BARRY'S BAY.

The meeting for election of a School Committee at Barry's Bay for the current year, was duly held on Monday evening last, fit the schoolroom, in this Bay. There was n very small attendance, owing, probably, to so many being busy with the grass seed harvest. The report of the outgoing Committee shewed that the expenditure for the previous year had been almost entirely confined to the ordinary expenses of the school, which by the audited accounts laid before the meeting, amounted to £181 0s Bd, leaving a balance in hand of 9s Id. The following were then elected to serve on the new committee, namely :—Messrs P. David. J. H. LeClerc, Latter, McPhail, Niblett, Prime and 11. Smith. At a committee meeting, held after the public meeting, Mr Latter was elected chairman, and after discussion, was requested to write to Messrs W. Montgomery,-M.H.Rk, and J. Inglis, and ask those gentlemen to consent to their being nominated by> this committee as members of the Board of Education. The meeting then adjourned to Monday, 11th February at seven o'clock.
