My opinion of the detail became more favorable owing to my next sub- sequent experience in the government at Potsdam, to which I got transferred in the year 1837; because there, unlike the arrangement in other provinces, the indirect taxes were at the disposal of the government, and it was just these that were important to me if I wanted to make customs-policy the basis of my future. The members of the board made a better impression upon me than those at Aachen; but yet, taking them as a whole,... it was an impression of pigtail and periwig, in which category my youthful presumption also placed the paternal dignified President-in-Chief , von Bassewitz ; while the President of the Aachen Government, Count Amim, wore the generic wig of the state service, it is true, but no intellectual pigtail. When therefore I quitted the serv- ice of the State for a country life, I imported into the rela- tions which as a landed proprietor I had with the oflScials an opinion, which I now see to have been too mean, of the value of our bureaucracy, and perhaps too great an inclination to criticize them.
