THE HISTRIONICCLUB.
This society gave one of their usual monthly per-
formances at the St. James's theatre, yesterday evening,
when the favourite comedy of the Heir-at Law, and
Charles the Second were presented by the members to a
crowded audience, being for the benefit of Mr. Palmer,
the stage-manager, who sustained the part of Dr. Pan•
gloss, that glorious compound of oddity and pedantic
self-sufficiency with considerable success. The vulgarity
of old Dowlas, made still more apparent by his elevation
to rank and dignity, afforded Mr. Peters an excellent
opportunity for display ; ho seemed to revel in the
coarse humour of the whilom chandler, as contrasted
with the ludicrous attempts at good breeding on the
part of himself and his helpmate Deborah. Kenrick was
quaintly and happily rendered by Mr. Knight, with a
rich brogue and quiet power, that brought the old ser-
vant into a prominent position. Mr. Ogilvie's Dick
Dowlas was full of ease and spirit ; with considerable
good taste ho brought into strong relief the livelier
portions of the dialogue, and subdued those
parts, where the superabundance of sentiment is apt to
pall upon the taste of a modern audience. Miss Hill's
Cicely was a carefully finished picture, both in dress and
expression, of the warn -hearted yet simple country girl
that the dramatists of Colman's school delighted to draw.
In the afterpiece the principal interest centred in Mr.
Kiddie's vigorous delineation of Captain Copp. To say
that this gentleman was eminently successful would be
to render him but scanty justice, as he pourtrayed the
burley, honest, old cruiser with a finish, and point rarely
achieved by an amateur; we can with safety assert that
sinco the time of Fawcett, the original representative of
the character, it has never been better suatained than by
Mr. Kiddie.
