The National Association held a meeting yester-
day for the purpose of expressing its opinion on
some public questions. It resolved to abide by the
principle of self-support " as best and safest for the
Irish Catholic Church under the especial circum-
stances of her position, and to oppose any project of
investing her with a portion of the Ecclesiastical
State property at present in the possession of the
Established Church." With reference to the Reform
question the meeting felt bound to express its dis-
approbation of the continuance of " that system of
exceptional legislation for this country always pur-
sued when detrimental to our interests, but denied
to us when sought for to our advantage."
The North-East Agricultural Association held its
annual show at Belfast yesterday, in Maysfields.
No efforts were spared on the part of the committee
to make it a success, but in point of numbers it was
not so, the entries, exclusive of implements, being
only 525. The quality of the animals exhibited was
excellent. The riaderpest has greatly militated
against these agricultural exhibitions. The principal
Challenge Cups were awarded as follow : The Ulster
Challenge Cup, value 25 sovs, for one best animal
in the short-horned classes ; age of bulls not to ex-
ceed four years—J. W. E Macartney, the Palace,
Clogher, Tyrone, short-horned, bull, Fitzjames.
The Ulster Challenge Cup, value 20 soya., for the
best animal in the Ayrshire, Polled, and Devon
classes; age of bull not to exceed four years—David
Patton, Trynonny, Glasslough, Ayrshire cow, Lilly.
The Ulster Challenge Cup, value 10 sovs., for the
best pure bred ram in the sheep classes—Chas. P.
Leslie, M.P., Castle Leslie, Glasslough, Leicester
ram. The Ulster Challenge Cup, value 10 soya., for
the best pen of five pure bred ewes of same breed in
sheep classes—Jonathan Richardson, Glenmore,
Lisburn, five Shropshire Down shearling ewes.
In consequence of some alleged irregularities in
the South Dublin Union, the Poor Law Commis-
sioners have ordered the taking of stock in the
workhouse. At the meeting of the Board of Guar-
dians yesterday, Alderman Bousel declared that
during his knowledge of the house, which extended
over 20 years, he never knew a correct return of the
state of the house to be obtained. The matter was
something more than the Guardians themselves
.could investigate personally, and accordingly they
took it for granted that the returns made by the
officers were correct. Mr. Macready was of the
same opinion. For many years a proper stock tak-
ing had not been made, and he believed that the re-
turns on the books were an imposition on the public.
Mr. Byrne concurred in this opinion.
The first annual contest of the Irish Rifle Asso-
ciation terminated yesterday. Mr. J. Rigby won
the Abercorn cup, value 50 guineas, making a total
of 373 points. The other prises were awarded to
Mr. Mahaffy (356), Mr. W. Rigby (346), and Mr.
M'Kenna (346). Compensation Prizes —First Day--
800 yards—Mr. J. Robinson, 50. 900 yards—Mr.
Lloyd, 45. Second Day-800 yards—Major Leech,
50. 900 yards—Mr. Nugent, 45. Mr. Mahaffy is a
clergyman, and a Fellow of Trinity College, Dublin.
At the conclusion of the competition of the members
of the association, the detachments of military, con-
stabulary, and police were assembled in front of the
council tent. Major Leech, who was received with
loud cheers, said he wished to make a few observa-
tions to them on the last day of the competition
which had been so full of the deepest interest to him,
and which in its influence would, he had not the
slightest doubt, prove of national importance. I t was
very gratifying to find that their proceedings had
been regarded as a great success, and although they
might have attracted a larger audience on the part
of the general public, it was satisfactory
to reflect
that not the slightest misunderstanding or accident
had occurred to mar their enjoyment, while the
shooting was of such a character as to inspire the
hope that the Irish team would prove victorious
at the forthcoming international contest. He felt
proud at the success which had attended the first
meeting in connection with their association. He
wished to remark, before closing, that they did not
obtain the services of the constabulary because he
feared any disturbance or annoyance, but in order
-to keep young persons off the ground who might
subject themselves to danger. So far as the com-
petition went the success was mainly attributable
to the zealous exertions of Captain Fairtlough,
Captain Galbraith, Captain Featherstone, and
Lieutenant Thunder. Three cheers having been
given for Major Leech, the company adjourned to
a tent, where several toasts were proposed and re-
sponded to. In proposing " his Excellency and
Prosperity to Ireland," Major Leech referred to
the princely munificence of the Marquis of Aber-
corn in presenting the splendid cup for competition.

"On the other hand, Mr. James Price, the present
managing partner in our Liverpool firm, becomesa partner
also in our London firm ; and we have the pleasure to an-
nounce that we have formed an union withour friends and
neighbours, Messrs. Finlay. Hodgson, and Co., whose re-
maining partners, Mr. Kirkman Daniel Hodgson, Mr.
James Stewart Hodgson, Mr. William and Mr. Charles
Loyd Norman, become partners from this day with us, and
we request you to take note of the signatures of those new
members of our firm who will be resident in London. That
of Mr. Moir, who will reside in Liverpool, is attached to
our circular issued from thence.—We remain, Sir, your
obedient servants,

Two O'CLOCK.

The market for the English Funds opened very
quietly this morning, but have since shown more
activity, and a rise has taken place in Consols of
for money, and per cent. for the account. The
latest prices are therefore 948 for money, and 94f
for the account.

The New Three per Cents. are 931 ; Reduced
Annuities, 931 ; Bank of England Stock, 2541
255 ; and Indian 5 per Cents., 109.
Many of the dealers in the Foreign Stock
Market have commenced closing their accounts,
previous to taking advantage of the fine weather,
and business is very dull. Italian are 49 lex divi-
dend ; Mexican have receded 1, to 161; Spanish
Passive j, to 23j j ; Greek 11, to 14i- 4 ; but
Spanish Certificates continue at 14j j. ; and Turkish
5 per Cents. at 331 f
In the Railway Share Market depression has
again prevailed consequent upon a preponderance of
sales. Great Western, Midland, and South Eastern
have each receded f ; Brighton, North Western,
and Metropolitan each 1 ; and Great Eastern 2.
The Foreign and Colonial lines aro also a shade
flatter. Great Luxembourg are quoted 11f ;
Dutch Rhenish 201 ; and San Paulo 161 171 ;
East Indian 1071 ; Great Indian Peninsula 106 k
107 ; and Bombay 1001 f.

American Securities continue inactive. United
States 5-20 Bonds are better, at 721 ; Erie
Shares at 43 -1 ; while Illinois have declined
to 79 f.

Bank shares are very quiet, and in most instances
support previous values. London and Westminster
arc dealt in at 102. 103, and Union of London at
42.

Miscellaneous and Finance shares are very in-
active, and the few dealings entered into have
shown no material change in value.
