Melrose - JDF has 'undertaken with Mr Airy's active assistance and liberal contribution of facts, to draw up what is intended to be a popular account of the Economy of an observatory; a subject certainly very interesting to amateurs and but little understood by them. It is intended for the Edinburgh Review'. His review of John Herschel's Results of Astronomical Observations made at the Cape of Good Hope, 1842, is to appear in the next Quarterly Review.
