Governor.

A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by a Proclamation bearing date the twenty-
first day of December, one thousand eight hundred
and eighty-six, certain land in the Provincial District of
Otago was declared to be a mining district within the mean-
ing of "The Mining Act, 1886," under the name of the Otago
Mining District: And whereas by the twenty-second sec-
tion of "The Mining Act, 1886," it is enacted that the
Governor may from time to time by Proclamation constitute
and appoint any portion of the colony to be a mining dis-
trict under the said Act, assign boundaries to such district,
and contract or otherwise alter such boundaries: And
whereas it is desirable and expedient to alter the boundaries
of the said mining district, so as to exclude therefrom the

eight hundred and seventy-seven:
Now, therefore, I, William Francis Drummond Jervois, the

powers and authorities vested in me by "The Mining Act,
1886," do hereby proclaim and declare that, from and after
the first day of February, one thousand eight hundred and
eighty-seven, the boundaries of the said Otago Mining Dis-
trict so constituted as aforesaid shall be those set forth in
the Schedule hereto: And doth hereby further declare that
the area included within such boundaries shall be known
by the local name of the Otago Mining District.

instant, excepting thereout the Borough of Roxburgh, which

All that area in the Provincial District of Otago, in the
Colony of New Zealand, containing by admeasurement 482
