Delighted by Smith's employment at Windsor; hears that the Queen [Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz (1744-1818)] wants to set up a botanic garden and he has been approached to send plants from Welsh mountains. Sending plant specimens for Linnean Society, will send lichens in next post. Hopes to send animal drawings via a friend. Has not seen a figure of the 'Pycnogonum'; Herbert's bad figure of the 'Cancer' [crab].
