Mr. HANBURY, jun., first returned thauks, express-
ing his gratitude to the electors for having returned
him, and also for the manner he had been received by
all. (Cheers.) On that occasion ho should be short,
and he hoped sweet—(cries of "Sweet beer")—and in
the course of his remarks he alluded to so young a
man, without political experience, being placed
in so high a position. Although they might have
elected a more experienced man, they could not have
selected one who would more efficiently do his duty
to the constituency and the country at large. He hoped
all would work for the moral, social, and religious im-
provement of the country. (The hon. gentleman was
interrupted by frequent allusions to beer.) He alluded
to three members of his firm being in Parliament,
which was met by cries of " Sweet beer," "Push the
trade," cheers, and laughter. He asked them not to
condemn on a future occasion without baying his expla-
nation. (Cries of "The representative of Small Beer."
Lord ROBERT GROSVENOR, in returning thank,, said
he had not been disappointed by the result of the election,
and referred to the emblem of mortality pushed in his
face on the day of nomination, labelled with the wrong
ticket, for instead of "No GrosVenor," the electors had
triumphantly returned him. He should return to Par-
liament as hitherto, determined fearlessly to do his duty
alike to the county and the country. (Cheers.)
Lord CHELSEA having briefly addressed the electors,
thanking them for what they had done, said that,
although defe4ti3d, he was not disheartened. (Cheers.)
Thanks to the Sheriff terminated the procetdings.

THE ATTEMPTED MURDER AT LIVERPOOL—Liver-
pool, Tuesday.—Tbe youngest son of the unfortunate
maniac Gibbons, whose attempted murder of all his
family was reported yesterday, died of his injuries at the
Infirmary last night. The wife and daughter Margaret
are still alive, although on inquiry at the Infirmary there
were no hopes entertained of the former, but the latter
continues to improve. An inquest was held this fore-.
noon on the body of the deceased children, Joseph
Gibbons, aged four years, and Thomas Gibbons, aged
18 months. Th-e prisoner, labouring under temporary
insanity, was not present. The first witness examined
was the eldest son of the prisoner, an intelligent lad of
11 years of age, who deposed to the facts as recorded
yesterday, and added—" I have thought that my father
was out of his mind for some time past, and he is out of
his mind. He would say there were people taking like-
nesses of us. He used to say we would be put in an iron
cage, and prosecuted." Much sympathy is felt for the
unfortunate survivors, as the family were at one time in
good circumstances, and the misfortunes they met
with so preyed upon the poor man's mind as to utterly
deprive him of reason, and caused him to commit the
tragic act.
