THE VOLUNTEERS IN HYDE PARK.
The following instructions for the Volunteer force
to be assembled in Hyde Park on Saturday next
have just been issued by the War-office :
The Volunteer force, of which the attendance in Hyde-
park on the 7th inst. has been sanctioned by the Secretary
of State, must assemble there by 2 p.m. on that day.
The several squadrons, batteries, and battalions will pro-
coed to the Park right in front, and enter by the gates spe-
cified. as follows :

All infantry corps coming from Paddington and west of
the Marble•arch to enter the Park by the Victoria-gate, and
the enclosure by the west entrance.

Infantry corps from Euston-square, King's-cross, and
Shoreditch stations, and from north of Oxford-street and
Holborn, and from the Tower Hamlets, to enter the Park
by the Marble-arch, and the enclosure by the north entrance.
All other infantry corps, and the whole of the cavalry
and artillery, to enter the Park by the gate at Hyde Park-
corner, and the enclosure by the south entrance.
Only battalions which are completely formed will be per-
mitted to enter the enclosure.

All bands must cease playing on arriving at the entrance
of the enclosure ; and on reaching the ground set aside for
the assembly of the troops, the force will be drawn up in
two lines, the cavalry and mounted batteries of artillery
being deployed, and the rest of the force being formed in
contiguous quarter-distance columns right in front.
These lines, one facing the east and the other facing the
west, will consist of the following brigades, arranged from
right to left in the order here indicated :
Line facing East.—Cavalry Brigade, Artillery Brigade,
Ist Infantry Brigade, 3d Infantry Brigade, sth Infantry
Brigade, 7th Infantry Brigade.
Line facing West.-Bth Infantry Brigade, 6th :Infantry
Brigade, 4th Infantry Brigade, 2d Infantry Brigade.
As soon as the whole force shall have been thus formed,
the columns of infantry will be deployed into lines four
deep, each company during the deployment closing to its
leading flank.
The ranks will not be opened, but the officers will take
post in review order in front of the line. As the procession
passes between the lines the infantry will present arms by
brigades in succession, a band of each brigade of the line
facing the east being told off by the Brigadier to play " God
Save the Queen" and the " Danish National Hymn."
As soon as the procession has quitted the ground the in-
. _ .

fantry will reform quarter-distance columns right in•front,
and close to intervals of six paces on the right battalions of
brigades.
The brigades of the line facing the west will then advance
until they are abreast of those of the other line, when the
battalions will change front by the wheel of subdivisions
round the centre, and halt so that the whole force will form
one continuous line.
If time will permit, the force will then march past the
General commanding.
For the purpose of leaving the park the battalions which
entered by the Victoria-gate will retire 50 paces, halt, and
front ; and those which entered by the Marble-arch will
advance 50 paces and halt.
The force being thus ranged in three lines, the several
squadrons, batteries, and battalions will leave the Park by
the gates through which they respectively entered, moving
