He then settled in Perth Amboy, where he was a vestryman at St. Peter's Church from 1749 to 1752. He was a large landowner in the New Jersey counties of Hunterdon, Union, and Somerset, and he owned a copper mine at Rocky Hill that was later abandoned.Stevens was a member of the New Jersey General Assembly in 1751. He served as paymaster of the 1st New Jersey Regiment (the "Jersey Blues") under Colonel Peter Schuyler (New Jersey) from 1756 to 1760. In 1758 he was appointed by the Assembly of New Jersey to serve as a commissioner to the state's Indian tribes. In 1762 he was named a member of the New Jersey Provincial Council, a position that he resigned in 1770.Stevens was a vocal opponent of the Stamp Act. When the act went into effect in 1765, he was one of a committee of four (with Robert Livingston, John Cruger, Jr., and Beverly Robinson) to prevent the issue of stamps in New York City.
