SCHLEGEL, Friedrich von (1772–1829). Letter from the author: “Fr. v. Schlegel,” [Vienna 1815]; 1 page, in-8. Note: During the Congress of Vienna. Minister Johann von WESSENBERG will reply upon receipt of the agreed-upon communication from Baron Wilhelm von HUMBOLDT. It is up to the baron to ensure that matters proceed without delay. Schlegel will speak again with His Excellency Baron von Wessenberg so that he may press the matter with the Prussian envoy. He would like to know whether the Act of the Congress can be obtained in Paris. “The reply from Minister von Wessenberg will follow immediately as soon as he has received the agreed-upon communication from Baron von Humboldt. If, therefore, you wish to expedite the matter, I ask that you bring it to the attention of Baron Humboldt, since it is entirely up to him to ensure that it proceeds without delay. – In the meantime, I will not fail to speak with His Excellency Baron von Wess[enberg] once again about the matter, so that he, too, may bring it to the attention of the Prussian envoy. […] Is the Acte du Congrès still not available from Schoell in Paris?”
