PublleAteeting.
The publie meeting held in the Town
Hall on Tuesdey evening for the dis
cussime of publie school matters was
largely attended arid very enthusiastic.
The old trustees and the nominees for
election each spoke at some length, and
while th'e oratory was good, the amount
of cross firing and picking holes in one
another's character exceeded anything
before ba..ta, it, Exeter. Some of the
speakers were badly out of temper and
the fear of Britieh law only, we believe,.
prevented some fisticifff encounters.
The question of changing the mode of
election from the opeu to the secret
ballot was again brought, up, and after
considerable diseeesion a show of hands
was talrea which vistaed in the system
being changed from the open to the
secret ballot. An expression cf the
electors as to the purchase of additional
school grounds, was unanimous ia favor
of the action the Board had taken in
