Louis Napoleon  : Letter to Edgar Ney

Elizabeth Barrett Browning to Mary Russell Mitford, 2 October 1849: 'The [French] President's letter from Rome has delighted us -- A letter worth writing and reading! We read it first in the Italian papers (long before it was printed in Paris) and the amusing thing was, that where he speaks of the "hostile influences," (of the cardinals) they had misprinted it "orribili influenze", which must have turned still colder the blood in absolutist readers. The misprint was not corrected until long after -- more than a week, I think.'

Century: 1800-1849     Reader/Listener/Group: Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning     Print: Newspaper
