Vol. XI. DUNEDIN, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1867. No. 509. [WITH SUPPLEMENT.]

(From the New Zealand Gazette, October 21, No. 54.)

Colonial Secretary’s Office,
Wellington, 18th October, 1867.

THE following Despatch from the Secretary of State for the Colonies, is published for general information, pointing out that Foreigners naturalised in New Zealand, who may be desirous of travelling in Europe, should, before leaving the Colony, provide themselves with some official evidence of their identity and description.

E. W. STAFFORD.

[CIRCULAR, NEW ZEALAND.]

Downing Street, 25th April, 1867.

SIR,—With reference to the Circular Despatch from this Department dated the 5th of June, 1866, relative to the case of Foreigners naturalized in any of Her Majesty’s Colonies who wish to obtain British passports for foreign travel, I have the honor to inform you that different cases have occurred lately in which such naturalised Foreigners have applied in this Country for passports, without being in possession either of a passport from the Governor or of any official document from the Colony to establish their identity and character.

You will readily perceive that this is calculated to embarrass this Department, and also to cause much private inconvenience to the persons concerned if they should find themselves unable to produce any sufficient evidence of their quality.

I have therefore to suggest that, in every Colony containing naturalised Foreigners who are likely to travel in Europe, it would be convenient that notice should from time to time be given in public newspapers, of the necessity for such persons providing themselves before leaving the Colony with some official evidence of their identity and description.

I have, &c.,

BUCKINGHAM AND CHANDOS.

Governor Sir George Grey, K.C.B., &c., &c., &c.

(From the New Zealand Gazette, October 26, No. 55.)

Wellington, 26th October, 1867.

IT is hereby notified that His Excellency the Governor has, in her Majesty’s name, appointed The Honorable JOHN HYDE HARRIS, to be Solicitor-General for the Colony of New Zealand.
