FURIOUS DRIVING.

Friday,

MANSLAUGHTER.—At seven o'clock yesterday
evening an Inquest was held at the Triumphant Chariot, Pem-
broke-mews, Grosvenor-place, before Mr. HIGGs, the Coroner;
touching the death of a young lady at present unknown, who
was unfortunately knocked clown and run over near Hyde-park
on Sunday night last.
Mr. William Simpson, of Spring-place, Kentish-town, de.
posed that at a little after twelve o'clock on Sunday night last
he was on his rerurn from Fulham, and as he approached the
turnpike-gate at Hyde-park, within a few yards from St.
George's Hospital, he noticed a light chaise-cart driving With
rapid fury towards Chelsea, and at the same instant he saw
the deceased female, under the horses heels, he called to the
driver to stop, but he only quickend his pace, and soon
got entirely out of sight. A gentleman, came up and
with the assistance of a third person she was conveyed to the
abOve Hospital. where she was instantly attended by a medical
Gentleman. The deceased appeared to have received a most
severe blow, as her bonnet was found a considerable distance
from where she was run over, and her reticule in another di-
rection. Witness's attention being solely. to the decased, the
driver of the cart effected his escape. He did not mention the
circumstance to the turnpike man, he was so alarmed and
confused.

Mr. William Cowley, the house-surgeon at the Hospital,
stated, that he attended the young lady ; when brought there
she was insensible, and there was a lascerated wound over the
left eye, as if cut with a stone, and other evident marks on
her head, as if she had received some severe blows. As
soon as. she rallied, and the pulse rose, there appeared
manifest symptoms of a pressure on the brain. The most
active exertions were used to recover her, but without
the desired effect, and she died from those consequences.
Witness has examined the body since death, and found the
skull fractured, the brain considerably lacerated, and an effu-
sion of blood was on the brain.
' Daniel Bates, of Bath Cottage, Old Brompton, §tated, he
was the toll-collector at Hyde-park gate, on the morning of the
accident but did not hear of it till Monday, when he remarked
to the person who told him what had happened, that he recol-
lected about 20 minutes. before ten o'clock, a cart came through
the turnpike-gate very fast indeed ; there was a dog harking
before it; thinks two persons were in the cart; they were pro-
ceeding at the. rate of 11 or 12 miles an hour. He did
.not
know the driver of the cart or to whom it belonged, it was paint-
ed a dark colour. Witness to avoid the dog opened the gate,
and the cart went through at full speed, or without paying the
toll.
There being no further evidence, the Jury deeply lamented
the sad occurrence ; they considered that great .iegligetiee was
attached to the driver in so furiously driving,
the death of the poor creature; and they unanimously returnedson
a verdict of "Manslaughter against some person or per. s
unknown." Which had causei

LINCOLNSHIRE.
(From the Boston Gazette, Sept. 27.)
Moat Ancient and Honourable SOCIETY of FttEE and Ac-
- CEPTED 111Asolis, under the Direction of the Rev.
III'ATTHEw BattNETT, of Market Rasen, D.P.(1.111. for

. the County of Lincoln. -
On Tuesday evening last the arrival of various bodies of Free-
Masons from the different towns in the. county, together with
visitors from the neighbourhood to witness the imposing cere-
monies of the following day, gave this town quite a bustling
appearance.—On that evening a Lodge was held at the very
handsome room belonging to the Freemasons of this town, when
the Rev. 111 atthe w Barnett presided. On Wednesday morning
the bells i ang a merry peel,' and the accession of strangers in
diffi.rent vehicles was very considerable. The weather bore a
very changeable and unsettled appearance, and threatened to
spoil the festivities of the day. As the morning advanced some
temporary showers gave way to a gleam of sunshine, again
followed by a gloom which prevailed when the grand proces-
sion commenced its march from the Town Hall to the Church,
which took place about eleven o'clock ; 'fears were entertained
that the impending showers would not hold off till they had.
reached their destination ; these fears, hoviever; ultimately
proved groundless. The distance from the Town Hall to the
Church, which had for some time been lined by spectators,
became one dense mass as the procession advanced, and every
spot likely to afford a view of the-novel spectacle was eagerly
seized upon by the multitude—lndeed so intense was the inte-
rest of the moment that it was with considerable difficulty the
order of procession was preserved.—The peculiar and hand-
some decorations made use of on the occasion, together with
the different banners displayed, were of the most splendid des-
cription, and commanded universal attention and admiration.
The subjoined is the order`Of the procession :

The Grand Master (Brother M. Barnett)

Having reached the western entrance of the Church, the gates
of which were specially open for the occasion, as we believe
they at other times always remain closed,' the Freemasons form,
ed a double line, through which the Deputy Grand Provincial
Master, followed by the different officers and members in their
order of seniority passed. On entering the Church the pealing
again struck up " Clorious Apollo," and the Masons in the
same order of procession they had hitherto observed, accom,
panied by their insignia, proceeded to the seat usually occupied
by the Corporation of this borough. The wish to obtain seats
was very great, but we rejoice to state that no accident occurred
in consequence. A considerable period elapsed before silence
could be in any degree restored, when the Rev. R. Duckle read
the prayers appointed for the day. At the close of the Liturgy
the following hymn was sung
Almight Sire, y our heavenly King.
Before thy sacred name we bend, "
Accept the praises which we sing,
•
And to our humble prayer attend.

On thy omnipotence we rest
Secure of thy protection here,
And hope hereafter to be blest,
When we have left this world of care.
Grant us, great God, thy powerful aid,
To guide us thro this vale of tears, •
For where thy goodness is display'd
Peace soothes the mind and pleasure cheers.
Inspire us with thy grace divine,
Thy sacred law ourguide shall be,
To every good our hearts incline„
From every evil keep us free.

And previous to the sermon the subjoined hymn, the music
of which was composed specially for the occasion by Mr. J. F.
pßlaedcedi:e, organist, of Boston, was sung by some vocalists of this

RECITATIVE.
Let there be light!' the Almighty Spoke,
Refulgent streams from chaos broke,
To illume the rising earth !
Well pleas'd the Great Jehovah stood—
The Power Supreme pronounc'd it good,
And gave the planets birth !

cnottus.
In choral numbers Masons join,
To bless and praise this light divine.
Parent of light ! accept our praise!!
Who shedd'st on ❑s—thy brightest rays,
The light that fills the mind
7;y choice selected, Ict! we stand,
By friendship join'tl; a social band !
That love—that aid mankind !
Chorus--In choral numbers, &C.

SEMICHORUS.
The widow's tear—the orphan's cry—
All wants—our ready hands supply,
As far as power is given !
The naked clothe—the pris'ner free—
These are thy works, sweet charity !
Reveal'd to us from Heaven !
Chorus—ln choral numbers, &c.

It had been announced that the Rev. G. Oliver would
preach a sermon on the occasion, but owing to indisposition
preventing that gentleman's attendance, the Rev. W. Smith,
of Grimsby, officiated in his absence. The text was taken from
the 11th verse of the Ist chapter of St. John's Gospel : 4 The
light shined' in darkness, hut the darkness comprehendeth it
not.'—As we understand the sermen is, likely to be published
in another form, we must necessarily confine ourselves to a
brief summary of it. The first part of the Rev. Gentleman's
observations went to show that the light spoken of in his text
which he declared to be the light of masonry—had continued in
bne uninterrupted stream froM the time of the ancient patriarchs
to the present period ; and having observed that it Was an es-
