Clarifies information in postscript of JH's letter of 5 Nov. to RS.
Measurements by A. T. Kupffer afford greater accuracy for [specific] gravity of water than values used by Henry Kater as quoted in postscript of JH's 5 Nov. [1867] letter to [WM].
Discusses coming year. Asks JH how to deal with JH's review [of AQ's Lettres sur la théorie des probabilités]. Talks about his friend [Michel] Chasles. Also about AQ's son. Mentions JH's translation of [J. C. F. von] Schiller's 'Spaziergang.'
