London, 6 February 1860 
Dear Sir, 

Would you very kindly arrange to print the enclosed written 
statement,” which I am sending simultaneously to the National- 
Zeitung and the Publicist (what its politics are I do not know, but it 
would appear to be widely read over here) in Berlin; likewise, to 
the Kölnische Zeitung, the Frankfurter Journal, the Hamburg ‘Reform’ 
and the Augsburg ‘Aligemeine Zeitung’. 

I should be much obliged if you would pass the following on to 
Lassalle: 

Time does not permit my replying to him today. 

The article on Kossuth,” which I sent Szemere in Paris on THE 
EXPRESS CONDITION that it be returned immediately, has been in his 
hands for months now. [I shall now hold a pistol to his 
head —allegorically speaking, of course. 

I should be most grateful if Lassalle would send Vogt’s book‘ by 
post direct to Engels at his private address, 6 Thorncliffe Grove, 

* K. Marx, ‘To the Editors of the Volks-Zeitung. Declaration’. - & K. Marx, ‘Kossuth 
and Louis Napoleon’. - © C. Vogt, Mein Prozess gegen die Allgemeine Zeitung, Geneva, 
1859. 

Oxford Road, Manchester, where I am going to stay.” Finally, I 
should be glad if he would send to the same address copies of 
such Berlin papers as accept the statement. 

I am, Sir, your most obedient servant, 

K. Marx
