Mr Panizzi presents his compliments to Mr Fox Talbot and is extremely sorry he did not return in time to see Mr Fox Talbot at the Museum.
If Mr Fox Talbot can call to-morrow at 10 o’clock precisely Mr Panizzi will be very happy to see him, but at 11 the Queen of Holland is expected and Mr Panizzi cannot tell how long he may be engaged with Her Majesty.
