AUCKLAND PRESBYTERY.

A srECL\L meeting of the Presbytery was held this morning in St Andrew's Church. Present: Rev. J. Macky (moderator), Revs. A. Carrick, R. ¥. Macnicol, D. W. Runciman, T. Norrie, Rev. D. W. Monro, Rev. R. Summerville (clerk), and a number of elders. The business opened with prayer and the reading of a portion of scripture. Mihutes.— Tho minutes asked for of the previous meeting were confirmed. Mangare Call.—Rev D. W. Runci man read a report of a meeting respecting this call, and at which it had been re -80l veii to bus t ain't he call HevMr Forbes, which was unanimous.—Somediscussion followed on the call.—Rev R. Sommerville said it was quite within the province of the Presbytery to dispose of the call ; but he understood that another call would be made.—Rev R. F. Macnicol said the commission appointed was simply to sustain the call, but of course they had nothing to do with the acceptance of it.—The Rev Moderator said any gentleman might move the adoption of the report.—Rev J. Norrie said the report could be so modified as to be within the rules of propriety.—The report was then adopted.—Key Thos. Norrie said he had a minute to read respecting another call. — Rev. R. Sommerville read the minute re ferred to, and which related to a number of districts being formed into a Kirk Session.—Rev. T. Norrie then read a report of a meeting with the usual form of call made to the Rev. Thomas R. Forbes, held at , at which he presided, since the last meeting of the Presbytiry. The rev. gentleman said that unfortunately, the day was very wet, consequently the meet ing was but thinly attended. He might say, however, that the call had been signed by 138 members and 130 adherents In the|ten districts; making 268. He might add tnat the call was harmonious and unanimous; and had the ladies exercised rights, the call would have received, pt least, 300 signatures. He was prepared to make a few remarks on the call, but on the Suggestion i f-Mr.Sommeiville, Mr Norrie postponed what ho had to say.—Rev. A. Carrick proposed that Messrs Whito and Robertson be first heard on the united call of Onehunga and Mangare.—Mr White then gave a detailed account of the nec cessity of a settled minister in this united charge,|and the desire for such a consutnm_« tion on the part of tho people. There was the greatest unanimity in reference to the charge. He could speak confidently in relation to his own district, Onehunga. He considered that the prospects of a church were very encouraging, and a great many settlers, originally and still Presbyterians, would rejoice to see a united church and a chosen minister amongst them. Mr James Robertson spoke in similar terms respecting Mangare. Both districts were free from debt and consequently in a favourable position.—lt was then deter mined to hear Rev. Thos. Norrie in support of the Pukekohe call. Mr Nonie thought it was comparatively easy for the Onehunga and Mangare people to Hud a suitable minister to address himself acceptably to the united Church ; but there were induce ments at Pukekohe and Pokeno which the Onehunga people did not possess. Tlie Onehunga people felt that they could give a stipend of £300, but they had no manse, while iv the charge which he represented they had an excellent manse unoccupied. Mr Forbes was a young man endowed with physical energy, and was in every way adapted to fiil tho position at Pukekohe, and the congregation had really made up their minds tor Mr Forbes. He doubted, moreover, that thero was such unanimity at Onehunga as hinted by Mr White.—Mr White rose and adhered to his former statement.—Rev. Mr Norrie said he would leavo the matter in the hands of the presbytery.—Messrs. James Comrie, Wm. McKerras, George Porret, and William Sharp, jun., spoke in support of the Pukekohe call, and especially in favour of the Rev. Thomas Roderick Forbes who was fitted both by natural calling and ability for the charge. MrPerretarguedthatthedistrict had a prior right to Mr Forbes. There were 10 districts ready to unite, and possibly these ten doors might be closed it they did not get Mr Forbes, while at Onehunga there would be but two. —Bey. Mr Monro asked if the Pukekohe aud Pokeno friends could guarantee a minister's salary.—Mr McKerras said a commencing salary of £200 would be guar anteed, and there were five acres of land for the minister's use.—lt was then moved and seconded, "That both calls be sanctioned by the Presbytery, and placed in tho hands of Mr Forbc3 for his consideration."—Rev. I Mr Forbes received tho calls, and said the question was one of great importance to hiro. He felt that much wouid be expected from one of whom so much had been said. He knew that individual ell'ort was ncces ary to success, hut without mutual assist ance the minister's efforts must necessarily be limited. Mr Forbes proceeded to say that, consulting his own feelinge in the matter, and tor other reasons whicli hs ex. plained, he was inclined to accept the less lucrative office of Pukekohe from a sense of honour, having bound himself to a certain extent to sco the districts formed into serviceable shape. He telt grateful to the kind Iriends who had spoken so favourably of his ministerial work, and with all due deference to the Presbytery and tho wishes of the friends of Onehunga, he must hold to his pre vous resolution iv accepting the county call.—Rev. A. Carrick said he had no doubt butMrForbes'decisionwasawiscouc. Rev. D. W. Runciman said that had lie known of the favourable impression made by Mr Forbes upon tho people among whom he had laboured with so much zeal and success, lie should not have pressed the matter, although he tinccreiy regretted tbat he could not have been secured to One hunga and Mangare.—lt was then moved and seconded, "That the ordination of Mr Forbe3 be made as early as possible." Rev. J. Macky (moderator), spoke highly of the Forbes, and considered that he had made an honourable sacrifice in accepting the less remunerative and more labourous chargo from a sense of duty,—The ReY.

Thomas Norrie was appointed to serve the necessary edict for the ordination and annouuee tho samo on two previous sabbaths. It was further arranged that the ordination be held Pukekoho West, on Thursday, the 18th instant, at two o'clock. Commission.—The following ministers weic appointed a Commission to carry out the resolution: '1 he Roy. J. Macky, (moderator), Roys. Messrs Tomson, Munro, Norrie, and Somnicrville. giORUINATION OF Rl_V. A. TOMSON.— Rev. R. F. Macnicol read tho report of the ordination of Rev. Alexander Tomson to the charge of Waiuku.—The report Was approved and adopted. Sustination Fund.—The clerk read a list of annual sums allixcd to and expected to bo raised by tho Presbyterian Churches of Auckland ami surrounding districts, amounting to £200, a copy of the same to bo sent to the ministers of the churches for their approval. —On the motion of Rev. R. F. Macnicol, seconded by the Rev. A. Garrick, the report was adopted. This was the principlo business.

The Graving Dock Question

THE question of constructing a large aud suitable dock at Calliope Point was brought prominently under tho Harbour Board yesterday afteruoou in two separate fofms—firstly hy a recommendation from the. Works Committee ; aud secondly by a direct niotiou. The recommendation was amended and then passed as follows :— " That the petitioners for tho erection of a graviug dock at Calliope Point bo informed that tho Board have taken the necessary steps to obtain all the necessary information for the erection of a largo dock, and that the engineer be instructed to sink a shaft, and take the necessary borings aud soundings for a first-class dock at Calliope Point." At a later stage of the meeting Mr Aickin moved iv accordance with notice

—" That it is desirable that steps should at onco be taken for tho construction of a Jock suitable for the port of Auckland, the length to be not less than 450 feet, aud tho depth not less than 26' feet." Tho proposition he looked on as a very simple one. The matter had been belore the public for a long time, and it therefore required very little discussion now. .He had boen told that it was almost unnecessary to enter upon any lengthened remarks on tho subject a3 everyone was agreed as to the necessity of tho suggested work. He hoped that the statement was true, aud in fact ho would be sorry to have occasion to doubt its truth. Ho had come to tho conclusion that no man who voted against such a resolution was a friend to Auckland. (Mr Masefield : Question.) It was if question nt all. The question was soMy—wore we to keep pace with the rest of the colouy ? Duuedin, Lyttelton, and Wellington, had each its dock, and until this city was provided with similar facilities for the repair of vessels ii would lag behind tho others. Ordinary civilisation required us to have a dock suitable to the shipping of the preseut day, for we had the tiuest harbour in the colouy. It had beeu said that this question of questions was insurmountable, but there was nothing in surmountable to the determined will. There was very little difficulty about it if a few right-thinkiug meu of ordinary mental cap acity set themselves the tusk of finding out the ways and means, and they would be found, for he had made it his busiuess to ascertain that. Ho feared, however, that they hail some dissenticuts amongst them. Some ono bad talked ol having the dock at the North Shore, another had advocated the lengthening of the pre sent dock, and a third would not talk of one costing more than £30,000. Tho ques tion, however, was, should thoy take the necessary meaus of meeting an urgent pub lic requirement. Seven years hence, the projected canal through Central America would bring to our shores the largest ship pine which had yet visited these seas, and it would be suicidal ou our part to allow them to go ou to Sydney or Melbourne for the repairs -which it would be naturally ex pected they should find here. This should be a depOt for all such trade, for it was uot only a central point noon the highway of commerce, but the nearest ono in these colouies to America and the Islands. These things were so patent that it was like repe tition to state them. He trusted that the Board would be united on tho matter. Mr T. Momu seconded tho motion. Mr Waddel thought that the Board had pretty well gone into the matter when it was decided to instruct the engineer to ascertain the best site for a largo dock, and he only accounted for Mr Aickcu's action by the supposition that ho had overlooked the Committeo's roport. The steps suggested by him had already been recom mended by the Board, and they would certainly have a dock—two if they could get them. (A laugh.) Tho practical way of going about the matter was to enquire tbe probable cost and the possible means of meeting it. They had not the money at present, and he seriously doubted that they could raise £100,000 on tho English market for any of their fancies. He thought that the financial success of the work was pro blematical, inasmuch as there were no very large vessels calling here except in cases of break-down which came hero for repairs. However, it was quite proper that tbe port should be provided with a first-class dock, seeing that the present one was insufficient. At any rate the Committee's recommenda tian had quite taken the wiud out ot Mr Aickin's sail. Mr Thompson wished to say at the outset that tho question of in creased dock accommodation had his sympathy. At the same time, he con sidered the motion rather ill-timed, and he could not help thinking that Mr Aickin, when he gave notice of his motion, had not been aware of the Committee's action in his i absence. He would not like to see it negatived in view of the action they had already taken, and he therefore counselled the withdrawal of the proposition, at least for a time. Mr Boylan said that whether withdrawn or not, it would have done good service in preparing the public mind for what must come at no very distant day—increased taxation. The persons who signed the petition urging the construction of a dock must have beon aware of this, and conse- I quently it wa3 a fair assumption that they were disposed to accept fresh imposts. In creased rates to the extent of £7000 per annum would have to be put on for perhaps a period of forty years. The money cx 'pendedon tbe dock would bring its full value to the poit. It would never be a financial success, for like the making of a streetH it was indis pensable, but could uot be expected to pay. The people would have to face the prospect of paying 3s or 4s extra per ton upon their goods. Mr Compton could not see any necessity for the 3s or 4s extra per ton. They had a surplus of £4,500 this year, and he con sidered that they would have plenty of means where with to pay the interest upon a loan of £100,000 by putting on an extra rateof lsper ton without taking iulu account the rentals from the thirty allotments fiont ing Quay-street. Mr Robinson suggested that the motion should bo referred" to the Finance Com mittee, pending the result of the borings aud soundings which the engineer had been directed to make. No one, he felt assured, doubted the necessity of a large dock, but it was premature for them to pro ceed further in the matter until the requisite preliminary information had been obtained. If it could be shown that the interest for the payment of the loau could be raised he would support the project. He would move as au amendment, " That the matter be referred to the Finance Committee, pend ing inquiries now being made." Mr Thompson seconded the amendment. Mr Aickin nointed out tbat his motion I' only affirmed the desirability of such a work but did not actually commit tbem to if. He did not see why be should witli diaw it. Any amount of obstacles could be thrown in the way by persons who did not want the dock.

Mr Boylan remarked that the only way open to them of getting tho dock constructed would bo to secure the passage through Parliament of a Bill authorising the lloating of a loan. It might be possible to do it in that way. It, however, the Government had set their faces against further borrow ing in New Zealand that was an end to the matter.

Mr Masclield was of opinion that in at- I tempting to carry out Mr Aickin's motion before the engineer's report had been received they were putting the cart before the horse. He thought that all would agree that it was a desirable thing for Auckland to have a large dock, but they had first of all to obtain authentic information as to the suitability of site, probable cost, &c. The motion at present was of no value. It was like a man say ing, "I thiuk it very desirable that I should have a house worth £1,000, but I have not the money to get one." The object in view would" not be achieved by mere talk, but by action, instituted in a sensible and practical way. The Chairman agreed with the last speaker in his simile concerning the cart beinc put before the horse on this occasion. He would like to know, however, what use the dock could be put to if it were got ? Where had they the ships which would occupy it : If Auckland were an established naval station, then the building of a large

dock would be most desirable, but to build it first nnd then wait Uutil it oame to bo required was very imprudent. He had recently received a letter from the Government stating that a despatch had come to hand from the Homo authorities, in which it was stated that in view of tho existing facilities for docking H.M. ships in the colouies they were not prepared to offer any assistance towards the erection of a dock here. They had sent letters and information to the Hon. Mr Brasscy iv England, and he hoped that by this means Auckland would yet be ap pointed a naval station. They should, at any rate, await the issue of that correspon dence belore taking any further action. Tho present dock met all existing require ments. There was hardly a ship which came to the port which could not take in even at low tides. Tho Brodick Castle, which was one of tho largest sailing vessels here lately, only drew ten foet odd, while the dock had a depth of thirtoou feet. No one was moro interested than himself in providing suitable docking facilities; but before going to the extra cost he would like to see that they were doing a proper thing. To construct a dock when there were no ships to make uso of it seemed to him like making a street where there were no people to walk over it.

Mr Aickin said that ho did not intend to answer the many illogical statements which the Chairman had made. He had talked of ships not coming here, but why was it? Tho reason was obvious. Roads wero made in agricultural districts for tho pur pose of encouraging settlement, and tho establishment of a large dock hero would be a vdy effectual means of cxtouding our commerce. However, ho did not care, for he did not think it necessary to reply to such objections. Ho was uoiug to Mel bourne in a few days, and bo would there fore consent to tho postponement of his motion for two mouths, at tho end of which time he hoped to sco some definite action taken.

The motion was consequently deferred for two months.
