A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by the fifty-fourth section of "The Mines Act,
1877," it is, amongst other things, enacted that it shall
be lawful for the Governor to cause Crown lands situate
within a gold field to be selected and set apart for the purpose
of granting agricultural leases thereon and therefor, or for
alienation by occupation licenses on deferred payments under
any law for the time being in force in the land district in which
such mining district is situate:

And whereas the lands described in the Schedule hereto
were, by Proclamation dated the sixteenth day of December, one
thousand eight hundred and seventy-nine, set apart for agri-
cultural leases:

And whereas it is deemed expedient to revoke the said
Proclamation:

Now, therefore, I, William Francis Drummond Jervois, the
Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, do hereby revoke the
said Proclamation of the sixteenth day of December, one thou-
sand eight hundred and seventy-nine, accordingly.

Validating Burgess Roll, Borough of Sydenham.

WM. F. DRUMMOND JERVOIS,
Governor.

ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government House, at Wellington, this second day of
July, 1883.

Present:

HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS it has been made to appear that the valuation
roll of the Borough of Sydenham was not received from
the Property-Tax Commissioner by the Sydenham Borough
Council within the time limited by "The Rating Act, 1882,"
and the burgess roll of the said borough could not therefore
be made within the times prescribed by "The Municipal Cor-
porations Act, 1876": And whereas the said valuation roll has
since been forwarded by the said Commissioner, and the said
burgess roll has since been made; and it is expedient that such
burgess roll should be validated:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony
of New Zealand, by and with the advice and consent of the
Executive Council of the said colony, and in exercise of the
powers vested in him by "The Municipal Corporations Act,
1876," doth hereby declare that the burgess roll of the said
Borough of Sydenham so made as aforesaid, for the year com-
mencing on the first day of June, one thousand eight hundred
and eighty-three, shall be as valid to all intents and purposes
as if the same had been regularly made.

FORSTER GORING,
Clerk of the Executive Council.
