About the health of Richarda Airy and that of JH.
Thanks CB for receipt of a meteorological work by CB's son [B. H. Babbage], now in Australia. JH says he grows stupider every day and is a 'prisoner in the bonds of bronchitic tyranny.'
Is pleased to hear of signs of recovery for RM from his ill health, and all wish him a complete recovery.
Inconceivable that JH merely writes 'J'accepte' (I accept) in response to the great honor AQ bestows upon him by dedicating his book to JH. Congratulates AQ on his 'fresh contribution to statistical knowledge.' Has just completed his catalogue of approximately 10,000 double and multiple stars.
Thanking him for copies of books. People at Collingwood are gazing at the eclipse. Concerning the astatic needle.
Thanks and a detailed description of the functioning of a pair of binoculars sent by JD to JH.
