Summary:
JS has now taken post of Curator of the Royal Botanic Garden, Calcutta.
Wishes to vindicate himself of the charge that he pursued his experiments at Edinburgh to the detriment of his work.
Apologises for poor quality of his Verbascum paper, which was written from his notes during the passage to India [J. Asiat. Soc. Bengal 36 (1865) pt 2: 145–74].
