A. PROCLAMATION.

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 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 proclamations duly made and
issued, bearing date respectively the thirtieth day of
November, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-
five, and the twenty-ninth day of August, one
thousand eight hundred and sixty-six, the Governor,
in pursuance of the said recited power and authority,
did constitute two districts for the purposes of the
said Act, called respectively the "Nokomai," and the
"Popotuna" Districts, the boundaries of the
"Nokomai" District, being set forth in the first-
named proclamation, which said proclamation came
into operation and took effect on the first day of
February, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-six,
and the boundaries of the "Popotuna" District, being
set forth in the last named proclamation, 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 proclamations as relates to the said districts,
and to divide anew the territory formerly comprised
within such districts:

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 "Nokomai" and "Popotuna" Districts,
and do proclaim and declare that the territory
formerly comprised within such districts, shall be
and is hereby divided for the purposes of the said
Act into the two following districts, the names and
boundaries whereof shall be as follows:—

POPOTUNA DISTRICT

the Waikaka Stream with the River Mataura, thence

run to the Pomahaka River, thence along the
southern and eastern boundaries of McKenzie's
run No. 163 to the north-western angle of the
Gabriel's Registration District, thence southwards
parallel to the Clutha River at a distance of twenty

the Crookburn, thence to the Clutha River at the
said junction, thence along the Clutha River to the
northern angle of the West Clutha Hundred, thence

of the said hundred and the western boundary of

River, thence northwards up the said Mataura River
to the junction of the Waikaka Stream the com-
mencing point.

NOKOMAI AND SWITZERS DISTRICT
bounded by a line from Lorn Peak near the southern
extremity of Lake Whakatipu westwards to a point
in the boundary of the Province of Southland two
miles above the junction of the Allanburn with the
River Mataura which forms the said provincial
boundary, thence southwards along the said Mataura
River downwards to the junction of the Waikaka
Stream, thence eastwards along the southern and
eastern boundary of McNab's run No. 111 to Logan's
run No. 175A, thence along the south-eastern
boundary of Logan's run to the Pomahaka River,
thence along the southern and eastern boundary of
McKenzie's run No. 163 to the north-western angle
of Gabriel's Registration District opposite to the
junction of the Beaumont Creek with the River
Clutha, thence northwards parallel to the said River
Clutha to the source of the Spylawburn, thence direct
to Wart Hill, thence by the Umbrella Mountains
to a point due west of Jordan Creek at its junction
with the River Clutha, thence by the ranges to Rocky
Mountain, thence direct to Lorn Peak the commencing
point.

And I do declare that this proclamation shall come
into operation and take effect on the tenth day of
October, 1867.

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
