A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by an Order in Council dated the
ninth day of August, one thousand eight
hundred and seventy-one, made under the provi-
sions of "The Immigration and Public Works Act,
1870," certain road works between Greymouth and
Ross, in the County of Westland, were prescribed
and declared to be road works for the purposes of
the said Act: And whereas by "The Immigration
and Public Works Act, 1872," it is, among other
things, enacted that all the provisions contained in
Part I. and in Part VI. of "The Immigration and
Public Works Act, 1870," shall be applicable to the
County of Westland and the Nelson South-West
Gold Fields, and may be adapted and used with
reference to those portions of the Colony as if such
portions had formed part of the North Island: And
whereas by the said firstly in part recited Act it is,
among other things, enacted that the Governor from
time to time, by Proclamation published in the New
Zealand Gazette, may define the roads and the
boundaries thereof, and the bridges and ferries which
shall be and be deemed to be roads, bridges, or
ferries, as the case may be, under the provisions of
the said Act, and any such Proclamation may include
existing roads, but no such roads or parts of roads
shall be included if they are, in the opinion of the
Governor in Council, roads which should be con-
structed by the Superintendent and the Provincial
Council of the Province wherein such roads are
situated, as well as new road lines; and the
Governor may from time to time revoke or alter any
such Proclamation: And whereas it has been
deemed expedient to alter the line of a portion of
the said road from Greymouth to Ross, namely, that
portion thereof lying between Greymouth and
Marsden:

Now therefore, I, Sir James Fergusson, Baronet,
the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in pur-
suance and exercise of every power and authority
enabling me in that behalf, do hereby proclaim and
declare that the said line of road shall be altered by
excepting thereout that portion of the said road
works between Omutumutu and Marsden, and that
in lieu thereof a road between Greymouth and
Marsden by way of what is known as the "Sawyer's
Creek Route," as the same is described in the
Schedule hereto, shall be constructed, under the
powers in the said Acts contained, and shall be and
become a part of the said road from Greymouth to
Ross: And I do hereby also proclaim and declare
that, in accordance with the provisions of "The
Immigration and Public Works Act, 1870," the piece
of road so intended to become part of the said road
from Greymouth to Ross is delineated on a map and
survey plan thereof deposited in the office of the
Public Works Department at Greymouth, in the
County of Westland, describing the course and bear-
ings and the admeasurements required for the same,
