 Sci-Philately - a History of Science on Stamps
In the years 1853-1860, Franciszek Mertens was a student of the high school in Trzemszno, another town of the Poznan region and then in the 1860-1864 studied mathematics at the University of Berlin which in that era was one of the leading mathematical centers.
The breakthrough year for Mertens was 1874 when two papers of his on the analytical theory of numbers appeared in the afore mentioned journal and constituted, augmented by later published work on related topics, a significant advance in the field.
Mertens' soujourn at the Jagiellonian University coincided with the repolonization of the university and that means that the matter about Auguste Dick wrote "Mertens sorach und schrieb Deutsch and Polnisch gleich gut" which equates his knowledge of Polish and German, had considerable importance.

 Sci-Philately - a History of Science on Stamps
Mertens is the well-known number theorist Franciszek Mertens who was born on March 20, 1840, in Schroda, Posen (a former Prussian province, now Sroda, in Poland), and died in Vienna, on March 5, 1927.
I find somehow unfair to state, as I've read, that "Mertens was a number theorist who is best remembered for his elementary proof of the Dirichlet theorem which appears in most modern textbooks".
According to Morris Kline [MT from A to MT, p.929], Mertens "assumed the theorem to be true for any given set of binary forms and then proved it must still be true when the degree of one of the forms is increased by one.
