THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE.

G. GREY, Governor.
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 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 thirtieth day of November,
one thousand eight hundred and sixty-five, the
Governor, in pursuance of the said recited power
and authority, did constitute two districts for the
purposes of the said Act, called the "Dunstan
District" and "Wanaka District," the boundaries
whereof were therein set forth, which said proclama-
tion came into operation and took effect on the first
day of February, 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 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 "Dunstan District" and "Wanaka
District," and do proclaim and declare that the terri-
tory formerly comprised within such districts 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:—

Cromwell District.

Comprises all that area bounded towards the
North by the Province of Canterbury; towards the
East by Oamaru and Blackstone Registration Dis-
tricts; towards the South by the Dunstan Registra-
tion District; and towards the West by the Dunstan,
Arrow, and Wakatip Registration Districts.

Dunstan District.

Comprises all that area bounded by a line proceeding
from the northern corner of Manuherikia Registra-
tion District to the Dunstan Creek at its junction
with the Manuherikia River; thence by the said
Dunstan Creek to the Dunstan Mountains; thence
by the Dunstan Mountains to the Clutha River;
across the Clutha River and over Cairnmuir Hill to
the Carrick Ranges; and by the Carrick Ranges to
the Kawarau River; thence by the Kawarau River
to a point due north of Ben Nevis; thence by the
range to Lorn Peak; thence by the Nokomai and
Switzers and Manuherikia Districts to the starting
point.

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

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 twentieth day of

January, in the year of our Lord one
thousand eight hundred and sixty-eight.

GOD SAVE THE QUEEN!
