2 pp. on bifolium. 8vo. To an unnamed friend, announcing the supposedly itinerary of Prince Napoleon. He should be leaving Berlin on Friday and planing to take a route over Dresde, where he will not stay very long but instead visit the King. The Prince's aide-de-camp will instruct the addressee directly to book an adequate hotel apartement, as soon as there will be a definite resolution: "Le Prince Napoleon quittera vraisemblablement Berlin dans la journée de Vendredi et il semble decidé à passer par Dresde, mais le proposant uniquement d'y voir le mutée il compte ne d'y arreter qu'un jour. Et desire cepentant rendre visite au Roi; seulement il ne pourra accepter aucune invitation et il faudra vous arranger de facon à ce qu'il ne lui en faste pot. Dont ce que Je vous dis de son itineraire n'est encore, au surplus, qu'à l'état de projet; dès que le Prince aura pris une resolution definitive, son premier Aide de camp vous en instruira directement en vous demandant de lui retenir un appartement dans un hotel convenable. [.]". - From 1864 on until 1870 Benedetti was ambassador in Berlin. He tried without success to convince Bismarcks to sell realms along the Rhine and to win him over for the annexion of Luxemburgs and Belgium. - Blind stamped monogrammed stationery. Traces of old folding. Seller Inventory # 40579
