PRESBYTERIAN GENERAL ASSEMBLY.

Saturday's Sitting (Continued).

RETORT ON VBIOS.

Tbe report on t.be union of the Presbyterian Churcli of New Zealand with that of Otago and Southland was made,—" February,

1883.—1 n presenting this report cm the | union of the Churches the committee have, in the first place, to put before the Assembly facts relative to the action of the Synod of Otago and Southland, -which has already.otherwise beep made, known, i They are these :—1 At the late meeting of the Synod a motion was carried by which, whilst it did not affirm1 or deny the practi cability of an incorporating union, the Committee on Union was re-jppoiated 1 with instrnciions. to,' in the womb of the motion, 'continue negotiations, and bring up a more matured, fall and detailed scheme for the consideration of the Church.' The motion was one of three competing motions. It was tarried by 45 to 21. (2) The character of the returns from the Presbyteries and tba Sessions within the bounds of the Synod, Of the returns from the former it is said in the report submitted by I r. Salmond, "The five Presbyteries of the Church have dis cussed the matter, four having come to unfavourable findiuga, and one, namely, Dunedin, to a favourable decision." Again, of those from the latter, he says : ' Twenty two returns from Sessions have reached the convener, more than one half haviug ap parently not counted the matter woith con»idering. seven of these approve of procedure ou the lipes md caud in the basis; of tho remaining fifteen a few dis approve of tho basis. Thu larger number express the opinion that uoion ia premature, and in the best ,iutere&t« of the Chuich meanwhile, while one dec;im-s giving tmy judgment, no session has expressed unquali fied disapproval ot. Union nud irdued all have room for the opition (wbich many dis tinctly express) that the Union will be a good thing some tutme day, and that the question ought to be dismissed only to be gent for at a more convenient neiisoti." Thus, whilst the motion was carried by such a majority as, taken in itself might seem to indicate that a large propoition of the Synod in the South lean towards union, that idea ia ratber dispelled than encouraged by the somewhat con tradictory attitude of the Presbyteries and sessions. The hsue of the appeal ma'dn by the Synod to the people within her bounds as to union on a basis which waa proposed by herself, would appear to be tb.ii very meagre one; that possibly, if, negotiations be continued, uoi«n may be brought about. With this in view, yotr com mittee must confeis to a feeling at once of disappointment sod aur prise. They are disappainUd at finding that the generosity displayed by ibeir church in yielding everything, or nearly every thing, asksd by the Synod •( Oiago and Southland, should have awakened, go little reaponuive feeling or hod so little effect in bringing Union near. They ware also surpriand to find that the Mouth ern Church should, after hornelf opening negotiations, hays shown that she is ko little ready ttr uoian even on terms, is the fullest measure, favourable te hsr.' Ncr can yo«r Committee tee what further mat ter for negotiation there U. Our Chuich has gone to tba utmost limit of comets* sion by conceding every important par ticular contiined in the piop»i«d basis, and there actually remain* not v single particular for ditcutsion be tween the Charchei. And th« Committee think that they would be jtutifwd iv sug gesting that negotiation nhould U* guipeu. ded until that one of the two baJies, in which only there is diversity of thou^iit &vi feeling ou the great matter of negotiation, shall nave made up her mind to accept or reject union ou the basis the h&i pro posed, or, at all events, shall have so raada up her mind that she shall be in the position to put it definitively befare us, U-t seeing that if there is, according to the motion carried by the Synod, to be further negotiation, it will be necessary that the Synod have some.one to negoiiuU whh, they would r«commeftd that the Assembly's Committee ihtuld, ia tiie in terest *t union, be contitatd. It is thi* which Dr. fcalmond aaks : ' I trust that your Asiembly will ace its w*y to continu* its committee. I am aware that tho diffiultiea are nearly all with n«, and that you are occupying a position of patient aid dignified waiting, ant, wbile toe difficul ties are mainly oars, they cuuuat be quite overcome without your help and sugges tions.' And, by doing thi«, the Church will continuu to occupy the position, which has evercomiittntly been het'n, as sincerely desirous of union, and ready to make every concession to promote it—ln the nam« of the Cjmiuittae, .1 ames TfiBADWELL, Con vener."

The Rev. W. Bherriffs moved, o»d the Rev. Mackenzie Fraser secondeil, "That while fully iiercemg with the general prin ciples of the des'rabiliky of union amongst Christian Churches, jot imumucti a« propo«aU for union wi>h the Church in otago hit.vc been made on former oc casions and much time spent in effort* to bring such a union to a consummation but without success, a«d whereas, although the present negotiations originated with the Utago Council at its inciting of Stnod in ISSI, and the Union proposals of the Ota%o Committee were sub-taatiilly agre»d to by our Clmrch in the Assembly ot 1882, leavng uothir.gf uriher to be conceded by this Church, yet the motion recently carried in the Otago Synod, which was thanostfnvourable to the union of all those proposed to the Synod, only went ibe length of saying that "negotiations have not yet proceeded so far a* to furnish grounds for affirming or deny, ing the practicability of union;" while, at the same time, it assumes an extreme leisurolines-. in the matter on the part of all concerned, this Assembly *ees no reason for believing that these negotia tions will lead to any practical r«olt> within any reasonable time, finds that in these circumstance", it is its chief dnty to concentrate its Attention and its energies on the work of organising and exlocdiog tha operations of the Church Withia its bwd territory, and, accordingly, while thanking the committee, and especially the convener, forjtheir pant diligence, deem it expedient that the committee should bo fe.app»inted." The Kof, J. Faterson mov«d a« an amendment, and the Rev. J. Maeky seconded: "Kfceive audsdopt the.report, thank the committee, and especially the conveners for their diligence, and futther, that this asEembly having already cxprested its willinsncss to enter into nhion with the Presbyterian Church of Otago and South land,' oa jthc basis proposed, has aothioe more to mid but simply await tke final decision of that Church and re-appoint the committee to receive such decision. -.

The Rev. W. Gillies moved aa a -further amendment, and the Pev. J. Hill seconded, " That this a«sembly finds that negotiations for union with the Church of Otago and Southland, are at present not likely to load to any practical result, and that, in the circumstance, it will be'better to cease these negotiation^ till circumstance's'^may indicate the likelihood of aomething practical issninß therefrom, "<•'•' V-''-'

Mr Patterson's proposition was carried by 13 to 6 . ,

Reports,— 'lhe treasurer's and trustees' reports wero received, and that of the tructees' adopted.

AMATERUR ORSMEN.

(To tb« Editor,)

Sm,—l should be pleased to see the rued definition of an amatenr oarsman fiiij definitely, on a broader and more liberal ba-u than at pr«sent exiaU in the discord ant ekmemeut which prevails amongst riv*L rowiug clubs, which appear to think ouly of grasping moaey prizes and regatta clubs . -which are ao raucii uider me influence oi the for.

m-'r (one iv particular shall be namel:ss), t-iat lurmony appears to bavo becoae'au" impossibility, There surely exists a fery paltry »pirit ii those uuually self-termid gentl«men unateurs who attempt to shut out other*, either from an uumanly fear of being beaten or a snobbish exclusiveness, whith should not be tolerated by regatta clubs. I am'convinced that the extra practloa and proper training which those engaged ia what may be termed soft-handed occjpa. tio*-8 have the opportunity of enjoying, ■ would r«sult in a more scientific style of .'■ rowing fully compensaHog lor the dhadvsn- Uge of conteadlog with harder moßcii',' j, supposed to be developed ia those engaged I in manual labonr. I believe Mr Ivey, ■! manager of the Bank of New South Wnle*<j '' and Mr Joseph Bennett, both entaiaiji^ | Oirsruim in their day, woald substantiate; f: ihis. Aud we have only ta mark-the splendid physique of tiieso geatlefe, it developed t.y training practice, v is\ assured lam justified in this opinion, the [ difficulty ia the settlement of this auestiog i* the existence of an element in the Auck land Rowing Club, also dominant in tho' ; Auckland Regatta Club, powerful enoojl, v to dictate terms. Now, while acknowledge • 1 ing tli* Bervicfs in advancing squstic sports in this harbour rendered by Mr Thomas Henderson and Measra Lacia j1 Bros, (and for my part i do so most ]('' emphatically), it must be conceded that they are the stumbling block. That unfortunate trip of theira down'; Sonth ceitainly disqualified them for future rowing as amateurs, by ai almost universally accepted rule •, and i', : , instead of quibbling and manrjeuvriof;, they would gracefully retire, they would be ad-, Tanci'd^: tho rowing intercs>s far more than by their present action. 1 am at a loss to conceive why the Auckland Rowing' Club': tolerates this supremacy, which must ba damaging to the "Club; and with all res pect due to the gentlemen named, I thai" it a very extraordinary thing, and little to the credit of the Club, if it is unable lo bring together a crew quite equal to their present first crew. Permit me, in conclusion, to suggest to - 1 following definition to the consideratioa of the Rowing Association and also to M -:- , Cemmittee of the Ponsonby Regatta Ckb, , which so far is entitled to the credit of | framing the best definition ;-?-" An amateur; oarsman is one who haa not entered to open competition with, or against a profen ieionsl, for either a stake, public money, or. (entrance fees; and who is not, or has not been engaged in manual labour on tli« water."—lam, Sec, ' r •■'"■-. POJSOHBT, Febiutry 24th. ■ HI
