as a man of abilities and known to the studious
world, will do a great honour to an obscure, barbarian
author such as I am.
I am very impatient to See your french work
on legislation and hope to have a copy of it
as soon as it is published. I would give it into
the hands of my Select Russian friends, and
See what they say about it. in regard to
what you say about the terms of borrowing
money in Russia, instead of 6 I put 5 per cent,
which is the rate fixed by law at the opening
of the new bank last year. the rest is perfectly
well stated. the correction I made on page
27th is word for word as follows, marked wth
red ink.
— " In the country, in wch I am writting the whole
" system of laws on this Subject, is perfectly
"inefficacious. The rate fixed by law is 6
" per cent: many people lend money; and
" nobody at that rate: the lowest ordinary rate,
" upon the very best real Security is 8 per cent:
" 9 and even 10 upon Such Security are common
