BOARD OF EDUCATION.

A MEETING of this Board was held yester day afternoon in the offices, Wyndhara. stnret. Present: Messrs Moat (in the chair), Luke, Prime, Clarlc, and. Golilje. MinuThs.—Tha minutes ot the previoaa mectiag were read and confirmed. Pollock isktt-EMEnt.—Mr Luke ' brought forward his n.otion iv regard to the want of a school-house in this settle ment. He considered it the duty of the B lard to iind, as far as possible, sufficient school accommodation, Ihe Pollock school had been closed for eighteen months entirely through the want of a district school-house. Tbe district had been proclaimed a school district as far buck as 1873, and a local committee was formed under the Act of 1877. He had been credibly informed that a suitable site was available, and could be handed over to the Board as soon as they were prepared to erect a school. He would move, "That plans and specifications be prepared as soon as a suitable site was secured,"—Mr Clark (Mayor) seconded Mr Luke's motion, and made some remarks on the reasonable ness of the proposal,—The Chairman suggested that Mr Luke's motion should be received.—Mr Goldie said there were twenty.eighi children, and generally, he approved of the plan. The former resolutions of the Board on the subject were rescinded.—Mr Luke then moved, " That plans and specifications for a schoolhouso at Pollock be prepared, and tenders called as soon as an approved Bite is conveyed to the Board.—Mr Clark (Mayor) seconded the resolution.— Carded unanimously. Applications.—A number of applica tions were received from country districts for small grants, &c. Buckland school-house. — The In. spector considered I hat the district should be visited before the grant was made. Hoteo North.—A letter was received from this dis'rict, complaining of the con duct of Mr Aaron Pearson, one of the Board, who only appeared an obstruction; hoping that tho Board would see its way to the erection of a schoolhouso, A very long letter was also received from a scholar, full of complaints about extra sums, and not receiving a prize, &c. The Board resolved to adhere to its former resolution on these matters, and that the chairman be informed thereof. KAITAIA,—Asking for 25s for the school. —Granted. KAUKAPAKAPA.—Committee ask for £15 or £20 for repairing the teacher's house. —Declined. Makhtu.—The committee offer an acre for school site at Ararimu, and guarantee £10 towards the school.—Mr Sullivan stated thit the site was unsuitable, Maungatauroto.-Application for grant for supply of water and other necessaiies in connection with school-house, - Mr Goldie suggested that enquiries should be made before spending any money, especially in regard to water, as there might be a stream of water at hand.—Mr Clarlc wos in favour of a tank, as streams were not always wholesome, — Left to the Com mittee, with power to act iv respect to the water. Panmuee.—Asking for £3 10s, for pur. pose previously explained, viz,, planting trees. —The Chairman said he believed there would be an entertainment shortly for this object. Girls' High School.—a letter wan re ceived from Mr Neil Heath explaining why fires had not been kept in the school. Mr Heath said the ceilings of the buildings were so low, and the atmosphere so bad, that the pupils were marie uncomfortable and were constantly suffering from cold, al» though Mi s Heath did her best to make them comfol table in wet weather. He recom mended pupils to bring slippers and dry stockings to change on reaching the school. The buildingwas unsuitable for the purposes for which it employed —Hia Worship the Mayor thought there was only one way of remedying the difficulty, and that waa by building anew school—The Board endorsed this opinion, and considered the matter ought to ba urged upon the Govern-' ment.—Mr luke suggested that the desirability of establishing an Agricultural School or College tor this district ought to be pressed at the same time. — Tha Mayor : I perceive that Sir George Gicy is taking eDcrgetic action in this direction, I think it may be well left in his hands.

PARNELL AND THE CUT.

(To tho Editor.)

Sin,—Some little time ego a petition to join the oity was taken to a few of the burgesses of Parnell for signature, but tho movement does not apposr to navo beon prosecuted with any Kro.t amount of vigour or judgment, and has, apparently, died a natural death. This ia greatly to be deplored, as it ia pretty oortaln that a considerable majority are in favour of oaatteg in their lot with oar big brother. The only arguments that s>oni to have keen put forward, by tho antagonists are " that we uro quite able to msnago our own affairs." and that "the' City only wants to net us In, in order that thoy may raisea fresh loan." hegardlng the latter objec tion, I frankly admit that tho Kngllßh mosey leader must be looking with longing eyes on Parnell bs a security for his thousands. Com ioglback to tbo question of managing our o«n affairs, whilo admitting that tbe Council; at the present time, is composed of a considerably better stump of men on tbo whole, than tha average since tho borough was formed, still, at any Urns what has occurred before may ccour aga'n — two or three mon with, more verbosity than common sense may |be elected, turn the Connell chamber into a bear garden, disgust and drive out the respeotablo members, and again make tbe suburb a laughing stock. The whole revenue of the borough not being more than the prlvato expenditure of perhaps several residents in tho borough, the position ot councillor is not a sufficiently responsible one to have any attraction for many good men, our choice being thus very much limited, as to our not receiving fair treatment shoqld we join the oity. It is only just to lcokhow the expenditure IS allocated within the present boundaries, and I for ono havo heard no complaints of any moment. Looking round we see Grafton resi dents anxious to j >in—they know what they are about generally—Ponsonby already practically inonroorated (PonßOntnrlans are not Often oaught napping). Karangahape will'ng to go In also. Let us packet ou- petty prido, and, before Is it too late, form an Important ward ot what is to be tho first city in New Zealand, rather than r-tnnd aloof and be poor pretentious Parnell tor all time.—l am, See,, - AUNBLL BORG-SS.

Tho sale of tho Goldsmith's Hall Com pany's stock of jewellery, which was com menced, by Mr Gabriel Lewis, yesterday, proved the means of demonstrating tho abundance ot surplus cash in the com munity. There was a largo attendance of bidders from begianiDg to end, tine competi tion was brisk, and sometimes keen, while all the purchases were paid for on the spot with either coin or hank notes. Several hundreds of pounds were thus taken in the course of a very few hours. The clocks seamed to be in greatest demand, while the diamond rings appeared to be " the most wonderful bargains," Mr W, Thome securing one of four stones for £7, and tbe others being disposed of at proportionately low prices, The eale was continued to day, and although quite as well attended as yesterday, tho articles did not command such high prices. Still there was nothing to complain of in this respect, A number of gold alberls, brooches, and earrings went rather cheaply.

The Company was originally projected for tho purpose o£ acquiring blocks of good suburban land to bo re-sold in lols suitnblo for residonco sites, and recently, with the view of adding to tho valucof their lands by affording greater facilities of access, tho Provi.-ionnl Directors havo entered into arrangements for providing a system of Tramways for the City and Suburb 3. I An agreement has been made with the City Council by which tbo Company has secured the . exclusive right to construct and work such Tramways fur a period of twonty-ono years, and tho terms of the oonecasion leave no room to doubt that tho undertaking will ho advanta geous to tho community and profitable to the proprietors. Tho proportion already purchased consist'of sovurul blocks of clioieo land, comprising the St, llelier's Hay Karate of RIO uo-es. tho ltemuera Land Compnny's Estate of 117 acres, nnd tbo Norlhoote Estate of 1012 acres, amounting in all to 1719 acres; the wholo being admirably adapted for villa sHes.combininKthoadvantnges of extensive frontage to the Waitcmata Har bour, picturesque scenery and soil of excellent quality, together with proximity to tho city, Tho sales already effected have averaged £200 per aero in Itomuora,and £120 at St. llelier's, and land adjacent to the Northcoto Estate has been recently sold at £100 por acre. Tho directors call special attention to tho great increase of value which lias resulted from the construction of tramways in suburban districts in other places, amounting in some cases to ten times the original cost; and as tho Company's lauds were purchased before any provision of tho kind had been mado, it is rcasonnbtc to anticipate a, similar favourable result in the present Instance, it is intended to proceed with tho construction of tho linos already agreed upon as soon ns tho necessary materials can be obtained, tho Company having agreed to open tlio tralllc and have cars run ning within Kioili'KKN months from date of concession. Tho Directors have secured tho services of a gentleman of large oxperiencn in the practical working of tramways in tho British Islands, and can confidently recommend tho enterprise to their fallow colonists, in tho full conviction that it will prove a good investment. Applications havo been received for 05,000 shares, leaving 00,000 still to be taken up.
