PROCLAMATION

Rescinding Proclamation of 13th November, 1861, under "The Diseased Cattle Act, 1861," so far as it relates to the Colonies of New South Wales and Queensland.

By His Honor WILLIAM HENRY EYES, Esquire, Superintendent of the Province of Marlborough, in the Islands of New Zealand, &c., &c., &c.

WHEREAS by virtue of the powers delegated to, and vested in him in that behalf, by "The Diseased Cattle Act, 1861," WILLIAM DOUGLAS HALL BAILEY, Esq., the then Superintendent of the Province of Marlborough, did, by a proclamation published in the Government Gazette of the said Province, and dated the thirteenth day of November, 1861, declare that after the date thereof, the several Colonies of Australia, as well as the Colony of Tasmania, and the Colony of the Cape of Good Hope, and the Islands of Great Britain and Ireland should be deemed to be for the purposes of the above recited Act, infected districts within the meaning of the said Act, and that no Cattle should be imported from the above-mentioned districts: that is to say, the Colony of Victoria, of New South Wales, of Queensland, of South Australia, and Western Australia. And whereas it has seemed to me expedient that the Colonies of New South Wales and Queensland should no longer be considered to be infected districts, and that the importation of Cattle from thence should no longer be restrained:

Now therefore, I, William Henry Eyes, Esquire, Superintendent of the Province of Marlborough, by virtue of the powers delegated to and vested in me in this behalf, do hereby revoke and cancel the aforesaid Proclamation of the thirteenth November, 1861, in so far as it relates to the Colonies of New South Wales and Queensland: And I hereby further declare that this Proclamation shall take effect on and after the first day of May next ensuing.

Given under my hand, and issued under the Public Seal of the Province of Marlborough, at Blenheim, this eighteenth day of March, One thousand eight hundred and sixty-seven.

W. H. EYES,
Superintendent.

By his Honor’s command,
JAMES BALFOUR WEYMS,
Provincial Secretary.
