Yesterday. At the Presbyterian Church Assembly to day,before Ihe minutes were confirmed, the Rev. D. W. Bunciman entered his dissent to the proceedure that had been followed by the Assembly in the Christchurch case anent the Eev. Mr Fraser's deposition. He maintained it was entirely irregular to review the procedure of the Christchurch Presbytery in the way that had been done. The rev. gentleman was proceeding to argue his contention when he was overruled by the Moderator. The minutes were then confirmed. On the motion of the Key. W. Gillies, seconded by the Rev. J. Patersou, the Christchureh Presbytery was authorised to communicate with the Free Church of Scotland with the object of securing St. Andrew's Church and property, and having them put in possession of St. Andrew's congregation. An address to the Governor, Sir W. Jervois, was adopted. It is to be presented by the Wellington Presbytery. The Mayor gives a garden party tomorrow afternoon, in honor of the members of the Presbyterian General Assembly.
