The Oriental arrived on Sunday from Sydney via Twofold Bay with a cargo of stock, after a passage of twenty days from the latter port. Her trip seems to have proved an unfortunate one, having lost the greater portion of her sheep on the passage, among which the catarrh broke out after she was about five days at sea. The English news by way of Sydney is not of so late a date as has been previously received by the Canterbury vessels, being only to the beginning of August, but our extracts serve to connect the intervals of news received by former opportunities, and to supply the connecting links between them. The Robert Syers was to sail very shortly after the Oriental from Sydney, and would be followed by the Louis and Miriam., William Alfred, and Luc" James.
