Has published a pamphlet on the True Figure and Dimensions of the Figure of the Earth, which he sends for his comments. Has had no success with G. B. Airy. Has found an error in J. F. Encke's work on the comet.

Thanks for the pamphlet on the Figure of the Earth, but regrets he cannot agree with its conclusions. Points out some of the more serious errors.

Thanks for his frank statement on his pamphlet, but would like his opinion later when he has studied it more thoroughly.
