(PEB FBESS ASSOCIATION). Dunrdin, September 23. At a meeting of the Clutha Presbytery a resolution was passed that — ' Attention haying been called to the report that some members of Parliament had spent a recent Sunday in visiting Westport and Dennis ton, and otherwise turning the Lord's Day into a day of business and pleasure, this presbytery, believing practices of this kind to be contrary to tbe word of God, and such as would lead to the moral and spiritual ruin of any community where they become general, express their deep regret that there should have been this violation of the law of God. They further express an earnest hope that all unnecessary labour on the Lord's Day will be firmly discountenanced by the whole Christian community, and the Sabbath preserved inviolate for the purpose of rest and worship.'
