DREADFUL ACCIDENT.-0111 Sunday morning last, a
man named William Rimmer, aged 23, who resided in
Gibson's Court, Highfield-street, went upon the roof of
the house next his own, for the purpose of flying pigeons,
when he rolled down the slates and fell into the yard
below. He was immediately picked up, and was found
to be quite dead.
DEATH BY FALLING FROM A MAST-HEAD.—On
Saturday, a young man, aged 19, named Frederic Potts,
an apprentice on board the ship Emigrant, lying in the
Brunswick Dock, went aloft to reef the signal halyard,.
when he somehow lost his hold, and fell down on to the
deck. He was quite insensible when picked up, and dead
before he could be got on shore.
ROYAL LIVER THEATRE.---The performances at this
favourite theatre continue to attract delighted audiences.
" Clarisse" still remains a stock piece, and, from the ex-
cellent acting of Messrs. Lester and W. J. Hammond,
is received, at each repetition with undiminished favour.
Last night, a new pieces, entitled " The Loves of Lord
Bateman and Fair Sophia" was introduced, which was
full of food for uproarious mirth.
MR. GEO. KEET, PORTRAIT PAINTER.—WC have been
favoured by this gentleman, who has just returned from
Italy, where he has been pursuing bis studies, with an
inspection of some of his sketches, copies from the old
masters, &c. Mr. Keet purposes, we fiud settling in
this, his native town ; and from what we have seen of his
talent, we are confident that, in the line which he has
chosen to practise in,—viz. partrait painting,—his facility
of pencil and general knowledge of his art, combined with
excellent taste, will render him an acquisition to our
Liverpool Art.
ATTEMPTED HOUSE ROBBERY.—At the Police-court
yesterday, a young man named John Smith was charged
with having, with another, entered the house of an elderly
woman, Mary Wilson, in a court in Eldon-street, during
her absence on Saturday night. On her return she was
alarmed by bearing persons up stairs, and giving the
alarm, a neighbour ran in and finally found the prisoner
stretched at full length under a bed. The other man
escaped. Some articles were found partially removed,
but nothing was taken. The house bad been opened by
false keys. The prisoner was committed for trial.
REMOVING SPIRITS WITHOUT A PERMIT.—Two men,
Lawrence M'Kenna and Thomas Carney, were yesterday
charged before Mr. Rushton with this offence, which at
first appeared also to involve a felony. It appeared that
on Saturday last the prisoners were observed, by a police
officer, rolling a cask on the pavement in Renshaw-street,
and suspiciOn arising they were questioned, when they
said it was porter which they were taking to Mrs. Lloyd's,
publican, in the same street. That person, however, said
she knew nothing about it. It was also found that in place
of porter, the cask contained 18 gallons of rum. Under the
act 6th of George IV, sec. 118, which makes the extreme
penalty for the offence £lOO. Mr. Rushton fined the
prisoners £5O each, or to be imprisoned for three months.
ROCK FERRY.—TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.—On Saturday
evening last, at a meeting of the subscribers to a testi-
monial to Mr. Thomas Weston, held at .the Rock Hotel,
Joseph Ackers, Esq. was unanimously called upon to
preside. After a very complimentary speech from the
chairman to Mr. Weston, followed by other gentlemen,
it was resolved, on the motion of Mr. J. Nelson Wood,
seconded by Mr. Charles H. Steele, "That this plate
be presented to Mr. Thomas Weston, on his leaving the
collectorship of Rock Ferry, for his long and tried
services, with a request he will accept it as a testimonial
of their esteem and regard for the uniform civility and
kindness he has at all times manifested towards them."
Mr. Weston returned thanks in a most feeling manner.
The plate consists of a richly embossed silver bread
basket, and salts. This token of regard is most de-
servedly bestowed, as few men are more respected at
Rock Ferry and the neighbourhood than Mr. Weston.
CHARGE OF EMBEZZLEMENT —Yesterday, at the
Police-court,a respectably dressed young man, named
Thomas Leacy, was charged with this offence by his
uncle, Mr. James Leacy, a cattle-dealer. Mr. Leacy
said he had employed the prisoner to go to Stamford fair
with twenty bullocks, with directions either to remit the
money, or a bill at ten days for it, or to bring it to him
himself, at Wigtown, in Scotland. The prisoner sold the
bullocks and got the money—£lBs but in place of bring-
ing or remitting it, he had remitted only £l2l, and re-
tained the rest, on the plea that it was due to him as
wages—though no wages were due—and he (prisoner)
in lieu of the deficiency had made out a bill (produced)
by which it was falsely made out that complainant was
actually in debt to him. The prisoner was under agree-
ment to serve the complainant for seven years at £5O
a year, and had received his wages up to the time. The
letter containing this statement of the prisoner had been,
posted from Liverpool, which, it appeared, placed the
case within the jurisdiction of Mr. Rushton, who accord-
ingly committed him for trial.
Our musical readers cannot fail to have noticed in the
newspapers, Mr. Haddock, the celebrated violoncello
player's advertisement of a grand miscellaneous concert
on Tuesday, the 9th of December, at the Royal Assembly
Rooms, Great George-street. The lovers of genuine
vocal and instrumental harmony, who would luxuriate in
performances of the highest class, need only to be referred
to the programmes, now ready. There they will see Mr.
Willy, whose execution on the violin has called forth so
much admiration in London, with Signor F. and Madame
Lablache. Mr. Haddock's well-earned fame at our
Philharmonic requires no further addition from us. His
solo, on his most difficult of all instruments, will, we
predict, form one, amongst the many gems of the de-
lightful evening. Mrs. H. Beale, who gave so successful
n concert in the same rooms, a few months slice, will
again take her place at the piano-forte. We feel our
incompetence to do justice to this lady's merits. Th,,se
who have heard her, and witnessed her utmost execution,
will agree with us. Early application should be made
or tickets.
