The Orient steamship Orient arrived on the 7th in=t. at Melbourne from London, with dates viz Brindisi to the 4th of last month ; thus despatches from London reached Adelaide by her in twenty-nine and a-half days and Melbourne in thirty-two days. Such a performance, says the Age, has never before been equalled, and goes far to show what may be done by such a class or steamers.
