And We do further authorize and empower Our said Governor- General, as he shall see occasion. in Our name and on Our behalf. t 81 & 382 Vict. c. 72. * It is rather curious that the Instructions to the Federations and the Union should contain a clause omitted in 1892 from the Australian Instructions to please Mr. Higinbotham ; see above, p. 168; below, p. 1591, n. 1. 1279-3 ah
