The following "Six Terms of Communion," were read and explained on every sacramental occasion before distributing the "Tokens :"-


"1. An acknowledgment of the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments to be the word of God, and the only rule of faith and manners.

THEIR PRINCIPLES.


1790-1800.]


"2. An acknowledgment that the whole doctrine of the West- minster Confession of Faith and the Catechisms, larger and shorter, are agreeable to, and founded on, the Scriptures.


"3. An acknowledgment of the divine right of one unalterable form of church government and manner of worship-and that these are for substance justly exhibited in that form of Church government and the Directory for worship, agreed on by the assembly of Divines at Westminster, as they were received by the Church of Scotland.


" 4. An acknowledgment that public Covenanting is an or- dinance of God, to be observed by churches and nations, under the New Testament dispensation ;- and that those vows-namely, that which was entered into by the church and kingdom of Scotland, called the NATIONAL COVENANT, and that which was afterwards entered into by the three kingdoms of Scotland, England, and Ireland, and by the Reformed Churches in those kingdoms, usually called the SOLEMN LEAGUE AND COVENANT -- were entered into in the true spirit of that institution ; and that the obligation of these covenants extends to those who were represented in the taking of them, although removed to this or any other part of the world, in so far as they bind to duties not peculiar to the British isles, but applicable in all lands.


" 5. An approbation of the faithful contendings of the mar- tyrs of Jesus, and of the present Reformed Covenanted churches in Britain and Ireland, against Paganism, Popery, and Prelacy, and against immoral constitutions of civil gov- ernment, together with all Erastian tolerations and persecu- tions which flow therefrom ; as containing a noble example for us and our posterity to follow, in contending for all divine trutlı, and in testifying against all contrary evils which may exist in the corrupt constitutions of either church or state.


"6. An approbation of the doctrines contained in the Testi- mony of the Reformed Presbyterian Church in North America, in defence of truth and opposition to error.


"These, together with due subordination in the Lord to the authority of the synod of the Reformed Presbyterian Church in North America, and a regular life and conversation, form the bonds of our ecclesiastical union."


The earlier Covenanters in South Carolina were owners of slaves ; nor was any strenuous opposition made to slave-hold- ing until the arrival of Mr. Mckinney, and the influence he . exerted.


Another branch of the Presbyterian Church in this State is the Associate Reformed; whose organization has been al-

luded to, having the same standards and government with ourselves, and differing from us only on the subject of psalm- ody and of close communion. Our limits do not allow us to enter upon their history, for which indeed we are in no way prepared ; but we cannot speak too highly of these our brethren, for their orthodoxy, zeal, and self-denying service in the cause of Christ.


The first minister of this church settled in South Carolina, was, perhaps, the Rev. John Renwick, who preached at Can- non's Creek, in Newberry district, and died August 20th, 1775, aged forty years. This church, and Prosperity in its vicinity, are thought to have been planted earlier than those of Cedar Spring and Long Cane, in Abbeville. Of Dr. Clark, commonly regarded as the founder of the Associate Reformed Church in the State, we have spoken. His first visit to Carolina was in 1780, his settlement here in 1786. The State was visited by Rev. Mr. Lynn, a missionary of this church, about 1787, The Rev. John Boyce, whose father settled at Long Cane, in 1780, and who was graduated at Dickinson college in 1787, was a pious and pathetic preacher, the first pastor, it is said, of Hopewell congregation in Chester, but died of the consumption, after a very brief ministry.


Rev. John Hemphill came from Ireland soon after the Rev- olution ; commenced his studies with Rev. Samuel Warnoch, an Irish minister, who sought admission to the South Car- olina presbytery, but was debarred because of intemperance. His preparatory education was chiefly obtained under Dr. Alexander, of Bullock's Creek. He was graduated at Dick- inson college, May, 1792; licensed May, 1794; ordained in October of the same year, and installed pastor of Hopewell, Union, and Ebenezer, in 1796. He was the father of the Rev. W. R. Hemphill, Hon. John Hemphill, Chief-justice of Texas, and James Hemphill, Esq., of Chester.


Alexander Porter, born in South Carolina, graduated under Dr. Nesbit, at Dickinson college ; was licensed to preach the gospel in 1796 ; and ordained and installed pastor of Cedar Spring and Long Cane, Abbeville, in 1797.


William Blackstock migrated from Ireland to this country about 1794, and was ordained and installed, June 8th of that year, over the churches of Steele Creek, Ebenezer, and Neely Creek.


There were other ministers, whose record is not before us. These churches were planted side by side with ours, and, on the introduction of the New Psalmody, were largely increased,

as was natural, by both elders and people who withdrew from us. There may have been jealousies at that time between churches bordering upon each other. These have long since passed away, and we live in friendly and cordial intercourse as brethren, though as different branches of the one Presby- terian Church. Overtures for external union with us have been made, and fraternal conference has been had, within the last few years, looking to this end, but as yet without success. If it were accomplished, feeble churches in each other's neighborhood might coalesce, ministers might be released to occupy other fields now destitute, and an economy of instru- mentalities and means in various particulars be secured. But a fictitious outward union, without sameness of views and oneness of heart, would only give rise to restlessness and further division. If we are not permitted to see the desired union on earth, we know it will exist in that higher and holier state, where, as our Redeemer assures us, we shall be one, as He and the Father are one.


With this brief notice of these two bodies, our history of the Presbyterian Church in South Carolina, from the first settlement of the country, in 1670, to the beginning of the present century, reaches its completion.
