My dear Siebold I duly received yours of 19 December last which I delayed acknowledging until such time as I thought you would likely be in England I am sorry you could not come to Bankfields for the usual new year festivities which have gone off very well. Plenty of skating instead of hunting. Miß Insts Ball was unavoidably postponed until the 12th I asked her to send you a card and I hope you may be able to accept the invitation.

I have no objections whatever but would feel on the contrary highly gratified, if the Japanese Government by your kind interference should be inclined to make her obligations known to me through Count Beust or the foreign Office – – and would be but proper to say also some thing civil about Dr Beck of the Imp. Printing Office. I am very anxious that the Note and Stamp question should be settled at the satisfaction of both parties. Now, quite openly, I consider Engl's stamps first rate, and as a production of printing quite perfect. I am quite sure Engl will do his utmost to finish the 100 Mill. till the end of March. The only fear I have is that the stamps will arrive in a very bad state on account of the gumming, which will not stand the voyage through such horrible hot climate. The cases will be forwarded about April and reach the red Sea at the very hottest time on the year! Could you not send, as I already suggested, a portion of the stamps via New York? And must the gumming be done in Vienna? You better speak on the subject with some prac- tical printers at Francfort and in London. My next querry is: How stands the Notes business. Is there no chance whatever that Engl or the Imp. Printing Office may get an order to print the notes for the Yokohama Bank? That would be a very great triumph me by Overbeck and he brought also a letter for Lord Bloomfield and Gagern.

I should like to hear from you whether the uncle of the Mikado is coming to Vienna and whether the new Chargé d'Affaires has got some in- struction concerning the Repre- sentation Affair.

The project of a speedy visit, which I entertained when we last met, is only delayed for a short time, at farthest till the time I shall have to go to Italy for our sick officer – acting as interpreter – altho in no way connected with Japan officially. I did not wish to intrude private schemes – even had there been time during our last visit. I may mention Mr Mutzu took his boxes with him, but asked the Hotel people to send to your care his letters, having decided not to return to Vienna I left my own luggage in the Hotel not knowing our future route – as Japanese decesion is not to be depended upon in such matters.

Your obedient Servant <unclear>John Skinner</unclear> Chief manager 1871 Vienna, March 29th My dear friend, I have received your kind letter dated London March 24th, and shall do what I can to comply with your wishes respecting your brother in Japan and his wish of entering the Austrian Service as a Student Interpreter. With respect to Engl I must confess that the delay is not alone his fault, but I remember that for at least a fortnight discussions were going on about the colour in which the stamps had to be printed and whether the stamps should be gummed or not. Engl could not give his orders nor could ? make his preparations before this capital question was decided. I remember very well that Engl complained to me that he could not begin to print, as it was not yet decided whether a blue or a red or a black colour had to be used. About three weeks were lost in this undecided state, and these three weeks I suppose Engl claims for the fulfilment of his engagement. I would sincerely entreat you to speak in favour of Engl and not to make any casus belli of this delay which really is not only his fault, but was caused by different cir- cumstances. you did not tell me in Your last letter any thing about the forwarding of the cases, I would advise you to send to easy as soon as possible. via Suez and so on every fortnight 10 cases. the last 10 cases you mando do better to via San Francisco as the head in the red sea might injure the stamps – at any rate tell me whether you wish partially with all my heart Oberdobling, March 31th. 1871 My dear friend, I wrote to you a few days ago to Thatched House Club and as I fear you will not get my lines in due time, I write you again today to Wiesbaden. I mentioned in my last letter that it is my full conviction Engl acted quite fairly and did his best to be ready at this time but it is really not his fault if he did not succeed. There were about two weeks lost in discussing whether the colour to be printed should be red or black or blue and another week was spent till the Commissioners came to a conclusion respecting the gumming. If therefore Engl be ready with all the stamps on the 1st of May I think you may be satisfied. A very important question arises respecting the forwarding of the stamps. It would be at any rate very desirable that at least a portion of the stamps should be sent by the way of New York or San Francisco. The weather will be very hot in the red sea when the cases will be dispatched and it is to be feared that the gumming will suffer and dammage be done to the stamps. On the other route they will not meet with any hot climate and be much safer although somewhat longer on the way. You should also con- sent that the cases should be sent in intervals in proportion they are ready, say 10 cases every fortnight. I shall be extremely happy to meet you here again. I hope you will make some stay here. At the end of April I shall go for a week to the Manufacturing Districts, but hope to see you before that time here. The Treaty with Japan has been finally ratified by the Parliament and be despatched in May next with the Corvette Fasana. With heart and hand ever Yours / Scherzer No. Oriental Bank Corporation.

Instant and beg to inform you in reply that the ship „Free“ 150 tons register, sustained damage when rounding the Cape and had to put in to Table Bay to be recoppered. We find on examining your 3 Packages that the contents of No 2 consisting of China wares are apparantly in good order. Several of the Articles in Packages numbered 1 and 3 are stained and damaged by salt Water; an earthenware figure and Lacquered Ware Boxes were found clipped. We are therefore desirous of knowing if the Packages were insured against all risks. Assuming that the aggregate value of the contents of the Packages when shipped was 350 Dollars we think that the damage sustained may be estimated at from £ 20 to £ 30. We are, Dear Sir, Your faithful & obedient Servants Henry S. King Co. Brünn, May 1st 1871 My dear Sir I take the liberty to re- command to your particular attention, Mr. Theodor v. Offermann of this city, who is at the head of an association of manu- facturers who furnish the Austrian army and and who would be able to offer to the Japanese Go- vernment much cheaper prices than any one of the German or English Manu- facturers. Mr. Offermann will present you the prices of the different articles wanted by your Government, and shall give you all the particulars about them. Mr. Offermann has also supplied the Rumanian, Wallachian and Egyptian Army with clothings etc. and would be able to outfit 50.000 men within three months. I have seen the material here and can contest that everything is of the very best quality. With the utmost esteem your very sincere Dr Scherzer. I shall be in Vienna on the 8th. of May and should be very glad to meet you again there. My next address is: care of Mr Oscar Gülcher at Bielitz. Reichenberg May 3rd 1871 My dear friend! I have spoken at Brünn to one of the leading firms there Mess. Offermann & Co. who are at the head of the „Heeres–Ausrüstungs–Comission“ and are able to furnish the very best materials in the shortest time and at the cheapest price. I persuaded Mr Offerman to call upon you and to discuss the matter with you more minutely. I think neither English nor German or French furnishers will be able to supply the Japanese Government at so reasonable a rate and under such favorable conditions. You would render me also a great service in doing your best to procure to the Austrian Manufacturers the supply of your army or at least a part of the materials re- quired, for it would prove to our government and our Industrials that my endeavours were not in vain and that the expedition begins already to bear – fruits. And besides your own government would make a good match and will surely not be cheated as otherwise. —— Please make all possible efforts to procure for our merchants this business or at least to give them a fair chance. I am sure our government would also be highly gratified and would be glad to show her gratitude by some means, or other and probable confer an order to some of your commissioners whom you would appoint for such a distinction. I shall be back in Vienna on Monday night (8th. May) and am anxious to meet you yet there With all my heart yours Scherzer. Vienna. Baron Von Siebold you to send them direct here if you have time. I suppose you would wish them Yours very truly W. A. Malcolm Believe me With Hudsons kind regards insured? London 4th May 1871 My dear Siebold, I have none of your favors to reply to. I can only hope you received my telegram The departure of the "<unclear>Meashe</unclear>" has been unavoidably postponed, and I do not think she will get away before the 28th Instant or so So that will give you more time to prepare your goods and I should strongly advise Private 14 Great Queen St. Westminster May 6. 1871 My dear Siebold, thanks for your letter of the 20th ult.mo The explanation of what has (between the Baron <unclear>Sigorn</unclear> & the Ambassador here) passed, deepens the mystery, renders Count Apponyi's conduct more unaccountable Still! Such persistent discourtesy must have a motive, but I am entirely at a loss to guess what it can be having had no com- munication with him, except upon the first occasion when I think at the Court or the Foreign Office dinner he asked to be introduced to me, & was warm in his expressions of grateful acknowledgement for the services rendered the a day or two Mission in Peking — After that we received a card for one of the Countess' "at home" & went there, when the Countess also alluded to the hospitality the Mission had received in very courteous terms. From that day to this, now a year ago, I have never heard or seen anything of the Count or Countess beyond meeting them at the Palace or at Parties in town. But so far as I am concerned, or Lady Alcock's there is nothing more to be said about it, save that the Conduct observed towards us on the part of the Austrian Ambassador here, is the most unaccountable thing I ever heard of — All the more so as he has been Engaged, ( very much to my regret ) both last year & this in pressing upon me ( through the Interpreter ) some tangible acknowledgement of his Sovereign's grateful feeling, for services rendered to the Austrian Mission in China. But what I do regret, very much more than any discourtesy or want of common Civility to myself, is the total neglect with which Mr. Adkins' services & Baron <unclear>Pelz</unclear> have been treated. As our Chinese Secretary he acted throughout the nine weeks of protracted & wearisome negotiations as Baron <unclear>Pelz</unclear>'s Interpreter & had the labour of putting it all in time besides. The Baron repeatedly Expressed both to him & to myself how deeply he felt the value of the services rendered by Mr. Adkins to his Mission — And indeed it is not too much to say that without his assistance or Interpreter & Secretary the Treaty could not have been carried through. It does surprise me therefore that no notice should have been taken from Vienna. When Mr. Brown performed the same kind of service, but a much less arduous one, for Mr. de Kint the Belgian Minister the King of the Belgians not only sent him special thanks but a valuable diamond pin and a rifle. I wish you were nothing more about myself. I never wished further thanks; & indeed anything beyond such attention from the Mission here, as it was most natural to expect after my lengthened & intimate relations with the Austrian Envoy as my guest with all his Mission in Peking — apart from any public service I may have rendered. But I should be very glad if you could find any opportunity of recalling Mr Adkins most real & valuable Services, as I am convinced it can only be an oversight, that he should have had no notice whatever taken of them by the Emperor. I am rather in doubt where to address this to you, but as you say you don't think of returning to your mother until the middle of May, & I should be glad that you received it before you left Vienna, I shall address it to the Oesterreichischer Hof — in the hope that it will be forwarded if you have left. with our best wishes & congratulations — had a letter the other day from Mr Daniel in which he spoke of the Prince & his companions in very high terms as being most studious & pleasant in all his relations with him - So I hope all is going on as well as we could desire. I shall see you of course as soon as you return, & believe me My dear Siebold Very truly Yours Rutherford Alcock P.S. If you are with your mother pray recall Lady Alcock & myself & her memory I to the Oesterreichischer Hof - in the hope that it will be forwarded if you have left. it before you left Vienna, I shall address this to you, but as you say you don't think I am rather in doubt where to address of returning to your mother until the middle of May, & I should be glad that you received with our best wishes & congratulations - Buch u.

Is not this rather out of the way? I should think Cologne Brussels and Antwerp the quickest. I made no definite arrangements with the „Mashi“ and have told the brokers I cannot give the goods to them. You may depend upon my making as favorable arrangements with the P.&.O. as I possibly can, and we duly attend to Insurance.

Dear Siebold, I duly received your kind note from Berlin & have to thank you for the wishes therein expressed in regard to my family. My departure for Japan is fixed for July by the Cunard line I think as the season is too much advanced for travelling by the overland route. Should you think of returning also about that time I should be very glad if we could arrange to leave together. The „Handelsblad“ of Amsterdam the other day announced the transfer of Parkes from Yedo to Pekin; but I think this to be premature as from a statement made a few days ago in the House of Lords by Lord Granville the post in China is not yet officially vacant – Alcock being still considered the Minister there. However there seems to be little doubt as to Parkes getting it. He was to leave Yokohama by the American steamer of the 22nd. of April & will therefore be in England in the beginning of June. If you should hear anything from Japan concerning me before my departure, you will oblige me by writing me a line. Where have you been since I last saw you in London? I traced your movements by the „Cologne Gazette“ to Berlin, but since then nothing has been heard of you. I suppose you have heard that the would–be murderers of King & Dallas have been arrested and executed. You have doubtless often travelled between Belgium & Germany and vice versa – now why don't you take your journey by Maestricht instead of Liège – the distance being the same – & stay a few days with your old friends?

I said that I have no objection to pay to Engl the account of f 8955 but I could not take any responsibility respecting the rest. I promised to write to you and to see what can be yet done in his favour, and also to enquire whether you are satis- fied with a mere commercial receipt of the amount in question or whether you wish a formal receipt for which a stamp–duty of f 27.85 k (twentyseven florins 85 Kreuzer) is to be paid.

I expect them here next Monday, 5th Instant, and will send them down at once to Southampton, and forward them via Accelerated route so that the whole lot of 63b Cases will arrive by the same mail at Yokohama. The accelerated route will be a little more expensive as I explained to you. I called at your rooms on Saty afternoon 27th May, but found you had left for Frankfort. I then went up to Mr Wooyeno and handed him my report on copper, with a few more samples of cloth. I could not get the Boot Samples & have not got them yet in consequence of the Whitsuntide holidays. I was asked to get some samples of drills etc. as yet I have not received them for the same reason. Mr Wooyeno promised to send me cuttings of the samples of cloth received from Japan, but I have not yet got them. Will you kindly remind him of them. St. A. Malcolm Baron von Siebold care of Donderf4 Kluberstrasse Frankfort A.M. Would it do to speak to him now about a more settled Agency or would you advise me to do it when Wooyeno comes back to London? I leave myself entirely in your hands but my own opinion is that it would be best for you to moot the matter first. I hear from Japan that 3 vessels with Railway material had arrived and that Pitman had been given the job of landing the Rails at Kanagawa! I cannot see that two Japanese could not have done that work themselves, and better as well as cheaper. I remain Yours very truly 1871 14th June My dear Siebold It has been arranged that the Japanese Prince is to be received at Marlborough House tomorrow afternoon at three o'clock by the Duke of Edinburgh, who will introduce him to the Prince of Wales. Lord Granville knows all about it, and the / 1 Lancaster St ? Prince of Wales has asked Mitford to come and interpret. I quite understand why you are anxious on the subject. I also think that the Japanese Prince has been treated shamefully. Hoping to see you soon any day you can manage to come and call Believe me Very sincerely Your Arthur B. Haig 1871 15th June My dear Siebold. Your letter reached me too late last night to send you a reply then, but I hope this will reach you in time. His Royal Highness wants the Prince of Japan to come to Marlborough House half- an-hour later than the previous time named as the Ex–Emperor and Empress of the French are coming there at three o’clock. Therefore it would be more convenient to the Prince of Wales if His Imperial Highness would arrive at half- past three instead of three. I have written to Mr. Hammond to the same effect. His Royal Highness hopes that you will accompany the Prince. Mitford comes with the / Duke. I am very glad to hear from you that H.I.H. is not disappointed with his reception in England. I feared that he would have been. Very sincerely yours Arthur B. Haig Expens-Note.

It will be pleasant to you to take a peep at Japan and see how affairs are really going on there. And still more pleasant to be taken guided to Vienna. I don’t think we shall be able to accomplish a visit to Vienna next year & see the exhibition. Had Count Appony been other than he was, I might have had cause of thankfulness to the Austrians, & it would have been a real pleasure to visit vienna.

ARDUA TENDIT My dear Siebold, It is quite refreshing to see your handwriting again after so long a silence I am sorry to hear you have still remnants of your London seediness about you but I hope when you come over here you will try a week at Brighton with me and it will do us both good, and will set you up for another trip to Japan. Many thanks for your infor- mation in re contracts Wooyenoh told me he had not received particulars of the Naval requirements but that another official was bringing them from Japan whom he was to meet in america but whose departure has now I hear been postponed until Wooyenohs arrival at Yeddo. Whether further orders come to us or not I am convinced the Japanese Govt will have no cause of complaint in what we are doing for them. I am giving them my personal and constant attention. I only wish we had had reliable samples of Swords, lace and Saddlery to work upon – as to the „regulation" French pattern there is not such a thing. Everything seems to be left to the taste or Caprice of the commanding officer as regards minor points and individual officers it appears often use their crests on sword Bilt bosses etc Lowder has been going on very steadily ever since I came back, but next time he absents himself I shall make a point of seeing Lady Alcock or writing to her. We must now come to an arrangement for a salary. So soon as I receive the translation of the catalogue of your Japanese collection I will press it upon our friends in Leeds, Bradford, L'pool, Manchester, Glasgow etc. with much pleasure to myself if I can be of any assistance I doubt if in America there would be much chance of sale. They do not seem to lay out much money on the „fine arts" [?] I will bring prominently before every one I write to the desira- bility of sending a „Viewer" to see.

You will be pleased to hear that this very week a telegram came to Minami from the War office telling him to proceed with the contracts entered into by Wooyenoh. This is so far satisfactory that it relieves us of a very unpleasant position. We were desirous of acceding to the wishes of the Japanese Government to cancel the contracts, but doing so was impossible without a heavy forfeit, as we had tied the contractors down hand and foot, and of course put ourselves in the same position. Thanks for your hint about a further approval. Affairs in Japan require your head there sadly. In the matter of currency they are making sad mistakes. We are planning a Japanese in the shipbuilding Yard of Messrs John Elder & Co Glasgow, friends of my own. Mrs Malcolm desires her kind regards, so does Hudson. When are you coming over? On saturday Brent made up quite a Japanese party consisting of Frank Hall, Beato, Hudson, Winstonly [?], Schoyer Brent & self. They dine with me tonight. It is pleasant seeing so many old friends. I have just received a reply from Bradford about your Museum. I much regret to say it is unsatisfactory. The mayor laments having no money at his disposal, and says he is quite sure, much as he shd like to acquire it for the town, He could not raise the money by subscription. From L'pool no answer yet.
