A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by Proclamation under the hand of
Sir James Fergusson, Governor of the Colony
of New Zealand, and Seal of the said Colony, dated
the sixteenth day of November, one thousand eight
hundred and seventy-four, and published in the
New Zealand Gazette of the nineteenth day of
November, one thousand, eight hundred and seventy-
four, No. 61, made under the authority of "The Public
Works Act Amendment Act, 1871," certain lands in
the Provincial District of Hawke's Bay, described in
the four Schedules to the said Proclamation, were
set aside for purposes of immigration, and to be
dealt with under the said Act: And whereas by
section four of "The Volunteers and Others Lands
Act, 1877," it is, amongst other things, enacted that,
notwithstanding the repeal or expiry of any enactment
under which any immigration settlement, special
settlement, or other settlement of any exceptional
character shall have been established, it shall be
lawful for the Governor from time to time to with-
draw from any such settlement any lands that have
remained unoccupied therein; and such surplus lands
shall be disposed of in accordance with the provisions
of the laws for the time being in force regulating the
disposal of Crown lands: And whereas the lands
described in the Schedule to this Proclamation have
remained unoccupied since the making of the afore-
said Proclamation, and it is expedient to withdraw
such lands from such settlement:

Now, therefore, I, George Augustus Constantine,
Marquis of Normanby, Governor of the Colony of
New Zealand, in exercise of the powers and autho-
rities vested in me by the said "Volunteers and
Others Lands Act, 1877," and of every other power
and authority enabling me in that behalf, do hereby
withdraw from the purposes of settlement set forth
in the said Proclamation the lands described in the
Schedule hereto; and I do hereby revoke the said
Proclamation so far only as relates to any lands
hereby withdrawn; and I do proclaim and declare
that the lands hereby withdrawn shall be disposed of
in accordance with the provisions of the laws for the
time being in force regulating the disposal of Crown
lands.
