THE BRIGHTON RAILWAY COLLISON. GOVERN-
MENT INQUlRY.—Yesterday Captain Wynne, the Govern-
ment inspector of Railways, proceeded to institute an in-
quiry on behalf of the railway department of the Board of
Trade, into the recent collision with the express train on the
reportdisaster
Brighton line. His of the will be forwarded
to the Board of Trade, when it will be made public.—The
injuries to the Earl of Chichester is not of that serious char-
acter, which from general report we had been led to expect.
His lordship's left eyebrow was laid open, the wound being
rather more than an inch in length, but not of serious depth.
Mrs. Cloves, a widow lady, residing at IS, Regency-square,
who was in a first-class carriage with Mr. George Tamplin
and Mrs. Tamplin, received the most severe injury of any
person in the train. She sustained a compound fracture of
her right leg, and the anterior plate of her left leg was
greatly indented, but the limb was not broken. She is at-
tended by Mr. B. Valiance; and on inquiry last night at the
surgery, we ascertained that sae is going on as favourably as
can be expected under the unfortunate circumstances. Lord
and Lady Foley and Mr. and Miss Wygram, of Brunswick-
square, were also among those who were injured.
REPRESENTATION OF BRADFORD.— Die committee
which conducted the late election in the interest of Col.
Thompson, have decided to petition against no return
of Mr. Wickham. They feel that the election of that
gentleman was not the fair expression of the opinions
and wishes of the electors—that it WEIS accomplished
by a conspiracy of the Roman Catholic voters
and indirectly by corrupt and false votes. The votes of
the former cannot be removed from the poll, but those
of the latter can, and by their removal the act of the
former rendered null and void. On this accountchiefl

at the New Inn, to consider what steps shall be taken iny
