One who knows him well, thus writes of his genial disposition : — " He is not general in his friendships, but I have known him, in cases where his aid has been required, display a zeal and energy rarely surpassed, or, indeed, equalled, more especially in cases of literary men, or their families, when in distress. " In December, 1836, Lady Blessington, writing to one of her correspondents, said — " I have made the acquaintance of Mr. Forster, and like him exceedingly ; he is very clever, and, wh...at is better, very noble-minded. " The principal works of Forster are, " The Statesmen of the 398 JOHN FORSTER, ESQ. Commonwealth, "* and the " Life of Goldsmith" — the latter, a performance of great merit, remarkable for the vigour of its style, extensive research, and calm philosophical views of the times and persons he treats of ; manifesting not only literary talents of the highest order, but kindly feelings and generous im- pulses. A lover of literature for its own dear sake, a zealous, able, and fearless advocate of its interests ; a man of strong sympathies with his fellow-men, and, above all, with the unfortunate, the neglected, or the ill-used of that literary profession of which he is a frank, manly, warm-hearted, and most distinguished member.
