tion in those schools be limited to the terms conformable
to the Church of England.
VOLUNTEER CORPS.

Lord VIVIAN, referring to hisspee;ll on this subject,
delivered a few evenings ago, said it was scarcely
judicious of the Government to pay adjutants for volunteer
corps, and not pay drill sergeants. It was of the greatest
importance that good drill sergeants should be se-
cured, and he ventured to ask his noble friend
(the Earl of Ripon) to reconsider his determination on the
point. He thought the services of the volunteers would not
become permanent without the Government acted in a more
liberal manner towards them.

The Earl of RIPON said he was unable to give the noble
lord any other answer than he had given on the evening in
question. It was the intention of the Government to mass
the different corps into battalions, but flat force them to
come together for battalion drill. In the event of their being
called out for active service, it would be necessary to form
them into battalions, and for this it was advisable to orga-
nise them into battalions, and government intended to ap
point a paid adjutant to each battalion, which the Govern-
ment thought was the best step they could take at the pre-
sent moment.
