LINES TO A FRIEND,
ABOUT TO MARRY A SECOND TIME

Oh! keep the ring one little year—
Keep poor Es.rzA's ring—
And shed on it the silent tear
In secret sorrowing !
Thy lips, on which her last last kiss
Yet lingers most and warm.
Oh ! wipe them not for newer bliss,
But keep it as a charm!
These haunts are sacred to her love ;
Here still her presence dwells ;
Of her the grot, of her the grove,
Of her the garden tells!
Beneath those elms she sate and talk'd :
Beside that river's brink,
At evening, arm in arm, you walk'd ;
Here stopt to gaze and think !
Thou'it meet her when thy blood beats high
In converse with thy bride ;
)feet the mild meaning of an eye
That never learnt to chide!
Ob, no! by Jove, another year,
Thou canst not, must not bring;
No, keep it but one little year—
Keep poor ELtaa's ring !

CORONERS' INQUESTS.

Yesterday afternoon, an Inquisition was held at the
Buffalo's Head, New Road-street, Mary-la. Bonne, be-
fore T. STIRLING, Esq. on the body of Ann Winter,
an elderly Lady, who was killed accidentally by a
chaise going over her.—lt appeared in evidence, that
on the 29th of last month the deceased was crossing
the New Read, near Mary-la-Bonne Church, when a
gig drawn by a horse came furiously along, and
knocking her down, went over her ; she was taken
up, and complained of being much bruised ; the gig
had at the time a Gentleman and his groom in it, and
belonged to Mr. Harvey, of Gloucester place ; the
deceased was instantly taken to the Infirmary, and
remained in a state of insensibility. On being ex-
amined by Mr.Goodger, the surgeon of the Infirmary,
her collar bone and four ribs were found broken ; she
remained in the state of insensibility until Friday last,
when she expired.—The groom stated, that on the
day in question he and his master had for some time
driven through the Regent's Park, and were return-
ing home, when the horse took fright at some brick-
layers working on houses, and darted off, and conld
not be stopped until after the accident happened.—
The horse was a new one from the country, and was
not accustomed to harness, although warranted ; he
abad hallooed out to the woman, but the horse went
on so rapidly that his caution was too late. The gig
was upset, and he and his master were thrown out.
The Coroner said the horse should not be brought
into public streets ; it was unwarrantable to drive
such a horse in a public road.—The groom replied,
the animal was sent to a breaker's, and that his mas-
ter had not driven him since.—Mr. Harvey
.corrobo-
rated the statement, adding, he should part with the
horse, as he conceived he was not safe in harness.—
The Jury, after a few minutes consideration, returned
a verdict of "• Accidental Death."—Deodand Is. wish
an understanding that Mr. Harvey would render pe-
cuniary assistance to the husband of the deceased.
Ataiquest was held at the King's Arms, St. Mar-
tin's-cout t, on the body ref Alice Edgar, who died in
consequence of failing, in a state of intoxication, with
her head against the edge of an earthen pan.—Ver-
dict—Apoplexy produced by a fall.
An Inquisition was taken yesterday afternoon, be-
lute Tnomas SuntroN, Esq. at the Blue Last, in
Dorset-street, Salisbury-square, on the body of ilr.
John Lumley, a carcase butcher, aged fifty-thiee
years, and a icsident of Crown-court, Dorsemtreet.
The Jury:, after a short deliberation, returned a ver-
dict, that the deceased " Died in a fit of Apoplexy,
occasioned by excessive drinking."
Saturday night last, about nine o'clock, Mr. Jo-
seph Fellows left the White Halt Inn, Hayes, to go
to his farm through his landlord's
.park (It. W. Bien-
cowes, Esq.), and the. foot-path being turned since
his last passing that way home, he mistook the en-
trance to the bridge over the canal, and fell in, and
being nearly eighty years of age, his strength was
not sufficient to extricate himself. His dog being
with him, from natural instinct Went home to in-
form the family, in barking, scratching at the door,
etc. Airs. Fellows became alarmed, and immedi-
ately sent the servant after her husband; and after a
search of more than an hour, the body was found
near the bridge with the hat on, and the walking
stick firmly clenched in his hand. Mr. STIRLING,
Cot over for the County, held an Inquest on the body
Oa Monday last, when a verdict of " Accidentally
Drowned" was given.— Mr. Fellows was. universally
respected, and has been a very industrious man
through life, and has never thought it a disgrace to
put his hand to the plough ; he has brought up a
large family, who, with Mrs. Felton s, are much dis-
tressed-az this fatal accident.
