Present:

HIS EXCELLENCY THE ADMINISTRATOR OF THE
GOVERNMENT IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS by the twenty-first section of "The
Land Act 1877 Amendment Act, 1879," it is
enacted that the Governor in Council may fix the
terms and conditions upon which the lands comprised
in any village settlement shall be disposed of, and
the mode of payment for the same: And whereas
the Governor has, by Proclamation in the New Zea-
land Gazette, bearing date this twelfth day of Novem-
ber, set apart the lands enumerated in the Schedule
hereto for sale as village settlements:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Administrator
of the Government, in pursuance and exercise of the
powers and authorities conferred upon him by the
hereinbefore in part recited Act, and by and with the
advice of the Executive Council of the Colony of
New Zealand, doth hereby fix the following terms
and conditions upon which the said village settle-
ments shall be disposed of, and the mode of payment
for the same, that is to say,-

  1. The lands enumerated in Schedule I. hereto
    shall be open for application for cash at the Land
    Offices at Carlyle and Hawera, on Monday, the 20th
    day of December, 1880, at the prices stated therein.
  2. The lands enumerated in Schedule II. hereto
    shall be open for application on deferred payments
    at the prices stated therein, at the Land Offices at
    Carlyle and Hawera, on Monday, the 20th day of
    December aforesaid, subject to the provisions of
    Part III. of "The Land Act, 1877," relating to rural
    land, in cases where the allotments exceed an area
    of twenty acres, and to the provisions of the said
    Part III. relating to suburban land, in cases where
    the area is twenty acres or under.
  3. No person shall be allowed to acquire more
    than one section upon either immediate or deferred
    payments.
  4. If there should be more than one application
    for any allotment in Schedule I. offered for cash, the
    right to purchase the same shall be determined by
    auction amongst the applicants only, and if there
    should be more than one application for any allot-
    ment in Schedule II. offered for deferred payments,
    the right to occupy the same shall be determined by

    tion prescribed by section 62 of "The Land Act,

    with the Receiver of Land Revenue for the West
    Coast Land District, one-fifth of the price, if the area
    of the allotment is twenty acres or under, and one-
    tenth of the price if the area is greater than twenty
    acres. Such payment shall be deemed to be a dis-
