MAYORALTY AND MIND.

Well done, my Lord Mayor ! —having feasted the Cits
With protmiion as gre,t as the taste was refined ;
You have turned a new leaf—and have come to your wits,
By drawing around you the Masters of Mind !

Full oft as those balls have been splendidly filled
With the great of the land in their titled array;
Yet never before has the .Mansion-house thrilled
To the echoes cl genius so grand as to-day.

Al things melt away in the rust of regret,
Your jovial companions break down in their prime;
Though bright was their vision of nothingness—yet
The pen is the weapon that eats into time!

By the light of the sun we entered your halls,
And ertjo)ed Hospitality b •undlras, as warm ,
Whi:e musiie ascended those lofty, proud walls,
An i gave to the scene a heart-stirring charm!

But pleasure like glory departeth too soon,
It flies ere we prize its inspiriting glow I
And how many before us have left with that moon
That shone su resplendent but where are they now?
Time-hoLour'd they sat in those halls—but what name
Reflects on mine host the proud honour he gave—
If feasting were glory, then Mansi,n.house fame
Would excel in its virtue the deeds of the brave.

But banquets like these are as fleeting as grace
Which hallows the dinner—but caunot convey
One ray of renown to the Lord of the place
Beyond the brief honours that pass with the day.

You may feast, my Lord, Duke, till your festivals pall
On the wealthy and proud,—feast each eloquent sense
Of your STANLEYS, and RussaLLs, and PzEts—after all,
What are they ?—what will they be fifty years hence ?

Such feasts find no favour in Memory's roll ;
They live not like that which this day hath enshrined ;
A feast paid to Genius ennobles the soul,
While delighting the world with the progress of Mind

Long may Science and Art pay their court to the Mayor,
With freedom and commerce to thrive by his side ;
Let the slaves of ambition and mammon-craft stare—
We can stoop to despise, while we pity their pride I

Then honour to Duke ! for his excellent feast,
Where the noble in fame with true genius combined
In reciprocal feeling to welcome each guest
That came with his art to illumine mankind !

of Templ.-man, on Thur,dty last, in the race hir th.

in the last two or three strides by a very short bead ;
Sisyphus being sceond, and Cora, who ought to have
won, 13,2 at, n a neck from the winner.

Sweetheart justified my selection, by winning the.
July Stakes in a very easy manner; Impression jur,.
contriving to save h« r owner's stake by a nick Iron.
Cranburry ; Tordesillas was, as I expscted, gum
enough to obtain the third uriourtn place, being Taal
a b-ngth behind Cranberry, but not good enough to win
either due race or the Derby. -
The defeat of Chanticleer, at 9't Sib, for the Cumber-
land Plate, at once disposes of his and Coilingwood's
chance for the Goodwood Stakes,
Liverpool once more claims my attention, with a list
of twenty races for the three days. This is quite up
to the mark, and if the present glorious weather con-
tinues, we may anticipate a first-rate meeting.
The Sefton Stakes, value about 1301., will %ot be at-
tractive enough to induce Mr. Green to pull out his very
superior St. Leger mart', therefore I shall look to Ciga-
rette to pull me through. •.. _ _

Dutchman,the field is included in the following:—
