Mr Rose was scarcely in voice, and consequently the number allotted to him, which wai the well known air from " Trovatore," " The tempest of the heart," fell somewhat il-itly. Madame Morley eang "Mia Fernando" excellently, and Signor Morley was warmly applauded for the well worn cavatina, " Come into the garden, Maud," and responded to a unanimous encore.
