OBITUARY.
Judge Richard Stockton Fields.
Hon. Richard Stockton Fields died at
Princeton, N. J., on the night of Wednesday
last, aged Bixty-boven. He was a native of
New Jersey, and graduated with higli honors
at Princeton College. He entered on the
study of law and brought to it a mind of no
ordinary ability. He soon rose to a com
manding position at the Bar of New Jersey,
which was pre-eminent for talent aud legal
research, lie resided all his life at Prince
ton, where he made his cottage home cele
brated for its floricultural and horticultural
collections. He was a professor for many
years in the law department of the College of
New Jersey, which owed its existence to his
energy and talent.
Judge Fields was very prominent in the
cases involving large intereets connected with
the vested franchises of the railroads and
other treat corporations of New Jersey. He
was of a modest, retiring disposition, and
shrank from unnecessary contact with
the active world of political life, and sought
the cloistered privacy of his library and the
cenial society of men of science and letters,
whom the College and Theological Seminary
drew to Princeton. Us was active in the
councils of the Protestant Episcopal Church,
both in the Diocesan and General Conven
tions, lie had tnree daughters, but no
sons. Two of his daughters survive him, we
believe.
He was appointed by President Lincoln to
succeed non. Philemon Dickerson (who died
December 10, 18C1) as Judge of the United
States District Court of New Jersey, and he
remained so, winning high encomiums for the
learning and knowledge of the law displayed
in his decisions during the exciting decade
which has just terminated.
A few weeks ego, while hearing an import
ant cause at Trenton, in open court, he fell
tenseless, after uttering some incoherent re
marks, and since that time he has lingered in
great pain, with both mental and physical
suffering. His successor was appointed im
mediately on his resignation, lion. John T.
Nixon.
Judge Fields was not a man seeking per
unnnl nomilaritv by lavish tirofusion of acta
to endear him with the public, but the wealth
of his intellectual attainments gave him de
servedly high prominence in all positions
open to his profession in the great State of
New Jersey. He was a warm friend, an afi'eo-
tionate parent, a judicious counsellor and an
-upright judge; and his memory will long be
fondly cherished by his fellow-Jerseymen as
one of the bright constellations that his State
has contributed to our national judiciary.
Hamuel Hazard.
Samuel Hazard, whose death at German
town on May Ti has been announoed, was
born in Philadelphia in 1784, and during his
entire life has been engaged in publishing
periodical works devoted to the early history
of Pennsylvania, and in compiling the records
of the Province. He apparently derived his
table for Libloricil researches from LU father,
(, f.r JIttzurd, who waa United States
Ton! must er-Geurml from 1782 to 1789, and
from 17!:i to 171)4 published "Historical Col
lections," consisting of State papers and
other historical documents, intended
as materials for a history of the United
States. In 1828 Samuel Hazard commenced
the publication of the "Pennsylvania Regis
ter, which was issued until 1Mi5, forming
sixteen volumes large oetavo. He next pub
lished the "United States Commercial and
Statistical Register," forming six large octavo
volumes, issued from 18.'J!t to 1842. The
"Annals of Pennsylvania," from 1000 to
H82, an octavo volume of 800 pagea, wis
next issued by Mr. Hazard. He alao, by
appointment of the Legislature, printed the
"Pennsylvania Archives," from 1082 to 1700,
from the original records, forming t waive
yolumes. Mr. Hazard was indefatigable in his
labors, and was respected and esteemed by all
who knew him. .
Rev. I.nnc Collins.
The Rev. Isaao Collins, one of the oldest
members of the Baltimore Annual Conference
of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and a
defender of that city in 1814, died n Wed
nesday afternoon, in the eighty-first year of
his age, at Baltimore. Mr. Collins was a
preacher of nearly sixty years' standing, and
was widely known among the Methodists of
Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Maryland. He
became a convert in 1810, and served both as
chaplain and soldier under General Harrison,
on the lakes, in 1812. He subsequently par
ticipated in the battles of Lladensbnrg and
North Point, and was near the British General
Ross when hd fell in the battle of North Point,
in 1814. His service in the Church extended
over a wide extent of country in Maryland,
Virginia, and Pennsylvania, and during the
long period of his itinerant ministry he was
instrumental in converting thousands of per
sons, among them great numbers of colored
people in that city.
THE ASSEMBLY.
Yreterdny Afternoon's Session.
The afternoon session was devoted, accord
ing to prior agreement, to the celebration of
the Holy Communion. The galleries were
crowded and the services were impressive.
Rev. Dr. George W. Musgrave presided and
the elements wore dispensed by the clergy
men and elders already named. The services

Howard Crosby, of New York.
The Evening; Reunion Continuation of the Re
rrilton ol the foreign Delegates.
Rev. Dr. John Edniond, of the United
Tresbyterian Church of Great Britain and
Ireland, was the first of thejdeleates intro
duced, ne thought this must be a most re
markable body to have received the congratu
lations of three great different foreign bodies.
The fact that this great body represented a
cluster of stars, undiminished by the erasures
of war, added an especial significance to the
solemnity of this occasion. He compared the
organization of his own Church with that of
the Presbyterian Church here, and concluded
with an expression of opinion that the great
Christian duty of the people of this country
was to cultivate friendly relations with the
people of Great Britain. The flag of univer
sal peace should be flung on high, arid the
Scriptural doctrines enunciated by lliui who
hm elevated it on nigu should be the mot
toes of every Christian.
Dr. McLeod, of the same unurch, loiloweci
in eulogy of the American Church and coun
try, and felicitation as to the que&tion of re
union, considering all branches of the Anglo-
Saxon race as one, and hence rejoiced over
every union of the people speaking that
tongue.
The Moderator (Dr. J. M. liaoKus) re
sponded in a brief expression cf appreciation
of the cordial feeling expressed by the dole
gates who had spoken.
