(L.S.) HERCULES ROBINSON, Governor.

A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by the one hundred and twenty-
second section of "The Public Works Act,
1876," it is enacted that every railway shall be made
only under the authority of a special Act, which
shall state as nearly as may be the line of the railway
and the two termini thereof; and, by the one hundred
and twenty-fourth section of the same Act, that when
any railway is to be constructed under the provisions of
any special Act the Governor shall issue a Proclama-
tion defining the middle line of the railway or any
part thereof, and may from time to time, by a Pro-
clamation revoking or amending such former Pro-
clamation, alter such line in any manner or to any
extent which may be found necessary for the con-
struction of such railway within the provisions of the
said special Act; and, by the one hundred and
twenty-fifth section of the same Act, that the
Minister shall cause to be made and deposited in the
office of the Registrar of the Supreme Court such
maps and plans as may be necessary to explain the
said line and the land through which the same passes,
and such maps and plans shall be referred to in any
such Proclamation: And whereas the railway from
Clutha to Catlin's River is one of the railways
specified in "The Immigration and Public Works
Appropriation Act, 1878," and which Act is therein
declared to be a special Act for the said railway
within the meaning of "The Public Works Act,
1876:" And whereas it has been determined to
construct and maintain a portion of such railway,
namely, from a point within Section fourteen, Block
thirty-three, Clutha Survey District, to a point in
Section two, Block five, Molyneux Survey District,
all within the Provincial District of Otago:

Now, therefore, I, Sir Hercules George Robert
Robinson, the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand,
in exercise and in pursuance of the powers and autho-
rities conferred on me by "The Public Works Act,
1876," and in exercise of every other power and
authority enabling me in that behalf, do hereby pro-
claim and declare that the middle line of the said
portion of such railway shall be that defined and set
forth in the Schedule hereto. The said middle line
and the land through which the same passes are set
forth in the map and plan marked P.W.D. 7005, and
authenticated for the purposes of this Proclamation
by the signature of the Honorable James Macandrew,
Minister for Public Works, and which said map and
plan is deposited in the office of the Registrar of the
Supreme Court at Dunedin, in the Provincial District
of Otago..
