(L.S.) HERCULES ROBINSON, Governor.

A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by the fourth section of "The Con-
fiscated Lands Act, 1867," it is, among other
things, enacted that it shall be lawful for the
Governor from time to time, as he shall think fit, by
Proclamation in the New Zealand Gazette, to reserve
out of lands taken under "The New Zealand Settle-
ments Act, 1863," as amended by "The New Zealand
Settlements Act, 1864," and "The New Zealand
Settlements Amendment and Continuance Act
1865," and "The New Zealand Settlements Act
Amendment Act, 1866," such lands as to him shall
seem fit, and thereout to grant or set apart such
portion or portions as he think fit, as therein speci-
fied: And whereas the pieces of land described in
Schedule B hereto have been taken under the said
last-mentioned Acts: And whereas by section six
of "The Volunteers and Others Lands Act, 1877," it
is enacted that the provisions of "The Confiscated
Lands Act, 1867," shall continue in operation, and
shall be deemed to have been always in operation, in
respect of any reserves promised to Natives or set
apart for Natives under the said Act, at any time
previous to the coming into operation of "The
Waste Lands Administration Act, 1876," but which,
for want of surveys or other unavoidable causes,
could not be proclaimed previous to the time last
mentioned: And whereas prior to the thirty-first
day of October, one thousand eight hundred and
seventy-six, being the day on which "The Waste
Lands Administration Act, 1876," came into opera-
tion, promises were made to the tribes named in the
Schedule hereto marked A, who had been in rebellion,
but had subsequently submitted to the Queen's
authority, to reserve, for the purposes of the said
fourth section of "The Confiscated Lands Act, 1867,"
the pieces of land described in the Schedule B here-
to, but such pieces of land, for want of proper sur-
veys and other unavoidable causes, could not be

ministration Act, 1876," coming into operation:

Now, therefore, I, Sir Hercules George Robert
Robinson, the Governor of the Colony of New
Zealand, by virtue of the powers and authorities
vested in me by the fourth section of "The Confis-
cated Lands Act, 1867," by "The Waste Lands
Administration Act, 1876," and "The Volunteers and
Others Lands Act, 1877," and of all other powers and
authorities me thereunto enabling, and in fulfil-
ment of the said promises, do hereby proclaim and
declare that the pieces of land mentioned and de-
scribed in the Schedule B hereto are hereby reserved
for the purposes of the fourth section of "The Con-
fiscated Lands Act, 1867."
