DOCTRINE FROM PULPIT.

OBJECTION BY CHURCHGOERS. PROTEST NOT SUPPORTED. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Timaru, Last Night. The Rev. P. Gladston Hughes, minister of the Chalmers Presbyterian Church, received a letter signed by six members of his congregation, which declared that he: (1) Preached an un-Scriptural and dangerous doctrine; (2) prophesied smooth things and made sin appear something less enormous than it was; (3) did not preach the Gospel. Mr. Hughes announced from the pulpit, yesterday the reception of the letter, and railed a meeting of the church session for to-night to consider it, stating that if the charge was true he should not be there. The meeting of the session was not open to the Press, but the result was that the session unanmously decided that the charges were groundless, and in a most emphatic manner repudiated them. The writer of the letter stated he did not desire to lay the charges before the authorities of the church.
