Raymond & Co. to a check for $155, a large number of persons have called at the Jefferson Market Police Court, and tdentifled him as the imdividuat who had victimized them in a similar manner, Yesterday afternoon there were three additional complaints preferred against him, Louis Bossuet, a shoemaker of No, 126 Bleecker street, who stated that nearly three years ago Brown called at his place, and, representing himseif as & newspaper re- porter, obtained a pair of booia, valued atten dol- lars, on credit, He heard nothing further from nim until the first of the present month, when he was somewhat surprised at re- ceiving a letter from his creditor, — in- forming him that he would be in a condition ina few days to liquidate the debt and square accounts, On the 16th inst. Brown visited him and represented himseli as connected with the editorial department of the Sua at a moderate salary, but not so smail that he couid not afford to pay the debt contracted, as his conscieace had been troubled in reference to tt these three long years, and he was happy to inform Mr. Bossuet that he could pay the debt and walk forth into the world not owiug @ cent to his iellow mortals.

From the bank he proceeded to the ofice of Mr. Dana, and there learned aiso that he had been victim‘'zed.
