baron tautchnitzⒶemendation wrote me sometime ago, asking me whether he should send that money to you or to me, but i was so long getting ready to answer it, that he finally gave it up, and he has written me, that he forwarded the money to you; so it is all right. if you ever hear from that translator again, you will have better luck than i have ever had. i believe i have never heard from any one of them the second time, from any corner of europe. your sale of the “prince and pauper” has reached a very handsome figure. i shall not be sorry to see it go on prospering. i am very much obliged to you, for sending me all those english notices of the book. they are surprisingly complimentary.

iⒶemendation had seen no english notices before, except those from “the saturday review” and “the athenaeum” which were the reverse of complimentary, but it gave me no dis-comfort, because here we consider that neither of those papers, would compliment the holy scriptures, if an american had written them. please give my love to conway, and hand him the inclosed newspaper cutting.
