A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by "The Petty Sessions Act, 1865,"

deemed expedient, the Governor shall, by Proclama-
tion in the New Zealand Gazette, appoint a meeting
of the Justices of the Peace resident in such district
to be yearly held within such district at some
specified time and place, for the purpose of choosing

bearing date the twenty-second day of July, one
thousand eight hundred and sixty-eight, certain Petty
Sessions Districts, including the district hereinafter

by a Proclamation bearing date the twenty-fourth day

eight, a certain time and place for the meetings of the

whereas it is expedient that the times of meeting
proclaimed and appointed by such Proclamation
should be altered:

Now therefore I, Sir George Ferguson Bowen, the
Governor of New Zealand, in pursuance and in
exercise of the power and authority in that behalf
vested in me, do hereby proclaim and appoint that,

of the Peace resident within such district shall be
