Honored Sir
Dr Wagner of Gotha bids me to convey to the Queensland Government his best thanks for the supply of the statistic documents for the diplomatic Almanac2 for 1872, and he wishes me to express his solicitation that annually any new issues of statistic interest concerning your colony may be supplied also in future, in order that always the latest and most correct account may be entered into the Gotha Almanac. As it is in the interest of Queensland itself, I have felt no hesitation to render the Editors wishes known to you The Almanac is now regularly in existence since 109 years and used at every court and ambassady.3
Very respectfully
Baron Von Mueller
