La Favorita" is deservedly one of the most popular of all Italian Operas. Its combined musical and dramatic merits are probably un- equalled, excepting by Verdi's great masterpiece "La Forza del Destino," and in many respects Donizetti's brilliant music bears away the palm. The draniatic construction of "La Favorita" is cual if not superior to any opera of ancient or modern times.

Last night's representation of "La Favorita" will live long in the memories of Hongkong opera goers. It was incomparably the finest operatic performance ever seen in this Colony, and well deserved the appreciative plaudits of the most enthusiastic audience that ever assembled in the City Hall.
The rather sombre but impressive character of the opera, both as regande dramatic incidents and music, although presenting far greater diffi- culties than the attractive arias and pleasing scenes of works of a lighter class, admirably suited the capabilities of the principal artists engaged. signora silini's powers as a contralto singer and operatic actress of high class have her previous impersonations, Azucena in “Il already received just commendation at our hands,
