HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS by the one hundred and sixty-seventh sec-
tion of “The Land Act, 1885,” 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 His Excellency the Governor of the Colony
of New Zealand has, by Proclamation issued under the pro-
visions of section one hundred and sixty-six of the said Act
and the fourteenth section of “The Land Acts Amendment
Act, 1888,” set apart the lands enumerated in the Schedule
hereto as a village settlement:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony
of New Zealand, 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 thereof, doth, by this present order, fix the following
as the terms and conditions upon which the village settle-
ment enumerated in the Schedule hereto shall be disposed
of, and the mode of payment for the same, that is to say,--

1. The lands enumerated in the Schedules hereto shall be
   open as village and small-farm allotments, for sale or selec-
   tion either for cash, or on deferred payments, or on perpetual
   lease.

2. The day upon which the lands shall be open for sale
   or selection shall be Wednesday, the sixteenth day of
   July, one thousand eight hundred and ninety.

3. The purchaser for cash of any of the lands enumerated
   in the Schedules hereto must deposit with the Receiver of
   Land Revenue for the land district one-fifth of the purchase-
   money at the time of application, and shall pay the whole
   remainder of the purchase-money within thirty days of the
   granting of his application; and if not paid within thirty
   days his deposit shall be forfeited, and the lands shall be
   again open for sale or occupation forthwith; and upon full
   payment of the purchase-money he will be entitled to a
   Crown grant, to be issued in the usual way.

4. If any of the lands enumerated in the Schedules hereto
   are selected upon deferred payments, the selector shall be
   subject to the provisions relating to Part III. of “The Land
   Act, 1885.”

5. If any of the lands enumerated in the Schedules hereto
   are selected under the perpetual-leasing system, the se-

   Land Act, 1885.”

6. No person shall be allowed to apply for or select more
   than one allotment.

7. The prices stated in the Schedules hereto shall be the
   prices at which the lands shall be open for sale for cash,
   or for selection on deferred payments, or on perpetual lease.

8. If there shall be more than one application on the
   same day for any allotment in the First Schedule the right to
   occupy the same shall be determined by auction amongst
   the applicants; and, if there should be more than one appli-
   cant for any allotment in the Second Schedule, the right to
   occupy the same shall be decided by lot amongst the appli-
   cants.

9. Each applicant for a deferred-payment section will be
   required to make the declaration prescribed by section one
   hundred and thirteen of “The Land Act, 1885,” and shall at
   the time of application deposit with the Receiver of Land
   Revenue for the land district one-tenth of the price of the
   allotment (such payment shall be deemed to be a discharge
   of the license-fee for the six months due on the next first
   day of January or July following the date of the license,
   as the case may be); and, upon fulfilment of the terms and
   conditions prescribed by the said Act relating to land on
   deferred payments, will be entitled to the Crown grant, to
   be issued in the usual way.

10. Each applicant for any of the allotments on perpetual
    leasing will be required to deposit with the Receiver of
    Land Revenue for the land district a sum equal to one
    half-year's rent of the allotment included in the applica-
    tion, and such payment shall be in discharge of the half-
    year's rent due on the first day of January or July which
    shall first ensue after the commencement of the term,
    together with the sum of thirty shillings for the lease and
    registration thereof.

11. Each applicant for a section for cash will be required
    to make a statutory declaration that he is applying for the
    land solely for his own use and benefit, and not for the use
    and benefit of any other person or persons whomsoever.
