By Telegraph—Press Association. , Christchurch, July 10. The matter of observance of holy days came before the Christchurch Presbytery again* to-day, when it was agreed to transmit to the General Assembly the following overture submitted by the Kev. J. Dickson:—"Whereas it lias seemed good I o a number of our worthy ministers in some parts of the Church to take notice of Good Friday and other holy days by holding special servir/s and the Lord's Slipper thereon, in the interests as they believe of the Kingdom of God, mid whereas, in the estimation of others, the public celebration of those holy days, as contrary to the law and practice of the Church, and whereas some conscientiously believe that the tendency of tho above practice is to belittle the Lord's Day, and as not differing from that of many who celebrate these days, to throw a stumbling-block in tho way of weaker brethren, and to lead the neople Homewards, this Presbytery hereby overtures the General Assembly to define the Church's position in these matters, in order to conserve the peace of ihc Church, and as far as possible uniformity of worship, or to do as in itswisdom may seem best."
