Edwin Forrest and King Lear.

A number Of years ago Edwin Forrest
visited Europe. The Peoria Democrat
says that he examined the insane asy.
lums of France in search of knowledge
particularly adapted to his style of plays,
and more especially that Of King Lear, u
one of his master pieces. In one of
them he found an old man, aged about
sixty years old, and when not aroused,
could easily have pushed him over with
a gentle shove; but when he commenced
talking of the Napoleonic dynasty he
became lion, and before Mr. Forrest
was aware what he was doing, he had
lifted him by the hips and thrown him
about ten feet over his head, and was in
the act of crushing him with his heel,
when the keeper appeared on the scene
and rescued him from all harm. This
little episode, Mr.. Forrest states, paid
him two-fold for his trip across the At
lantic; for he had there an occular de-
monstration of the power of mind over
strength. He is fine scholar and mas
ter of three or four languages; has been
a hard student in his beloved profession,
and considers Shakespeare one of the
noblest lights permitted to shine. He
has made his works o life study, and
even in his advanced years he says he
never plays King Lear without finding
new beauties he never saw before.
