On Sunday afternoon, while Charles the Tenth was returning from

chapel, the horses, in taking the turn from the Regent Road down to the Abboy-hill, set off at full gallop, and the sudden start of the animals threw the driver from his seat. They continued their career along the Abbey-hill, until a party, which was a little way in advance, very adroitly drew up their carriage in the narrow way of the Water- gate ; when the frightened steeds were brought to a stand, and Charles with his party got out in safety.
