The Philosophical Magazine has received a copy of the Correspondence of Sir Isaac Newton with Professor Cotes and others: 'I feel a serious responsibility, - in the first place that it should not fail to obtain a suitable Notice in some early number of the journal; - and, next, that the tone and temper of the notice should accord with the views which were maintained in the Philosophical Magazine on the occasion of the publication of the Flamsteed Letters [Francis Baily ed., 'An account of the Rev. John Flamsteed, the first Astronomer-Royal, compiled from his own manuscripts, and other authentic documents, never before published', 1837]. Could WW offer 'advice or assistance on this occasion in obtaining a Notice (whether short or long) worthy of the subject, and, in the main congenial with my own views'.

RJ sees no reason why WW should not publish his lectures ['Lectures on Systematic Morality', 1846]: 'They will be extremely useful to your class and out of them and your Elements ['The Elements of Morality, Including Polity', 2 vols., 1845] you may at some future day make up a finished work - an elaborated system by which you may be content to abide'.
