WELLINGTON, THURSDAY, MAY 16, 1867.

G. GREY, Governor.
A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by "The Marriage Act Amendment
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 into 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
proclamation 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 twenty-ninth day of August,
one thousand eight hundred and sixty-six, the Gover-
nor, in pursuance of the said recited power and
authority, did constitute a district for the purposes
of the said Act, called the "Clutha District," the
boundaries whereof were therein set forth, which
said proclamation came into operation and took effect
on the first day of October, one thousand eight
hundred and sixty-six.

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 "Clutha District," and do proclaim
and declare that the territory formerly comprised
within such district shall be and is hereby divided for
the purposes of the said Act into two districts, the
names and boundaries whereof shall be as follows:-

KAIHIKU DISTRICT
comprises the whole of the area contained within
the West Clutha Hundred, bounded towards the
north-west by the Popotunoa Registration District,
towards the north-east by the Clutha River, towards
the south-east by the East Clutha Hundred, and
towards the south-west by the Popotunoa Registra-
tion District.

CLUTHA DISTRICT
comprises all that area bounded towards the north-
west by the West Clutha Hundred, towards the east
by the Clutha and its Kaou branch, towards the
south by the ocean, and towards the west by the
Popotunoa Registration District.

And I hereby declare that this proclamation shall
come into operation and take effect on the tenth day
of June, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-seven.

Given under the hand of His Excellency Sir
George Grey, Knight Commander of the
Most Honorable Order of the Bath,
Governor and Commander-in-Chief in
and over Her Majesty's Colony of New
Zealand and its Dependencies, and issued
under the Seal of the said Colony, at
Wellington, this fourteenth day of May,
in the year of our Lord one thousand
eight hundred and sixty-seven.

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 Zea-
land for the purposes of the said Act into 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 pro-
clamation dividing the Colony or any part of it anew
into districts, or increasing the number or altering
