with settlers, on account of' having on board a
greater number of passengers than allowed by

Bq. M. P. J. BUTTERWORTH, Esq. M. P. and

Mr. CHARLES KEMBLE is the youngest of the.
male branches of a family who have been pre-
eminently conspicuous. in the profession which
they adopted ; and the names of Kernble and
Siddons will always be recorded in the histocy
of that stage, which their talents have essentially
supported, and their superior excellence adorn-
ed. Mr. C. Kemble, we understand, was born
at Brecknock, in South Waifs, in 1778.; which
town has the honour of having also given birth
to that distinguished ornament of the stage, his
sister, Mrs. Siddons. His parents had long been
engaged in the theatrical profession, and
.were
equally esteemed for their dramatic talents, and
the propriety of their private conduct. Charles re-
mained under their care until the age of thirteen,
when he was sent for education.to-the college of.
Douay, in Flanders, where his brother John had
been placed many years before for the same pur-
pose. After remaining about three years in that
seminary, in which he acquired a competent
knowledge of the French and Latin Languages,
he retutned to this country ; where his father,-
reflecting on the uncertainty of the theatrical
profession, had determined to procure for him
some appointment of a civil,: or mercantile de-
scription. This destination, however, was little
suitable to his son's inclinations; and conse-
quently, after an experiment of about twelve
months, incited by the success of other parts of
his family, he resolved to try his fortune on the
stage. His talents, at this period, promised to be
rather solid than shining, and his theatrical ambi.-
tion was therefore discouraged by, his parents,-
and his brother. He was a very handsorrie youth,
and his person altogether appeared calculated to
embody the idea of Torn Jones, while, his de-
portment was rather open and manly than grace-
ful and 'engaging. The theatrical impulse, how,
ever, could not be restrained : he quitted Lon.
don, and, we believe, placed himself under the
protection of his brother Stephen Kemble, then
the manager of several country theatres. After
some preparatory tuition, chiefly with respect to
deportment and the business of the stage, for his
own good sense gave him a full perception of
character,,he made his first essay in the gart of
Orlando, iu Shakspeare's Comedy of "-As You
Like It ;" when, according to report, he per-
formed the part with so much judgment and feel-
ing, as to receive considerable applause, and
from that moment his fate was decidedly fixed
on the theatrical profession, and he remained
under the management of his elder brother at
Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and the other places
within his theatrical circuit-. At length, Mr. S.
Kemble, though deriving essential support from
his brother Charles, liberally conceiving that his
talents were-worthy of protection in the metro-
polis, recommended him to the. managers- of
Drury-lane Theatre, where he procured an en-
gagement, and made his first appearance before
a London audience in the humble part of Mal-
colin, in the tragedy of " Macbeth." His classi-
cal attainments-and gentlemanly character soon
attracted the attention of the late Mr. Sheridan,
who saw that his talents were ripening into ex-
cellenee, and therefore gave him due encourage-
ment. The part of George Barnwell was next
assigned to him, and lie performed it with such
feeling and powerful expression, that Mrs. Sid-
dons, who represented Millwood, declared that
she was hardly able to do justice to her part, on
account of the sympathy which his.svell=painted
distresses impressed upon her mind. We cannot
pretend to trace his course through all the cha-
racters which he assumed, and in which he dis-
played such conspicuous merit, that he soon be-
came one of the chief favourites of the public,
who testified their respect for his talents by a
warm greeting whenever he appeared. He was
soon after the hero of the Haymarket The-
atre, and remained there for several seasons,
under the management of the Younger Colman,
increasing his reputation by the truth, force, and
variety of his performances. When his brother
John Kemble quitted Drury-laneTheatre, and
became a proprietor of. Covent-garden, Charles
naturally followed his fortunesl and thOtigh pre-
cluded from the higher range of character's in'
tragedy, yet on several occasions, when he ap-
peared in any of those characters, it was acknow-
ledged that he displayed first rate abilities. But
Mr. Charles Kemble's ppsKers were by no means
confined to tragedy ; for in the genteel and spi-
rited parts of comedy he also appeared to very
great advantage,ancl proved himself to be one of the
best general actors on the London boards. His
Prince of Wales, Falconbridge, and Benedict,
were adin7irable specimens of histrionic truth,
taste, and spirit. His Young Mirabcl, in " The
Inconstant," was another proof of comic grace,
ease, and elegance, that was highly applauded ;
while in tragedy, his Hamlet and Jammer were
critically correct, and deeply impressive. In
fact, no character, as the phrase is, ever " came
amiss to him," arid in all -he displayed the judg-
ment of the scholar, and the animation of true
genius. One circumstance peculiar to hiS style
of acting deserves to be moticed: Though'most
