CONIENT-dARDn. 7 . The new drama which was brought fohvard last night at this Tne,it re; under. the title of Kamichaika, attraoed'a very numerups audience. It is avowed ly'.-derived fr . om a play of ,KoTictituk, which has been so much admired in Gertuany,,that it is sotue what extraordinary that, Lib previous atteinpt had been'made to introduce it on. the English Stage, considering the fame which the original author once possessed in this country, particulailv after Pizarro and The Stranger..

' The fable of this play is so ,well known that it is by no means nee. ,‘sary to detail it. Mr. C. KEMBLE, we understand, is the author of the drama of last night, and he has with too much diffideme adhered to the original model, for otherwise Are good• sense and taste, whiCh lie has shewn on former oc casions, would doubtless have enabled him to shape his adaphtion of it to the English Stage in a manner morelikoly to excue interest and sympathy i n a British audience. .But if Mr. Kltll4lll,E has not done much to improve the original, he has Certainly not im paired any of its merits. f-le has Maintained. the vigour which always marks the sentiments of KOT zanuc, and , ha's taken from their expavagance and affeelation. The chief charader, Beidowski,, is drawn with great strength, and his much of the heroic cast. It is to be rejetted that he was not rendered as moral as he is eneigetic. StepanotT is a genuine illain, yet he has some excise fur his violence and artifice. Betijovski,in attaching Athan-a. sia, though he was mat rice!, is an object that cannot be esteemed, yet we do nut agree wiA) several of the diurnal Critics in censuring his lea King her abruptly, as he would have augmented his emmor in rendering her the 'partner et his flight, consi dering his situation and domestic •ties. The plot is altogether far from being destitute of interest ; on the contrary, it takes a strong hold of the feel ings in many of i ts' passages. It was somewhat adventurous in Mr. C..Knini • • to bring this play on the English Stage, as , it was in" part a mark for the very pleasant ridicule which The. iinti-Jacobin Examiner has so ably thrown upon the German School of dramatic literature.— The English Author, without essentially froth his original, has contrited to divetsiiy the piece by the' introduat.ion of some characters of a comic description, particularly a kind of Cossack Officer, which is properly assigned to LI , TON. The piece is elso enlivened by some very pleasing and appropriate muile, composed, by Mr. T. WALSH. The Performers in general deserve high prais , par ticularly YouNo, Mr, C. KEMBLE, BArtuntotre, and FAWCETT. Mrs. C. KENIIILE 14) is a powerful support to it. LISTON also lenders his char3cier dkerfingly conspicuous. The scenery is Weil-con., trived, considering that it-could net admit nwch va 7 riety. Sortie of the viemi,are b.frld, an d hi g hly pi e - Voraique. The songs are written with ease, and Mr. SINCLAIR( performed his part in ih,th very ably, though he is rather too decoraiivv. piece had many friends, but it had also enemies, who made a powerful noise on the conclusion; but the generaLseotiment was obviously in its favour. The following is a specimen at the poetry "My beech-clad hill, my native vale, Where peace and virtue reign, I bade ye oil in misery, hail I And Fancy snarled my pain. She shcwid . me Federownes bowers, And lea me duo' their shades With her, the sweetest of the how'rs, A lair, but cruel maid." .

Mr: E DITOR , --On looktag over aottiO OM papers, found one which was Written in the Year 1746, and_ as I observe. that yob take p articular notice of the actors of the present d ty; I conceive that your Readers may wish to know some t h in g of their pre decessurs, and have tl.erefore sent you the follow ing letter, which appears to be 'characteris'ed by good "sense an&candour, and is the more intere,ting as coming from an Actual witness of the talents vsliich he describes. What he says of actors, besides, ttiatiOnal and' literal. If I should discover any g more among my old stores which May 'afford amusement to your Readets, I 'shalt have pleasure in submitting it to them. OLD CORRE.§PONDEST. ".One of the Managers resolved this winter to take a step, which, it he had knOwn or understood his true interest, he would have taken long ago,-- That was, to engage all the principal actors to play in ,one house. The only thing that could possibly prevent him from doing this before, was the high salaries at which they rated themselves ; and in my :opinion. not unreasonably : For while the - revenues 'of the stage are merely an *fair of private etriolu mem, I do not see why the, eminent players . should be condemned for endeavouring to Share in the large profits arising from the company they bring ,toge ther.. However, Rich has,noW come up to their prices ; and has by: this means got Quin, Garrick, Mr s.'Ciliber, and Mrs. Pritchard to the mew house. The consequence has tmen, that the stage was ne ver, my - memory, so fashionable; not even in the time of Mrs. Oldfizld's higlieSt fame. A good taste both of acti n g and of plays themselves, is much more gcueral than l e ver expented to have seen it ; and those who are skilled in such matter's tell me, that Rich. will he a greater piner this - 'season than has been known for these many years; and that, too, without the assstance of a'single dancer. In.short, lie- has put the Opera out of countenance, and even endangered the empire of Whisk itself. " I remember, when you and "were last in town together, some years ago, we were eternally repin ing at the wreti fed ,Condition of the stage. Csoin W 49 then at the head of his fraternity ; but a very ditferent man from what heis at present, and merely a 024 copy of Booth; With all his motitning'and pa. gealory, but without his musical elocution, or his . dignity. Wiletimnime or emulation has had the greatest hand in improving him, I know not ;: brit vertaiii it is, that he is improved beyond what ybu w ill really imagine. He has gut much more variety and much more spirit. Be was always a tolerably just speaker, but then he was hardly anything Inure; he recited rather than acted. In this, Indeed, he resembled his predecessor Booth ; and in my opt- Mon he still retains too much of the dimp rotundity Of his proirunciation,•ano the furttlat deliberate sway of tits motion. But I have lately seen Linn do some things ist:3!ragedy more in charaeter, and eithgreat er strength and passiort than I everterneruber Bootl I have no ie , .heen him do any thing in comedy but feisteif, Where I assure sou he %anis n o thing, atid has tiredly thing too much. • " for Garrick, he has given me. so many new ideas in aitittng, that I am not sure you will .under +nand what I now vs site to, on, till you b`iVe seen lie had no master, and it was better fur him thathe had none; fur by that means he escaped the drudgery of copying his • meter from any other: player, whieh hardly ever succeeds well ; beceose faults are more easily,arnitated thin excellencies.— He ij 'wit so good a teener as Quin, hut a better player ;' and though, when you tire much at leisure to attend, he dues not satisfy your ear so well, yet in srrcng touches he affects your passions. mere. He dries not in later tragedies apeear to half a lie ad vantage as in Shakespeare ;• probably because our modern poets abound more in description and des clamation, and have fewer of those strokes of, pas sion, which are astonishing and yet natural. His action 'is art excellent comment _upon Shakespeare; and with all the pains which yon have taken with yotsr favourite author, yo do, not understand him so well, as'if you knew the aupplemental,lights which 'Garrick throws upon him. fie sometimes puts rue iii mind of what the wits of the last riga used to say of Benerton, and what our neighbour old Mr. Le-- So gravely brings out in company; that he was born to kit what Shakesperre.was born to write : yet I fancy there must be a good deal of difference be tween them ; and though Garrick cannot have so much of that sedate masculine dignity, yet I question whether even .Betterton was so terrible or so mov ing. " Mrs. Cibber's province is tragedy; • and there . 1 think She is incomorably the best actress I ever Save : more elegant and engaging than Mr 4. Porter, and much more passionate than Mrs. Oldtield. Site excels in the softer distresses of tragedy : but there are some very sOrited charatters in which she has at least bes, as Much admired; Mrs. hate:hard perhaps you remember, before she, had greatly dis tinguished herself. She is one of the Jestest and niost graceful speakera I ever heard ; and if she has not so much passionate expression as Mrs. Cibber, yet she Flays rather truer; so as never to . offend you. Sue excels in comedy as well as in tragedy. " I have often wished that a little care had been taken by the Legislature to hatlf our playets ptii upon a beuer footing, both with respect to their private lituation, and with respect to the public. la for mer times, when plays were a mere holiday gam but in the King's household, and players pretty, nearly upon the same e,tablishinent with the liing's fool or jester; their legal character was proper ecough. But now that they are become ministers . of the most rational entertainment to a whole nation, free and mighty 'nation, who, pay them for their services, methinks theysnonld be looked on as 'cut or servants of the public, and as vested with a public trust, rather than as instruments of private pleasure. By this means we should have a Mach bettet chance than at present, to leave the Theatre vile possessed with the virtuous and magtianituoes ttentituetits of the Poet, without an allay to that plea sure, from reiltisaing on the despicable characters of the per,ollo who had impaired it.
