" Charles' iHanbury. (Williams) was born in t7og, and educated at: Eton, where he made con siderable . progress in classical literature ; d, having finished his s,:ndicA,. travelled throUgh various parts of 'Europe.. Soon after his- , return 'he assumed the name of Williams, obtained from ; his father the estate of'Coldbr6ok, and espoused, in 173 z,'Lady FraneiS Coningsby, youngest , : -daughter. of - Thoinas, Earl of Coningshy. " On the death of his father in 4733, he was eleded Member of s Parliument' for . the County of .-I'vlonniOuth;'cand uniformly 4upported the Admini, • stration of Sir' Robert:Walpole, whom he idolized - he received frOmsthat Minister many early and con ? fidential marks 'of esteein„ and in 1739, was ap pointed by him PaymaSter' of the Marines. 'Hs . name occurs only twice as a speaker in Chandler's Debates;.' but the substance of his-speech is given neither instance. . - . - - "'Sprightliness of conversation, ready wit, and agreeable manners, introdneed him to•the acquaintance of men of the first talents; he Was the soul of,thecelo. brated Coterie, of which the, most conspicunusamem, bells. were Lord Hervey, Winnington, 1L Walpole, (late Earl of Orford) Step.

At this - period, he distinguished himself hy'political ballads remarkable 'for vivacity, keenness of inveetive, and - ease', of He did not, however,-confine his satire to politics, but descended into private life : with much wit, and little delic:icy, he wrote a severe lampoon on the marriage of Mr. Hussey, afterwards.

To,avoid a .succession of duels,, by the idvice of his friends, he prudently retired into ~Monmouthshire, though:he did not himself eutertain• serious appre hetiSions of danger. His -absence,'and the interven tion of friends; cooled the anger; of those whom his satire had provoked, ~ gave them . time to- reflea on .the .absurdity' of converting a national iota a per sonal quarrel; and their cause was justly . avenged by some counter lampoons, whiCh ied with his own sprightliness and wit. I ,‘ln i 740 he was instaHed Knight of :the Bath, and soon after lus return to London; appointed En 7 voy to the Court of Dresden ; a mission which his laMpooners,imputed to.cowardice,. bat which he at tributes to a nobler motive; his 'aillittion for The death of his friend Mr. Winnington, which threw him into a 'temporary fit of deep -melancholy, and considerably affected his health., An Epitaph which he composed to:" his written with much feeling, and a letter to Sir Thomas Robinson 'on that event, does honour to his . friendship; am here a good'cleal retired, and in a melan 'chOly way, which . I have been in ever since the death of my friend Mr. Winnington, in whom -my Country lost an useful Citizen, and the( man upon earth I loved the best. 'Tomas upon his death I begged the King to send me'abroad, and resigned a very profitable employment to collie out of a Conn . :. try where I missed an objet that I esteemed and hono red very highly, and where every thing dail put me in mind of him.

He was well adapted for .the office of a* Foreign Mini'. ster, and the lively no lesg than ilie solid parts - of his charader, proved. useful in his. new employ-- ment... FloW of conversation, sprightliness of wit, politeness of demeanour, ease of addreis;'conviviali ty of disposition; together with the delicacy of his cable, attracted persons of all descriptions. • .He had an excellent taste for_ discriminating charaders,. mouring the foibles fof those with 'whom he nego- tiated, and. conciliating those by whom the Great here' either directly or : irldiredly governed., In t 74.9 he Was appointed, 'ar -the express de sire of the King, tosuecetd , MrAege as Minister Plenipotentiary- to the Court of Berlin.; but in't 75 1. returned to hiS etribasV - at Dresden: .paring. his re siderict at these CoirtTi, he transacted the affairs of England and Hanover with , .so much address, that he was. dispatched to Pelersburgh, in : 4 time of critical emergency, . to - condua a negotiation of great, deli. cacy..and- importance. . "SOon after ,iris arrival, at the au: tumn of .1757., he was suddenly smitten wit]; a‘wo, titan of 'id* Inttlgte, gA'tre T, lidtd for icaaai and a contraa of marriage, though . his wift was still li . ving ; he also wok large doses of stimulating medicines, which affeeted his.hesad, and h e was con- veyed. toEngland' in a state of insanity. Du'ring the passage, he fellfroM the deck .into the Bold, and ' l3 ".gerouslY bruised his side'; he was blooded four titnes,on'boaid, and four times immediat6ly after'his arrival England. In a little more than a month he recovered, and passed the summer at.Coldbrook. jiouse. From this place he wrote a letter_ to 'his friend. Mr. Keith, which proves the calm state of his, mind, and breathes the warmth of pa terna l Etc. fediOn z - - By a letter which I wrote to Baron Wolfe"some time ago, and which I don't doubt he ahewed, you have been informed already df the . wretched' state of my health, both at liamburgh and since my reiurn to England.

Three of his pleces,. however, deserve to be exempted from this general charafter ; his -Poem of Isabella, or the Morning, is remarkable for ease' of versification, and happy, discrimination of charaCler ; his Epitaph on Mr. Winnington is written with great feeling,.; and his beautiful Ode to Mr. Pointz, in honour of the Duke o f Cumberland, breathes a spirit of sub limity; which entitMs the Author to- the rank of a Poet, and excita Our-regret that hiS . ll , luse was not always employed on subjeets worthy , of his talents.
