ALEXANDRA.

School Examination.—Our public school children were examined in standards by Mr Crowe, sellout inspectcr, on the 13th instant, and the result must be considered a very satisfactory one to our new schoolmaster, Mr McNaughten, considering the difficulties hfl has had to contend witli by the irregular attendance of the scholars during the last winter months. Only 21 were presented for examination in the standards, with 'J failures; the percentage of failures being o'S ; passes, 44.1. This plainly shows that we have been very fortunate in having the services of so painstaking a teacher for our school. The Weather. —We have tine growing weather here lately, and for outdoor work Once morn the natives have pl-uited wheat and oat crops on the Whatiwhatihoe fl it, which is looking well, notwithstanding the same ground has for many years grown grain without any kind of assistance in bonedust or any other manure. Some of our settlers are making enquiries as to what support would be given in establishing a butter factory, and find that the milk of some 300 cows would be supplied if one were established.
