          trade price $1.20. Will you, thro [through?] Charles 
 or the agent you spoke of, supply your boys &c,
 and in Sept. [September] return the trade price for those 
 sold, $5.40, will thus be made if all are sold, wh. [which]
 which you may give to Mrs. T. [Torrey] or do what you please with it.
 The trade price is all Wiley expects, and were you to give 
 him more, I should desire no benefit from it. 


 If you want more (which is not likely!!), a line to Wiley 
 will bring them. I suppose [Henry?] will want a copy
 for his friend Prof. [Professor] Henslow.


 The Tin coat, as our beloved Herbert calls it,
 is made, and I hope will, to a great degree, with God's 
 blessing restore the dear child. He is himself mightily 
 pleased with it.

 There you have it, in business fashion. 
 If your pocket happens to get plethoric in a month or 
 so please send or hand it to Wiley & Putnam, to go 
 against freight and other expenses they will advance for me.

 as well remain until autumn. I records it here, as I 
 have no memorandum.


 Suppose you write a puff on my book for your 
 Princeton paper, or that in Newark. I forget 
 the name. Darlington is to give a critique in
 Silliman.
