STORMY SESSION.
PRESBYTERIAN GENERAL ASSEMBLY. Received September 21, 10.20 a.m. MELBOURNE, Sept. 20. The Presbyterian General Assembly, after a stormy session, decided to remit the Dr. Angus case back to the New South Wales Presbytery. Motions and amendments succeeded one another rapidly and 50 members, chiefly from New South Wales, walked out amidst the uproar. The Victorian Moderator, Rev. MacAulay, in an outstanding speech, finally brought about order again and paved the way for an agreement. He made sensational disclosures concerning the' evidence submitted against Dr. Angus, which he declared valueless in a Court of law. Dr. Angus had been judged without a trial.
