MALTA.
Malta is now in free pratique with all ports of Italy, France, Greece, and Turkey. The only ports she^is not in free communication with are the Russian ports in the Black Sea, Alexandria, and Bengazy, which is of little censequence. Alexandria and the infected ports are in ten days' quarantine ; but passengers going from Alexandria, via Marseilles, land in free pratique, unless they have some disease during the voyage, the time, of the passage counting. Passengers from Australia intending to pass via Marseilles must be very particular about their passports, for if the Australian steamer arrives at Malta
after office hours, there is not time-to get thorn vised ; and it may subject them to a week's detention, the not having them properly done at the port they embark from. Malta and all the neighbouring countries are very healthy—never more so. The reported case of plague on hoard the Pactolus is now considered to have been a case of apoplexy, and the plague is confined to Bengazy, and it is a good deal checked there.
