Sends first pages of JH's work on theory of probability. Asks for modifications.
Thanks for comments on AQ's Sur l'homme moyen. Translator of JH's work is too timid to allow himself to be known, but appreciates JH's compliments. Says practical statistics has progressed whereas philosophical statistics remains stationary.
Thanks for proofed pages. Received Astronomische Beobachtungen auf der Sternwarte zu Bonn. Finished determining by electric means the different observational longitudes of Leiden and Brussels.
Announces first volume of Physique sociale will appear soon. Discusses humans and law of nature. Says science is neglected in France.
Obtained and sent JH 2 copies of Physique sociale. Thanks JH for observations but they are too scientific for his lectures.
Is trying to get JH 2 copies of Physique sociale. Discusses additions. Addresses JH's comments concerning power of a supreme being. Sends 19th volume of annals of observatory and AQ's work on international congress on statistics.
Thanks JH for his positive judgement of his work. Mentions that [François] Moigno could only say that it was anti-religious. Another work on statistics has emerged: Versuch einer Sozialethik, 2nd. vol., by Alexander von Ochingen. In few days leaves for international conference on statistics.
