A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by the fifty-fourth section of "The
Mines Act, 1877," it is, amongst other things,
enacted that it shall be lawful for the Governor to
cause Crown lands situate within a gold field to be
selected and set apart for the purpose of granting
agricultural leases thereon and therefor; or for
alienation by occupation licenses on deferred pay-
ments under any law for the time being in force in
the land district in which such mining district is
situate:

And whereas the lands described in the First
Schedule hereto are Crown lands subject to be dealt
with under the provisions of the said Act, and it is
deemed expedient to set the same apart for the pur-
pose of granting agricultural leases thereon and
therefor: And whereas the lands described in the

to be dealt with under the said Act, for alienation
by occupation licenses on deferred payments as afore-

day and place on which the said land shall be open
for application in allotments, as surveyed and marked
on the survey map in the office of the Chief Surveyor,

And I do hereby further select and set apart, for
the purpose of alienation by occupation licenses on
deferred payments, the lands described in the Second
