LONDON, Nov. t0.-To-day that por-
ti0n of the ceremonies attendant upon
the Induction to office of the new lord
mayor, Joseph SavOry, which consists
of the procession of escort, was most
successfully carried out. A bright No
vember sun brought out in vivid relief
the brilliantly variegated uniforms and
insignia of the soldiers and civic COM
panles and sent a CLEAN of
dazzling light flashing along the
bayonetS, musket barrels and ar-
coutrementS of the troops. The air
was mild, with just enough of crispness
in the atmosphere to lend springiness
to the steps of the marching column
and produce general feeling OF eXhil-
aratlOn among the enormous crowds nf
spertat' which lined the street through
which Til, column passed. 1hey were
gOod-natured crowds, prompt to admire
any particularly brilliant feature of the
passing show, and equally quick to Jest
at anything which occurred to them as
odd. The "Beef-Eaters" came in for
the unmerciful guying which the APP
pearance OF the antique and grotesQue
uniforms of the guardians of the Tower
invariably evOkeS from London crowd.
The Survivors of the Crilnean war were
warmly received 10y the people as they
YEARLY limped by. In all its details it
is conceded that the lord mayors show
of to-day exceeded that of last year,
both in the gOrgeOnSness of the eXhibi-
tion and the number of the crowd. The
decorations were unusually profuse.
and the American flag was frequent
and apparently popular emblem. In
deed, nearly every banner of the
civilized nations added to the bright
variety of bunting which ornamented
the city's streets. The decorations
are not, however, altogether in
honor of the new lord mayor,
Sunday having been the fOrty-ninth
anniversary OF the birthday of the
Prince OF Wales, an occasion which is
also being observed today. The rich
old city guilds seemed to he OIL their
mettle as 10 display perhaps to show
the new county council that the city
institutions had good deaf of life 10
them yet. Gentlemen WHO had never
turned out before on similar occasion
paraded to-day, and added by their
presence both to the respectability ami
pomp of the OCCASION. 1t was queer to
see a well-known lawyer marching
under the banner of the Skinners, and
a clergyman Fl turing as goldsmith;
but such are the changes which time
has brought about i'll the organization
of the wealthiest companies. The out
go nc mayor, Isaacs, aid the incoming
mayor, Savory, rode in magnificent
coach, drawn by six harses. The new
lord mayor was loudly cheered by
the citizens. He is much more popular
than Isaacs, chiefly because the latter Is
charged with not having upheld suf-
ficiently the dignity of his office,
whereas Savory mas emphatically de-
clared that while he is mayor he will
be the first citizen of London, not in
name alone, but IN fact. The silver
smiths company, to which the new
lord mayor belongs, was prominent in
the parade, and shared in the cheers
which greeted the lord mayor. The al
dermen in their fur-trimmeI rOces. the
servants in pink tights and gay livery,
the soldiers and police, presented a
spectacle that dazZled the small boys:
and the emblematic chariots. including
a pretty young woman as a type of
charity" a feature of the guilds that
they are anxious just now to keep be-
fore the public eye, attracted the usual
curiosity. Excellent order was every
where preserved, and altogether Lord
Mayors DAY. so far, has passed off very
fOrtuuately
