He had taken the rug in mistake for his own,which he thought he had placed na the spat. The witness Baskin said that no rug belonging to the 'Niigata' was left in the shop. Abrams said no doubt the prisoner was in error. p ro bably he had left it somewhere else. Such accidents wo n of frequent occurrence. The prisoner was remanded. --- • WORSHIP-STREET. BTLALING GAA. John Asher, a young man of repeatable sppearance, orr ying on business as a baker in Shepperton-oot*m New North-road, was :02ht up on a warrant granted C. Allison, Esq., eh vrith stea li ng 6,700 feet of pa, p r operty of the " Independent Gas-light and Coke I ; 3oxxia• Kr. Metcalfe, the barrister, instructed by Mr. Vann, at tended to prosecute, and the prisoner was defended by an attorney, whose name did not transpire. The principal witness is a man named Thomas who stated that he entered the prisoner's service e i o etly after Christmas last and left previous to April; that in the interim of such periods he had frequently seen the sus metre, which was situated beneath the shop floor, sad that at times • piece of gutta peroha tubing was affixed from the service and other pipes, and that such tubing conveyed the gas direct to the burners. He had known this to be the case for several days together, and had called attention to it, but prisoner's only reply was that the whole thing required repair, and that the com pany must send a man to attend to it. At other times Ili tubing was away, and prisoner used to send him for white lead, which) was applied to some portion of the jd t ges-examined—Witness gave information of the mat ter in consequence of having been turned out of doors by his master in the middle of the night because the spong e . for the bread was not ready, as it ought to have been. His raster used to send him to turn on the gas. Mr. George Armitage, one of the company's inspectors, deposed to having seen the prisoner et his shop on the 16th of April last, when he admitted being, respon sible for the gas. Witness expressed an intention to examine the metre, and turned to the spo t where it had been placed, but prisoner said, "It is not there — it is here behind the counter." Witness went to that spot, but could not find it, and on rising saw the pri mer getting up from the very spot where he bad asserted the meter was not ; an examination proved that it had been tampered with, and he told prisoner so, adding, " The gas will be cut off, and you must come to the office and ex plain." The following day the gas was cut off, but prisoner never went to the office, and a warrant was obtained for his apprehension. Ity Mr. Metcalf—l told him that information had been given of his having dealt unfairly with the gas, and he said that the meter was out of repair, and that ho had em ployed a man whom he did not know to repair it. I found the joints of the service and other pipes loose. The effect of the tubing being attached as described would prevent the quantity of gas so burned being registered in the meter. In the quarter ending Lady-day, 1865, there was a register of 18,s 00 cubic feet of gas burned, in the same quarter of 1866 there was a less quantity, by 6,700 feet, at varying prices. Watts, a constable of the N Division, proved having ap prehended prisoner at Liverpool on a warrant, which, on reading he asked " Can't pm put it o ff until to-morrow, as I want to square the matter r Prisoner was fully committed for trial, but admitted to bail on two sureties of 501. each. THAMES. EITRAORDINART CHARGE OF ARSON. Frederick Bicknell, aged 28 years, was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with unlawfully and maliciously setting fire to his shop and premises ; and secondly, with the same o ff ence with intent to defraud the London and Liverpool and Globe Insurance-office. Mr. Charles Young conducted the prosecution ; Mr. Stoddart defended the prisoner. This is • moat extraordinary case. The prisoner is a foreman cooper in the St. Katharine Dock, where he hes been employed 15 years, having entered the service of the company as an apprentice. He has also for some time kept a shop for the sale of crinolines, stays, busts, and other articles in Queen's-terrace, Commercial' road, near to the Stepney railway-station. He effected an insurance for 4110/. with the London and Liverpool and Globe Insurance-office on the 23rd of October, and it is exactly a month since he received the policy. A fire broke oat on the premises while all the inmates were from home on Wednesday night, and there can be no doubt the place was wilfully set on fire. The stock on the premises was not worth M. Mr. James Griffin, inspector of the K division of Metro politan police, said—On Wednesday night at 12 o'clock Iwu called to a fire at No. 3, Queen's-terrace, Coin ntercial-roml. I found a police-constable keeping the door. I entered the house with the firemen, and saw taken from the shop window-board and floor those things I now produce, all saturated with naphtha or paraffin. The inspector then spread before him three crinoline petticoats, a waistband, some glazed calico, and two hoope—all saturated as he had described. He went on to state that a fire was at that time burning under the end of the counter, the farthest from street-door. There were a lot of old rags, old um brellas, and papers under the counter, which was formed of deal wood, with light mahogany top. The counter was on fire, and it was trampled out by the firemen, and also kicked out. There was also a fire burning in the ceiling, where the gas pendant was fixed, and two bedsteads, bedding, and mattress, stuffed with shavings, were on fire on the first-floor front room. He went into the room, in which was a chandelier. The fire was below it. He saw the firemen bring up a bottle containing a pint cf paraffin oil. He also saw a policy of insurance for 460/. On his third visit to the house he could not find the policy, and believed the pri soner or his wife had removed it. On a second visit to the house he discovered that one of the boards of the floor in the back bedroom had been raised. It was saturated with naphtha. Dust, shavings, and rubbish under the board had also been saturated with the same inflammable sub stance. There was a large patch of oil or grease on the ceiling underneath. The inspector then produced some of the ceiling, and by order of the magistrate ignited it. The piaster burnt well, and in every position in which he placed it. In answer to questions by Mr. Partridge, the inspec tor said if the fire had not Veen discovered at an early period and quickly subdued the house would have been Consumed. He apprehended the prisoner in the St. Katharine Dock, and asked him if he intended to ask the insurance office for compensation, and he replied, " Of course I must." Other evidence was Riven, the case wan proceeding when our report left. Mr. Charles Young said he should ask for a remand to complete the case against the prisoner. WEATHER REPORT.-(THIS DAY.

NEW YORK, Dio. 6. The National Steam Navigation Company's steamer Scotland, which went ashore off Sandy Hook, has broken in two, and will prove a total Sow Wreckers have been contracted with for the sal vage at the rate of 25 per cent. COMMERCIAL AND MARKET& MARK-LINE.—(THIS DAY.) The show of English wheat in today's market, coast wise and by land carriage, was limited. As the attendance of millers was limited, the trade ruled extremely heavy, at quite Monday's decline in the quotatiosa. We were fairly supplied with foreign wheat. Good and fine qualities realised previous rates; but all other kinds were lower to sell. Floating cargoes of grain commanded very little atten tion. The sale for both English and foreign barley was in a sh. 'doggish state, at barely stationary prices. Malt was held firmly on former terms, but the inquiry for it was by no means active. et The oat trade was firm, and good sound oorn was quite 8$ as dear as on Monday. AO 10 Beans commanded scarcely any alteration. The supply of English was very limited—of foreign, good. ge, We have no change to notice in the value of peas. Sales, me however, progressed slowly. 100 The flour trade was very quiet. Rumba flour was offer- S a t on lower terms. es. Linseed and maize were steady in price. Other articles - were very dull.

STEAM LOCOMOTIVES ON ROADS.—The Emperor Napoleon a few days since, was present at an experiment made near the Palace of Compiegne with a steam locomotive for ordinary roads by M. Lots, of Nantes :—" When this intention became known, the inhabitants of the town and country around flocked to the palace, so that at last an immense crowd had collected. At about 1 o'clock the locomotive appeared, and steadily took up its place at the gate of the perk, near the avenues. Two omnibuses of the Union des Postes were then attached to it, together with a number of large chars a-banc. belongir gto the court. Shortly after, the Empe ror, with the Princess de Dletternich and a large number of the guests, arrived to witness the experiment. His Ma jesty entered one of the omnibuses, and several of the guests did the same. The locomotive then took the way by the avenues, and went in the direction of Pierrefonda. It reached the Ilona-Royal, and afterwards the placewhere the roads meet in the forest. But it must be declared the trial did not answer expectation. The machine cer tainly went np the rising ground to the Carrefour de la Fern, but the changes made in the rate of speed led to stoppages which proved that the machine has not yet reached that perfection which its inventor, who is an intelligent man, will very probably one day arrive at. Everyone was witness of the extreme kindness of the Emperor in taking part in the proceedings. At the Carrefour his Majesty and the guests left the omnibuses, entered carriages, and made an excursion to Pierrefonds. I The looomotive also took the road to that place, went five I or six kilometres, and returned by the Faubourg Saint- Inseam. SHARE L rM DAY.) Oirs o'ol.oox.

At the weekly court, yesterday, of the directors of the Bank of England, Mr. George Forbes was elected chief cashier in the place of the late Mr. William Miller, and Mr. Frank May deputy cashier in the place of Mr. Forbes. The weekly return of the Bank of France shows the following changes : Coin and bullion lncrease £560,000 Bills discounted Government deposits lncrease 20,000 Notes in Circulation Private deposits Advances This return shows a further large increase in the coin and bullion, accompanied by a marked falling off in the demand for discounts.

As regards bullion, the import and export transactions of the week were not large, but the present return shows an increase of 61,4741. 'HIS DAY.) Oxs oVwca. The English funds are dull to-day, but the present prices are not worse than those last cur rent yesterday. Home railway stocks and foreign securities are likewise rather fiat, with few transac tions. Mexican Bonds, and Italian of 1861, have given way. In the miscellaneous market, London Financial shares remain heavy, at the fall of yester day, while National Discount are firm. Banking descriptions have been very little dealt in, and quotations generally show no variation. The demand for money is moderate, but is expected to increase later in the day, a large amount of Indian and China paper falling due to-morrow. The rate for choice bills is 3i to 4 per cent. The charge for short loans on English government securities is 3 per cent . Consols are now quoted 881 to /, ex div., for money, and 884 to 1, ex div., for the account (January 10).

Ramsey, Elder, and Co., of Barbadoes ; J. and A. Elder, of Antigua; and Elder, Stevens, and Co., of Bush-lane, have been returned. The liabilties are presumed to be large, but it is stated that there will be a surplus, the inconvenience being only of a temporary nature. Mr. White, of King street, is the accountant engaged on behalf of the creditors in each instance. The suspension is announced of Messrs. George Shand and Co., of Stirling, in the petroleum trade, with liabilities estimated at about 100,0001. The assets are stated to amount to 150,0001., but it was considerod best to suspend payment to avoid sacrificing the interests of the creditors, looking at the state of the market, and the season of the year. We are requested by Mr. Boore to state that he has ceased to be the manager of the London office of the Consolidated Bank.
