1863 fieldpost letter sent during the Polish insurrection by Prussian Major General von Stuckradt, the commandant of Fortress Thorn, to Imperial Russian Colonel Prince von Wittgenstein in Wloclawek. The front of the letter is inscribed "military mail to be forwarded by Imperial Russian Captain Mikulicz." The back has a handstamped seal reading Royal Prussian Command Thorn. The letter, which is on stationery of the Royal Command of Fortress Thorn and is dated 2 October 1863, includes a copy of a report received that same day from the nearby Prussian town of Schulitz. That report by Second Lieutenant Spalding of the 5th Pomeranian Infantry Regiment No. 42 reads, "The steamship Praga owned by Count Zamoyski left Schulitz today pulling 10 barges, two of which are loaded with sulfur. From the newspaper I learned that the Imperial Russian Government at Warsaw has established an embargo on sulfur." This letter is evidence of the military cooperation between Russia and Prussia during the suppression of the Polish insurrection. Wittgenstein was military governor of Wloclawek. Count Andrzej Zamoyski was a Polish nationalist who owned a fleet of steamships on the Vistula River. The Russians had exiled him abroad in 1862 (Image)

1864 fieldpost letter sent during the Polish insurrection to Prince Sayn-Wittgenstein Berlebourg in Wloclawek. The Russian officer who wrote this letter was on patrol near the Prussian border. Wittgenstein was military governor of Wloclawek. The letter is dated 20 Feb. 1864 and reads, "Yesterday I was here in Sompolno for the big fair. I am sending you this special report to give Your Highness an overview of the situation. Within 20-25 versts of the Prussian border, there are bands of 20-30 insurgents commanded by Callier and Schelinsky. Five days ago they tried to cross the border but failed due to the vigilance of the Prussians. Now most of them are back in Chmielno in Prussia. There is no doubt that they will soon repeat the experiment. The situation in Sompolno is deplorable. The mayor, who was almost hanged once before, cries and asks for the troops that Your Highness had promised to send. We hear that we shall receive a battalion of the Olonetsk regiment from Konin. Fifty cavalry penetrated beyond Konin twenty days ago, captured the mayors of Sluzewo and Tuliszkow, hanged one of them, and looted the city treasury in the latter place. I think it is my duty to patrol this area, but I do not want to lose sight of the rest of the border. I believe that in better weather, cavalry will cross at Zakrzewo and infantry at Nowa Wies and Skulsk. Our patrols go out of Piotrkow to Skulsk. Perhaps until the battalion arrives, Your Highness will find the means to send one company, maybe from Izbica. One reserve company would be a big help! With Your Highness's indulgence. I'll end my report." (Image)
