Anyhow, Such As It Is, I Am Glad To Think That It Cannot Have

Above All Things To Serve One's Friends By Being Just To Them.
Two numbers of your "Kleine Fantasie-Stucke" have been
distributed, up to about a thousand copies, with the paper
"La
Musique," under the title of "Bluettes," - a rather ill-chosen
title to my idea, - but, notwithstanding this title and the words
"adopted by F. Liszt," which the editors have further taken the
responsibility of putting, I am persuaded that this publication
is a good opening (in material) into the musical world of France,
and, looking at this result only, I am charmed to have been able
to contribute to it.
I shall return to Hamburg by the last boat from Heligoland on the
27th of September, in order to go to the baths of Eilsen, where I
expect to spend all the month of October. In November I shall be
back in Weymar for the rest of the winter.
If you would have the kindness to send to Schuberth's address a
case of 250 cigars of a pretty good size from the Bremen
Manufactory, I should be very much obliged to you, and would take
care to let you have the money (which in any case will not be a
very great sum) through Schuberth. The samples you sent me to
Weymar did reach me, but at a moment when I was extremely
occupied, so that I forgot them.
