GISBORNE.
January 9. Mr. Sheehan and Sir George Grey addressed the natives yesterday. A large muster took place, and many speeches of welcome were delivered. Mr. Sheehan, in replying, told the natives plainly that they might give up all hope of competing with the pakehas as an idle dream unless they mended their ways. He urged generally the importance of education and temperance amongst them. The Hinemoa left for Wellington about midnight.
