clamation may refer to maps, plans, or drawings to
be deposited in the office of the Registrar or Deputy,
Registrar of the Supreme Court in the province in
which such railway or part thereof is proposed to be
constructed, and any maps, plans, or drawings so
referred to shall be deemed to form part of such
Proclamation; and upon the publication of such
Proclamation, the provisions and regulations con-
tained in the Seventh Part of the said Act shall be
applicable to the railway, and to the lands to which
the Proclamation shall relate: And it is also thereby

aforesaid, with proper works, approaches, and con-
veniences connected therewith, commencing at the
place delineated on, and extending along the lines
set forth in, and terminating at a point described in
the Act or Proclamation proclaiming and defining
such railway, or shown in the maps, plans, or draw-
ings referred to in such Act or Proclamation: And
it is also thereby enacted that the Governor may
direct that any part of such line of railway may be
constructed on and along any part of any public
highway, and that any part of any such line of rail-
way may be constructed on or through any public
reserves: And it is also thereby enacted that, sub-
ject to the provisions of that Part of the said Act
and of the Acts incorporated therewith, the Governor
may exercise all or any of the powers by that Part of
the said Act or the said incorporated Acts conferred
upon him for the construction of any such railway,
and may enter upon, and cause to be entered upon,
all lands within the colony for the purpose of
making such surveys as may be necessary, and may
take and hold all the lands required for the railway
along the line set forth and described as aforesaid, or
within the limits of deviation described in the Pro-
clamation relating thereto, and may temporarily
occupy and use such lands as may be necessary on
either side of the railway, during the construction
thereof:

And whereas by "The Railways Act, 1871," "The
Railwas Act, 1872," "The Railways Act, 1873," and
"The Railways Act, 1874," it is enacted that the
Governor may, under the provisions of the herein-
before firstly recited Act and of the now reciting
Acts, construct and maintain, or cause to be con-
structed and maintained, the several lines of railway
specified therein; and it is also thereby enacted
that the line of the railways thereby authorized to be
constructed shall be fixed by the Governor, and shall
commence and terminate at points to be fixed by the
Governor: And whereas by "The Immigration and
Public Works Act, 1872," it is enacted that as to
any railway which the Governor has been authorized
to construct, and to fix the commencing and termina-
tion points and line thereof, it shall be competent for
him, if he thinks fit, instead of fixing and proclaiming
such points and the whole line at one time, to fix and
proclaim portions of such line from time to time, and
the commencing and termination points of any such
portion or portions, and the limits and description of
any such portion or portions, and the lands proposed
to be taken for the purpose of any such portion or
portions, and to construct any portion or portions so
fixed, and to take the lands for the same; and any
such portion so proclaimed shall be deemed to be a
railway within the meaning of the said Act and the
said amending Act and this Act:

And whereas by "The Immigration and Public
Works Act, 1872," it is enacted that, at any time
after the expiration of twenty-one days from the
publication in the New Zealand Gazette, and in a
newspaper ordinarily circulating in the district, of a
Proclamation under the thirteenth section of the
said Act, whether of the whole or a portion or por-

tions of a line of railway, the Governor, on behalf of
Her Majesty, may enter upon, take possession of,
use and hold, or cause to be entered upon, taken
possession of, used and held, so much of the lands
defined in such Proclamation as proposed to be
taken as shall be required to be taken, purchased or
permanently used for the purposes of such railway,
notwithstanding that an agreement shall not have
been come to or an award made for the purchase or
compensation money to be paid in respect of such
lands:

And whereas by the said last-mentioned Act it is
also enacted that in any case in which a road or right
of road has been or hereafter may be reserved in any
Crown grant, and in any case in which, under "The
Native Lands Act, 1865," or any law for the time
being in force relating to the sale of waste lands of
the Crown, or any law whatever, there is a right to
take a public road through any lands, it shall be law-
ful, after such road shall have been surveyed, to con-
struct under the said Acts any railway, or any part of
any railway, on the road so surveyed, notwithstanding
that such road may not have been made:

And whereas the Governor has determined to
construct and maintain a portion of the railway
from Waipukurau to Manawatu, authorized to be
constructed by "The Railways Act, 1874:"

Now therefore, I, the Most Honorable George
Augustus Constantine, Marquis of Normanby, the
Administrator of the Government of the Colony of
New Zealand, in exercise and pursuance of the powers
and authorities conferred on me by the hereinbefore
in part recited Acts, and in exercise of every other

of all powers and authorities conferred on me in that
behalf, I do hereby fix the point of commencement
