Will be happy to supply a copy of the Cape Results [see GA's 1847-9-27]; the next asteroid should be called Flora, to provide 'young goddesses for Mars and Jupiter to admire.'
Smith, Elder & Co. wrote to all American intended recipients [of JH's Cape Results; see SE's 1847-9-23]. Still trying to get cooperation from American envoy. Asks JH's permission to publish now.
