541 - Frédéric Gustave EICHHOFF, Philologist and Man of Letters (Le Havre, Seine-Maritime, 1799–1875) — Autograph signed letter from Paris, February 6, 1861. 1 p., in-4°: “Sir, Allow me to draw your attention to the article I am sending you, which was intended for the *Journal de l’Instruction publique* six months ago. An unfortunate oversight on the part of my publisher, Mr. Durand, to whom I had entrusted it, caused it to go astray all this time… This article on a heroic poem by the Indians, which several newspapers have been kind enough to review favorably, was carefully composed by Mr. E.
