GKAHAMSTOWN, this day.
The " Advertiser " this morning regrets' to learn that, in consequence of the heavy claims for compensation sent in to the Gov-'
eminent, aud the many demands upon the; almost exhausted Public Works exchequer, the second and third' contracts' for the, Thames-Waikato railway are not likely to be called for at peesent. aud blames certain persons for persuading tne Government to commence the line at the Goods' wharf, instead of the Mary-street, which would have enabled the line to be made as far as Furiri by this time.
