NEW SOUTH WALES.  We take the following from the Sydney 3forniug Herald of the 13th of January  " There have been but few incidents of a noteworthy character since our summary for the Malta was made up.  " The Assembly has assented to the principle of subsidising the proposed submarine telegraph from Australia to Java, but they are not agreed as to the terms of the subsidy, or as to the course which it would be best for the line to take.  " There has been another Polynesian massacre. This time Rubiana, one of the Solomon group, ha° been made the scene ofcann Coal atrocity. The schooner Pearl, of Anitamm (formerly a well-known yacht in Sydney harbour), has been captured and burnt at that island, and her crew, cight in number, besides the captain, have been killed and eaten. An attempt was made to capture the Clarence Packet, by which this news was brought. It Well understood, also, that a similar attempt was to be made upon the cutter Oberon. Two men left on shore from that vessel had been murdered, and the plan was -to decoy the master of the Oberon on shore, under the pretence that these murdered wen wished to see him. Some effort ought surely to be made to warn the crew of this vessel, if there be yet time, and to administer a wholesome castiga' tion to the bloodthirsty tribe of Rubiana. of " The Government surveyor:: in the Valley  r eviously est they ur.
