Mr. ;J: ho Ills
uthce, is a vt.ry zealous frien,l of France, being
himself of Vrendi estraft on (5). He will tell you

iu a f•ilic t-

every thing that passes in the office of Coups H-7,
and will also tali )ou 'how tar he is-to be trusted;
and if he' is sincere, in! his prot2ssiOns: This Mr.

L------ you may present with one or two thousand

ducats; after yoU have been Nx ill: 'him some tittle.

" Mr. the b•Gther of the former, has
all the co:ifidence of the King. He is passionately
fend of Fraiice,. and liruneh literature. Tell lin» to
write sernelhing -for the Instituie, that he may ob-
tain a prize.. "At all events, on the first
Vacancy, be appointed a corresponding mernher, and
in the course. of time, a me obey of the second
.class(6).- ,Tell him to ask a cdnge to come to Paris,
where he will be received with every-attention due
to his merit. This man is not rich', although he
holds an irnpoi taut situation ; he i 4 very di,sipated.
In the course ot couversation,'learu it he wants ready
money; in that. case,.contrive to let him have 5000
'ducats; but should you learn that he is not in. want
of money, you must make Van .presents to that.
,amount, or even more. •
" Mr. B---, his colleague, is a very hot re-
publican of 1793 principles : he was a protege of
the late Minister W---, and, like him, a great
republican fanatic and both Were of the order of
the Illuminati. You may converse very freely with
him. A near relation of his holds the situation of
P---, at Warsaw ; he is also attached to the
French cause. Mr. is likewise a needy
• man—five thousand_ ducats may also be presented-to
him.
" It will be necessary that you see men of letters.
Mr. L----7—:and Mr. R--, the French lanottage
master, can introduce you to Many of them. .°Rot-
zebue was weft received at Paris, but it is understood
that he is now writing a work, in which he is very
severe against the French Government ; indeed, we
have already had proof sheets sent to us. It would
be well to prevent the publication of hiS work, es-
pecially as he is a man of some weight, and his
Writings are in circulation all over .the North of Eu-
rope. There are several literary Coteties, to which
you must by all means have access'; a celebrated
Jewess of the name of H----, who is governess
to.the children of Prince ---, has a very cele-
brated coterie, or assembly, once in a week. Some
of the first people at Berlin go there. Politics' are
'freely discussed there. •

Charge d'Atfaires, Mr. ,Bignon. He has been desired
to go among thesoldiers• at the public-houses, for
the purpose of talking about the bravery of the
- French troops, 'and of the dastardly charaelei of
those of Austria. ' You have nothing to do with
thisaffatroo farther than to learn frOM Mr. Bignon
what be has done, and if he has learnt IroW the Prus-
sian troops are distributed, and how many limn haie
.at onetime their fiulough. You must endeavour to,
see the French families at Berlin, of which-there are
a great number'.. These persons are the descendants
of the French refugees, who ,first went to Prussia,
after the revocation of th 9 Ediel de Nantes. A
great number of them are employed in the CiVil
Department, such a the Custoins, Excise, &c.

" You
.must be caref'ulin avoiding Madame Che-
valier, a French actress, who was formerly mistress
of the ,Emperor Paul, and afterwards exiled from
Russia by Alekander. She is in our interest, but let
her go on her own way. She is very useful fo Mr.
Bignon. Upon the whole You will find the peo-
ple.of Prussia very corrupt and Very loose in their
morals. 'Money, alWaysMoney, and nothing but
money, is the device of a Prussian. No matter
wnether a minister, or his secretary, or a general,
or a Soldier—they are all equally rapacious.
" There is a Mr. de K. at Berlin, in the Office
of Finance, who formerly offered his services to the
French Government. was employed by the
late King of. Prussia, when in Champagne in 1792,
but at that time we knew nothing of him. He was'
very serviceable to Sieyes, when he was Minister at
Berlin, who did not, however, much encourage
him, as he always had a strong dislike to foreigners,
especially republicans, who were disposed under
that cloak, to betray their own country. How-
ever Otto did confide-things to him, and he exe-
cuted them with zeal, and shewed much ability.
Endeavour to see him. If he has not been-disgusted
by Sieyes, and if .he can be of use to you, you must
enlist him (7).
" Whit has been said ,of Mr. de K. may be ap-
plied to a very respeaable_man,
.though a great in-
triguer, of tie name of E—, of the Jewish Per-
suasion. Sieyes could not endure him ; but Otto
employed him after
.Sieyes left Berlin, and was satis-
fied with him. You will observe that this man was
employed by the late King of Prussia in 1792, and
was in Paris on the memorable i oth of August of
that year, as a corfidential.agent of Prussia, and had
nearly been hanged as a Spy. He-contrived, -how-
ever, to make his escape, hot he felt all'his papers,_
behind, which led to some important discoveries (8).
This pcts.on you should by all means...see' , but be on
your guarcYwhen you codvetse with hint, as he 'is
very ruse.
" Make use of cypher C. in yOur letters from
Berun, and send them, under cover, to Messrs. Per-
. regaux
_and Co. to be delivered to Mr, D'Arboii (9).
.Send a duplicate by Mr. Bignon's messenger, to the
• same address. •
" You Will also do well to transmit an account of
Mr.Bignon's mode of living—it lie is liked at Court,
and upon the whole, every thing that is said of
him. He is yet a young man, and not exaEtly fit
fur the situation he holds. Mr. De la Foret, how-
ever, will soon set out as Ambassador for Berlin.
" Enough-has been said with regard to Prussia."
