Note 16 — Chapter 36 La Tribune des Peuples—Mickiewicz and Ramon de la Sagra—The Chorus of the Revolution of June 13, 1848—Cholera in Paris—Departure

Ramon de la Sagra (1798-1871), a Spanish economist, took part in the revolutionary movement of 1848 in France, and wrote advocating the views of Proudhon. In 1854 he returned to Spain, and was several times elected a member of the Cortes. He was, of course, not seventy, as Herzen mistakenly assumes, but fifty, in 1848.—(Translator’s Note.)
