Itchenstoke - RCT apologises for his unceremonious leavetaking at Trinity Lodge last week, but he felt he should make room for late comers. He has been informed by the Bishop of Oxford, 'a few days since, of the purpose of Government to issue such a Commission [into the universities] as you have alluded to. Indeed he spoke of it, & apparently with knowledge, as already issued. He did not think that Ministers had any purpose of again attempting to compel the universities to admit Dissenters - but that the expressed purpose of the commission would be to enquire whether the universities could not be made, as regarded the members of the Church, more adequate to the needs of the present time. I am not aware whether the Bishop knew who the members of the commission were or would be. He only stated that no one concerned with the University Education would have any place on it - & that it would contain a good number of sufficiently unfriendly names'.

George Green and EB are grateful to WW for all his help with the printing and distribution of GG's memoir. Sends WW another memoir to WW by GG: 'the Cambridge Transactions ought to lead all others in mathematics. I am convinced that the want of them is deemed an affectation - You are right about practical analysis - the age of the Warings, the Quixotic Chivalry of science is gone for ever'. George Peacock's algebra - '(to use a comparison) he still begins the Differential Calculus from Velocities'. Richard Jones 'is certainly a very able man - his idea of the labouring Classes gradually coming under the domain of Capitalists, is striking and true'. The 'moral machinery' of industrialisation 'has not kept pace with the population'. WW's Bridgewater Treatise 'is very striking - It certainly places the whole affair on a new and solid foundation'. For EB 'the Belief of a Deity from a view of nature is a matter of impression - what brings direct conviction to my own mind would appear absurd to another, and I never could announce it without hesitating'.

Royal Observatory Greenwich - GA formally communicated Ross's [James C. Ross] scheme to the Admiralty but received no answer: 'It does not consist of my notions of propriety to go to the Treasury for a matter which must be managed by the Admiralty, unless that Admiralty had given an answer in this shape "We are desirous of doing it, but have no funds"'. That was how he gained funds for the Trigonometrical survey via the Royal Society memorial to the Treasury. GA thinks 'it would be best still to operate privately upon the Duke of Northumberland. If any thing is to be done formally, I suppose that Sabine [Edward Sabine] is the right person'.

Is a sculptor, and went to 'Amadeus' as another night out, but found it profoundly illuminated her own experience as an artist constantly tangled by the labyrinths of administrators, and the power games played, particularly towards her as a woman: 'Salieri, so skilfully highlighted upon that stage, underlined just why power games are so serious to the players'; she left the theatre with 'eight years of social ambiguity and frustration ... succinctly brought into focus'.

WW will consider how to bring the question of separating the professorship from the living to the Trustees [see WW to CJH, 1 Nov. 1848]. He enjoyed his short stay at JCH's and had a good journey back to Cambridge.
