THE danger to fire which houses at the Gap are exposed to was unfortunately illustrated with a rapidity which was almost appalling early yesterday morning. About half-past four o'clock the matched bungalow occupied by the Hon. C. B. Plunket, Registrar of the Supreme Court, was discovered to be on fire; and the inmates had scarcely time to get clear of the building are it was in full blaze. It was reduced to ashes in less than half an hour, and not one single article of furniture or personal effects was saved. In the face of possibilities, one or two oxtincteurs may become necessary pieces of furniture up the Hill.

J. BALL, Major Pipe. Tax Royal English Opera Company per formed Balfe's opera "Satanella, or the Power of Love" at the City Hall on Satur day. So far as dresses, and properties generally, are concerned, the piece was well placed upon the stage; and, with the ez ception of the small item of blue fire, bearly everything else was satisfactory and pleas tog. The house was probably the best you attracted by the presont ompany; the opers, which is well known and popular, contains some exceedingly favourite atra and sich beautiful: musis; `aud all the leading characters were well filled. One minor part, not qu.to equal to Hamlet In importance, was omitted, viz, that df Arimandes, a king of the nether le gions; bat, excepting the critic of our ontemporary, we do not think balf a dozen of those present know or cared suficiently to note his absence. Although "Satanella" depends much upon spectacular effects for Its suceers, it is by no means a place which will succeed without good acting and good singing. The leading characters were all that could be wished on this occasion; but we do not think that the difficulties of united action were so happily overcome on this ocassion as in the previous opera.

There is no exaggeration, on the other hand, in saying that the last soene of the piece was admirably done-Satanella, Count Rupert, and Lello all distinguishing themselves greatly; and, as was generally romarked, it was a genuine piece of admir. able operatic representation. The next piece announced, as in preparation, is " The Daughter of the Regiment."
