Volunteer Items
«~ The Manchester Rifles will parade for inspection on Thursday next. Full dress. The Commandant of the Forces recommends that the torpedo boats at Lyttelton and Port Chalmers should be dismantled and brought to Wellington ; but the Minister of Defence says that no action will be taken till Colonel Fox's report on the defences of the colony is received. The Minister of Defence says the New Zealand Volunteers are not part of Her Majesty's land and sea forces. It would be interesting to know, then, what they are. Every Volunteer who joins makes oath that he will serve the Queen.
