One, though not the chief, good re- sulting from the introduction of the ballot at elections is the greater quietness and freedom from disturbances than there used to be when it was known how every elector voted and how the fstrugglo was progressing. The change for the better is to be noticed at munici- pol us well as at parliamentary contests; unation ;:rccve, R.

There was a question be- fore the ratepayers that could not be settled-on that day, so another meeting was called, for the satisfaction of tho' ratepayers, on the following Friday. evening, and a vote was taken no to whether there would be two teachers or only one, which resulted in a majority of nine against paying two teachers.
