UNITED METHODIST FREE CHURCHES.

District Mooting.

On resuming its sittings yesterday after noon, the lirst draft of stations was rend. The next question for consideration was the Dunedin mission. It was reported that owing to the unwillingness of the piople to multiply Methodist Churches in that city, and in view of Methodist Union taking place, it was found impossible to establish

a Free Methodist cause there, and it was recommended to this meeting that the mission be abandoned, and tbe minister transferred to other more congenial spheres of labour. After a lengthy and animated discussion it was finally resolved that tho mission be given up forthwith. The names of the ministers in full connection were next read over, and then the Assembly went on to consider whero the next annual meet ing should bo hold. An invitation having been received to hold it in Christchurch, it was resolved so to do. The rep resentative to tho next Annual Assembly nt Home was then cloCscJ. The gentleman selected was Mr Alderman Green, of North Shields, a gentleman who is woll known in the Home onferenco, and hastillcd many of its impor taut offices. Tho Rev. R. Taylor next prosentod tho report of the Preacher..' Children's Fund. He wns thanked for his past services as treasurer to this hind, aud thon re-appointed. Public Toa and Mooting. On tho rising of tho Assembly in tho afternoon a public tea was hold m the School-room, when a goodly company was present to partake thereof. Tlie tables woro presided over by the following ladies: -Mosdamos Taylor, Tattersall, Knott, Tlatt, Waterhouse, Sinclair, Copoland, Warren, Watt, Parker, and Major. After tea tho company adjourned, when a very interesting meeting was held, under the presidency of tho Rev. S. Macfarlane. The meeting was opened by singing, and then the Rev. J. White ottered prayer. The Chairman in his opening re marks said that what John Wesley said in his day had been true of his followers, and thoy had found it is so in their own ex perience, "best of all God is with us. They had realised this in their district meeting. The object of Methodism was to spread scriptural holiness in tho land, and he rejoiced in what they had been ablo to accomplish in this direction.—Tho choir sang on anthem, " Behold How Good and How Pleasant it is for Brethren to Dwell Together in Unity."—Rev. E. O. Perry, of Napier, then addressed the meeting on what thoy, as a district, had accomplished during the 10 yoars of their existence, pointing out how they had increased in the number of churches as well as members, but said he, our results cannot be tabulated, we can rejoice over spiritual edification, nnd the spread of our free principles of ecolesiostioal polity. Tho reform churches havo taught us our individual responsibility and in this respect thoy differed from the Romish Church which transferred this re sponsibility to its priest. The rev. gentle man seowed how tho principles of freedom pervaded the denominational policy and that from individual freedom true buccoss had and must ever come. He concluded his address with a reference to what ho had once observed in an iron mine. How that two men had been work ing for hours and hours, and yet nothing was to be seen of their labours but a few broken pieces from the rock ; but by-and bye the blast was fired, and down from tho sides of tho mine there rolled largo quantities of rock, which contained tho valuahlo metal; so they in their work had been but preparing the way, and though they had not much to show the results would follow. And though they could not present to a people a grand ritual and beautiful music they could present Christ like character, which were much bettor than these outward things.— Anthem by the choir: " Blessed is ho that Considereth the Poor."—The Roy. C. Worloys (Presi dent) then followed with a warm and eloquent address, commencing by referring to the pleasure he had experienced in visit ing this city and boholding its oeauties, and meeting with its genial poople. He hud Often heard much respecting its excellencies but the half was novcr told. Ho then passed on to speak of tho superiority of tho present times as compared with any in tho past, nnd attributing this marked improvement to tho lifo and teachings of Jesus Christ. He noticed the effect such life and teachings had exerted upon slavery, the treatment of the poor, the condition of womanhood ; how they hod elevated society, and relieved the oppressed, and strengthened tho weak. Ho also spoke of the yet gr. ater results that theso influences wero to produce, how the varied gcientic discoveries were to reach their highest uses in extending the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and pointed out the greatest nnd most pressing need of the church was a richer baptism of the Holy Spirit.—Anthem by the choir, and thon Mr Wm Flesher made an apology for a speech, After which the Rev. R, Taylor, now ot Addington, Into pastor of the Vinccnt ntr'eet Church, gave an interesting speech on "Christian Joyfulness;" tho Rev. Mr Baxter next followed with a speech defend ing the distinctive church policy adopted by the free churches, and praising the same for its freedom and justice. Votes of thanks to tho ladies and choir concluded the meeting. To-day's Sittings. The session opened this morning at ten o'clock, and after a few preliminary matters had boen disposed of, the Assembly passed to tho moat important business of tho session, namely, tho consideration of the question of Methodist Union. The Committee's report on the proposed basis of Union was then brought forward, and all the correspondence rotative to tho same was read.—Mr Macfarlane then proposed the following resolution :—" This meeting, whilst concurring in the distinctive principles of Church government which havo been maintained by the United Methodist Free Churches, fully appreciates tho liberal concessions of tho basis .of Union, and believing that the difference between the Church government of the United Methodist Freo Church and the policy indicated in the basis of union to be inconsiderable in comparison with tho advantages that union would afford in carrying out the work of God, cordially engages to enter the proposed Methodist Church of New Zea land, and hereby recommends the Annual Assembly to givo sanction to the said union. It would, howevor, suggest such alterations in the basis as would not affect the fundamental principles and as might appear desiroblo to this meeting.' In moving the resolution, he remarked that, nearly nil his life he had been a member of tho Free Church, and that for thirty-two years a minister of tho same, and that ho made this motion in the best of motives. He had been astonished with the largo concessions mado by the other branches of the Metho dist family. He held there was a difference between their own distinctive church policy pf the proposed basis, but tho differences were in considerable when compared with the advantages that Union would afford. He had laboured in circuits where thero had been a spirit of undue rivalry excited by reason of too many different sections of the Methodist churches labouring in one place ; a rivalry which did not redound to the glory of God. And if this union could do away with this spirit it would be a good thing. This union, ho maintained, would eivo them enlarged spheres .and means for usefulness. In their present posi tion thoy were crippled M to any hope of extension, and an united church would give increased facilities for carrying on the work of God. He referred to the soparate resolutions that had been passed by the different circuits on this Subject, and he thought that 7 out of the 10 were fuyjuyablp to the union. To an swering of any objections he would reserve himself till tho timo came for his reply at the end of tho discussion—Mr Bennett seconded the motion.—The Rev. M. Baxter rose to speak on " the resolution Ho was prepared to defend their own dis tinctive principles amongst any men, or against anything that had yet been said on the subject either in this or any other as- Bombly. He read over, very deliberately, the motion beforo them and criticised it it very severely, asking what were tljo fun damental principles of their body. Free representation in the Supreme Court was one principle, but in the proposed basis there \yas only half of that intended, and this he condemned in very strong language. He objected to the exclusion pf the laymen from any part of the Conference. Ho re marked also that thore was a considerable difference between their present constitu tion of circuit independence, ftnd that pro posed in the basis of union. He dwelt also ' on the struggles that had been mado to gain nnd retafn their liberal principles, and was proceeding with his' speech when the Chair man announced tho time for lunch. The debate was reeumed after the Assembly Opened for the afternoon's session.
