      Correct, specifically this is from an article Marx published in Neue Rheinische Zeitung. It was later reprinted posthumously in 1895 by Engels as part of the work The Class Struggles in France, 1848 to 1850. It was published in English in the 1920s. This passage is from Part II, entitled "From June 1848 to June 13, 1849"

      Here's a link to an English translation of The Class Struggles in France, 1848 to 1850: https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1850/class-struggles-france/index.htm
