Some four sheets making a Pamphlet called _Chartism_ addressed to
you at Concord are, I suppose, snorting along through the waters
this morning, part of the Cargo of the "British Queen." At least
I gave them to Mr. Brown (your unseen friend) about ten days ago,
who promised to dispose of them; the "British Queen," he said,
was the earliest chance. The Pamphlet itself (or rather booklet,
for Fraser has gilt it, &c., and asks five shillings for it as a
Book) is out since then; radicals and others yelping
considerably in a discordant manner about it; I have nothing
other to say to _you_ about it than what I said last time, that
the sheets were _yours_ to do with as you saw good,--to burn if
you reckoned that fittest. It is not entirely a Political
Pamphlet; nay, there are one or two things in it which my
American Friends specially may like: but the interests discussed
are altogether English, and cannot be considered as likely to
concern New-Englishmen very much. However, it will probably be
itself in your hand before this sheet, and you will have
determined what is fit.

A copy of _Wilhelm Meister,_ two copies, one for Stearns Wheeler,
are probably in some of the "Line Ships" at this time too: good
voyage to them! The _French Revolutions_ were all shipped,
invoiced, &c.; they have, I will suppose, arrived safe, as we
shall hear by and by. What freightages, landings, and
embarkments! For only two days ago I sent you off, through
Kennet, another Book: John Sterling's _Poems,_ which he has
collected into a volume. Poor John has overworked himself again,
or the climate without fault on his side has proved too hard for
him: he sails for Madeira again next week! His Doctors tell me
there is no intrinsic danger; but they judge the measure safe as
one of precaution. It is very mortifying he had nestled himself
down at Clifton, thinking he might now hope to continue there;
and lo! he has to fly again.--Did you get his letter? The
address to him now will be, for three months to come, "_Edward_
Sterling, Esq., South Place, Knightsbridge, London," his
Father's designation.

Farther I must not omit to say that Richard Monckton Milnes
purposes, through the strength of Heaven, to _review_ you! In
the next Number of the _London and Westminster,_ the courageous
youth will do this feat, if they let him. Nay, he has already
done it, the Paper being actually w
