Summary:

Thanks for his letter informing him of his having been awarded the Copley medal. Was pleased to receive the observations of the magnetic declination and inclination of London. Projected expedition of Captain J. C. Ross pleases him. C. F. Gauss is now preparing the third volume of the Resultate. Would like JH's opinion on one of the papers in this volume. Gives his own views on the magnetic poles.
