I should like, upon the express request of the person concerned, and, moreover, for material reasons, M.

DE LAURENS those of second secretary at Tokyo; I have pointed out to Your Excellency how much I desired this. M. DE MARGERIE agrees to M. DORGET'S appointment to Peking. I expect to leave for Tokyo during the month of June. M. DE BOISSESON will follow me there in July, the time at which M.
