OPERA HOUSE.-"Moths."

Hamilton's unauthorised dramatisation of Ouida's novel, "Moths," was performed last night before a large audience, by whom it was vory highly appreciated. In faot, the Company appear in it to such advan tage, and tho interest of the play is so well sustained, that it is a pity Miss de Grey reserved its production for the last night of the season. The success'of the piece was.heigh toned by lime and magnesium light effects, which were produced by Mr Dennes from one of the wings. At the close of the performance Miss de Grey, in a neat little speech, thanked the public for their patronage, and an nounced that if tho steamer by which she intended to leave were delayed, the Company would appear again to-night. It happens that the Wairarapa does not leave till to-morrow, and accordingly " Moths " wilt be repeated to-night. In taking leave of Miss de Grey we cordially felicitate her upon tho artistic and financial success which has marked her performances, and alao upon the high merit of her own imper sonations. She is a cultured and graceful actress, loving her art for its own sake, and careful to eechew aught that is vicious or degrading in tone or sentiment. With regret we bid her farewell, and cordially wish her continued advancement in her profession.
