The damp limate of the north is as charming when com- bined wit sunshine as it is horrible in the blue days of winter. In February and early March there are such weeks of drizzle and downright © t the dampness penefrates the very flesh and bones. Catarrh, chronic bronchitis that rattles in the cheate of stout old concierges, rheumatism that makes men wince, stiff joints and icy feet—these are special signs of a climate whose acquaintance American tourists make most always in the happy summer time. Paris, in spite of its smartness and modern air, is still, in great part, a city of old housos. In the days of the first Napoleon, to go back no further, builders (though they may not have wrought with loving care) had at leasta good idea of solidity. Stone was plentiful, labor was cheap, and they had a fine formula for cement. Such houses are now almost as expensive to demolish will take bis femily for a Sunday break- fast at some open air restanrant where the at- mosphere seems dangerous to us. The young of the quartier—younz ladies of an humble rank in life are seen to promenade the streets Dateheaded as they love to do, and without their littie jackets. And young ladies of « higher ronk in lize don white and grav felt hats | and live under ground lose the power of vizht sad soft coats of clinging ‘anuel to take their | morning constitutional along some quiet, well- promenade. Ass people the Frenei are given over io routine, which they express by proverbs and formulas for every exigency of life. In the first weeks of the spring they become like Nebuchadnezzar, eating herbs and grasa. Any one who does not they think foolish and ili- regulated, perhaps not well bronght up.

If you feel too to pay @ franc and a half for a few sprigs of aspar- agus, which is indicated for the kidneys, they think you bare no savoir virre. Tar water is another sign of spring in Paris. It is good for the blood. All well-regulated Parisians of a eortain class take tar water in spring time. You find bottles of 1t gratis at many a small restau- rant tabie: and its healing smell, suggestive of a long sen voraze or else « howpltal, gives char acter and tone to bourgeois meals. spring is alsoe time for a merciless use of natural waters, like Hunvadi-Janus; and bot tea to fol- Jow it. with a little rum mixed with the tea, is on In Paris, as elsewhere, the spring is » time for joy and increased animal spirits.

HER APPEARANCE IS THIS CITY AND THE IM- PRESSION SHE CREATED—HER UNHAPPY MAR- BIAGE AND SUBSEQUENT DIVORCE—SHE COULD NOT GET USED To SLAVERY. [#8 DEATH OF FANNY KEMBLE BUTLER removes # personage who has filled a very large space in the world’s history of histrionic and literary heroines. She died at the ad- vanced age of eighty-two, and only a short time before her death the London correspondent of s New York journal spoke of having met her in one of the parks of London, and congratulated her on her health and general appearance. Fanny Kemble inherited her theatrical talent, as for three generations the family had con- ferred honot on the British stage by remarkable talent. The great granddaughter of Roger Kem- bie and granddaughter of Jobn Philip Kemble and the daughter of Charles Kemble and the niece of Siddons eould hard fail to be an actress of distinguished ability. Her appear- ance on the stage was caused by the misfortunes of her father, whose losses as manager of Covent Garden Theater had wrecked his fortunes. ‘To save the theater in his hands she was prepared | for the stage in the brief period of six weeks by one of her atints, Mrs. Whitlock, who had re- tired from the profession with well-earned honor. She made her first appearance at Covent Garden Theater on the 5th of October, 1829, as Juliet in ‘Romeo and Juliet,” her father appearing as Mercutio and her mother as Lady Capulet. Mr. Abbott was the Komeo on the oceasion. SUCCESSFUL FROM THE FIRST. Her success was very great, and from her first appearance the filled the most conspicuous position on the Britith stage. She was the original Julia in “The Hunchback,” and the first night it was produced she gives in her recollec- tions of her girlhood a very graphic account of its reception. Her father, as she says, ‘‘con- nted” to appear in the character of Sir Thomas Clifford, and the author, Sheridan | Knowles, as Master Walter. Fanny Kemble’s talent was not contined to the dramatic fession, her literary ability was ackno in several works, in which she portrays the leading personages of the long period of her | life, and the opportunities she had of meeting the’ most distinguished of the literary and professional world rendered her works very interesting. The two members of the literary guild of whom she speaks most frequently and with the most earnest regard are Sir Walter Scott and Washington Irving. Sir Walter Scott, in his diary on the 17th of June, 1880, says: “Miss Fannie Kemble hat very expressive features, though not regular, and, what is worth it ali, great energy, mingled | with and chastened by correct taste.” He did | not want tosee her wien ehe Beverly, ashe “hated to be made miserable about domestic distress.” He makes frequent mention of Fauny Kemble and her fa:her im his diary, as she does of Sir Walter and ington Irving. Mr. Irving uckuowledges debtednesa to Mrs. Kemble for her kindness to him when be first visited London to engage in some commercial businessand before he had ob- tained hterary prominence, and that kindness he remembered when fame had been bestowed upon him as an author and diplomat. HER VISIT TO THIS COUNTRY Fanny Kemble came to America with her had been in London, Edinburgh and elsewhere. Isaw her at the American Theater, Louisiana avenue, and though a boy I remember her well as Mrs. Beverly in the dismal old tragedy of the “Gamester,” with her father as Mr. Beverly, and subsequently I saw Mr. Cooper and his daughter—afterward Mrs. Robert Tyler—in the same tear-producing tragedy. I” seemed to have been doomed to be present on another occasion when that gloomy production was presented by a distinguished trio—Mr. Hamlin as Leverly, Mrs. Shaw as Mrs. Beverly and Mr. Eddy as Siakeley. ‘The several “points” made by each of these Mrs. Beverlys I remember, but those of Fanny Kemble remain as the first and most impressive. She retired from the stage after her marriage with Pierce Butler in 1534, but returned to public lite as a reader, in which she excelled. No one of the many readers who have appeared sinco her day, male or female. approached her. Her wonderfui voice, her fine conception of the different characters of the plays she read were given with the most extraordinary fidelity. I heard her read “Henry VIII,” and every charactor was por- trayed as I have never seen it on the stage with all the accessories of scenery, orchestra and and properties. AN UNHAPPY MARRIAGE. ‘The marriage with Mr. Butler did not result Lappily, and she obtained a divorce, Mr. Butler oifering no opposition, the plea. Mr. Butler, who was # very large planter, resided in Pi met, and after the marriage she went to one of his planta¥ions on Butler's Island in Georgia, and she was for the first time brought face to face with slavery. Of course it shocked her preconceived ideas, and she undertook some reforms which con incompatibility” being iadelphia, There they ted with the opinions of the citizens of the south and with some of the laws governing that “institution,” and she found her residence so unploasant that she did not long remain. She published her journal of @ residence on a Georgia plantation and her freely expressed opinions in this volume, and her repugnance to receive or use any money obtained from that source led to the separation and final divorce. In one of her books she speaks of having dined with ex-President John Quincy Adams at H.'s in Boston, and discussing the character of Desdemona, Mr. Adam says, said he regarded her end as retributive for having married a “nigger.” My memory of her appearance when I aw her was confirmed by a picture 1 saw of her years afterward painted by Mr. Sully, and the engraved portrait of her by Sir Thomas Lawrence. The portrait was painted, as she says, m her in 1834. Tho plantation on Butler's Island remains us the property of her daughter, the Hon. Mrs, Leigh. At the close of the war between the states an English agent came over ‘o take charge of it, but he rendered himself 0 obnoxious to the returned owners of the neighboring estates that he returned to Eng- land after irying to introduce some unpleasant reforms. To euable Mr. Kemble to retrieve is losses an announcement is made in - the play bill of October 5, 1829, that Miss Kelly, Foote, Mr. T. P.' Cooke and Mr. Kean have consented to perform gratuitously for the peculiar legal liabilities to which Mr. Kemble is subject prevent any alterations in the prices of admission.” His father, who raised the price of Drury Lane Theater, caused the cclobrated “0. P.”* riots whieh almost wrecked the theater. At Mitchell's Olympia in New York any un- recmly demonstration by the gods of the gal- lery was quelled by his threat to raise the prices. Adelaide Kemble, a sister of Mrs. Butler, sang with great success in ‘‘Norma,” “Scmtamide,” “‘Sonnambula” and other operas, but retired early from the stage by « mairiage with Mr. Sartoris. Her son married the daughier of Gen. Grant. WASHINGTON IRVING'S ADVICE. In Fanny Kembie’s recollection of her girl- hood she says when she told Washington Irving that she was to be married he said you will be happy if you are prepared to accept America for yor land here. and don't above all things be creaking door.” What do you mean, she asked, and he cold her his friend Stuart Newton, the American artist who had won fame in England, married an Ei me, but don't expect to find Eng- uglish woman and brought her t0 America, and she led him a very wretched life by constant and disparaging com be- tween things here and there, and by constant fault findgmg with American’ ways, and indeed erything American, until she wore out the patience of Newton's friendsand rendered his life most uncomfortable, and hence was known as “the creaking door.” a name Irving gave her. If Mrs. Butier had followed that advice she would doubtless have escaped » good deal of Unpleasaniness. Speaking of her death with Mr. W. S.- Campbell, who for thirty years filled the consulate at Rotterdam and Dresdea, he said that one of the most brilliant guthorings ne had ever seen was on the occasion of w reading given in Romo by Mra. Butler for some charity. The ball was crowded with all the distinguished people \ f- . : D. C, SATURDAY, APRIL 22, 1893—SIXTEEN PAGES. AUCTION SALES. FUTURE DAYS.
