A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by "The Registration Act, 1858," it is
enacted that it shall be lawful for the Governor
by proclamation in the New Zealand
divide the Colony of New Zealand for the
of the said Act into such and so many
as he may think fit, and that every such

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 August, one
thousand eight hundred and sixty-one, the Governor,
in pursuance of the said recited power and
authority, did constitute a district for the purposes
of the said Act, called the "Mount Grey District,"
the boundaries whereof were therein set forth, which
said proclamation came into operation and took effect
on the first day of November, one thousand eight
hundred and sixty-one.

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 "Mount Grey District," and do pro-
claim 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 boundaries whereof shall be
as follows:-

MOUNT GREY DISTRICT.
Bounded on the North by the southern bank of the
River Waipara and the southern branch of that
river to its source, thence by a straight line to the
summit of Block Hill, thence by a straight line to
the source of the River Ashley, on the West and
South by the northern bank of the Ashley, and on
the East by the sea.

WAIPARA DISTRICT.
Bounded on the North by the Province of Nelson;
on the East by the sea, on the South by the southern
bank of the River Waipara and the southern branch
of that river to its source, thence by a straight line

passing over Ashley and Esk Head and Snowy Peak
to the Teramakau Saddle.

And I hereby declare that this proclamation shall
come into operation and take effect on the first day
of November, 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

Wellington, this thirtieth day of Sep-
tember, in the year of our Lord one
