Dr Ingen Housz's nts to Mr Jerem. Bentham, and
sends him back the th mes of his usefull work on the Panop
, which he was so generous as to send him, in the erroneous
opinion that the former Copy, he gave the Dr formerly, was incompleat.
The Dr thinks it wrong to keep it, when as he has allready a compleat
one. But he keeps the coper plates belonging to it, as there where none
with Compleat with the former ed copy — Mr Bentham aught to observe
that the three volumes the Dr sends back are not to be disposed of
as a compleat set. for, insteat of a 3th volume, the 2d volum is double.
if Mr Jer. Bentham will remembre to his brother his promise to
look for a siberian load stone, if he should have one left, he will oblige
the Dr. The Loadstones the Dr wants are not such as have a
good shape to be cut regularly. The wors figure of such stones are equaly
good for his purpose, as he wants them to pound them into a fine powder.
