II. Affairs of the Company.
I have no subscriptions to announce. My friends send me occasional
letters inquiring how I do, and what I am doing. Like Mr. Toots, I am
very well, I thank them; and they can easily find out what I am doing,
and help me, if they like; and if not, I don’t care to be asked
questions. The subjoined account gives the detail of Sheffield Museum
expenses to end of June. I am working hard at the catalogue of its
mineral collection; and the forthcoming number of ‘Deucalion’ will give
account of its proposed arrangement. But things go slowly when one has
so many in hand, not only because of the actual brevity of time
allowable for each, but because, of that short time, much is wasted in
recovering the threads of the work.
