Returns with grateful thanks the example of photographs recently sent him. They open up a new field of curious processes. Will not have much time this summer for photographic experiments as he is carrying out a series of investigations into the air of mines. Has been experimenting with the cyanurets.
Sends back the slips. Does not approve of the phrase transcendentalists. Regrets that the subject forms a review; it is worth a treatise. Is working hard on his book. Would like to raise some rose trees for Lady Herschel.
Sends check for £100 being payment for JH's article on William Whewell's book. Will always be pleased to receive suggestions.
Comments on a paper on the calotype by W. H. F. Talbot, adding some experiences of his own on the subject.
Will be receiving the official news soon that JH has been nominated Knight Commander of the Order of Dannebrogg. New magnetic observatory to replace the old one. Is grateful for JH's excellent song about the telescope.
Expresses his great appreciation for informing JH of the honor being conferred by making JH a Knight Commander of the ancient and venerable order of Danneborg.
Sends JH sample of chemicals and paper to make calotype himself.
Is thrilled about 4 aides to help with meteorological and magnetic observations. Points out that number of stations participating in horary observations increased to 22. Lists them. Hopes to go to Plymouth [B.A.A.S. meeting].
