NABIiET AND COMMERCIAL INTELL/GENCE. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. In the ab sence o f f ur th er news o f a di s t ur bi n g character from the Continent the markets of Europe have regained their more natural composure. The recovery, though slow, appears likely to be complete. Renter; which fell li, are now only lower than t hey were on Tuesday. The English funds have quite regained the previous quotations, and almost the same result is observable in foreign stocks ; as regards busi lless there is as yet no substantial improvement. The autumn vacation is not yet over, though it is probable that, the weather having broken, many persons will hasten back to town. This morning the markets arc exceedingly inactive, and a shade lower. This heavi 'less extends to all classes of securities, including bank shares. The rate for first-class commercial paper does not exceed 1 per cent. Consols are without change, at 94 to 941- for money a n nd account.

EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE AGAINST A GENTLE MAN.-Mr. Francis John Rogers Sheridan, lately holding a commission in the army, appeared in dis charge of his recognizances charged with obtaining money by false pretences. Mr. Sergeant Ballantine and Mr. Montagu Wil liams appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. G. Lewis, jun., defended. It appeared that iu the early part of the month of January in the present year an application was was made to Williamson, the prosecutor, a person in the habit of advancing money upon mortgage, &c., for a loan of £250, to be advanced to the de fendant upon two bills of £l5O and £lOO respec tively, drawn upon him by Mr. Rogers, a soli citor. Mr. Williamson required further security, and was informed that Mr. Sheridan would at the death of his father become entitled to the estate of Frampton Court, Dorset, the property of his father, Mr. R. B. Sheridan, M.P. for Dorchester. The de fendant was required to make a statutory declara tion. He accordingly declared before Mr. Smith, a solicitor and a commissioner for administering oaths is London, residing at Harcourt-buildings, Temple, that he was heir to the estate of Frampton Court, and that his elder brother (Mr..R. B. Sheri dan, jun.) had no interest in that property; and it was now contended that the defendant was not heir, his brother being at that time alive, and also that it was possible that the brother, who was a married man, might have issue, in which case the defendant would not be the heir. In the course of the examination it came out that interest at the rate of 60 per cent. was charged on the loan, and that of the £l5O a portion was to be in money, and a portion to the amount of £5O to be in wine, which last was never supplied. It appeared also that the money was paid over to the solicitor, Rogers, and it did not appear that more than £B3 ever reached the defendant. It was admitted that after the issue of the warrant an attempt was made to compromise the case. For the defendant it was contended that the declara tion was substantially and virtually true, as it be came literally true in a month by the death of his elder brother. his father, Mr. R. B. Sheridan, M.P., stated that four years ago he informed the defendant that he should be his heir conditionally on his good conduct, and he had since led the defendant to believe that he adhered to that intention. His elder son, defendant's brother, had no interest in the property at the time the declaration was made, as he had sold his life interest, which the father had bought, nor could Mr. R. B. Sheridan, jun., have been supposed to have issue, as he had been for several years separated from his wife, she living in London, and he in Italy. It appeared also that before the appli cation for the summons or warrant at the court a similar application had been made at Guildhall and refused. A great deal of vituperation, and wholly irrele vant matter, was imported into the case. Mr. Lewis, jun., contended that the declaration was morally true, and certainly not intentionally false, and stigmatised the prosecution as an attempt to extort money from the defendant's family, who indignantly refused to consent to any attempt to compromise. Mr. Flowers thought there was a prima facie case to go before a jury, but he certainly should not, after what he had heard from Mr. Le Nis, and which made a great impression on him, hold Mr. Sheridan to bail. He should only require him to enter into his own recognizances to appear to take his trial. The defendant then left the court surrounded by his friends. THAMES. THE ROBBERIES IS THE DOCES.—James Ward, a carman, aged 29 years, of No. 22, Coventry street, Bethnal-green, was brought before Mr. Paget charged with stealing 71bs. of tea, the pro perty of the East and West India Dock Company, from their premises in Poplar. Many convictions of carmen, labourers, and others for stealing tea, sugar, indigo, and other articles in the Loudon, St. Catherine, Regent's Canal, West India, East India, and the new Mill s wall Docks have taken place, and the evil has some what abated. The vigilance of the effective police maintained by the dock companies has been sorely tried, for thieves are in the practice of bring ing out tea, sugar, and other articles, necessarily exposed on the quays, sheds, and warehouses, in their carts and waggons under other goods, or ecrete their plunder in their shoes, pockets, and inside their clothes. The prisoner Ward adopted a novel expedient. He was driving a van containing four hogsheads of sugar, drawn by two horses, and carried a large bag openly in his hand. Ile was stopped by William Simmons, an officer of the West India Dock, just as he reached the gate, and he was asked what there was in the bag, " only my horses' provender," was the reply, shaking some chaff and horse beans out of the bag. The officer took the bag from the prisoner, opened it, and found in it, besides horse provender, a smaller bag containing 7lbs of tea, quite clean and fresh. The prisoner said he picked up the tea among some timber. The clean ness of the tea disproved this assertion. It had evidently been abstracted from some chest on one of the quays, or from a tea heap in a warehouse. The prisoner asked for mercy on account of his wife and family. Mr. Paget convicted the prisoner with having un lawful possession of the tea, and sentenced him to two months' imprisonment and hard labour. Her Majesty's paddle yacht Victoria and Albert was yesterday placed in dock at Portsmouth for the purpose of being surveyed, and her defects reported upon by the shipwright department of the yard. Her Majesty's paddle yacht Elfin was at the same time taken into the steam basin for a refit and re pairs to hull and machinery. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 19, 1868.

Chelsea is in the Great Eastern Handicap, but cannot have much chance at the weights. MIDDLEHAM.—On Tuesday, Osborne sent Slip Bang, 111017, Apemantus, Bertha, and Rho the mile and a half steadily. Slap Bang finished up with a good two-miler. Winter sent Light Cloud a good gallop of a mile and a half. Flying Jib went the same distance, and at a good pace. Dawson's Priest, Corporal, King of the Fairies, Minster Bell, and Savernake did nice mile and a half work. Highland Duck, Damsel filly, and the Van Galen filly went a good gallop of a mile and a half. The Dean can tered a mile. Fobert's only cantered half a mile. Wed nesaay—Osbor ne's repeated their former day's work. lIEDNESPOUD.—At Newmarket, for the Eastern Railway Handicap, Uncas has not done work. Monitor won't stand any chance. Master Willie is well in, but ran badly at Doncaster. Vex has too much weight on, and the same may be said of President Lincoln. Bassoon is best in from here, and will take seine beating. Newmarket October Handicap.—Uncas and Kidderminster are not doing much work. Retrousse has gone to Findon. Ilium and Presi dent Lincoln are both doing lots of work, but they will have no chance with Contempt or Benfleet. We have Hunter in the Sportsmen's Nursery at Edinburgh, but he is hardly ready. LAMBOURNE.—I see in the Buckenhain Stakes, at New market, we have Crocus and Bolladrum in, and which ever they run I should think would win, and it looks to me as if "the Drum" is going, by the work he is doing. I really think the reason that he was defeated at Doncaster was his being rather short of work, but the next time he runs I shall expect to hear of his winning. Nineteenth Triennial.—Highland Mary and Mayflower are in, and Highland Mary will be our best, as Mayflower I have not seen for some time. Great Eastern Railway Handicap.— We have The Parson and Sunstroke in, but I should think that neither of them will run. MALTON.-At Newmarket The Spy is engaged in the Grand Duke Michael Stakes. He has done some active work since his return, and I think him worth a place in vestment. In the St. Leger Stakes we have Thorsgill, Merry and Wise, and Booty. The first-named is out of training at present, and the other two I think will not see the post. Thunder and Toison d'Or are in the Twenty first Triennial. Thunder is a promising colt, but back ward in preparation, and I am inclined to think that neither he nor Toison d'Or will see Newmarket. FYFlELD.—Portsmouth, engaged in the Granby Stakes, is well, but I shall be able to say more about him in my next. Great Eastern Railway Handicap—Tremble has performed very indifferently all this season, but he is well in on this occasion, and should his owner back him, your readers had better follow suit. St. Leger Stakes.—Picnic has done no work for some time, but fit and well I should not stand him. Moslem is well, doing a fair amount of work, going in his old form. Grand Duke Michael Stakes —Boauerges is doing some nice steady work, but I think he will not be wanted yet. ILSLEY.—In looking over the programme of Newmarket I don't think we shall have many horses go there to run. Cap-a-Pie, engaged in the St. Leger, is very well, and fit to run, and if he goes to the post will take his own part, as he is sure to stay the course. Weather Isle, in the Twentieth Triennial Stakes, is well, but not class enough. Athelstane, in the Sweepstakes of 300 sovs each, is a big, fine colt, and a good goer, but I have no fancy for him. Lima, in the Sweepstakes of 30 sovs each, goes very fast for half a mile, but as she has to meet Minaret, she will get beaten if the latter is well and runs. Dalby is in the best of health, and daily doing steady work, goining in rare form. Bandmaster is well, but not doing much work at present. FINDON.—In the Third Year of the Nineteenth Trien nial Stakes, run at Newmarket, wo have Owain Glyndwr, but as the horse is doing so well for the Cesarewitch, it is not at all likely he will be sent. On Wednesday, in the S.. Leger Stakes, we have Madrid, who is doing good steady work; but Wednesday's and other days' racing will bo fully entered into in my next Cesarewitch—Retrousse, filly by Nowminster out of Irish Queen, Owain Glyndwr, and Romping Girl are in. CiIILTON.—We shall have no horses at Newmarket, but we have a few getting ready for something. Osprey has commenced strong work, and no horse can look or go better than ho does. Harrogate has arrived here to be trained, arid is doing steady work. Of the others doing work worth notice aro Precocious, Woodman, Cara, Care ful, and Congratulator. The latter is mostly leading the yearlings, of which we have a few good-looking ones in the filly by Ely out of Braxey, filly by Oxford out of Sul phur, colt by Oxford out of JOsephine, colt by Trumpeter out of Fisherman's Daughter, and Mums, by Oulaton out of Merry-go-Round, by Trumpeter.

BECIERAMPTON.-Mr. Woolcot was out with his team at the usual time. After walking for somo time he gave the following two canters each : —Stradbroke, Janet Rawcliffe, Minna Troil, Socrates, and Endora ; after which Strad broke and Socrates went a nice gallop of about two miles, going well. Stradbroke is the only one we have in the Cesarewitch ; he is going on well, and ought to be in the front with his light weight; the course, too, is likely to suit him. KINGSCLERE.—Ai Newmarket next week 1 do not ex pect many will be required from here. Great Eastern Handicap—Xi and Satyr are entered. The first named is not in work, and I have not seen him the last two morn ings. Satyr, if required, is sure to run forward ;he is very fit and looking very well indeed in himself now. NEWMARKET.—IIermit, Laneret, King Victor, Pericles, Siion's, Van Amburgh, Leonie, Bounceaway, Professor Anderson, Chapel Royal, Gloire de Dijon, Russian Bear, St. Angela, Clairon, Courtmantle, Belphegor, Contempt, Harebell, Roland, Pyrenees, Head Centre, Benevolence, Ritualist, Kettleholder, Snowdrop, Nelly Rose, and Casse Tete, all in the Great Eastern Handicap, have been doing regular work, and are fit to go. Dragon has only a day or two ago returned from France, so I can say little of him but that he looks well. St. Ronan and Porter's Knot are doing but little at present. I fully expect the winner will come from either Leonie or Bounceaway, both being so fresh and well. Nineteenth Triennial. —Vauban has been doing steady work. Ruth is a very bad one indeed. Ravioli is our best, is very well, and has done plenty of work. She will just about land this stake. Grand Duke Michael Stakes. Courtmantle, Mortemer, and Restitution are our most likely runners. Mortemer has of late been in France, but he appears all right, and is going well. I should fancy ho will about beat this lot. Thun derstorm is out of training at present. Hopeful Stakes.— Thor is a big horse, but not yet fit. Brother to Chat tanooga is only doing gentle canters. De Vere and Al bania are both in good work, as also Abstinence and the filly out of King Alfred's dam- Abstinence will win. Of our Cesarewich horses Julius has left us. Hermit goes well at present. Blueekin has only been, as I before said, going on steadily. Friponnier has been going on most satisfactorily with Friday, Knight Errant, and Makeshift colt, and no animal can be looking or daing better. 81OCKBRIDGE.—On Wednesday the following horses were out and cantered : —Logarithm, Equerry, Birdsoeker, Cock of the Walk, Minnie Warren, Scottish Oueen, Beata, Lady Duppliu, and Lady Elizabeth. Herald, Red Rice, Blucher, and Crucifixion filly were walking about. There are thirteen yearlings out (all colts) from Danebury, and most of them canter awl go as straight as old horses. The same lot of horses were out from both Danebury and Houghton Downs and cantered. Then Mr. Briggs led Lady Raglan a gallop of a mile and a half. Friday.—They were again the same from both places, and all cantered ex cept Heral, Minnie Warren, and Crucifixion filly. Cock of the Walk then led Scottish Queen a good gallop of a mile. RlcuMOND.—Reltub, Caprera, Stella, Tho Gleaner, De claration, King Hal, Roderick Random, and Nothing More have been daily taking the long gallop gently. Prior, Carnival c, Lady DeWliurst, Sawyer, Last Rose of Sum mer, Annie Stewart, Intricate, Parasol, Attache, Miss Chapman, Bessie Dixon, and all others have taken their usual steady work.
