A. and N.Z. SYDNEY. Sept. 12. The committee's report on church union between the Presbyterian, Methodist, and Congregational Churches of Australia has been presented to the Presbyterian Assembly. It stated inter 'alia, that the fact that there was such a divided state of feeling and opinion among office-bearers and the people of the Presbyterian Church over bringing about union, makes it inadvisable for the present to press forward to an organic union on a common basis of doctrino and policy at the risk of serious division and fresh separation. The committee, therefore, recommended that the negotiations bo suspended.
