A general meeting of this a.eociation was held this afternoon, at Willis's Rooms. Lord Hnianer of L►.t, president of the amociatioa, took the chair shortly after 1. Among those present were Earl do Grey and Ripon, Earl Spencer, Lord Ekho, Lord l%by, and Mr. W. 11. Bodkin, tc. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, said it would not he necessary fur him to make any remarks on the object of the associatias ; but he must at the outset congratulate the meeting on its success. When they assembled that time last year meetings for rifle shooting were almost un known in this country. The Wimbledon meeting had privet entirely satisfactory, although the expense had I unavoidably exceeded what was anticipated. lie believed it was good policy to incur that outlay, as the effect had been to give a great impetus to rifle competition throughout the kingdom. lie trusted that they would this year again have the advantage of the use of the common at Wimbledon, which had now become to them classic ground. As regarded the future, he hoped that the forma -1 county rifle associations connected with this National Association would be carried to a much greater extent. There were already in amociatioa with them Cheshire, Gloucestershire, Yorkshire, Dumfrieshire, and possibly Berkshire and Devon. (Cheers.) The colonies were also being connected in that way with the mother country. The silver medal of the society was to be open to the com petition of colonists. He then enumerated the prin cipal eontributon of future prizes, and observed that the new once included the Prince of Wales, who would give a prize of 100/. The number of members of the association was 1,548, 348 of whom were life members. That number was, in his opinion, not at all satisfactory. The Royal Agricultural Society had 4,600 members, and he saw no MKS why their list should not be equally large. (Hear, hear.) It was the interest of agriculturists to till tho land as well as pos sible ; and while the object of the Royal Agri cultural Society was to some extent a clams one, that of this emaciation was entirely national. (Hear, hear.) When he acceded to his present office as Minister for War there were only 13 volunteer corps, numbering 1,500 men. There was now a corps fur every volunteer at that period ; there were 1,500 corps, and 140,000 men. (Cheers.) lie should always recollect with pride that it was during his tenure of office, though mainly awing to the public spirit and patriotism of hie coantrymen, that the volunteer movement attained each vast dimensions, and that so formidable an addition was made to the defensive force of the country. Ho concluded *stating that his Royal highness the Duke of Cambridge bad consented to be the president of the association for the en s/Wag year. Tbs statement of receipts and expeeditwe from the formation of the emaciation to Oct. 10, 1460, was then read.

Kant COCNTY RIFLE AzOWN'IATION.—It is pro posed to form a rifle association for the county of Kent, on the model of those already established in Cheshire, Loam shire, and other meatise, for the purpose of giving perma nence to the volunteer movement in the empty, by bringing the various artillery and rifle corps into closer connexion, by melting to provide ranges fur rifle practise, and for giving prizes for competition. The principal noblemen and gentle man, and the talkers of the various corps throm,Mout the county, have promised their active support, and the Lord Lieutenant, Viscount Sydney, hiss consented to take the chair at a public meeting, to be held at Maid stone, ou Saturday, the 2:tril instant, for promoting the object. A provisional committee has been formed for the purpose of taking the necessary preliminary steps, amengst whom are the following inansetial gentlemen : William Nadel, Faq., M.P. fur Fast Kest, Col reel of the Fast Kent Yeomanry, Viscount Holmentale, ]f.

Tien RATS STORM IN THE Lars DISTROTt4.—Tbe dorm of Baturthiy lad, the Pth February, was severely felt in the Lake district. The wind driving the snow into the gullies caused greet anxiety to the shepherds, who sallied forth to endeavour to rescue their buried flocks. Mr. John Itirkett, who resides at the City, in Wythlitern, left his house, accompanied by his Lean,to look after hie sheep. T hey toiled through the driving snow sod sleet, at times almost lifted off their feet with the wind. Their absence at length mused uneasi ness, and part of his family, along with some neighbours, set off in search of them. They at length found a hay bag, end soon after heard a feeble voice, which proceeded from the man, who had just strength left to speak ; on giving him a little r um , b e so f ar revived ea to walk hale with help ; but where was Mr. Birkett? After a further search they found him quite speechless, and, but for slight movement of his eyes, to all eppareexe deed. They carried him home and had to cut his clothes off from hien, his limbs having become so stiff they could ad heed a joint. A doctor was immediately sent for, and we are happy to any he is in a fair way of recovery. Being • men advanced i n years, it is wonderful bow he escaped. From all we ran leam, more sheep have been buried than for some years past, and until milder weather thaws the snow, the extent of the lose will not be knows. An agree that such a severe storm has not been experienced for years, and the 9th of February, 1861, will be lug remembered.— Kendal Mayor,. Ax INCA-NI/WIT COnir.—A letter from Frail wee to the NatiOnt says :—" Count Trapani is Teddies to incendiary measures. On Thursday evening, about dve "'clock, he repaired with his wife and two other persons to porta sada On arriving there they went into the country. and, at • sertain distance from the main road they placed certain ingredients on the ground, int* which, after loading their pinkie, they fired. At each shot these ingredients took line. Ow* out • quantity of smoke as if etniw were tinning. - The pistols, therefore, most have been bonded with something that kindled whatever it touched; the meet. eountem and their two oompanioes, were making an experiment.

The funds to-day are not quite so firm asies tertlay. A decline of i per cent. has taken place. Little business is going forward. The other de partments of the Stock Exchange are inanimate, but steady. At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Reuter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes opened at GBfr. 15c., being i f per cent. better than they closed yesterday. The scrip of the New Indian Loan has been dealt in at 1001 to 1, being steady. Consols are officially marked 91i and 1 for money, and 92/ for the account. The pre sent quotations are 911 to for cash, and 92, " buyers," for the 7th March. The official business report is as follows :—Bank Stock, 239 ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 911, 3 ; New Three per Cents., 911, 3 ; Thirty years Annuities expiring in April, 1885, 16 ; India Stock, 220, 222 ; ditto, Five per Cent.

Mexican bonds are steady, at the late improve ment, and so are likewise the Spanish Coupon Certificates. The Turkish loan of 1864 is quoted 691 to 701, and that of 1838, 56 to 1. Sales are recorded as follows :—Brazilian Old Five per Cents., 991; Dutch Four per Cent. Certi ficates, 100* ; French Four-and-a-Half per Cent. Routes, 97fr. 50e.

Consols exhibit a fractional reduction, compared with the prices current at 2 o'clock. The present quotations are 911 to I for money, and 911 to 92 for the account. The public, who have suspended judgment upon the policy of the advance in the Bank rate of discount to 8 per cent. until this week's return is before them, will find little in it tending to explain the step. There are no alterations but those which were generally expected. From the activity of the demand at the Bank it was known that the private securities must have increased considerably. The increase proves to be 793,9881. It was also known that, as 400,000!. in silver was purchased from the Bank at the close of last week for exportation to India, there would be a decline in the bullion. The fact that, in face of a decrease of only 261,8041. in the bullion, and a decrease of only 72,4291. in the reserve, the rate of discount has been raised from 7to 8 per cont.—a point un precedented, except on two occasions, in the history of the Bank—is calculated to increase the public surprise. The Bank directors are said to have taken alarm at the idea of a resumption of a flow of gold to America. Their policy will probably be severely criticised in nearly all quarters. The con solatory feature is that the extraordinary tightness in our market will, in all likelihood, determine a flow of capital hither. Already the continental exchanges have responded in rather a marked manner. The provincial advises report general surprise at the rise in the Bank rate of discount. There was a meeting yesterday of the representa tives of the joint-stock banks and discount esta blishments, when it was decided to make no altera tion iu the rates allowed for loans. Messrs. Dent, Palmer, and Co., have advortiaed the dividend on the Turkish loan of 1858, and Messrs. Gibbs and Bons that on Anglo-Peruvian Four-and-a-Half per Cents. . . There were no 'transactions in bullion at the Bank yesterday. The Tentonia, from New York, has brought 1,8801, in specie. Subjoined is a list of the ships known to be on the way from Melbourne to England with an ag gregate of 621,6001. in gold : the Clutha and Champion of the Seas have larger amounts than previously mentioned, additional stuns having been placed on board : Gold on hoard.

The rates in several instances are now approaching a point at which capital will be attracted to this country.

The Grand Russian Railway Company have issued a circular inviting subscriptions for 200,000 bonds, of 500 francs (2014 cash, bearing 20 francs annual interest, to be issued at 365 francs per bond, and redeemable at par. The Liverpool cotton market yesterday was very inactive and heavy. The Eastern Counties Railway dividend was officially announced yesterday at the rate of only 21 per cent. per annum, with a surplus of about 5,0001., against 3 per cent. per annum at the cor responding period of last year ; and the South Devon Railway dividend at the rate of 2 per cent. per annum, against 11. 13e. per cent, per annum last year. At the half-yearly meeting yesterday of the Peel River Land and Mineral Company, the directors' report was agreed to. It referred to the satisfac tory state of the live stock, and to the prospect of more than an average wool clip, with an adequate supply of labour for shearing it. This was not a dividend meeting. It is stated that the negotiations for a contract for the carriage of the French mails to America by the Galway Company's vessels are so far arranged as to justify the expectation that a satisfactory conclusion will shortly be arrived at. The Caledonian Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of 1,0041. The directors of the Chartered Mercantile Rank of India, London, and China have declared a half yearly dividend f 5 per cent. free of income-tax. The directors of the East India and London Shipping Company have intimated that the first steamer, the Indiana, will leave the Victoria Docks on or before the 10th of May. The London colonial wool sales are fixed to com mence on Thursday, the 28th February.
