Edwin Forrest at Home. ‘ ■ 1 [The following graphic sketch, byadistifi guished Southerner, gives such uninteresting account of the private life and heme of our distinguished fellow-citizen, that we', cannot control the desire of publishing it—although it evidently was not intended to have;been read except in the social circle, which'the writer’s talents and acquirements greatly adorn.' —Ed. Press,] i PianAnstMiA, Jnly 12,1860. . I left St. Louis more than a month ago, and after pursuing my way, finally’ reached Philadelphia. HaviDg visited -moot ot yoar public places, and enjoyed the luxuries of the Continental Hotel,! looked oter my letters of introduction, and, among others, found one presenting me to tho kind acquaintance of Mr. Edwin Forrest. I deliberated a long time whether I should use it or not. Jty*S»writteu by one ofhis old friends—one wh6 had known him in his poverty and in his prime— shared his griefs as a strolling actor,**ftffparhcW patedin his triumphs as the great master of the American stage. But',' somehow or other, my mind had beccme impressed with the idea that Mr. Forrest was morose and hypercritical • little disposed to open his heart to those who liked him, and stillless willing to extend a wel come,to a stranger like myself. But I had seta Independence HalljGirardCollege.Faimimiit, and the Mint; had visited your great'sqtmnrr had enjoyed a ride over your unequalled city railroads, and had generally collected enough Information to fill half a dozen.columns of the St. Louis Republican —all relating to the fe sonrees and population, aud the Characteris tics of Philadelphia; and finally,' bne' doll afternoon, I concluded that the next morning I would run the risk, aud pay a visit io Edwin Forrest. . r i 1 was directed by the agreeable chief clerk of the Continental to'iake the Fifteenth-street car until I came to Master street, which 1 ac cordingly did, and about half past nine o’clock in the tnorniDg I arrived at Mr. Forrest’s'resl dcnco, which is situated at the corner of iHu ter and Broad streets. It is a large, sutatan tial building, with a brown-stone front, ttielot of which extends, I should- say, about one hundred and fifty leet on Broad street, and running hack some two hundred feel. [The house itself presents a (rout, of some fifty, and:has a depth of one hundred and' thirty live feet. There is an air of comfort an£ in dustry about it that displays the presence .of 1 emalo thrift and attention. | 1 rung the bell,' andwas soon adtaittedhy a servant girl, who received my car# and litter, and carried them to Mr.'Forrest. She returned for answer that he was at home, but, in his garden, and requested me to follow-her. . 1 did so, and found the tragedian in tjie space behind his house, busily engaged witch ing the operations of some men he' bad’ em ployed who were cutting his grass. . I knew him instantly. He was bareheaded, and wore a long, light morning gown. The >flusjr of health was pn his cheeks, and his step was as firm and elastic as when I last saw him jjtay Othello on the boards of the St. Louis Theatre, 1 confess 1 was snrprised to see him looking so well. He has endured much misfortune iu private life. Flattered on the one hand, and persecuted on the other, I expected to see him utterly broken down, but I wax both grati fied and astonished to notice that he locked more like a man oi forty-five, than like; one' who had passed over half & century on this World’s tUS»c===|==k- , ? —arcssitfid .me kindly, nssg, * _ excuse for Ms occupatien.taßtea to me aS.JT the weather,‘ask*d'tae hqjr I liked Fhlliiew phla, and said;.id a'laughing way, ‘-I am, In some degree, a bachelor;-but if you will come with me to my library'we will sit down land talk about our mutual friends, and learn to know each other better.” I.was pleased with this frankness, and, fol lowed him up a broad flight of stairs into Mb library, which is a splendid roojn, extending the whole depth ot the bnildtng, and occupied, at a rough estimate, by about fire thousand volumes. lie motioned mo to an oasy chair, and wo were soon immersed in a busy conver sation about the people of St. Lonis, the growth of the city, the crops, and everything that could properly enter into a discourse be tween gentlemen who had jnst been introduced to each other. Excusing himself for a] few moments, his temporary absence enabled* me to take a rapid glance of the room in which I aat. CORDIAI, The books wero those of a thorough-bred scholar. I found Shakspeare in every possi ble variety of volume, from the oldest editions to the latest—from those printed long, long ago to those which havo only lately appeared, gaudy In fashionable type and expensive pic tures. Ono feature particularly arrested my attention, and that was an old placard in an an* tiqne frame, hnng over one of the mantels, In scribed as follows: “ Mr. Sherulan will sptak at the dost of the poll." Here was the tribute of the great American tragedian to the great English dramatist and orator. I almost devoured the old English type in which this placard was printed, andre called the magnificent scene in the trial of Warren Hastings, as described by Macaulay, when the dramatic advocate prosecuted the great millionaire of India as a public ill-doer. Mr. Forrest’s library, lrontmg on Broad street; and looking from the west over his fine lot, has every appearance of the retiring piaco of a great mind. The books seem to bo in con stant use, and in the course of conversation with my host, I soon learned that he was well acquainted with most of their authors. He makes no pretensions to scholarship, and yet it was not difficult to perceive that although nearly entirely self-edncated, he had gleaned a vast amount of knowledge during his inter course with men and books. Ho speaks French exceedingly well, and can lay his hand upon any authority in that language or our own with surprising readiness. On his return I vory soonfound.a key to his regard by referring to the writer of the letter I bflro f o him, and beforo many minutes he ta sted mo Into his bedroom, fof tho purpose ol showing me, as he laughingly said, 'exactly how ho lived. Over the head of his bod is a fine picture of Shakspeare, and every picture in this room is dramatic, and all by first-rate artists, either painted or engraved. I noticed Mrp, Siddons, George Frederick Cooke, Le kain-r-the gfoat French actor—Garrick, Ed ward Kean, Join) Kemble, Conway, and I was pleased to see, also, old James Wsilaplj. «Oome,” said Mr. Forrest, <> come with mo, andlet me abow you my paintings.” We de scended to the first story, where, in a room exactly the size 01, the library, I found bis collection of paintings. Here, again, I bad another insight into Mr, Forrest’s character. The same order, cleanliness, and care, tbat seemed, by some invisible agency, to preside over the whole household, was signally appa- rent. He threw open the windows, back and front, and allowed me to enjoy a cursory glance at bis pictures before describing them himself. My eye was first attracted by tt)P face and figure of a Napoleon, and cailipg his attention to it he informed me tbat he had recently purchased It in New York, and that it was the production of a foreign artist., I do pot kpow when I have etcr bpefi go much im pressed as by a view of this picture. Tbo ar- Itist has given us Napoleon just at the period when ho discovers tbe burning of Moscow by (he Russians, in his room in the Kremlin, and Is watching the awful conflagration. ' la order to give yon an Idea ol the scene which has been delineated by tbe artist, I copy the following description lrom tbo, History. of tbe Expedition to Kussia, undertaken by tbe Emperor Napoleon In the'year. JBI2,As writ ten by Count Philip de Segur i <* While «iuf troops Were yet straggling with the ' sonflagrotton, end dlipaUngtinjr prey with Ute . flamer, Napoleon, wheee sleep none bed dared to . dlstarb during the night, wu awoke by the two- fell light of day and of the burning city. . HUflrit fwllnz was that of irritation, and he. would have .Itajrea th« devouring element by the brfistk of his bomtnand, but he soon paused, and yielded to 1m- WoestbilUy. Surprised .that when he had strnok at the heart of an empire he should find there any other sentiment than that of abjeot. submission, ha felt himself vanqqlehed, and surpassed in heroio determination. . “ This conquest, for which ho had ssorifieed erery thing, was like a phantom whloh ho had ‘eagerly pnrsned, and at the moment when he Im agined he had grasped Ithesswltvanlsh from him ■in a mingled mass of smoke' and fl.me. Ho was 'than seised with extreme sgitatlon; he seemed, ei it were, consumed by the fires which Were around him. He rose every moment from his seat, pacbtl to and fro, and again sat abruptly down. Be tra versed, his apartment with harried steps; his sud den end vehement gestures betrayed a painful no-' easiness; he quitted, resumed, and again as snd .deniy abandoned an nrgent ocOnpatton, to haaten ,to .the windowa and. wqtch the progress of the Borneo. Short and vehement exclamations burst from' hts laboring bosom.. 1 What a tremendous spectacle! -It Is their own .wprk! So many pa laces.! ' Whst extraordinary resolution! what men 1 These are indeed Spy thlans!’ ” ; The figure of Napoleon appears to be larger than lift, approaching what artists call the he roic size. Efe isstanding clothed in his mili tary uniform, with a fun coat \ thrown over his shoulders j his three-cornered hat at his sldo and,, tin : expression •of .pain,■ and grief, ( juid amazement upon his’ lace, whieh no pen can faittiijtlly describe— only, the painter has caught those inlngledcrnotidna, and trans ferred them-to rthe immortal canvas.' The resolute and sxed jaw,. the firm.compreßsed month, the eagle eye,, the t’paie ■ agony on his’forehead, the thin hair—itself indicative oi the idea that his dream .was ‘Passing be fore him, to nee the expression of Count de. Segur, “in a mingled mass of’smoko and flame.” The hands,iwonctorful In the sensa tions they express, particularly: that with which he .holds’ hack the heavy curtain, and glares down upon the burning city—altoge ther constitnto. such a picture as makes the Observer hold ' his breath with admiration and awe.’ It is an original production, of which there is no copy in this country. But let me pass on. Among the other chefs d’ccuvres of this noble collection is an original “ Holy Family,” by Andrea Del Sarto, a splendid composition, suggesting to -the poet and to the man of taste a thousand delightful recollections. An original Mnrillo, represent ing a « Spanish Troubadour,” and'several copies of other great Works of the same mas ter. An original Carlo Jiaratti—the -old Italian of Mercury giving Cupid to Venus; one by Kothermel—the liaising of the Cross on the Mississippi—by Do Soto i one by Leutze—« Why don’t He Como”—Leutze being, the author of the fine picture of Washington Crossing the Delaware; one from tho pencil of Jan Steen,'a Flemish painter of celebrityone by our famous Mount—two boys fighting, tho, younger, fire in his eye, telling the taller and stronger “ to fight one of his own size.” A Bketch of Lear byßothermel. ' I 'waßiglad to hear thabyour opulent towns, man, Jpgfiph Harrison,.Esq,,:had paid Mr. Bothermel twentyrflve hundred dollars for a full sized Lear, taken from Forrestla persona- tion of tliaf great character, and giving his likeness,* This picture has . obtained a world wide reputation, and within tho last two years Hr. Harrison has purchased another, on the same subject, by the Belgian artist, Wittkamp. Both may now be seen in the gorgeons gallery of this enterprising Philadelphian, at his resi dence, on Bittenhonso Square. There is a Sub production of Gnercino, of “ Charity with Infants”—Charity being repre sented by a beautiful, full-formed, healthy wpmah, suckling two infants, with another asleep upon her knee, and still another cling ing about her neck. There is a head of the great dramatist, Morton; one of George Fre derick Cooke, by the illustrious Leslie— whose delightful memoirs Dr. Shelton Mac kenzie so interestingly reviewed a few days ago in Tub PKzas—presented to Mr. For. In Tragedienne-, painted by Jan*' fjjuart, dahgtft ter of Gilbert Stuart, the Revolutionary artist —which lady is still living in Bos ton ; - also, the last picture began and finished by Stuart himself—being tho head of Mr. Forrest; a large painting of Christ in the Manger; one of the famous Nell Gwynne, the beautiful mistress of King Charles the Second; an American landscape, by tho celebrated Doughty; a fine illuminated engraving of the death of Queen Elizabeth; a head of old Jef ferson, grandfather of the young Jefferson, now playing in New Tork with such distin guished success; a portrait of a child, by the unrivalled Elliott, at this day roputed to be the finest portrait painter in the world; the painter Washington Alston in his library, by D. C. Johnson, of Boston, a most espressivo deline ation. Two of the main features in the gallery; are the well-known figures that for forty years oc cupied the front of the old Ghestnut.Btroet theatre, and were bought by Forrest when the 1 heatre was demolished. jThoy were carved in wood, by Rush—a self-taught Philadelphia ar. tlst, who would have been the master of his profession, had he lived—and are claimed to bo wonders of their art. Mr. Forrest takes great delight in describing them. There aro, besides, pictures ol Henderson' as Falßtaff, Garrick in one of his best characters, and others. Among the busts in this room, I noticed seve ral of-Mr. Forrest himself, presented by the sculptors i one of Webster, one of Burns, also of Byron, Milton, Napoleon—a very rare one by Canova, of Alfierl, the great Italian poet. There is also a screen, formerly belonging to the King of Holland, on copper, representing Ariadne and Theseus, Dmdalus and Arcahuß, and Proserpine, surmounted with exquisite sketches of ancient arohit ecture. I also noticed a flue view of Fonthill, the property lately owned by Mr. Forrest, and now in the possession of the Sistcrstol Charity of Mt. St. Vincent. They purchased flfty-fivo acres, leaving to him about thirty, which it is said, will now command os much as he paid for the entire property some years ago. Alter the sale of Fonthill, to these Catholio ladies, Mr. Forrest made them a donation of five thousand dollars. There are many other objects of interest in this room which I have no time to describe. In the hall there is a figure clad in complete ancient armor, kept burnished as bright as sil ver ; and the dining-room contains a number of characteristic and appropriate illustrations. In the reception room, on the lower floor, are three flno portraits, intended to convey Mr. forreat’s ovyn idea of the sword, the pen, mm} the voice of the Amerioan Revolution— namely, Washington, Jefferson, and Patrick. Henry. Thero is also a splendid likeness of Andrew Jackson, of whom Mr. Forrest is a worshipper, having known him in life, and shared a great deal of his confidence. Over the mantel is the family picture of the mother of the groat tra gedian, singularly resembling her gifted son. In tho hall, up etairg, hetween the library and tho sleeping room, thero is a picture of a dog, to whioh Forrest called my attention. « That dog,” said ho, « followed me for many years through the Wost, when I was a poor actor, without money or friends. I loved him as if ho had been a human being. Many a time, while on a tramp, would I Bit down op a hot afternoon by the sido of the road, and en joy my humble meal with him, and I am not ashamed to Bay that he was my co-actor in •The Dog Of Montargis,’ in which I took the leading part.” Hr.' Forrest llveo like p gentleman, and without being ostentations, is evidently a most hospitable and liberal entertainer. He is a closo student, rises early, and devotes much of his time to the cultivation of his grounds. From what I observed, I take him to be a very thorough businoss map, and I have been informed, by those who know him, that he manages his uwn affairs with great regularity and care. Host of bissuccef# in life is doubtless due to his wonderful professional triumphs i but he,has increased ( hla means by careful and fortunate- Ho owns a property at Covington, Kentucky, opposite Cincinnati, which he bought a number of years, ago, and which has. vastly “ appreciated,” and will be come immensely valuable Iti the course cf time, He is also the owner of considerable property in New York, and must be largely interested in United Statessecttritles. Should he finally fail in the suit 'pfosetnted with such extraoVdlriary animation and acrimony by Mrs. Sinclair and her friends', it need'not be antici pated that it wilTgreatly embarrass Mm. , Mr. Forrest lives' with the only surviving members of his family'—his unmarried sis lers—ladies of great worth, and warmly be loved by a large circle of friends. In con versing witn him.l discovered that ho had not' entirely abandoned |he idea, of reappearing uppn the stage. He is in such fine preser vation, and, looks so well, his voice ,is so fall, round and,c]ear, and his interest in the pro-' gress of theatricals so animated, that I do not see how he can resist yielding to.the general expectation that he should resume his profes sion. I understand' that a number of the leading citizens of- Philadelphia, headed by Mr. Joseph Harrison, have frequently ex pressed a wish that he should content to the proposition to give a series of personations of* his great characters, ■at yonr Academy of' MuMo. If this eonld be accomplished, iij con nection ■ with. a well-selected compiqy, ft would'doubtless attract continuous ’ertwds,' andfreno l&fc naftifes in-' terested; than Instructive to the conimiiiyity large. - ; - I made no allusion, during my visit, to Mr. Forrest’s personal troubles—not, indeed, that I feared ’he wonld bo indisposed to speak of them, because,; he evidently feels ag grieved at the. manner in wMch hi? op ponents have, conducted their side oi the case, bnt because it might seem intrusive in a' stranger to open sueh a conversation, In politics (everybody .talks politics now) Mr. Forrest volunteered his opinions, and- with great candor and clearness announced himself a Douglas Democrat, exhibiting as thorough a knowledge of the difierenco between the various political organizations as many of those who profess to know more. I had heard of him in the South as an ar dent friend oi Southern institutions, and I was not, therefore, disappointed when he asserted that one of his reasons for supporting Judge Douglas was because he believed him tJ be. a warm and devoted friend of the constitutional rights of the South. I perceived, too, that much of his attachment to Dongias grew on l of tho fact that both were « children of the people,” and that he gloried in the brilliant career of tho Senator from Illinois—probably because it resembled his own—Forrest having reached the highest position in his profession, and Douglas the highest in his, against every conceivable and inconceivable obstacle. Ho laughingly said, during IMs part of our interview, “ I have always been a Democrat, was born in old Southwark, and now live in Spring Garden, where I have many old friends —numbers of whom were schoolmates and companions in my early life. They are! very kind and partial to me, and are now asking me to become a candidate for Congress, but I;have no ambition in that direction, indeed, I doubt, whether, even If elected, I' could take; the. place, and I more than doubt if the party managers wonld allow me to be nominated, be? cause I happen to be attached to the| for tunes of «the man of the people,’ Stephen A, Douglas.” Altogether, I was so delighted, and so pleas ingly disappointed in my visit to Mr. Foijrest, that I have concluded to send yon these rough notes. If I have any regrets at all, ft is that yonr townsman and friend should not make himself more familiar with tho people. Hp has his faults, (who has not?) and I am sorry some-' times to 6ee evidences of tho impetuosity of his impulses. But “ when shall we see his like again ?” Criticise him as wo may, ho never appears in the streets without attracting public attention, and never per sonates any of his great characters without awakening the onthnsiasm of | the abused by many members of -him as their leader, and foTorgermijt^rflaißt rivalries in his conceded greatness; and] al though ottcn bitterly attacked by the press, it is interesting to see how he Tetorts scorn ior scorn, and how frequently those who censured him most are glad at last to yield to his ad mitted ability in bis profession.
