Discusses prospects for meteorological committee of B.A.A.S., on which they both will serve. Lacks time for it. Does not need hourly observations made by Committee of Physico-Mathematical Society of Edinburgh.
Writes 'in haste' to thank JF for a pair of papers. Comments on Louis Daguerre's pictures in Paris.
Regrets that JH had to write another letter regarding the two papers he forwarded. Missed him when in London. Saw L. J. M. Daguerre's specimen and also those of J. N. Niepce, the latter undoubtedly the originator. Has made an excursion to the volcanic region of the South of France.
