(From the New Zealand Gazette, January 23. No. 5.)

G. Grey, Governor.

A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS it is expedient to bring into operation within the Province of Otago the Ordinance for establishing Standard Weights and Measures, and for the prevention of the use of such as are false and deficient (Session VII., No. 10):

Now therefore, I, Sir George Grey, the Governor of New Zealand, in exercise of the power and authority in me vested in that behalf, do hereby proclaim and appoint that from this day the operation of the said Ordinance shall extend to the Province of Otago.

Given under the hand of His Excellency Sir George Grey, Knight Commander of the Most Honourable Order of the Bath, Governor and Commander-in-Chief in and over Her Majesty’s Colony of New Zealand and its Dependencies, and issued under the Seal of the said Colony, at Wellington, this twentieth day of January, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-eight.

God Save the Queen!

G. Grey, Governor.

A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by “The Registration Act, 1858,” it is enacted that it shall be lawful for the Governor, at any time by proclamation in the New Zealand Gazette, to divide the Colony of New Zealand for the purposes of the said Act into such and so many districts as he may think fit, and that every such district shall be called by a distinct name, and shall be a Registrar’s district; and it is provided that the Governor may at any time revoke the whole or any part of such proclamation, and issue a new proclamation dividing the Colony or any part of it into new districts, or increasing the number or altering the boundaries of districts as from time to time he may think requisite:

And whereas by a proclamation duly made and issued bearing date the thirtieth day of November, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-five, the Governor, in pursuance of the said recited power and authority, did constitute two districts for the purposes of the said Act, called the “Dunstan District” and “Wanaka District,”

the boundaries whereof were therein set forth, which said proclamation came into operation and took effect on the first day of February, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-six:

And whereas it is expedient to revoke so much of the said proclamation as relates to the said districts, and to divide anew the territory formerly comprised within such districts:

Now therefore, I, Sir George Grey, the Governor of the said Colony, in pursuance and exercise of the power and authority vested in me by the said recited Act, do hereby revoke the said proclamation so far as relates to the “Dunstan District” and “Wanaka District,” and do proclaim and declare that the territory formerly comprised within such districts shall be and is hereby divided for the purposes of the said Act into two districts, the names and boundaries whereof shall be as follows:

Cromwell District
Comprises all that area bounded towards the North by the Province of Canterbury; towards the East by Oamaru and Blackstone Registration Districts; towards the South by the Dunstan Registration District; and towards the West by the Dunstan, Arrow, and Wakatipu Registration Districts.

Dunstan District
Comprises all that area bounded by a line proceeding from the northern corner of Manuherikia Registration District to the Dunstan Creek, at its junction with the Manuherikia River; thence by the said Dunstan Creek to the Dunstan Mountains; thence by the Dunstan Mountains to the Clutha River; across the Clutha River and over Carnmmuir Hill to the Carrick Ranges; and by the Carrick Ranges to the Kawarau River; thence by the Kawarau River to a point due north of Ben Nevis; thence by the range to Loru Peak; thence by the Nokomai and Switzers and Manuherikia Districts to the starting point.

And I hereby declare that this proclamation shall come into operation and take effect on the second day of March, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-eight.

Given under the hand of His Excellency Sir George Grey, Knight Commander of the Most Honourable Order of the Bath, Governor and Commander-in-Chief in and over Her Majesty’s Colony of New Zealand and its Dependencies, and issued under the Seal of the said Colony, at Wellington, this twentieth day of January, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-eight.

G. Grey, Governor.

ORDER IN COUNCIL.
At the Government House, at Wellington, the eighth day of January, 1868.

Present:
The President and Members of the Executive Council.

WHEREAS by “The Marine Act, 1867,” it is enacted that the Governor may by Order in Council, from time to time, delegate all or any of the powers and authorities vested in him by the said Act, unto any person or persons, for any period, and subject to any regulations, restrictions, or stipulations which may be specified in such Order; and every such delegation may from time to time be altered or revoked, and also that any such delegation may be so made to any person holding office in or under the General Government of New Zealand, or in or under the Provincial Government thereof, by the title of his office, and may be therein expressed to be made to such officer, and his successors in such office, and when so expressed to be made, the powers and authorities thereby delegated shall from time to time, until revocation thereof, be held and exercised only by the person for the time being holding such office, and no other person:

Now therefore, I, Sir George Grey, the Governor, by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council, do hereby...
