Twenty-one boarders are there, and a dozen students, his sons and pupils in the gospel. I believe he is now laying the foundations of many generations.”—Watchman, Feb. 18, 1835.[54]Sullivan’s house was the preachers’ home, and was also sometimes used for preaching.

This manuscript was published, a few years ago, by John Russel Smith, of Soho Square, London. The writer has compared the printed pamphlet with the original document; and, with a few unimportant exceptions, including one or two omissions, has found it faithfully and correctly given. It is from the same source, that we chiefly derive the following facts.[68]Life of C. Wesley.[69]Nineteen of these verses, with many erasures and corrections, in Wesley’s own abbreviated long hand writing, are at the end of the manuscript in the British Museum, from which the foregoing statements have been taken.[70]Wesley’s Works, vol. xiii., p. 154.[71]Watson’s Works, vol. v., p. 200.[72]Moore’s Life of Wesley, vol. ii., p. 171.[73]Manuscripts.[74]Manuscript in British Museum.[75]Methodist Magazine, 1833, p. 758.[76]In a list of “Books published by John and Charles Wesley,” in 1749, one, numbered 85, is “Moravian Hymns,” price a penny; and, in a letter dated 1749, Zinzendorf remarks: “J. Wesley’s extract from our hymn-book has done us no injury.” (“Memoirs of James Hutton,” p. 218.)[77]What a change in eleven years! The following interesting and important letter has not before been published. It was lent to the author by Charles Reed, Esq., M.P.; but too late to be inserted in the proper place. Let the reader compare it with Wesley’s Journal of the same date.“Westphalia, Germany,July 7, 1738.“Dear Brother,—I am now with the Count, at his uncle’s, the Count of Solmes, five or six hours from Marienborn; and have stolen an hour to let you know that God has been very merciful to us in all things. The spirit of the Brethren is above our highest expectation. Young and old, they breathe nothing but faith and love, at all times, and in all places. I do not therefore concern myself with the smaller points that touch not the essence of Christianity, but endeavour (God being my helper) to grow up in these after the glorious example set before me. Having already seen with my own eyes more than a hundred witnesses of the everlasting truth,—‘Every one that believeth hath peace with God, and is freed from sin, and is in Christ a new creature,’—see, my dear brother, that none of you receive the grace of God in vain; but be ye also living witnesses of the exceeding great and precious promises, which are made to every one of us through the blood of Jesus. Adieu.—John Wesley.”[78]The Moravian Hymn-Book, published in two volumes, in 1754, is before us; and similar quotations to the above might be given, almostad infinitum, but no good end would be answered by doing so. Zinzendorf’s heart was better than his head. His brain was fertile, but brought forth weeds as well as flowers. His passions were strong, and easily excited; and he was not unwont to assume a superiority, to which he foolishly fancied that his German birth and rank entitled him. He was an enormous worker; and his energy, disinterestedness, and devotion are deserving of praise; but he was far from faultless. His policy was often suspicious, and sometimes had the appearance of dissimulation. He was too anxious to assert his authority, even when it was not called in question; and, though his eccentricities were not surprising, considering his temperament and activity, they were not to be commended.[79]Nichols’ “Illustrations of Literature,” vol. ii., p. 162.[80]This will be noticed in the year 1761.[81]Wesley’s Works, vol. x., p. 367.[82]Ibid. vol. x., p. 403.[83]Methodist Magazine, 1827, p. 314.[84]Whitefield’s Works, vol. ii., p. 316-18.[85]Ibid. p. 320.[86]“Life and Times of Countess of Huntingdon,” vol. i., p. 118.[87]See Whitefield’s Letters.[88]Methodist Magazine, 1837, p. 421.[89]London Magazine, 1750.[90]Walpole’s Letters.[91]London Magazine, 1750, p. 139.[92]London Magazine, 1750, p. 223.[93]Methodist Magazine, 1779, p. 257.[94]Methodist Magazine, 1781, p. 92.[95]Methodist Magazine, 1779, p. 256.[96]Methodist Magazine, 1848, p. 776.[97]The reference here is doubtless to Roger Ball.[98]Methodist Magazine, 1794, p. 524.[99]Wesley’s Works, vol. xiii., p. 316.[100]Whitehead’s Life of Wesley, vol. ii., p. 259.[101]Methodist Magazine, 1819, p. 544.[102]Lavington, bishop of Exeter, begins his “Enthusiasm of the Methodists and Papists compared,” with a sketch of what he calls “the madness and presumption of the Montanists.”[103]Methodist Magazine, 1815, p. 47.[104]It is rather remarkable, that in a second instance the Methodists took possession of a French protestant church, in Spitalfields, namely, the chapel now occupied in Church Street, and at the erection of which John Nelson worked, when he heard Wesley preach in 1739, and saw him stroke back the hair of his head. (Private manuscript.)Aproposof chapels, it may be added, that in Reed’sWeekly Journalof December 15, 1750, is the following item of intelligence: “We hear that the Rev.
