Discusses the political atmosphere in London and some family matters.
Thanks JH for JH's review of AH's Cosmos. Recommends E. H. DuBois-Reymond to JH's attention.
There being greater need of gold coinage than the Mint can presently meet, JH asks for additional staff and calls attention to a possible reason for the shortage.
Is grateful for his prompt reply to his request for friend to visit the Mint.
