General Macaulay who has been with us, boasts much of some pleasant hours spent with you in . He is a superior Man, brimful of information One of our best Orientalists. He is just returned from his second visit to the City of sin, whither he went to see his friend the Duke of Wellington.^* He is going again on a Mission about the French New Testament, which I am happy to say hi /a/ s /been/ circulated by many Priests, to the amount of three Editions. – I hope you have seen Mr. Roberts’ excellent Article on ‘The Church in Danger’ in the last British Review.^* I am glad to find that valuable work is in high repute.
