AUCKLAND.
This day. At a meeting of the Governors of the Grammar School to-day, Mr Hesketh gave notice of a series of resolutions to the effect that the recent decisions of the Board re notice of termination of engagements to the masters of the school, and the entrance upon "negotiations for the procuring of a University graduate as head master, be revoked and annulled on various:grounds, but principally because the decisions were hastily and irregularly arrived at, and because those who constituted the majority were Sir George o'K.orke, Mr|Fenton, and the three
! nonrnees whose emotion they secured by personally soliciting votes for them, viz., Brookfield, Tele, and Nelson. The resolutions are couched in very bitter terms, j;and are likely to provoke a mosj acrimoinious discussion. Sir G. M. O'Borko stigmatised them as most-offensive. Mr Glark'also ga * e notice that he would move that Government take over" the present College for the purposes of the Girls' High School, and the cost to the Board of erecting another building.
