| Date | 25 October 1861 |
| Description | No clear statement regarding publication in the 'Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society'. Considers all the conclusions to be erroneous, but as the paper continues earlier work by the author it maybe should be published. Refers to work by Reiss/Biess [?].
