All seven items are in good condition, on aged and lightly-creased bifoliums, and all docketted by the recipient. The Duke's letters total 13pp., 4to. Each is addressed, with postmarks, on the reverse of the second leaf, with one bearing part of a red wax seal. The letters all deal with the financial management of his affairs, with reference to substantial sums, with mention of Naples and Rothschild.

The last letter is devoted to the 'nouvelles [.] tristes' from Mexico. 'Pourtant je viens de lire sur les journaux que le President avait envoye un message au General Paredes pour traiter de la paix des de Republiques & que le Cabinet d'Angleterre avait interposer mediation pour l'arrangement de ces differends.' The rest of the letter is entirely devoted to the same subject. Agati's letter is 1p., 4to. It concerns 'les affaires ecclesiastiques de Mr. Alaman'.…
