Thanks for personal copy of JH's Cape Results.
[George] Peacock asks for more time for his review. Enough science in vol. 2 to tempt JH. JH should be the new editor for Brown. Will send Alexander von Humboldt a copy of the review unless he thinks it should come from the author and not the editors. Returns to Haileybury on Thursday.
