PRoGREss.-The old custom OF
law of purchasing commissions in
the British army, has been abolished
by a royal warrant. It went through
the House. of Commons in the shape
of a bill, but was defeated by the
Lords. Gladstone then obtained the
warrant abolishing the custom from
the Queen. This is a step towards
republicanism, because it gives the
poor as well as the rich an opportu-
nifty for promotion in the army, ac-
cording to merit, which before they
did not have. England advances
slowly but surely. When she be-
comes a republic she will not be apt
to fall back into an Empire. The
English republic, if it ever comes,
will be the result of the steady and
enduring growth of the British
Constitution, founded on the wisdom
and fitness of its people for 'selfgov-
ernment, and not the result OF the
incendiary teachings Of pseudo-poli-
