Mr. Sleigh. on behalf of Lord Clinton, addrered the
bench at some length, and contended that • more grounder
and vexations charge than the present had never been pre-
ferred in • court of juries. He wished it to be known that
Lord Clinton, who, one former occasion. lad been stated by
his fnend Mr. Robinson to be a director of the Wheal
Zion Company, wee not a director; he was Amply • share-
holder. It had been proved that Lord Clinton held 737 shares,

Mr. (heard addressed the bench on behalf of Mr. Jeffres.
Mr. Robinson replied.
The Lord Mayor—l certainly have gone through this one.
with a great deal of patience, and 1 cannot help thinking
that there has been a greet der of irregularity on

Mr. Stockwell of thin property. Therefore, em to the

THE FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE
GREAT NOITHERN RAILWAY.

DEATH OF ONE OF THE INJURED.
VWXAMUMPOMMIO

TIIXFORD, 5/tTURDAT NIONT..

To-day, one of the government inspectors of rail-
wan, accompanied by Mr. Welter Leith, the Great Hareem
halimy kopeeistendmt, inspected minutely the portion of
the line whore the accident occurred. Ile also took the evi-
dence of a great number of men in the employ of the erns-
paay, to., as to their belief of the working of the line, its
Asti, ec., upon which he will found • report. This report,
If not laid before the coroner on Tuesday next for the guid-
ance of the jury, will doubtless be made public in some other
form. I believe, however, that I roily nay the inspector will
Icy his report been the 0 WOW. and the jury. It is most
likely ale° that he will give evidence ad to the probable cause
of the accident, even although such evidence may be em-
bodied in his report.
This afternoon I also peraonallir visited the fatal place,
sad found much which had been stated m the pipers waa
erroneous. I therefore subjoin my observation.
Starting from Milord statism, which or very nearly 21
mfles north of where the accident occurred, the line, after
freight through a slight cutting for nearly half-a-
-h, proceeds by a gentle curve inclination to the
left (up) until the Stone-road-end gents-housir is noshed.
BM the line is keel with the highway, wile It it wows.
This gate-house Is distant from Tirf,rl newly a mile NW •
half, and from London a few varda more than NI silks. On
paining the 1301 rode poet ((rot Loudon) the hnu is some
12 or 13 feet raised above the surface of the surrounding
field.. This ratted portion no ulemt !oaf • mile in length, and
then there isavery Alight cutting aboutaquarter of it sidelong.
From the termination of this cutting to tie,son.besise, when
the carriages were smashed, Is exactly a quarter of a mile.
The portion of the line from the tiloue.road•end gate-house
(before alluded to) to • little beyond Weston-bridge, is to the
eye perfectly straight and the incline very gentle—l believe'
about I in 120. However I do not leticsk with
authority so to gradient of the incline. After
emerging from the katmanied eliAt cu. line the tins again
res. Above the level of the odds through v. hi gi it pewee
and tte sward surface of the ground slopes sway until it
