AUCKLAND.
. Auckland,. Sunday. The A.S.P. Company's new steamer Southern Cross has arrived here from England, \ia Melbourne. She left the latter port on the 10th instant. Another attempt at incendiarism was discovered on Saturday night. A quantity of burning rags, saturated with kerosene, were found under the Catholic Institute Hall, in Wellington-street. A soldier's. coat was found among the matei'Jals which were not burning. The timely discovery prevented the success of the attempt. The building is in the centre of a wooden block, and the fire if it had got a firm hold would probably have been an extensive ono.
