d Alderman W. A.
Rose, who was elected in 1855, will be presented, and Sir H.
Muggeridge will be the Lord Mayor for 1861.62. The other
aldermen who are "below the chair," and who, having
served the office of Sheriff, are eligible, are Mr. W. Law-
rence, Mr. W. S. Hale, Mr. H. S. Phillips, Mr. I. Gabriel,
Mr. J. J. Mechi, Mr. E. Conder, and Mr. J. Abbiss. As
the Lord Mayor for 1861-62 will in all probability be
created a baronet at the opening of the international exhi-
bition, it is rumoured that there will be some departure from
the usual course of election on the 28th inst., and that the
present Lord Mayor (Alderman Cubitt), will be put in no-
mination for the election. In the event of the livery re-
turning him in conjunction with any other alderman, it is
generally understood that the Court of Aldermen will select
him for another year of office.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT MILE-END.—Yesterday
morning, between twelve and one o'clock, a destructive fire
broke out on the premises of Mr. J. Russell, tobacconist,
29, Globe-road, Mile-end. Notwithstanding the exertions
of the firemen, who promptly attended, the premises were
destroyed. The cause of the fire is at present unknown.
The loss will fall on the Phconix-oiace.
