Mr. Hamblin, the celebrated Tradge-
dian, made his first appearance before the
Augusta Public, in. the character of roll a,
on Saturday night last. The audience
was large and respectable, and gave the
actor the most flattering evidences of their
approbation. Of Mr. Hamblin’s style
of acting, we copied a description from a
late Charleston paper; but descriptions are
meagre—none can equal the animated and
splendid original.
Mrs. Monier in elivra excited the
3ost favorable anticipation of her powers ;
and we are well assured from a respect.i-
blo source, that the impression, in favor
of her professional merit, will be heighten
ed by a knowledge of her amiable private
character
tongues
bout bis virtues, were dumb, or used only
in the bitterest censure and condemnation.
We have always entertained our present
sentiments on this subjpet, but have been
at a great loss to account for that wonder
ful mental illusion in others, by which the
man whom they represented as the despo
tic violator of his country’s laws, and as
black as a demon, should now be seen by
them only in the splendid habiliments of
an angel.
It has not been more than eighteen
months, if our recollection is correct
since the editor of the Chronicle was
so undetermined on this subject as to
refuse to pledge bis paper to support Gen.
Jackson, and solemnly called the public
attention to the fact. We would scorn to
pry into his motives for so doing—much
less ascribe to him the desire to ascertain
which was likely to become the strongest
s.de in Georgia, or to continue a little
longer the enjoyment of the governmental
printing and patronage. The cant of
'■'hireling presses,” &,c. has never found
i s way into the modest & decent columns
tf the Chronicle.
Our chivalric friend, not content with
j lie tilt he has given us, has turned his
j my gratitude for your Kindness; my pride
at your commendation. It is not often
that the aspirant in the arduous profes
sion I have chosen, can escape the buffets
of adversity—much less (besting of“ bad
report”—and least of all, the unsparing
lash of criticism.
If, haply I have experienced but a small
share of these evds in the city of Charles
ton, it is because fortune has placed me
before an indulgent and enlightened audi
ence. The duty of ;he Player, if consci
entiously and ably performed, is to shew
how, in the language of the great Drama
tist, he may best illustrate those inspiring J
scenes which “ hold as ’ttvere the mirror
up to nature; to shew virtue.her own fea
tures ; scorn her own image ; and the very
age and body of the time, his form and
pressure.” He is unworthy of his voca
tion—lost to the noble objects of the Dra
ma—lust to the calls of honorable ambi
tion, who does not enter on the profes
sion of an Actor, with the determination
never to remit his studies; never to turn
aside from instruction ; never to disgrace
his calling by careless indiffei ence; never
to forget that he slaudsthe enlisted cham
pion of taste, of virtue, and dramatic truth.
Ladies nnd Gentlemen:
1 am not accustomed to address you,
except in fictitious characters the Dramat
ist has Hi awn, and which it has been my
lot to personate in your presence. In
|hese f your gener.’us reception jffiall nev-
f'/he obliterated fiom ray bosom. In
my personal character, as an humble and
grateful individual, permit me to thank
you cordially, sincerely. I come from
that country, of ihe same language, man
ners and religion as yourselves; with
whom, in the words of an illustrious A-
m«iican, you are‘enemies in war; in
peace friends !’
Accept, L.ciies and Gentlemen, the
grateful acknowledgements of an English
man—who, amidst lhe kindest treatment,
private as well as public,experienced in
various cities of these happy and United
States, has especially to thank his stars
for the reception he has met with from
the enlightened and generous citizens of
Charleston. Wishing you longlife, liber
ty and happiness, I most respectfully bid
you all Farewell, ”
During the delivery of the above, Mr.
Hamblin was often interrupted by ex
pressions of approbation, and he retired
amidst thunders of applause.—Mercury.

In the limited notice which we are Adi- tor,iW ? ***** all the “ malignant

we cannot forget Mrs. White in cora.—
In a character well adapted to excite im
passioned feeling, the part lost nothing of
its natural effect for the want of an anima
ted and judicious representation. We
cannot go into details, but must say, in jus
tice to those whose merits we cannot par
ticularize, that, in general the evening’s
performance was well sustained, and cer
tainly presented more that lively and bust
ling appearance, which, by increasing the
resemblance to real life, gives its principal
juierest to theatrical exhibitions.
