HEREAS by the one hundred and thirty-third
section of an Act of the General Assembly of
New Zealand, intituled "The Municipal Corporations
Act, 1867," it is enacted that it shall be the duty of
the Town Clerk of every borough, as soon as con-
veniently may be after every election of a Mayor for
such borough, to give notice to the Colonial Secretary
for the time being of such election, and of the person
elected; and it shall be lawful for the Governor, if he
shall think fit, and if such person shall not then be a
Justice of the Peace, by warrant under his hand
published in the New Zealand Gazette, to appoint
such person to be a Justice of the Peace for the
Colony; and it is also thereby enacted that in every
such appointment it shall be expressed that it is made
under the one hundred and thirty-third section of
the said Act; and it is further declared that such
appointment shall continue in force only during
the Mayoralty of such person, and the person so
appointed shall not, by virtue of such appointment,
be authorized to sit or act as a Justice of the Peace
elsewhere than within the borough:

Now therefore I, Sir George Ferguson Bowen,
the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in pur-
suance and exercise of the said power and authority
in me vested in this behalf, do hereby appoint

JOHN SMITH WILLCOX, Esq., and
JOHN ANDERSON, Esq.,

the persons elected to be respectively the Mayor of
the Borough of Lyttelton, and the Mayor of the
City of Christchurch, to be Justices of the Peace
under the one hundred and thirty-third section of
"The Municipal Corporations Act, 1867."
