Monsieur BLAISE will return tomorrow, bringing me a bearer bill for eight hundred francs... He will also bring me our double Treaty on stamped paper of this little affair, in which I undertake to give him the three pieces of news. The first is 'L'Artiste', which I'll give him ready-made on the spot; the second is 'Les Déistes' and the third is 'La chapelle du Chêne', and I undertake to give him the other two within a fortnight; the whole forming an in-18 volume of two hundred pages..."
