New Plymouth, Wednesday. Mr Kelly addressed the electors last evening. There was a large meeting, Mr Samuel in the chair. Mr Kelly reviewed the past session, and declared for free and purely secular education. It was creditable to the Government to ask Mr Bryce to again take the portfolio of Native Minister. He spoke enlogistically of the Volunteers, and said the House should not grudge granting subsidies when their value had been thoroughly evinced during the late native crisis. He is in favor of granting bonuses for local industries ; and concluded by showing that in the past he assisted in getting public works carried on in the district, and the country opened up. A vote of confidence was carried, only one hand against it.
