Thanks for Orchids.
Plans to publish soon on hybrids.
Thanks AH for the chemical analyses [see JH's 1862-2-13]; gives fatherly advice about spending, or not spending, money.
Expresses concern about son John's loneliness in India, and so JH proceeds to tell him of the Great Exhibition of 1862, and about scientific work being done such as improvements in meteorology, solar photography, and the work being done on JH's catalogue of nebulae. No decision has been made about the Edinburgh professorship for which son Alexander has applied.
