{[London,] 4 February 1868 
Dear Fred, 

Many thanks for the ‘medicine bottles’. 

I still have two not quite withered buds under my left arm and 
on my left thigh. However, they do not bother me when walking. I 
feel generally better as well. 

I quite agree with you that you should not go into the money 
theory for the time being, but only indicate that the matter has 
been treated in a new way.’ 

Enclosures from Vienna from Fox (please send them back to 
me). You see what effect your essay in the Börsenzeitung” is 
having.*”? It is perhaps best to leave Vienna to its own devices. It is 
enough that attention has been drawn there to my book.° The 
whole business is very immature. When you consider how 
agriculture still predominates in the Empire en gros, then it is 
comical to watch these somersaults. What prevails in Vienna is 
finance, and not large industry. However, as a ferment the 
hubbub cannot hurt. 

Kugelmann has sent me Dühring’s Verkleinerer Carey’s 1 was 
right that he only noticed me in order to annoy the others.4 What 
is very conspicuous is the very coarse way in which this affected 
Berliner handles Mill, Roscher, etc., while he treats me with timid 
care. According to him, apart from Carey, List is the greatest 
genius of the 19th century. In another pamphlet Kapital und 
Arbeit which I saw today at the Museum,‘ he ‘abuses’ Lassalle. I 
shall send you his book to look at one of these days. 

Perhaps there will be no war this year. The fellows are all 
anxious about domestic conditions. However, the Russians will not 
neglect to provide causes of friction. They will lie fallow if they do 
not manage to bring Germany and France to blows. 

Coppel was here on Sunday and will come again on Wednes- 
day.” He is here to put the financial affairs of the King of 
Hanover! in order. He is a merry fellow. Kugelmann has forced 
this cousin of the Rothschilds to study my book. 

There is little new for me in Schorlemmer’s letter. But still my 
THANKS. 

Salut. Tae

I can only send the newspaper cuttings tomorrow because the 
boxes for Book-post were closed.
