BOW-STREET.
Benjamin Niehol.worth, shopman in the service of
Messrs. Weiss and Co., cutlers, 62, Strand, was

chargA with emlazzlement.
Mr. Richard Williams, a partner, said that in con-
sequence of some suspicions againat the prisoner, he
found it necessary to request of a customer to make
some purchases, and by that means discovered that
the prisoner had appropriated the proceeds to his own
use.

Mr. Matthaw Thomas Roe, eltrk to his father, who
is a wholesale JA'ion,r, prov; that he i.urcbased a
number of artie!es front the Fri:oner, the price Of
which vr?s 1/ 13 s., which he had pci,i for, there b. ing

no other perion hehind th eoun't-r at th^ time.
Mr. Willi ins said that the only entry made for the
goods in question was 133., whiuh the prisontr did
not make until he was spoken, to upon the subj Pet by
another clerk, to whom he at first dez,ied all know-

ledge of the circumstance, but subs€quently sai 1, " It
certainly looks very black against me." The salary
paid him was 303. a we-k.
In answer to the charge, the prisoner said he had
received the money before he went to his tea, and he
thought nothing more of the matter until he was
spoken to, having forgotten to enter it in consequence
of being troubled i❑ his mind respecting money he
had recently lent.
Mr. HENRY ordered the prisoner to be fully com-
mitted to the Westminster Sessions for trial, with
directions that he should be brought up again to
give time for further inquiries.
Henry James Church, a clerk in the service of Mr.
Browne, a barrister, occupying chambers in Essex-
court, Temple, was brought up on a warrant,
charged with threatening to kill his employer by
shooting him.
Mr. Browne stated that the prisoner bad been his
clerk nearly nine years, and he regretted to say he
was compelled to discharge him on Friday last, there
being every reason to suppose he was not of sound
mind ; such being also the opinion of the medical
gentlemen who had examined him. When his con-
duct and expressions were observed to be strange,
about two months heck, he was sent to Brighton and
also to Jersey, which seemed to have a beneficial
effect, as he attended on his return to his duties in a
very regular manner ; but about a fortnight back he
suddenly disappeared, leaving a very threatening letter
in the chambers, and he also took occasion to leave a
second letter, containing incoherent and threatening
language, in consequence of which he found it would
be dangerous to continue him in his employ, which
he mentioned to him, and he admitted that he had
written such letters, considering witness one of the
ungodly. He had also abstracted the fee-book, which
compelled him to send to his several clients to apprise
them of the fact, and that he had ceased to be his
clerk, which appeared to give him such offence that
he repeated the threat to his successor which he had
made in the letters. There was every reason from
such conduct to apprehend bodily danger.
In answer to the COURT,
Mr. Browne said that when the prisoner came to
his chambers a few days back, he said " Well, Church ;
what now ?" and he called out in a very excited
manner, "Don't say Church; call me Mr. Church.
I'll call you Brown, being no longer in your service"
He then showed a valuable breast pin, saying, " God
Almighty has given me this, and has permitted me to
call him father, enjoining me to leave the ungodly,"
thereby meaning his employer.
The magistrate having read the letters, the pri-
soner exclaimed " If I am mad it is such as I should
like to see more general, and I would wish that I
were a rabid dog, biting others for the purpose of
spreading a malady that was much required."
The evidence of Mr. Browne being corroborated
by his present clerk, the prisoner said be had no wish
to shoot him ; instead of which he wished him every
success in his professional career, but the clerk was
too contemptible, in his opinion, to address.
Mr. Hearty ordered him to be sent to the House
of Detention for a week, with directions to the
medical attendant that the state of his mind should be
closely watched.

EXTENSIVE SYSTEM OF ROBBERY AT HOTELS BY
A DANE.—Yesterday the court was again crowded to
excess in consequence of its having been the day ap-
pointed for the re-examination of a young roan, a
Dane, Charles Frederick _Krohn, alias the Count
Krohn, alias Derr Manson, who had been remanded
by Mr. Broughton on two previous occasions upon
charges preferred against him for robberies at various
hotels to a very considerable amount, the property
stolen consisting principally of watches, of jewellery,
and cash, belonging to the M irquis of Granby, the
Rev: Mr. Hughes, Lod other gentlemen, who unfor-
tunately for themselves had chaneAl to be inmates of
hotels at which the prisoner had also taken up a tem-
porary residence. The particulars which transpired
upon the previous inquiries have already appeared in
our paper.
Air. Fell, the chief clerk, having read over the
whole of the depositions which had been taken,
The prisoner (on being questioned in the usual way
by the magistrate) replied that he had nothing to say
in answer to either of the cases brought forward.
(lie seemed much dejected, and rested his head upon
the bar.)
Mr. BROUGHTON told him that he stood committed
upon four distinct charges, and that he would be sent
to Newgite for trial. As he was a foreigner he
would b 3 entitled to have a jury composed of half
Englsh and half foreigners, should he think fit to do

so.
Prisoner—l would much rather have all English,
sir, to try me.
He was then locked up.

Mr. BROUGHTON took occasion to observe that In-
spector Hannent, of the I) division, had, al) initio
shown much tact and ability with regard to the wry
in which the case had been got up, and that by his
exertions he had rendered much service to the public,
who were deeply interested as to the modus operandi
by which such artful robberies were effected.

and after waiting some time he directed the constable

which they were provided. The first blow of the
hammer forced the door open ; but a chain interpos-
ing, that was also forced, and an entry effected. The
police proceeded forward and found a door covered
