Summary:
It is a long time since he thanked him for the assistance in becoming a member of the R.S.L. and the R.A.S. Doubtless his work at the Cape was a great success. Hoped to visit England again but seems improbable now. Sends J. F. Encke's memoir for the R.S.L., R.A.S. and JH. Is very interested in his memoir on the variable light of Orionis. C. F. Gauss continues his magnetism.
