A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by "The Immigration and Public
Works Act, 1872," it is, among other things,
enacted, that whenever it shall become necessary
that any lands which the Governor or the Minister
is, by or under the Acts therein mentioned, or any
Act authorizing the construction of any railway by
the Governor or Minister, authorized to purchase or
take for such railway, or any portion thereof on or
over which a railway authorized by the said Acts, or
any Act to be passed in pursuance thereof, has been
or may hereafter be constructed, should be vested in
Her Majesty the Queen, it shall be lawful for the
Governor or the Minister to cause a map of all such
lands as may have been taken or purchased under
the said Acts, or any Act authorizing the construc-
tion of any railway as aforesaid, or any portion of
such railway, to be prepared. Such map shall fully
and accurately set forth the pieces or parcels of land
intended to be taken and permanently used, or
which have been purchased or taken, or are required
to be vested in Her Majesty for the purposes of any
such railway, and shall be authenticated by the sig-
nature of the Minister, or by that of some person to
be appointed by him for that purpose from time to
time. And it is also enacted that the Minister shall
cause the map to be deposited in the office of the
Registrar of Deeds for the Registration District
within which the lands shall be situated, or if the
lands set forth on any such map shall extend beyond
the boundaries of any one district, then such map
shall be prepared in so many parts as shall be
requisite to delineate the lands within each such
district, and the map or the parts thereof as afore-
said shall be deposited in the office of the Registrar
of Deeds in each Registration District where the
lands shall be situated to which such map relates;
but for the purposes of the said Act, such map,
although consisting of several parts, shall only be
deemed to be one map: And whereas by the said
Act it is further enacted, that it shall thereupon be
lawful for the Governor from time to time, by Pro-
clamation in the New Zealand Gazette, to declare
that the lands set forth in such map, or any of them,
have been taken or acquired for the purposes of the
railway in respect of which the same shall have been
taken or acquired under the said Acts, or any Act
authorizing the same to be taken or acquired; and in
such Proclamation the lands intended to be affected
shall be therein described by reference to such map
so to be deposited as aforesaid: And whereas, in
accordance with the provisions of the said in part
recited Act, the Minister for Public Works has
caused a map of all such lands as have been taken or
purchased for the line of railway from Foxton to
Manawatu, in the Province of Wellington, to be pre-
pared as by the said in part recited Act is required;
and the said map is authenticated by the signature of
the Honorable Edward Richardson, as such Minister
for Public Works: And whereas the said Minister,
on or about the twenty-sixth day of June last,
caused the said map to be deposited in the office of
the Registrar of Deeds at Wellington:

Now, therefore, I, George Augustus Constantine,
Marquis of Normanby, the Governor of the Colony
of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the
power and authority vested in me by the hereinbefore
in part recited Act, do hereby proclaim and declare
that the lands set forth in the said map so deposited
as aforesaid have been taken or acquired for the pur-
poses of the hereinbefore mentioned railway from
Foxton to Manawatu, which said railway is, by "The
Railways Act, 1874," authorized to be constructed
and maintained under the provisions of "The Immi-
gration and Public Works Act, 1870," and the
several Acts amending the same: And in further
pursuance and exercise of the said power and au-
thority, I do hereby proclaim and declare that the
lands intended to be affected by this Proclamation
are described and delineated in the said map so
deposited as aforesaid.

Given under the hand of His Excellency the

stantine, Marquis of Normanby, Earl
of Mulgrave, Viscount Normanby, and
