Sending two volumes of her Fishes and explaining the reason for the delay.
Sending the Eloge on G. C. L. D. Cuvier. Plans to write a biographical memoir of Cuvier herself.
Is grateful for his letter and offer to show her any G. C. L. D. Cuvier letters. Was pleased to see his letter as she heard he was at the Cape in pursuit of constellations. What shall she do with the forthcoming copies of her book on fishes he ordered?
An eleventh number of her series on fishes is to be published. Hopes he will subscribe to it. Congratulations on his return.
