Problems of getting books into and money out of Europe. On his exchanges with Butler and the (small) chances of making peace. (Edward?) Copleston remarks that Butler quotes from out-of-date editions

Unhappy that PE does not contribute to the Museum Criticum but rather to the Classical Journal (despite criticising the latter). B's brother has given the Museum Criticum to Wolf in Berlin, and brought back a number of Greek publications.

PE apparently in or en route to Rome. Asks him to get someone to collate any mss. of Aeshylus he comes across (and will pay). Also to buy a Eustathius if he finds one. Also anything recent by Boissonade.

PE went ballooning in Paris. Praise of Boissonade. Gaisford has published 1st vol. of Poetae Minores. Parisian scholars - has just got the 1st vol. of Bekker's Anecdota. Progress of printing the Persae - has made a hasty collation of a Persae ms. at Lambeth...should he therefore send a copy to the archbishop? 900 copies of the Septem have been sold out of a 1,000 printed.

PE's progress on Helen? Thanks PE for his last contribution to the Museum Criticum.

Paris mss of Aesch. Review of Porson Hecuba in Edinburgh Review attributed to PE - B notes coincidence with his 2nd ed of PV, and hopes PE will not think he is poaching; also chides PE in following Brunck and Butler (Samuel Butler, HM of Shrewsbury).

Postponement of review of Butler in Ed Rev. General remarks on policy towards Butler. Policy of Ed Review towards classical scholarship. Effort of editing Porsoniana (published as Adversaria). Some obscure abuse of scholars,inc Valpy (Richard?).

Abuse of Classical Journal and Valpy (editor). Asks for PE's advice on passages in the Septem Contra Thebas, and flatters him. About to move near Oxford, and hopes to meet Gaisford.

Abuse of Classical Journal. Proposal for a new journal (for the moment to be kept secret, and to be called The Cambridge Literary Journal)) to be run by Monk, Kaye, Kennel, Blomfield and brother. Asks for support and contributions.

Thanks PE for Heraclidae. Monk not the author of some 'silly' letters in the Gentleman's Magazine. Seeking another volume of Classical Recreations (by Barker, dedicated to Parr, printed by Valpy, publ. 1812).
