GOD SAVE THE QUEEN!

A PROCLAMATION
Appointing certain Districts under the "Regis-
tration Act."

By His Excellency Sir GEORGE
GREY, Knight Commander of
the Most Honorable Order of
the Bath, Governor and Com-
mander-in-Chief in and over
Her Majesty's Colony of New
Zealand and its Dependencies,
and Vice-Admiral of the same,
&c., &c., &c.

WHEREAS by the "Registration Act,
1858," it is enacted that it shall be
lawful for the Governor at any time, by
Proclamation in the New Zealand Gazette,
to divide the Colony of New Zealand for the
purposes of the said Act in such and so many
Districts as he may think fit, and that every
such District shall be called by a distinct
name, and shall be a Registrar's District.
And it is provided that the Governor may
at any time revoke the whole or any part of
such Proclamation, and issue a new Proclama-
tion dividing the Colony or any part of it
anew into Districts, or increasing the number,
or altering the boundaries of Districts as from
time to time he may think requisite.

And whereas by a Proclamation duly made
and issued, bearing date the sixteenth day of
July, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-
three, the Governor, in pursuance of the said
recited power and authority, did amongst
others constitute a District for the purposes
of the said Act called the Dunedin District,
the boundaries whereof were therein set
forth, which said Proclamation came into
operation and took effect on the first day of
September, one thousand eight hundred and
sixty-three.

And whereas it is expedient to revoke so
much of the said Proclamation as relates to
the said District, and to divide anew the
territory formerly comprised within such
District.

Now, therefore, I, Sir George Grey, the
Governor of the said Colony, in pursuance
and exercise of the power and authority vested
in me by the said recited Act, do hereby
revoke the said Proclamation so far as relates
to the Dunedin District, and do proclaim
and declare that the territory formerly com-
prised within such District shall be and is
hereby divided for the purposes of the said
Act into two Districts, the names and bound-
aries whereof shall be as follows:-
