BO TV-STREET.

Alfred Fre►►ch, the young man who was brought up
on Tuesday charged with embezzling money, the property
of Mr. Wild, the lessee of the Olympic Theatre, was
placed at the bar this morning for further examination.
The depositions taken were read over, and
the only further witness against the prisoner was,
Mr. Giles Higgins, a friend of Mr. Wild's, stated
that he was going into the pit of the Olympic Theatre
on the night in question, and observed that the money-
taker's box was empty, and the witness took possession
of it himself. On examining the till he found that the
money was gone, and immediately gave information to
an officer of the flight of the prisoner. He then returned
to the money• taker's box, and received the money from
parties visiting the theatre. After the performances
were over the witness went into the treasury, and shortly
afterwards the prisoner was brought in, in the custody
of an officer, and he gave up a bag containing the money
he had abstracted to the witness. This wa►s about
twelve o'clock, and the witness counted the money and
then sealed the bag. There was SI. 17s. in the bag.
The prisoner was then taken to the station-house and
searched, and 2s. 6d. found upon his person. Witness
sent the sealed bag to Mr. Wild, and it was delivered to
the office.

The whole of the depositions having been read over to
the prisoner, he was fully committed for trial.

WORSHIP-STREET.

Charles Edward Hopwood and Joseph Jones., the
former 10, and the latter 12 years of age, were charged
with having been concerned in stealing a sovereign and
a quantity of silver, the property of Mr. Young, a fish-
monger in Whitecross-street.
The prosecutor stated that the prisoner Hopwood had
been in his service as errand-boy for about a fortnight,
and his parents were decent, hard-working people. On
Friday evening last, feeling rather fatigued after the la-
bours of the day, he retired into a parlour behind the
shop in order to take a nap, but on awakening soon af-
terwards he found that his pocket had been picked, and
that the prisoner, whom he had left to attend at the
counter, had gone away. The money taken from his
pocket amounted to a sovereign and about 18s. He im-
mediately apprised the boy's father of the occurrence,
and the latter used every exertion to trace his son, which
lie succeeded in doing on the preceding- evening.
The father of Hopwood, who was much affected, said
that he had been in search of his son ever since the rob-
bery took place, and he at length met him in a street
near his own house, in a deplorable condition. He took
him home and taxed him with having committed the
robbery, which he at first denied, but on receiving a
promise that he would be forgiven if he told the truth,
he confessed that he had taken the money, and said he
had been instigated to do so by the prisoner Jones. He
stated further, that after absconding with the money, he
met Jones by appointment in Smithfield, and they took
a cab for the purpose of proceeding to Gravesend, but
before they got half way there, the cabman put them
out, and made them pay 12s. 3d. for the journey. They
travelled on to Gravesend in a waggon, and on their
arrival they shared between them the residue of the
money, which was soon spent, and the boy Jones after-
wards gave him the slip, He made his way back to
London alone and on foot, but he was afraid
to thee his master or return home, and he had
since been wandering about the streets. The father of
Hopwood added that he communicated the particulars
of his son's confession to the master, who gave him into
custody, and the other prisoner was afterwards appre-
hended by a policeman.
The prisoner Jones denied haring taken any part in
the robbery, or that he was aware of it until after it was
committed.

The MAGISTRATE said that he had no doubt they
were equally guilty, and he should remand them for a
week, to give time for the prosecittor to determine
what course he intended to pursue towards them.
