DOCUMENT 123.
CHRISTOPHER WOLF100 TO E. BENZELIUS.*
I received recently your most welcome letter,
which was handed to me by your relative, the most noble
Swedenborg, who was known to me by name already. I value
his most celebrated work in mineralogy so much the more, be
cause in the present age scarcely any one can be compared
with this most excellent and clear-headed man in this de
partment.
September 1, 1736.

LARS BENZELSTJERNA TO SWEDENBORG .+
To Assessor E. SWEDENBORG.
Most honoured and dear brother,
I, as well as all your friends and relatives, re
joice most heartily at your being in good health, and at having
arrived safely again in Paris, of which your last welcome letter
of May 14 assures us. You are quite right in supposing
that things have changed here considerably since your depar
ture. In our sphere, in the Royal College of Mines, things
are in statu quo, i. e. they have not changed since President
Ribbing’s 101 death brought us for president Baron Rålamb;103
* This letter is found in the “ Benzelius’ Collection" ofletters, Vol. XIV,
No. 188, at Linköping.
+ " Bergius’ Collection," in Stockholm , Vol. XIV, p. 298.
