exalted personage from whom especially it was her wish to conceal it. After a hurried and vain endeavour to thrust it in a drawer, she was forced to place it, open as it was, upon a table. The address, however, was uppermost, and, the contents thus unexposed, the letter escaped notice. At this juncture enters the Minister D —. His lynx eye immediately perceives the paper, recognises the handwriting of the address, observes the confusion of the personage addressed, and fathoms her secret. After some business transactions, hurried through in his ordinary manner, he produces a letter somewhat similar to the one in question, opens it, pretends to read it, and then places it in close juxtaposition to the other. Again he converses, for some fifteen minutes, upon the public affairs. At length, in taking leave, he takes also from the table the letter to which he had no claim. Its rightful owner saw, but, of course, dared not call attention to the act, in the presence of the third personage who stood at her elbow. The Minister decamped, leaving his own letter – one of no importance – upon the table.»

      «Here, then,» said Dupin to me, «you have precisely what you demand to make the ascendency complete – the robber’s knowledge of the loser’s knowledge of the robber.»

      «Yes,» replied the Prefect; «and the power thus attained has, for some months past, been wielded, for political purposes, to a very dangerous extent. The personage robbed is more thoroughly convinced, every day, of the necessity of reclaiming her letter. But this, of course, cannot be done openly. In fine, driven to despair, she has committed the matter to me.»

      «Than whom,» said Dupin, amid a perfect whirlwind of smoke, «no more sagacious agent could, I suppose, be desired, or even imagined.»

      «You flatter me,» replied the Prefect; «but it is possible that some such opinion may have been entertained.»

      «It is clear,» said I, «as you observe, that the letter is still in the possession of the Minister; since it is this possession, and not any employment of the letter, which bestows the power. With the employment the power departs.»

      «True,» said G.; «and upon this conviction I proceeded. My first care was to make thorough search of the Minister’s hotel; and here my chief embarrassment lay in the necessity of searching without his knowledge. Beyond all things, I have been warned of the danger which would result from giving him reason to suspect our design.»

      Note. – The «MS. Found in a Bottle» was originally published in 1831; and it was not until many years afterwards that I became acquainted with the maps of Mercator, in which the ocean is represented as rushing, by four mouths, into the (northern) Polar Gulf, to be absorbed into the bowels of the earth; the Pole itself being represented by a black rock, towering to a prodigious height.

      Примечание. «Рукопись, найденная в бутылке», напечатана в 1831 г., и только много лет спустя я познакомился с картами Меркатора, на которых океан впадает четырьмя потоками в полярную (северную) пучину, где исчезает в недрах земли. Сам полюс изображен в виде черной скалы, поднимающейся на громадную высоту. (Примечание автора)
