of this building, facing Broad St., Gen. Washington was inaugurated first President, April 30, 1789. The New York Legislature returned to this city in 1784 and continued its sessions with intervals until finally re- moved to Albany with the State offices in 1797. The Port of New York was made a port of entry soon after the peace. Its revenues were collected under the State Government till 1789, but have since formed a most important source of income to the Federal Government. The receipts from customs at this port considerably exceed those of all the other commercial cities of the Union together, and defray nearly one-half the expenses of the General Government. In the midst of its general prosperity the city has had seasons of adversity .? At different times destructive fires have occurred, which have for a time seriously retarded business.
1 The principal events which occurred in the city during the | .tronbles leading to the Revolution are briefly as follows :- 1765, "Sons of Liberty" were organized to oppose the Stamp Act.
1765, Oct. 31 .- committee of correspondence with other colo- nies was appointed.
1765, Nov. 1 .- The Stamp Act took effect, and popular excite- ment became extreme. The Lieut. Governor was burned in effigy before the fort.
1765, Dec. 26 .- The ship Minerva was boarded by the Sons of Liberty in search of stamp paper. The paper was traced to a brig soon after, and ten packages were seized and burned.
1766, June 29 .- The Assembly petitioned for a bronze statue of Pitt to be erected.
1766, Oct. 18-22 .- The liberty pole on the Common (Park) was repeatedly destroyed. and there was inninent dauger of a collision between the populace and the troops.
1770, Jan. 13 .- New attempts were made to destroy the liberty pole, and the soldiers became riotous.
Jan. 17 .- At a meeting of 3.000 citizens, resolutions were passed not to submit to the acts of oppression. Jan. 18 .- A collision took place between the soldiers and citizens at Golden Hill.
" Jan. 30 .- The Corporation forbade the erection of a new liberty pole, and the people soon after planted one on their own land, inscribed "Liberty and Property."
" March 29 .- Another attack was made upon the pole, which excited great indignation, and led toits being nightly guarded. until May 3.
May .- A committee of lo was formed to resist the importation of goods under the obnoxious laws ; but they receded from their purpose July 9, aud agreed to import every thing but tea.
" Aug. 21 .- A leaden equestrian statne of George III. was erected in Bowling Green. This statue was thrown down by the populace on the receipt of the Declaration of Independence. July 10. 1776. It was subsequently melted up into bullets in the family of Gov. Wolcott, of Connecticut. It is said that 42.000 bullets were made frion the metal. and these did service against 400 British soldiers afterward sent into Coun. by Gov. Tryon.
" Sept. 7 .- A marble statne of Pitt was placed in Wall Street. in gratitude for his services in the re- peal of the St unp Act. In consequence of the course of Pitt after he became Lord Chathamn. this statue was inntilated by a mob May 21, 1772, and. having become an unsightly. head- legs trunk, it was removed, uuder au sct of | 1846; and Franklin, 1849.
March 7, 1788. It is now preserved iu the Fifth Ward Hotel, West Broadway.
1773, Nov. 5-The Committee of Vigilance denounced the im- portation of tea and agreed to resist its landing.
1774, April 21 .- A vessel laden with tea arrived at Sandy Hook, bnt was not permitted to land : and in a few days it was sent back to London. About the same tune 18 chests of tra privately brought into port were destroyed.
" May 19 .- A great meeting was held in the " Fields." st which strong revolutionary resolutions were passed. A committee of 51 were appointed ; but the next day a majority of them receded from their position, and the Whigs requested their names to be struck off.
1775, April 3 .- The Colonial General Assembly finally ad- journed.
" July 25 .- Delegates wero elected to the Continental Con- gress.
Aug. 23 .- Capt. Lamb was ordered by Provincial Congress to remove the cannon from the battery in the city for the forts in the Highlands. Resist- ance was offered from the Asia man-of-war, stationed off the battery; but 21 pieces-all that were mounted-were safely carried away. 2 Two dreadful fires occurred while the city was in possession of the enemy. On the 21st of Sept. 1776, a fire spread from Whitehall Slip w. of Broadway. s. of Barclay Street, burning 492 houses, or one-eighth of the entire city. Another broke out on Cruger's Wharf, Aug. 7. 1778. which burned 300 houses in Great and Little Dock and the adjacent streets. Commissioners were appointed May 4. 1784, to settle claims to the soil and lay out streets in these burned districts. Destructive fires have since occurred, as follows :-
1811, May 19 .- Upon Chatham Street 80 to 100 buildings were burned.
1828, $600.000 worth of prop rty was burned.
1835, Dec. 16 .- A fire broke out in the lower part of the city, which was not arrested until 40 acres, mostly covered by large stores, were burned over. and $18.000.000 worth of property was de- stroyed. It was the most disastrous fire that ever occurred in the city.
1845, July 19 .- A tire broke out near Wall Street, and extended to Stone Street. ravaging the entire district between Broadway and the E. side of Broad Street. Five to eight million dollars' worth of property was destroyed. 1858. Oct. 5 .- The Crystal Palace was burned.
Theaters in New York have been burned as follows :-
Park, 1820, 1848: Bowery, 1828, 1836, 1838, 1845; Mount Pitt Circus, 1828; La Fayette. 1829; National, 1839, 1841; Niblo's,
