Seemingly the advice is an answer Marx gave to an accordant question of Kugelmann in a previous letter. Until now this previous letter of Kugelmann is not published, so we don't know, what exactly was the question. MEGA publishs in its section three not only the letters written by Marx and Engels (as the usual editions do) but also the letters to Marx and Engels. But until now only the letters until December 1865 have appeared.
