Sus,—Having received so many manifestations
of goodwill and sympathy when setting out on my
recent mission to the Danubian Principalities, I
have the satisfaction, immediately on my return,
believing it may be interesting to many of your nu-
merous readers, to hand you a copy of the peti-
tion I had the honour to present to his Serene
Highness Prince Charles 1., reigning prince of
Roumania, and of the prince's gracious communi-
cation in reply thereto, by the insertion of which
in your columns I shall feel much obliged. lam
confident it is the sincere desire of his serene high-
ness that all his subjects should be happy and con-
tented,and from the high character and intelligence
of the prince, and the assurances given to me by
himself and by the members of his government, I
have every reason to hope that the laws of the
country which provide for the protection of the
Jews, as well as of all the other inhabitants of Rou-
mania, will be carried out in their full integrity.—
I have the honour to be, your faithful servant,

been circulated in England and elsewhere that my co-

in restoring confidence among my co.religionists, so in
