As his elder brother James was confirmed as 9th Earl of Southesk in 1855, Carnegie received the precedence and the style of an earl's younger son.

He entered the British Army as a 2nd lieutenant of the 23rd Regiment of Foot (Royal Welsh Fusiliers) in 1850. Three years later Carnegie was promoted to a lieutenant of the 27th (Inniskilling) Regiment of Foot.
