It says "Dreyßigstamt" (thirtieth-office). What a thirtieth-office is I can not tell you though. According to Google it might be something like a customs office.

Thanks for the translation/interpretation. It is a gazetteer for Austria-Hungary and apparently included Bohemia and Moravia as well. I offer you the following old travel guide for your amusement/edification in payment.
"A brief account of some travels in divers parts of Europe, viz. Hungaria, Servia, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Thessaly, Austria, Styria, Carinthia, Carniola, and Friuli : Through a great part of Germany, and The Low-Countries. Through Marca Trevisana, and Lombardy on both sides the Po. [...] / by Edward Brown
