Summary:

Finally received parcel of Smith's works, all of which find "great favour" here; disappointed no supplement to any has been published. Hopes to receive "Linnean Transactions" vol 2, Smith's "Tour", and the new work Smith mentioned. Requests second volume of "Asiatick Researches" and asks if third part of "Speculi Linnaei" has appeared yet. His recently published work ["Museum anatomicum"] expensive but demand keeping pace with supply. Still awaiting a letter from Sir Joseph Banks.

Summary:

Thanks for parcel of books, just received, though disappointed it did not include two copies of third part of "Icones pictae"; requests that English and Latin versions be added with part 5 of "Botany and Zoology of New Holland". Will return spare copy of Smith's ["Sketch of a Tour on the Continent"]; so many copies have been imported into Holland there is no one to give it to. Received from Sir Joseph Banks not only a letter but also a human skull from New Holland. Requests second and third volumes of "Asiatick Researches".
