Darmstadt, September 9, 1868.

No. 7.]

My Lord: Upon the receipt of your lordship’s circular dispatch of the 11th ultimo I addressed a note to Baron Dalwigk, of which I have the honor to inclose herewith a copy, and I have now received from his excellency the answer, of which a copy is likewise herewith transmitted.

Your lordship will learn from this correspondence that children born of alien parents within the grand ducal dominions retain their “status” as aliens, unless they are appointed to a public employment in the grand duchy, or are naturalized by a special act.

I have, &c.,

R. B. D. MORIER.

The Lord Stanley, M. P., &c.

Baron: Having been instructed by my government to furnish it with a report concerning the laws relating to the nationality of children born in the grand ducal territory of parents not natives of the grand duchy, I have recourse to your excellency’s kindness, begging you to be pleased to furnish me with information concerning the laws in question.

I avail myself, &c.,

R. B. D. MORIER.

His Excellency Baron Dalwigk, &c., &c., &c.
