OPERA HOUSE.

Mr Hardlng's Benefit.

The popularity of Mr Charles Harding was evidonced on Saturday night by the throng of people which filled the Opera House on the occasion of his benefit. Both stalls and pit were crowded to excess, and oveiy seat in the dress-circle was occupied. The pro gramme was an unutually long onp. It commenced with the second and third'acts of " Tlio Bohemian Girl," included also the second act of "Maritona," and wound up with the last act of "La Fillo de Madame Angot." In addition to all these morccaux, there was the presentation (of which we shall speak anon), and Mr Harding's ren dering cf "The Death of Nelson.' Tho bandit was marked by a popular enthu siasm which h almost without precedent in local tlioal: iu.il annals. From tho opening lit the pet 'irmanco until its tardy close, the favourite f tho hour waa enjoying a pro nounced vation. In every song ho was applauded to the echo, bouquets rained down upon him in tho utmost profusion from all parts of the house, and the good fooling of his confreres of the lyric ttige was symbolised by tho graceful presentation of a laurol wreath by Mies Gracie Plaisted while the opera was under performance. MissPlaistodand Miss Liddinrd also shared in tho popular regard, and bore off the fctage, from time to time, armsful of floral tributes. It certainly detracted greatly from tho realistic effect of the operas to see the dramatis pcrsoucv scoop ing up flowers from the Stage, dexter ously catching them in their arms, and uncomfortably holding them until they had an opportunity of K°'ng off to the wings. This, by the way, however. After the finale to tho second act of " Tho Bohemian Girl" there was a brief pause, the reason of which was immediately ox plained by the entrance of His Worship the Mayor from the right wing. In full view of both audience and performers he walked up to the beiieficia'm, and addressing him, aaid, 4i Mr Charles Harding—-Your fellow-citizens of Auckland hearing that it was your intention at the completion of the tvesent engagement to proceed to England, have deemed this a suitablo opportunity to present you with an address testifying the high esteem in which you are held, and ex pressive of their hopes that your career may be attended by the greatest success. As Mayor of the city, 1 have been deputed to present that address, and as an old citi zen I very warmly undertake the duty. The address is as follows : —

Auckland, November ?4,185j. Charles Hard ing, Esq., care Messrs Wilton and Mujeroni'o Opera Company, Opera House. Auckland: Dear Sir.—On behalf of a few of your many Auckland friends and well-wishera who highly appreciate your value as an artist in addition to your many othur qualilicatious, wo would bog your acceptance of tho accompanying gift as an earnest of their goodwill and a souvenir of their atl'ection and regard towards you. Wo hoar with undisguised pleasure that you aro contemplating a professional visit to Knglsnd, the r«ault of which we sincerely truat will bo greatly to your advantage. As a colonist of New Zealand, more particularly as a rcßidont of the city of Auckland, where you have laboured so arduously in the pasc, you have our O3teem, and we ato i specially gratified and sincerely congra ulate yon upon the position you havo ai hiaved on tho lyric atagc. and trust that your career aa a successful artiet may loug continue Io conclusion, doar Mr Harding, you have our heartiest of good wishes for your future wel fare, and may you long bo spared to wear tbo accompanying testimonial.—We havo tho honour to remain, &c. [Hero follow the signa tures of the subscribers J

His Worship then produced a handsome gold watch from its case, and went on to say —" In presenting you, Mr Harding, with this watch I am sure that when you look upon its face you will live over again, in memory, the many pleasant associations of this evening. You will recall those who aro assembled here this evening, and see again those smiling faces, with tho assur ance in your heart that whatever your .suc cesses may be none will applaud them more heartily and sincerely than the citizens of Auckland. May your most sanguine ex pectations be realised in your professional caieor. (General applause, in which the performers warmly joined.) Mr Harding, whose emotion was ovi deuced by the trcmour in his voico, said : "Mr Mayor, ladies and gentlemen, I thank you most heartily for your splendid gift and complimentary address. I cannot speak much, but I will sing as much as possible. (Laughter nnd loud ap plause.) "All that 1 have to say is that 1. thank you most cordially. I shall always look buck with great pleasure upon my residence in Auckland. Whatever suc cesses I may have, they shall be all the more welcome if tlipy me regarded with satifaction in dear Auckland—for it is a dear place. (Applause.) 1 shall do my best and work my hardest to be an honour to Auckland and to Xew Zealand. ■ (Gene ral applause.)
