PICTON AND BLENHEIM RAILWAY.
We note the following paragraph in the Colonist of Friday last, and, if true, it will he good news for this Province, the Pieton and BlenheimJ Railway being one of those lines to be constructed on a guarantee:— VWe loam that the ‘comprehensive plans’ of -the General Government have been received with favor in London ; and that Dr Featherston has written, saying that the Colony can get all the money that is required without difficulty. We believe, too, that Sir Charles Fox, the eminent railway contractor, has written to the Colonial Government, offering to construct all the railways that are required, on a guarantee of six per cent.
