ARRIVAL OF THE MALTA. QUEENSTOWN, Ocr. 2.  The Cunard extra steamship Malta, from New York, arrived here at 6.15 a.m. to-day with 88 passengers. She landed 22 passengers and despatches and proceeded for Liverpool at 6.30 a.m. All well.  The United States screw steam frigate Franklin Flag-Admiral Farragut, now lying in the Thames, was on Monday inspected by Commodore lidmonetone, C. 8., aide. de-camp to the Queen, who went down from Woolwich, accompanied by his Flag-Commander Jackson, and paid a eomrlimantary visit to the pliant admiral by previous ex rangement. The frigate is accompanied by the steam tender Trobe. Admiral Farragut is expected to visit Woolwich and inspect the dockyard, and probably the departments of the arsenal, Ina few days.  Some of the weekly Roman catholic prints in Ireland appe►r to be in a state of ecstasy consequent on the defeat of Garibaldi's scheme. No language is too low to be applied to him. He is an " infamous character, who fears neither heaven nor hell," a " vile beast," and a " desperado," a "scoundrel, and the head of a gang of plunderers."  It is expected that the submarine telegraph from Cape Schanck, Victoria, to Tamar Heads, Tasmania, will be laid by January next ; it is estimated the outlay will be 100,000/.  The Court of Accounts in the kingdom of Italy Ins discovered that the frauds oommitted by the government treasurers in the different provinces in 1866 amounted to 1,318,706 fr.  It appears that in Convocation the Archbishop of Canterbury last year declared himself in the strongest manner against advocating the appointment of a new Bishop of Natal. His words were—" I could never vote for a resolution th►t would be conadved into a recommendation to the church in South Africa to consecrate • bishop. Ido not view the resolution in that sense. lam glad that the resolution has passed, but I should not have voted for it bad I interpreted it to be a recommendation to elect another bishop." A correspondent of the Times asks, " If anyone is presented to the Archbishop of Canterbury for consecration, con the archbishop per. form such an act without a license from the crown? If any one is presented to the Bishop of Capetown for consecration, is ' the church of South Africa' so separated from the mother church that such consecrationcan be performed without the royal license r  The medical schools in connexion with the principal hospitals of the metropolis were opened yesterday with addresses, in each case from one of the professors. The lecturer at Sc. Bartholomew's was Dr. Odling, F.R.S. ; at Charing-cross. Mr. B. Canton ; at Guy's, Mr. Arthur E. Durham ; at St. George's, Mr. Holmes ; at King's Col. lege, Dr. Miller ; at London, Dr. Lethsby ; at Middlesex, Dr. Cobbold, F.R.S. ; at St. Mary's, Dr. Broadbent ;at St. Thomas's, Mr. Scilly ; at University, Professor Graily Hewitt ; and at Westminster, Mr. W. F. Trevan. ANOTHER TRAGEDY IN THE FOREST op FONunrasur.Au.—A. fresh incident has revived the emotion caused at Fontainebleau by the murder of Madame Mertens. Another dead body was discovered in the forest a few days back. It was lying in a ravine neer the Rooker de Bonvigny, and almost entirely cionssused by vermin ; but the deceased has been recognised by his clothes to have been an inhabitant of the town who disa some weeks sines. His puree and some jewellery tiirwove were gone when the body was found; but whether a murder has been omnalitted or not is as yet uncertain.
