Tamberlik had a farewell benefit at the Royal Italian Opera

on Wed- nesday, previous to his departure for Rio Janeiro. He will be succeeded by Mario; who, it is expected, will make his appearance next week. Tamberlik, nevertheless, will be missed; for there is a range of charac- ters, demanding great vocal strength joined to great tragic powers, in_ which neither Mario nor any other tenor now on the stage is able to supply his place.
