Seeks JH's approval, and signature, on a paper; does not wish to talk about copper coinage.
Understands JH's position [see JH's 1853-3-26]; expects the report will be taken to Parliament.
Does not know of the details of French or American coinage, but Augustus de Morgan has undertaken to find someone to help JH with this problem.
Responds to same request as JH identifies in his 1859-6-11.
Comments on a number of possibilities for the post at Trivandrum [see JH's 1850-3-20].
Believes the quality of the astronomical work of T. G. Taylor was certainly high [see JH's 1851-1-11].
Has made some efforts at suggesting places of employment to T. G. Taylor's son [see JH's 1851-1-11].
