Barker, on suspicion of setting fire to • haystack and shed on the premises of Mr. Baker, and doing damage to the extent of 701. at the parish of St. Muy, Stoke New ington. Inspector Gorge Leaden, of the N division, said that for the put two or three month s several fires had taken place in the neighbourhood of Homey and Stoke Newington, and property to • very large value had been destroyed. Prom the manner in which the fires had broken out there was little doubt but that they were all the fiendish work of an incendiary, and although the police bad made every endeavour to discover the perpetrator of so much mischief, thee efforts had not hitherto been crowned with success. It was • singular fact in con nexion with all these fires that the prisoner had been the first on nearly sway 00311110t1 to discover the fire, to fetch the engines, and to receive the reward for being the flint at the fireetatiou to give the alarm, and in consequence be (Inspector Laogdon) had inspected him, and had had him under observation. Lain evening • fire broke out in a shed, under which was • haystack, inlion House, Stamford-hill, and the shed and the stack were completely destroyed. On going to the spot he saw the primmer, and when the fire was extinguished he had the primmer taken to the police-station. He there cautioned him that what be might say would in all probability be used in evidence against him, and he then asked him if he discovered the fire in question, and he prisoner answered in the negative, and he ma d e the name reply when he was first asked ii he had fetched the engines. He (Inspector Langdon) then said to him, " Where were you when the fire broke oat ?" and the prisoner said, " I was at Stoke Newingtoo, in the High-street, when an omnibus inonductor told me there was • fire at Stamford hill. I then went to fetch the engines, but I found that • man of the named Wright was there before me." He asked him several times to be careful u to what he said about the man Wright being at the engine -house before him, but be still persisted in the same statement. He then called Wright in before the prisoner, and then he (the prisoner) admitted that he was the first to call the engines. He was witched, and all that was found on him was one key and one heifer. He had to ask for • remand, as he should on the next occasion be able he thought to bring strong and conclusive evidence against the prisoner. Polioemoestable Cummings, N, mid about 25 minutes past seven the previous evening he wee on duty at Stamford bat, when he saw the prisoner running towards the Stoke Newington fire-station at the top of his speed. He walked on • stop or two, saw that there wan • fire at the top of the hill, and he turned and ran to the engine-house and then found that th e prisoner had been there, had given the alarm, and had then started for the Haringey fie-station. When he first saw the prisoner he was about a quarter of • mile from the fire. Robert Wright, a labourer, said he was on Stamford-la and seeing the policeman coming, and ascertaining that there was • fire, ran to fetch the fire engines, but found that the prisoner had been there before him. He knew the prisoner, and had been drinking with him during the after noon. He saw the prisoner riding on the Horny &s -wine. The finer. prisoner said that h e did no t wish to make any de- Inspector Langton said that there wu a fire on Saturday night, and the prisoner was seen near that. M. Barker said the prisoner wan not charged with that. There wee not enough against the prisoner for him to order him to be detained any longer in enackly, but he would order him to enter into hie own recognisance, in the sum of 201. to come up this day week tame if the polio, had any further charges to prefer against him. The neosseary recognisance@ having been entered into, the prisoner, who stated he had been drill sergeant in the 12th regiment of Foot, left the court.

SOUTHWARK. ILAILWAT CONPANIES AND RAILWAY PANSINGNIB. Mr. Church, the solicitor of the Chatham and Dover Rail way company, attended before Mr. Sells to prefer a com plaint against Mrs. Margaret Elms, an elderly lady, for getting out of one of their carriages, while in motion, at the Blackfriararoed station. The defendant was called and on her not answering, Mr. Church asked for a seeood summons as he wee serious that the came should be thoroughly investigated to prevent others from placing their lives in jeopardy and laying the blame on the company's servants. Mr. Sells asked if the lady was injured ! Mr. Church replied that he understood she was. She fell heavily on the pavement, and was picked up badly hurt. The trail' had not stopped, consequently she bad no business be• get out. The company were anxious to prevent such con duct for the future, therefore they had takes the present proceedings. Mr. Self* observed that he always found the railway tom , panels summand persons who were injured by getting out et the trains , bat be hardly ever k new th em to summon those who were not injured. Mr. Church mid that in every case where a person in fringed the laws of the railway company they proceeded against him, sod in most instances the offeoders apologised to the company and paid the expe n se s . I n the present case the company did not press for any punishment, but merely a comical penalty, as a caution to other persona similarly I offending. Mr. Selte thought it would be better for the company to bring all those persons to the police courts by so doing the public would be made acquainted with the roles and regulations of the railway company. It seemed to him strange that they should proceed against injured persons,and be believed they would not do it, but for actions being brought against them in the first instance to recover Mr. Mr. Church said it was Dot so in this case, therefore se the defendant had thought proper not to attend, he should sim for another summon, as the company was anxious to protect the public.

The stock. markets opened this morning with a heavy appearance, and especial agitation prevailed in the market for bank and finan cial shares, nearly all classes of which experienced a fresh fall. International Financial declined to I to 1 prem., General Credit were I offered at prem., Imperial Mercantile Credit at prem., and Alliance Bank shares at 4 prem. sensible recovery has since taken place, but the present quotations are still, in many cases, below those of yesterday afternoon. The English funds are steady, at yesterday's prices. Home railway stocks in most instances have de-, clined to per cent., and the speculative foreign bonds toa. There is a fair demand for money to-day at 9 per cent. for the best three months' bills. The supply of money in the Stook Exchange is supera bundant, and the rate for short loans on English government securities has declined to 3 to 4 per cent. At Paris to-day, according to Mr. Renter's tele gram, the Three per Cent. Renter opened at 65fr. 10c., showing no change. Consols are now quoted 884 to 1 for money, and 884 to / for the account (Nov. 10). The offi da business report is as follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 881, 4; ditto, for account, 881, 1 ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 861, ; New Three per Cents., 861, 1 ; India Stock, 211 ; ditto, Five per Cent.

The discount market, like the stock market, is stronly acted upon at !present by the doubts felt with regard to the condition of mercantile credit. Oocasiottal failures continue to be announced from day to ( lay, and no confidence can be felt that they are yet at an end, in face of the condition of the mark 'As for cotton and other produce, and of the advi eel from some of the foreign markets. The new a of the commercial disasters in Brazil has ten sled to increase the disposition to caution, as it is no t improbable that bills drawn from this country it . full confidence that they would be met on the c Aber side, may yet have to be provided for here. The amount of geld sent into the Bank yester day was 23,0001. The silver market is extremely flat, and the quo- L • tations for bars and Mexican dollars are lower, at 13e. M. and 4s. llfd. per ounce respectively. There is no demand for the East, any small amounts that are now being transmitted thither being in execution of old contracts. At a further slight re duction in price bar silver will be exported from this market to the Continent The quotations of foreign exchange yesterday after noon were very unsettled, owing to the prevailing distrust. In some cases the rates were little more than nominal. On the whole they may be consi dered about the same as on Friday. The Dutch exchanges ruled rather higher.

The following circular announces the suspension of the respectable, house of Messrs. Budge, Moreira, Brothers, and CO., Brazilian merchants, owing to the stoppage of their correspondents at Rio, Messrs. Moreira, Brothers and Campbell. The liabilities of the firm here represent about, 100,000&, and the estate is expected to show a surplus. 34, Great St. Helena, Oct. 18, 1864. Gentlemen,—We yesterday received by telegraph intima tion of the emporia of our correspondents, Messrs. Moreira, Brothers end Campbell, of Rio de Janeiro, coma qitent on the stoppage of the lank of A. J. A. Scioto and I disc., of that town ; and although we believe *napalm to be sot only solvent bat powered of a considerable ssusrrpplus, we have darned it best, in the interest of all aooeaeued, to sus pend our psymente also. Our books, which are.written up to within a few days, ere in the bands of Messrs. Coleman, Torquand, Youngs and Co., with instructions to prepare sad at ace lay before our creditors a statement of our affairs. °carload that ell Haim will be paid is fell, we request with confidence the indulgence of our creditors in the mean time. —We are, teatime°, yours faithfully, Roan, Mouths BSOTHEBS, AID CO. - - - Messrs. Paul Joske and Co., Australian mer chants, of Mark-lane, have also failed, with liabi lities to the amount of about 40,0001. The liquidation, it is thought, will show a favourable result. The partners have an interest in the Mel bourne house of Joske Brothers, who, however, will not be affected by the present stoppage. The assets consist of stock in London and Marseilles. The books have been placed in the hands of Messrs. Kemp, Ford, and Co., the accountants. We alluded yesterday to the reported stoppage of Messrs. Bingle and Co., of Newcastle, N. 8. W. , the authority for the statement being the following explicit intimation in the Sydney Homing Herald : —"Mews. Dingle and Co. of Newcastle, engaged in the ahioping and coal trade, have suspended pey ment. Their liabilities are estimated at over 30,0001. An offer of 58. in the pound was made and refused." We have to-day, however, seen a letter received by • London firm from Messrs. Bingle and Co., who, referring to the report of their failure circulated in Sydney, desire that, in the event of it reaching home, it may be contra dicted. Messrs. Bingle and Co. say that they have been "severe losers by some heavy failures, but that they are making arrangements for the settle ment of all claims upon them." A very lamentable affair has transpired. Mr. Robert Henry Williams, the London manager of the Mercantile and Exchange Bank (Limited), has died by his own band. Some slight losses, arising from the pressure of the times, which have been incurred by the bank, appear to have preyed upon the mind of Mr. Williams, who was a person of nervous and susceptible temperament. It ought to be stated, however, that, as we are positively assured, there is nothing either in the private pe cuniary accounts of the unfortunate deceased, or in his accounts with the bank, that can reflect any discredit upon his memory. The responsibility of his position is believed to have affected his brain. We have received the following communication on behalf of the board of this bank : TO TAO mama OF THIIIITTIOS. fir,—ltofterlog to the sodden death of our mincer, Mr. William. lon iasketted by the directors to state that &Ike an inveidiption of the accounts and the ..amities of the bank they have every TOMO to belie,. that the Maces of the bank are not thereby in any way ompreaised.— I am, U., NATHAN= Coat, Int, Kampf.

A special meeting of the Foreign Vineyard Asso ciation (Limited) is called for the 27th inst. The directors of the " Grand Internationil Alliance Hotels Company (Limited)" have declared, " out of the profits for the half-year ending 16th September, 1864, a dividend at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum, being calculated at 25e. per share on every paid-up share to bearer, and 12s. per share on each ordinary share." This dividend is now payable. It appears that the next special meeting of the South Eastern of Portugal Railway Company (Limited) is tobe held on the 2nd November, and not on the 23rd, as originally advertised. The City of Manchester, for New York, will call at Queenstown to-morrow, Oct. 20, and messages will be received at any of the Electric and Inter national Telegraph Company's offices in London up to 3.30 p.m., and in the provinces up to 3 p.m. The Persia, for New York, will call at Queenstown on Oct. 23, and messages will be received until the same hours.

Srosowi.—The sponge business has become a prominent department at industry in the Ramos Islands. /t is almost entirely the growth of the last twenty years, and nets annually about 20,000 dollars. The sponge is fished and raked from the sandy bottom of the ocean, at the depth of twenty, forty or sixty feet. It be to a very low order of anima life, organisation hardly being de tected. Melo fi rst taken from the wat er it i s black, and becomes exceedingly offensive from decomposition. lt is so poisonous in this cooditioo that it almost blisters the flesh it happens to touch. The first process is to bury it in the sand, where it remains for two or three week, is which time the gelatinous animal matter is absorbed and de stroyed by the insects that swarm in the sand. After being cleansed it is compressed and packed in bales like cotton. The sponge has been applied to a variety of new purposes. and within the peat few years has quadrupled in value.— West India paper. AN UNEXPVTED VLSITOR. —M. Dump, Minister of Public lostructioo, as ia well known, recently made a tom in the department.,. He arrived one morniug, accompanied by his son, at the College of —, sod, without giving hie name, penetrated incognito as far as the astieet of the dire.. tor. He knocked at the door, and on a voice from within telling him to come in, he entered the room. The director was writing, and without deraoging himself in the least, he said, " Sit down there." The =Mater took a mat and waited until the letter was finished. The direeker then deigned to look up and said.
