Description	Queen Victoria wishes that her Equerries (including the Clerk Marshal) should "not be in Parliament" in order to avoid the necessity of "their changing with changes of Government" and therefore asks Earl Russell to agree to making these appointments non-political. The Queen wishes to retain Lord Alfred Paget (instead of appointing General Charles Grey) as Clerk Marshal, and also approves the appointment of Sir Henry Storks as a Privy Councillor.
