Desperate fellow.

--A man giving the name of Richard J. Friend, evidently a "rough" of the hardest kind, was arraigned before the Mayor yesterday for getting drunk and breaking down a gate attached to the premises of Mrs. Wootten, near the Old Market, scaring that lady into spasms, and, when put in the cage, amusing himself by breaking out the iron bars over the door, meanwhile indulging in the most obscene language. The proof of the various charges was very ample. The only excuse offered by the prisoner was that he was drunk and did not remember anything of the occurrences spoken of. He was sent on for indictment by the Hustings Court Grand Jury in August, and committed in default of $300.
