Thanks AQ for meteorological observations for September 1838 and other materials sent. Singles 12 and 13 November as extraordinarily clear. Observed a 'paucity of shooting stars' and an Aurora Borealis.
Thanks for duplicates of horary observations. Requests that AQ and his associates cease them after December 1838. Questions 'whether any and what' corrections are applied to observations. Has successfully seen second satellite of Saturn.
