My dear Sir

I received  Nicht überlieferter Brief von Marx an E. S. Beesly, geschrieben am 23. oder 24. Oktober 1870.
Schließen your note this morning & therefore did not call on you.  Vermutlich Entwurf/Korrekturbogen von E. S. Beesly: The International Working Men's Association. In: The Fortnightly Review. London. New series. No. 47, 1. November 1870. S. 517–535. Abdruck in: MEGA² I/21. S. 1067–1086 (vgl. Marx an E. Beesly, 16.9.1870). Siehe E. S. Beesly an Marx, 21.10.1870 und E. S. Beesly an Marx, 23.10.1870.
Schließen I am glad you are satisfied with the article. One always has to omit materials one would like to employ, & I have as it is exceeded the usual limits of a Fortnightly article. | I made no reference to the Census of the International because to have done so without making some precise & incontrovertible statement as to the number of English members would have had, in my judgment, a bad effect.

I have written to Morley to ask if | you may have a dozen slips. He tells me that there is to be an  Siehe Charles C. Chesney: England and the French Republic: [a letter] to the Editor of the Fortnightly Review. In. The Fortnightly Review. London, Vol. 14, November 1870. S. 581–588.
Schließen article by Colonel Chesney (the military critic of the Saturday I believe) against the Jacobin phantom.
