THE NEXT LORD MAYOR OF LONDON.

Sir R. W. Carden stands next on the order of
of rotation for the mayoralty of the City of Lon-
don, but there appears to be some doubt whether
he will not be passed over by the livery, and thus
lose his chance of the high honour next year. It
is the practice of the livery to return to the Court
of Aldermen the two senior members of that body
below the chair—that is, those who have not served
the office of mayor—and with the exception of one
or two memorable occasions the aldermen have
selected the senior of the two thus returned. The
difficulty with regard to Sir R. W. Carden is not
with the court but with the livery. Some time since,
when the Beer Bill was under consideration, Sir R.
W. Carden, who is a warm advocate for, the introduc-
tion of the Maine Liquor Law into this country, made
some remarks which highly incensed the licensed
victuallers, through whose instrumentality he was
passed over at the last election, when according to the
ordinary course he should have been returned by the
livery to the Court of Aldermen in conjunction
with Alderman Finnis, the present Lord Mayor.
If the threat which has been held out should be
carried into operation at the forthcoming election,
and Sir R. W. Carden be passed over by the livery,
the two aldermen who will in all probability be re-.
turned, being those next in rotation, are Alderman
Wire and Alderman Carter, in which case Alder-
man Wire will be Lord Mayor for the ensuing year.
No doubt there will be a most determined effort on
the part of Sir W. Carden's friends to prevent the
non-succession to the highest dignity the City of
London has to bestow. The aldermen below the
chair and who are eligible for the honour of the
mayoralty are (according to succession) as follows :
Sir R. W. Carden, M.P., Wire, Cubitt, M.P., Sir
H. Muggeridge, ennedy, and Rose. Four alder-
men, Lawrence, Hale, Phillips, and Gabriel, not
having yet served the office of sheriff, are not yet
competent 'for election to the civic chair.

Sporting Intelligence.

GOODWOOD RACES.-TOESDAY.

Seven of the thirty events appointed for decision were
brought to an issue to-day, and the instalment of sport
was sufficient to heighten the expectations which are en-
tertained of a great and successful meeting. Wednesday
and Thursday are the principal days, and they will sus-
tain the prestige which has attached to them almost.
from the establishment of the meeting. The southern
and northern stables are fully represented. From John
Day's alone there are 21 horses, while I. Scott has sent
11, J. Dawson 8, J. Osborne 6, Wm. Day 7, and Mr.
Merry 9. Indeed, at present about 200 horses are in
the neighbourhood prepared to fulfil their respective en-
g3gements, and to that number France has contributed
five, and America two.

liTerning, Bognor, and other t3wns along the Sussex
coast are crowded with visitors, and as ususl a large
number of distinguished persons are being entertained
for the week at Goodwood House.

The morning was dull and stormy; but, as boon ap-
proached, the forebodings of a " wet Goodwood" were
gradually dispelled as the dark clouds rolled away and
the landscape brightened.
Tipp list of sport cnnprised no item of unusual im-
portance, and the racing was of an average first day's
quality. _ . .

con-iderably, the takers of the odds speculating on a
breakdown, for the infirmity of Fazzoletto was notorious.

last those odds were reduced two poiuts, and during the
race even money was betted, and in some instances the
mare bad a decided call. Minnie led, and forcing the
pace to the best of her ability was anon upwards of 20
lengths a head. Fazzoletto gallopped behind her until
nearing the distance, caught her half way up, and won a
desperate race in by half a length. After passing the
chair Fazzoletto swerved to the left, and was led, limp-
ing back to the enclosure. The horse had broken dow n
badly half a mile from home, and bad evidently won the
race on three legs. His racing career is now ended.

Naval and Military inteingeact.

In consequence of the large number of Marines
proceeding to China, the Lords of the Amitalty
have decided on removing the battalion of Royal
Marines now stationed at Deal, under the cam-
mand of Lieutenant John Gascoigne, and a' taching
them to the Chatham division. The whole of the
officers under orders to embark for China, and who
are now on leave of absence, nave received orders
to join their respective head-quarters.
The fine clipper sailing ships James Baines,
2,515 tons, and the Champion of the Seas, belong-
ing to the Black Ball line of Australian ships Pal-

on board the 42d Highlanders, under the command
of Colonel Cameron, filled up to the number of
1,000 men by head quarters of the 97 Foot, and
the latter with the remainder of the 97th,
filled up with a wing of the 42d. Lady Cameron
and several other wives of officers will also embark
on board the James Baines at Portsmouth. The
James Baines will be towed to Portsmouth, and as
far afterwtrds as may be deemed advisable, by the
new steamtug Resolute, which arrived for that
purpose yesterday at Liverpool, and the Champion
of the Seas will go out in tow of the steamtug
Blazer.

Her Majesty's paddle steamsloop Barracouta, 6,
Commander Fortescue, arrived at Spithead yester-
day afternoon from the China station and the Cape
of Good Hope. She left Hong-Kong on the 19th
of May, " all hands piping hot for a demonstration,
and complaining of the Admiral's delay in passing
the word." She arrived at the Cape on the 3d of
June, and left on the 9th. While at the Cape she
had very bad weather, heavy gales from the north-
west being prevalent. At Table Bay six vessels
went on shore on Monday the 7th ; one with a
general cargo struck at her anchors, and had six
feet of watt rin her at sunset. The amount of pro-
perty on the beach was 5,000/. No lives were lost.
Eleven of the Cape boats were lost, and 6001. was
refused to take off an anchor. The Barracouta's
boat nearly foundered in making the attempt.
After leaving the Cape she experienced a tremendous
gale of wind from the N.W , which, however lasted
only about ten hours. She arrived at St. Helena
on the 22d of June and left on the 25th.
