NATURALNEss or FORESTS
ACTING.

James Oates, the lifelong, devoted
friend Of Forrest. gave MIR. Alger the fol-
lowing anec,oie rs evidence Of the great
naturalness Of the tragedisn's acting:
/ was visiting my friend Ia Philadel-
plia, aud went to the theatre 90 see his
yhgini,s. He had said TO me Mt sunset,
Il feel like acting this part tonight better
than ever did befor.., aud accordingly
was full Of expectation. Surely enough:
never before Ia his life had seen him so
intensely grand. His touching and sub
lime palllus made not only women, but
sturdy men weep audibly. As for myself,
cried like baby. observed sitting In
the pit, near the stage, a fine hooking old
gentleman, with hairas white M snow,
who seemed entirely absorbed In the play
80 much 80 thar the attention of Forrest
was drawn to him, and In some Of the
most moving scenes he appeared acting
directly towards him. In the part where
the desperate father kills his daug h.or, the
acting was so vivid and real that many
ladies', sobbing aloud, buried their iacea la
their hankerchiefs and groaned. Theol,l
gentleman above alluded 10 said in a
distinct tone, my God ! he has killed
herg Afterwards, when pfrpinius,
having lost his reason, came upon the
stage aud says. With a distraught air.
"where Is my daughter 2 utterly aban-
toue,I and lost In the action, the old man
rose from his seat, aud, looking the player
earnestly In the face. while the Tears were
streaming from his eyes, said: Good Godl
sir don't you know that you killed her p
After the play Forrest told ME that when
he saw how deeply affected the old gentle
man WAS. ne camc very near breaking
down himself He esteemed Il one ofth
greatest tributes ever paid hin-one that
he valued more than the most bolsterous

HAYWOOD W. GUIoN, ESQ; AND
HABEAS CORPUS.
[From the Charlotte Democrat, l8th.l

[Irrom the Charlotte Democrat, l3th.l
Editor Democrat: While listening to
The splendid aI,ostrophe ofJudge Fowle OH
the Hon. George w. Brooks for his noble
discharge Of judicial duty In rescuing The
Kirk prisoners from the despotic graspo oi
cruel conspirators, my mind ran huiriedly
over the exciting scenes.oftllat memorable G
period, and paused to pay homage TO one
whose name has never been publicly con-
nected with those events, but who really
deserves The credit for that great de
liverance. refer to Haywood w. Guion,
Esq; late Of Charlotte, n. G..
The facts are these; that after every
argument aud every appeal 10 the Supreme
Court Judges ofNortl Carolina had failed,
aud they had formally announced their
Judicial exhaustion and all hope had
fisd and no further expedient could be
suggested by the numerous distinguished
counsel who were employed by the Kirk
prisoners. and when they were only
awaiting the organization OF the court
martial which was TO hurry the citizens OF
Caswell to an ignominious death, Mr..
Guion arrived In Raleigh ON other
business, but was 5000 called into consul-
tation and asked II he could suggest any
further proceeding wliicl. might promise
success. After rejecting a moment his
face lighted with asmile and replied that
the 14th Amendment TO the United
States Constitution provided ."That no
State sl,ould deprive any person Of life,
liberty or property without due process OF
law;n and that the civil rights bill was
passed to enforce this provision.
Judge Battle said the efIsc: was electrical,
and eve.y one began TO hunt for the civil
rights bin, and there they found The ample
and complete remedy In the statute for
the writ Of habeas corpus to he issued by a
Federal Judge whenever any prisoner
alleged he was imprisoned without "due
process of law." The petitions was hastily
prepared. presented To Judge Brooks and
The writs issued which resulted In the
release ofthe prisoners.
These facts are known 10 but few gen.
tIemen Of the profession. Judge Battle,
who was one OF the original counsel for
the Kifk prisoners, will confirm tile state-
nent made la this article.
Icould but wish that Judge Fowle, who
paid such a glowing tribute 10 Judge
Brooks, could have knnwn these facts,
that he might link the maine Of Haywood
w. Gnion with this grand struggle for
human liberty and constitutional freedom.
will add for the Information Of those
who did hot know Mr.. Guion personally,
that lie was learned man IN Ills pro-
fession and but very few men IN North
Carolina were his equal, and none
superior. as a constitutional lawyer.
Gulon's suggestion and Brooks courage
arrested one ofthe most diabolical political
crimes that corruption and cruelty had
ever prepared for free people. and began
the political revolution which destroyed
the power OF Radlcalism In the State.
