NELSON.
Nelson and Marlborough Steam Coastal Navigation Company, — The required number of shares to enable this Company to commence operations having been taken, the shares have been allotted, and a call made of the first instalment of £2 10a a share. It is intended, we believe, if a suitable vessel fv>r our coasting trade can be procured in the Australian colonies, to purchase a vessel there at once, and so far anticipate the arrival of the steamer from England, ordered by the Trustees of the Trust Funds. Land Sale. — A sale of pastoral land took place at the Land Office, on Wednesday last, when Mr Robinson, of Cheviot Hills, completed the purchase of his run, which, in round figures, may he stated as over 100,000 acres. This sale netted about £3,000, and the whole of the lots were knocked dawn to the upset prices. g— — — mmmm m — — .
