ARRIVAL OP THE CITY OF MELBOURNE. Some little surprise was experienced yesterday mo-ning when the steamer signalled proved, on roundinz the North Head, to he the well -known and Kmart City of Melbourre under commind of our old friend, Captain J. W. Brown, from . ydney. Hlic has en board the New South Wales portion of the San Francisco mail, and has called 1 ere, en route for San Francisco, for the New Zealand mails, which, however hxvu been dispatched a week ago by the Cyphrenes to Kandavu. Of the City's assage from >y.lney Captain Brown reports as follows:—After having received on board the English rr-.ils and passengers, left her moorings in Johnson's Bay at 11.15 p.m. on the 20th. nnd cleared the Heads at midnitht, parsed the Three Kings at 1.30 p.m. on the 25.h, ronnded the Kortb Cape at 6 p.m. same day, and entered the harbour of Auckland at 11.30 a.m. On the 26ta, experienced a succession of strong easterly wind-, increasiag at times to a gale, with aheavy head s-i and cloudy weather to the Tlireft Kings; thence moderate E. andK.N.K. winds until arrival. Passed a steamship, supposed to be the Colima, at 6 a.m. on thn ZZnd. about 600 miles to the eastward of Sydney Heads. The steamer leaves for San Francisco, via Kandavu, at noon to-day. SUPPOSED LOSS OF THE SHIP DARLING DOWNS. la our last Monday's fasu- we stated that tbe-stern-txrard of a larsre vessel, bearing the name " Darling Downs " bsd betn washed ashore at Ahlpara. The fresh appearanca of the gilding round the name shewed that the piece of wreck coald not have been in tbf. water any lengthened time. We observe by the MuTOpcan Mail and Home Newt, received by the City of Melbourne, that the ship Puling Downs, under command of Captain Wakebam, left London for Sydney on the *30tb September. She met with a mishap by loslDg an anchor and chain in the Downs on tbe 2nd October, but wa3 supplied with fresh one? from Deal, which roadstead she left text day. Her arrival at Sydney has not been reported in the Bydnej papera up to the 20th Instant. It is feared that this One vessel of 1638 tons will be numbered amongst the missing, the only clue to her fate at present being the stem-boarS picked up on the Abipara beach, with tbe name "Darling Downs."

Assistant-Paymaster William Wykeham Perry, secretary to tho late Commodore Goodenough, has b«sn specially promoted to the r»nk of Paymaster in Her Majesty's Heet, tho acting captain of Her Majesty's ship Pearl having reported the warm appreciation expressed by the late Commodore Goodenough of Mr Parry's devotion in that " lie af considerable risk to himself (having nt the time a f.ore in his mouth) sucked the Commodore's wound, in the hope of extracting any puson which might bavo besn left by the arrow." The steamer Edinburgh, belonging to the Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Company, sailed on October G from tho Thames with the shore ends of tho new cable which that company has manufactured for tbe Extension Telegraph Company, to be Uid oetween .Australia and New Zealand. The deep sea portion, consisting of ono thousand miles in length, will he forwarded early in November by th« Hibernia. It would app' ar that all hope of the safety of tbe ship Strathtuore has been abamlo.ied. It is understood that when she left the Thames she carried no less than twenty tons of gunpowder and spirits as vart of her cargo, unci it is feared that tire has broken out on board, and that an explosion wi'h disastrous results has followod She had between forty and fifty passengers on board, and with tho crew she would carry from eighty to ninety souls.
