Construction of JH's new instrument for photographing spectral lines is still incomplete, and A. E. Becquerel has already announced discovery. JH will return £100 granted to JH by R.S.L.

Discovered a mistake in Mr. Perkins's paper published in the Annals of Philosophy. Perkins has not yet corrected the error, although he was requested to do so.
Will not be coming to either meeting [see James Hudson's 1830-12-18], because JH has fully expressed himself previously on the matter of Southern Hemisphere observations, and had already asked to be excused from further association with Glass Committee and any other connection with 'that subject.'
Will forward JH's paper [',Amórfwta ...,' R.S.P.T. (1845), 143-53] to the R.S.L.
Notes interest expressed by Macedonio Melloni in meteorological observations. Urges that R.S.L. Council give its attention to the mass of meteorological observations that have accumulated.
