Dear Sir
I was in hopes of giving you the information
you desired, sooner than I find I shall be able, for knowing
M. Vigneules, the Persian Secretary, to be a man of letters
and born at Berlin, I thought he could inform me, best
tho' he is of opinion that the translation of the Code Frederik
having been made by authority and for the use of the man
French Subjects of the King's, there is nothing more in german
but what has been translated, and that the same Code is still
in force, yet he would not be quite positive, and has therefore
promised me to send your queries with the next post to
Berlin, from whence they will be answered in about a
month, with more certainty, than he could do; and you
shall have 'em as soon as they arrive. I can say nothing
about the regular intercourse between Vienna and Petersburg
nor whether the present situation of affairs with Turkey is
likely to give your brother much to do. The Russian Manifesto
which you have in the Gazette, is I believe the first communication.
