TVESTMIN SER. Sir Janzes Sutherland APKenzie, who was charged at this court about three weeks ago with being drunk and damaging a cab, was again brought before the magistrate for drunkenness and disorder in Lowergrove, Brompton. Sergeant Tewsby, 17 B, said, that at about five o'clock on Sunday evening he was in the Bromptonroad, when hearing a great shouting be immediately hastened to the spot whence it proceeded, and found a number of persons assembled. On his way thither he heard something fall heavily on the ground, which turned out to be a gun-case thrown down with so much violence as to break it open and cause its contents to fall out. He found defendant running to and fro opposite the house in which he resided, in Lower-grove, like a wild person, and he could not get him to explain what was the matter. Defendant was drunk, and after ordering witness to go after a Great Western •cab, rushed into his house, leaving his gun-case in the road, and telling witness not to touch it. He returned again into the street in two or three minutes and conducted himself in so disorderly a manner that, as more people were assembling, witness was obliged to take him to the station-house. Mr. BRODERIP asked defendant what he had to say to the charge? Sir James, who held his hat before his face so as to conceal his features, was about to reply, when A gentleman, who stated that he was his solicitor, informed the magistrate that Sir James had likewise to appear that morning at Marlborough-street Policecourt to answer another charge,' upon which he was at large on bail, and solicited the magistrate to suspend his decision in the present case in order to afford an opportunity of offering some explanation at Marlborough-street. So far as regarded the present charge, it might be as well to state that Mrs. Jackson, at whose house it occurred, had no desire whatever to press any charge, and therefore the only complaint was that of the police for any disorder or breach of the peace which might have taken place in the street. Defendant, perhaps, might not have been quite so sober as at the present moment. Sir James interrupted the solicitor by declaring in an under tone that he was not drunk. Mr. BRODERIP inquired the nature of the charge at Marlborough- street. The solicitor replied that it was for some disturbance in King-street, where defendant had chambers. Mr. BRODERIP inquired whether he had been brought up to this court before. A policeman replied in the affirmative, and having explained the nature of the charge then against him, Mr. BRODERIP asked whether he was fined upon that occasion ? A policeman replied that be was not, but discharged upon paying the amount of damage. Mr. BRODERIP observed, that what the result of the Marlborough-street case might be he of course could not say, but he must deal with the defendant for the offence committed in his district; but as he did not appear to have done any actual mischief, he thought the penalty of 10s. would meet the justice of the case. The fine was immediately paid, and defendant left in a cab for Marlborough-street. Frederick Judd, a youth of 17, who stands charged with a most desperate and murderous assault upon his aged father, was again brought before the magistrate. Upon the accused being placed in the dock, Sergeant Loom handed in the following certificate: Westminster Hospital, April 21. " I hereby certify that Richard Judd lies at present in a state of extreme danger. " LEONARD BOON, House Surgeon." Mr. BRODERIP observed, that under these circumstances it was his duty to remand the prisoner for another week. Remanded accordingly. The unfortunate father has remained in a state of unconsciousness since his first admission to the hospital on Saturday week, consequently no opportunity has heen afforded of taking any statement, which in the result of a fatal termination Might be hereafter used against the accused. Mr. Broderip has made repeated inquiries upon the subject of the poor man's condition, with a view of proceeding to the hospital, and even remained some time beyond his ordinary hour of departure yesterday, but as the wounded man still remained insensible a visit would have been completely fruitless.
