with, he shall, by Proclamation, declare such lands

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 there-
upon such land so proclaimed shall become subject to
such provisions:

And whereas the land described in the Schedule
hereto has been purchased out of the sums autho-

be 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
