Proclamation and Government Tenders




THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE. 117

Now, therefore I, William Henry Eyes, Esquire, by
virtue of the powers delegated to and vested in me in
this behalf, do hereby proclaim and declare that on and
after the tenth day of March, all that district of the
Province of Marlborough lying between the Clarence
River, the Conway River, the seaward Kaikoura
Range and the sea, shall be deemed to be an infected
district under "The Diseased Cattle Act, 1861," and
I further proclaim and declare that any person
removing cattle out of the said district as herein
defined, shall be liable to the penalties as fixed in
the twelfth clause of the said Act.

Given under my hand, and the Public Seal of
the Province, at Blenheim, this nine-
teenth day of February, one thousand
eight hundred and sixty-eight.

W. H. EYES,
Superintendent.

By His Honor's command,
JAMES BALFOUR WEMYSS,
Provincial Secretary.

Approved-G. F. BOWEN,
5th March, 1868.

Colonial Secretary's Office,
Wellington, 9th March, 1868.

TENDERS will be received at this Office until the
first of May 1868, from persons willing to
supply the New Zealand Government with Stationery,
to be delivered free of expense in this Colony, at
such Port as the Government may indicate, for the
twelvemonths commencing on the first June, 1868.

  1. The value of all necessary packages, whether
    bulk be broken or not, must be included in the prices
    demanded, and the net weight or quantity only will
    be paid for.

  2. A bond for the sum of £1000, the contractor in
    the sum of £500 and two approved sureties £500
    each, for the due performance of the contract, will be
    required to be entered into within a month of the
    acceptance of the contract.

  3. The tenderers will be required to forward
    samples of the articles marked with an asterisk.

  4. The supplies are to be according to sample and
    of the particular manufacture indicated in the
    Schedule.

  5. In the case of different makers' goods the con-
    tractors will be required to supply the kind ordered.

  6. Orders must receive prompt execution.

  7. The contractor will be required to furnish his
    account in the prescribed form simultaneously with
    delivery of the full quantity of goods ordered, the
    account being rendered with the order to which it
    relates.

  8. The acceptance of the supplies will be subject
    to the approval of the officers in the various Pro-
    vinces appointed by the Government. The con-
    tractor may, however, claim a survey on any goods
    objected to, but in that case he must without delay
    give notice thereof in writing to the officer rejecting
    the goods.

  9. Delivery will not be deemed to have been made
    until the goods have been approved of. All articles
    rejected must be immediately replaced by the con-
    tractor, otherwise purchases will be effected at the
    contractor's risk, and the extra expense incurred over
    and above the contract price (if any) will be deducted
    from the contractor's account.

  10. It will be competent either for the contractor
    on his own behalf, or for the Honorable the Colonial
    Secretary on behalf of the Government, to terminate
    the contract by giving notice in writing of three
    months to the opposite party; it being understood
    that such notice can be given only from the first day
    of a month and within the period for which the con-
    tract is made.

  11. In the event of any alteration in the Tariff
    affecting any of the items included in the contract,
    the Government or the contractor, as may be the
    case, will make a proportional allowance, by way of
    deduction from or increase of the price of the item
    so affected.

W. GISBORNE,
Under Secretary.
