collections Averefroni £1 15s to £3 10s daily. As soon as possible they would increase the stipend of the pastor. Ihey had only ottered £150 per annum because they were sure of being able to give that amount. He was certain they would require no assistance once they got a fair start. After considerable discussion it was agreed to sustain the call on the ground that the minimum stipend be offered, viz., £200. The Rev. 1>- Bruce said that if the Rev. Thos. Stewart had settled in his mind what place lie would prefer it would simplify the matter. The Rev. T. Stewart said lie had con sidered over the matter, but could come to no conclusion as to what would be the right s.^ssCS*' take. He believed, however, that he 'JZJ??' 0 accept the call from Cambridge, i*jpr* r>-n, and NgarawaMa, and decided act '..Singly. The Rev. T. Nome was ap pointed to perform the induction services. after .some further discussion the Rev. Mr McKeiizie moved, and Mr Sommerville seconded, " That the united call from Cam bridge, Hamilton and Ngarauwlua be placed in the hands of the Rev. Thomas Stewart. This was carried without discussion. The question was then formally put to the Rev. Stewart as to whether he would accept the call, and an answer in the affirmative Was given. The Rev. D Bruce then moved " That the Moderator (Rev. Thomas Norrie)be appointed as a commission to carry out the induction of the Rev. T. Stewart, and to perform the other necessary duties in connection there with. This was seconded by Mr Stevenson, and carried. It was afterwards agreed that the Rev. T. Stewart should be placed in charge of the whole district of Waikato until such time as other ministers could be sent to assist him. A benediction was pronounced upon those assembled, after which the meeting dis persed. We understand the usual quarterly meet ing of the Auckland Presbytery will be held in St. Andrew's Church on the first Wednesday in October.
