THE Ait.VlY AND NAVY.

(From tho United Service Gazette of this day.)
THE L otTE COURT-MARTIAL AT WHEEDON.—The
Judge-Advocate-General has made his report to her
Majesty a t Balmoral respecting the courts-martial
recently k ield at Weedon, and a revision of some of
the procef ;dings will be directed to take place.
ARMY OFFICERS DECLINING THE BREVET.—A
practice has existed of permitting officers to be
passed over in brevet promotions, in order to enable
them to 'retain official situations. The Committee on
Army Expenditure is decidedly of opinion that more
of inj us',ice than of advantage must arise from this
practicf and recommended that it should be abolished.
We he artily concur in this suggestion, and trust that
it ma:r7 be carried into effect.
RO FAL MILITARY SCHOOLS AT CHELSEA AND
Dun LIN.—It appears from the Report of the Commit-
tee on Army and Ordnance Expenditure, that they
consider these schools a great boon to the soldier, who
knovrs that, should he fall in action, or be wounded,
or ptrmanently lose his health in the service of his
country, his child may find a refuge and receive an
education which shall fit him to make his way in the
world.
