NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION PRIZE`i
MEETING.

In the observations which were made in yester.
day's impression on the competition for the Queeii's prizes
it should have been stated that Sergeant Graham. of the
tad Wilts, made within a single point u many points as
were mode by the wii.ner, and had he only effected a tie in
the last shot in point of numbers he would have been de.
dared the winner, inasmuch as he obtained more paints in
the lower ranges.
The business of yesterday embraced • new prize, called
"The Albert," a cup value 100 f., or 100/. in money, at the
option of the winter, presented by the National Rifle
Auociation. The competitors for this prize to be confined

three-fifths of the remainder to form the second prize, and
the remaining two-fifths to form the third prise, at distances
of 200, 500, and 600 yards, five round, at each distaaoe.
The following are the final arrangement& sato those who are

" Wednesday, July 15, 1863."

These prima are offered u rewards to the volunteers who
have been engaged as markers at the butts during the
meeting, and doubtless will excite a warm competition.
The running man wu yesterday again extensively
patronised, and although a great many shots were made at
him, yet the bull's-eyes were confined to comparatively few.
At six o'clock the following is a list of those that were
made :—Captain Webb, Hereford, 2; Major Nightingale,
2; G. Wilkins, Gth Aberdeen, 2; Captain Herbert,
Coldstream Guards, 3 ; Lord Haddo, 1; H. Redd, 1 ; W.
Hunt, god Flint, 1 ; and E. B. White, 1. .

The Albert Prize was the great feature of the day, and
excited the areateat amount of interest. The shooting at
SOO yards began with much spirit, Lord Feilding distin-
guishing himself by making 25 points ; Lord Bury, 25 ,
Captain Heaton, 25 ; and Captain Greg, 27th Cheshire, 25
Sergeant Martin South, Victoria Rifles, 24 ; Ensign Brazil],
61st Lancashire, also mad* 25 pivots. The next range was
I equally well conte.ted, Sergeant Martin Smith making 26
points. and Ensign Brazill, 24. The third nog*, however.
at 1,000 yards, was reserved for the period of the a:latest in
which the greatest interest was to be concentrated ; and
while it was going on some most excellent mores were
mho. The leading one was made by Ensign Brazil', and it
stood at 70 points tioally ; but at one period of the competi-
tion it was necessary that Sergeant Martin Smith, who hod
made the next highest score, should make nine to tie in
three shots. Be made up his mind for the effort that was
required, and made three bulFaeyei is succession This
made his total wore 73, and thus he became entitled to the
prise, winning in the most triumphant manner, and receiving
the congratulations of his friends.

Mr. Jannea made 71 pointa for the Association Cop at
200. 500, and 600 yards ; Sergeant Winner, of the 3rd Kent,
made 70 ; and Corporal Dunne, of the 7th Kent, made 47
for the Rifle aika.

It is believed that the Prince of Wales will attend the

bridge on Saturday next.
