Translated by Howitt from a Swedish story called ‘Den Rätta’ by Swedish feminist writer Fredrika Bremer (1801-65), 'The Right One' was promptly translated back into Swedish after its publication in Household Words and published in a newspaper under Dickens’s name. See H. K. Riikonen, ‘Dickens’s Reception in Finland’ in Michael Hollington (ed.) The Reception of Charles Dickens in Europe, 2 vols. (London: Bloomsbury, 2013), II, p. 389. Such confusions were not uncommon. Dickens appears not to have been aware of the story's origins or subsequent embarrassing history; writing to Wills regarding the proof, he merely notes the story is ‘poor—but I think just passable’ (Letters 6, 447n.).

Featuring two poems, 'Heart's Home' and 'Autumn Farewell to Drottningholm',  translated by Anna Mary Howitt. The article attributes these poems to King Oscar of Sweden, presumably Oscar I of Sweden, as Oscar II would not come to the throne until 1872. Other sources attribute the poems to King Charles XV of Sweden, eldest son of Oscar I and the older brother of Oscar II.
