TitleSamuel Goodenough, Berners Street, London, to Sir James Edward Smith, Norwich, [Norfolk]
DescriptionThanks for the two volumes of "English Flora". Goodenough doubts the propriety of the Linnean Society opposing the new Asiatic Society's publication of descriptions of oriental productions to stop them from obtaining a charter as they would continue publishing without a charter, and in any case more publications excite more industry. Hopes [Alexander] Macleay [also spelt McLeay or M'Leay] did not propose it himself; suspects Joseph Sabine who is "warped by horticultural interests".
