          and about as much to mine. But if
you do not send them before this month is
out, send them to the care of the Vice 
President Major Dalaby; because Dickinson 
is going to Washington, he is member of congress.
His wife and daughter will go with
him.

Write to me at Hudson next week.
By the way, I received no box or bundle
from you for me. I received one for Dewey
with your double [bath?]. The package by
Dudgeonn I received. Dewey has received his [part?]
of it.

I sent a few things to Gibbs directly. I did
not send them to you; because of the [crossed out: ?] [fever?] trouble,
and because one Folger said he [can't?] deliver
it to him. I had not much to send 
however.

I paid the porter for carrying the package
to Dr. Mitchell, which you regret not paying.

Edwin James has gone to Muhlenburg College
[now?] where he was educated. The Faculty
there intend, if possible, to get a professorship
of Nat.[Natural] Hist.[History] & Chem.[Chemistry] established there for Edwin.

Your friend,

Amos Eaton
