Altering the Boundaries of a Mining District.

(L.S.) NORMANBY, Governor.
A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by a Proclamation under the hand of
the Superintendent of Southland bearing date
the sixteenth day of May, one thousand eight hun-
dred and sixty-seven, certain land within the Province
of Southland was declared to be a gold field within
the meaning of "The Gold Fields Act, 1866," and is
called "The Campbelltown Gold Field:

And whereas by the sixth section of "The Mines
Act, 1877," it is enacted that it shall be lawful for
the Governor from time to time, by Proclamation, to
constitute and appoint any portion of the colony to
be a mining district under that Act, to assign
boundaries to such district, to enlarge, contract, or
otherwise alter such boundaries, and to declare by
what local name every such district shall be desig-
nated; and that until the Governor shall otherwise
order, every gold field duly proclaimed or constituted
at the time of the commencement of the now recited
Act shall be deemed a mining district under the said
Act: And whereas it is desirable and expedient to
contract the boundaries of the said gold field, so as to
exclude therefrom the land described in the First
Schedule hereto:

Marquis of Normanby, the Governor of the Colony
of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the
powers and authorities vested in me by "The Mines

daries shall exclude the land described in the First
Schedule hereto, and that the boundaries of the said
mining district shall henceforth be those specified in
the Second Schedule.
