Received JH's letter without the enclosure from C. P. Schönbein, but has now received a letter from Schönbein. Has advised him to come to the Southampton meeting. Has written his discourse and would welcome a paragraph from JH on physical science and on some of the foreigners expected at the meeting. What can he say about Carlo Matteucci? Had letter from William Whewell, who wishes to meet H. C. Oersted.
