Too ill to attend the South African Institution meeting; asks JH to turn in the packet containing TM's and JH's meteorological observations.
Commiserating on CB's calamity.
JH's last letter has given him great pleasure. Thanks for his hints about observations. The instruments at St. Helena Observatory. Payment of carriage on books sent abroad. Difficulties over the printing of the Cape observations. [François] Arago has sent him a paper on [John] Brinkley. Progress with the triangulation of the U.S.A.
Believes that the copies of the Nautical Almanac he sent him have gone astray. Is sending him the sheets of the Parramatta catalogue.
As MP for Cambridge, CL promises to extend influence of ministers of Church of England and uphold privileges of University. Asks for JH's confidence.
