{Manchester, 22 October 1852] 

Dear Marx, 

If you want to count on receiving the articles for Dana 
punctually in future, you must take care not to send me 
Hungarian cotonets, especially of a Thursday night. Yesterday the 

fellow* took up the whole of my evening and intends to come back 
today—he is pretty well-versed in a number of subjects, military 
included, and is the most interesting Hungarian I have met so far, 
but he is also a German-Austrian aristocrat. 

So we are now recognised by the State, and even by the police, 
as ‘intelligent’ people, teste Stieber. A fine business. The way that 
stupid Stieber tries to shuffle off responsibility for his own spy, 
Cherval, onto our chaps!”"' Have you any idea why Kothes and 
Bermbach have been arrested?“ Those two, of all people—it’s 
ominous! But we shall discipline Haupt.”” Weerth will find out 
where he is in South America and, on his arrival there, will 
unmask him. To that end we shall have to get hold of the 
Kolnische Zig. or some other paper containing his statements. 
Could you not attend to this? Do everything you can; it would 
really be splendid to make the rascal feel the power of the Neue 
Rheinische Zeitung as far away as Brazil. 

More in a day or two, and also translations.?™
