that any lands purchased out of the sums authorized
under "The Immigration and Public Works Act,
1870," and any Act amending the same, to be issued
and expended in the purchase of lands in the North
Island of New Zealand, are free from Native claims
and all difficulties in connection therewith, he shall
by Proclamation declare such lands to be waste
lands of the Crown, subject, except as thereafter in
the said Act provided, to be sold and dealt with
according to the provisions of the laws regulating
the sale and disposal of waste lands of the Crown
for the time being in force in the land district in
which such land is situated; and thereupon such land
so proclaimed shall become subject to such provi-
sions:

And whereas the land described in the Schedule

pedient that the said land should be declared to be

scribed in the Schedule hereto are free from Native

sold and dealt with according to the provisions of the
laws regulating the sale and disposal of waste lands
of the Crown in force in the Land District of Wel-
