A PROCLAMATION.

HEREAS 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
Proclamation 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 twelfth day of November,
one thousand eight hundred and sixty-seven, the
Governor, in pursuance of the said recited power and
authority, did amongst others constitute a district for
the purposes of the said Act, called the "Gabriel's "
District, the boundaries whereof were therein set
forth, which said Proclamation came into operation
and took effect on the second day of December, one
thousand eight hundred and sixty-seven:

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 amongst others constitute districts

kouaiti" and "Hamilton" Districts, 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 Proclamations as relates to the said districts,
and to divide anew the territory formerly comprised
within such districts:

Now therefore, I, Sir George Ferguson Bowen, 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
Proclamations so far as relates to the said districts,
