Discusses glass manufacturing.
Sends JH a pamphlet about meteorological observations in India.
Would like JH's account of his own method of fixing a photograph as noted in his memoir. Singular phenomenon of the Daguerreotype. Hopes to produce a photographic paper to equal the silver plate before the month has expired. Will let him know when his process is complete.
