Summary
Thanking him for his 2 letters and noting that since Henri has not written about Rose's health, he is hoping that she has recovered; discussing Prussian politics, with reference to a "victorious defeat"; stating that things seem to be moving to an abyss, and that the French view of the regent of Prussia (Wilhelm I) does not surprise the writer, who predicts a bad future.
