257, dated 22 Dec. 1883, is about the death of William Huskisson in 1830.

Discusses terms on which Mr Garnier will surrender his patent, crisis within the government:

Trinity College - If RJ is applying to the University press syndicate he should do so this term. There is a movement at large which wants to establish a professorship in political economy 'on nearly the same conditions as that at Oxford. It is to be established in honour of Huskisson [William Huskisson], by some friends of his - there are two difficulties: one to fix the mode of election the other to get rid of Payne [George Payne]. They wanted to put Malthus in as the first professor'. WW has sent another review of RJ's book to the British Critic ['Review of An Essay on the Distribution of Wealth and Sources of Taxation by the Revd Richard Jones', The British Critic, Quarterly Theological Review and Ecclesiastical Record, 10, 1831].
