Faraday to Schambein.

My dear Schoenbein

I have received thc packet safc from M. Rumpfand writc instantly to acknowledge it, with all thanks. But Ihave not any thing for Miss Schcenbcin; I think M. Rumpfmeans to delivcr, what you have sent, himself. Your daughterwas very well and happy last Frida}' evening, when I had thehonor to be in their Company at Stamford Hill

Ever Yours

2 Dec. 1858 M. Faraday.

Faraday to Schoenbein.

Royal Institution 19 Jan. 1859My dear friend

I have received your last of the I3th instant. 1You will be weary of my thanks nevertheless I send them.The peroxide of barium 1 have, has bcen very good in allformer experiments. I hope tomorrow it will prove as goodin those, I shall report from your last. I do not at all doubtit. The evening does not come off until the 2 5th of nextmonth, but I have sent the tickcts to Hampstead to Mr. Rumpf— and Miss Schoenbein — also to Miss Hornblower and otherswhom you know raorc or less. I have had some of the Germanpapers translated and hope I have get hold of the subjectthoroughly, if I can only kcep it; but memory is most trea-cherous and I am obligcd to look at every reading to seewhether ozone is 0 or ©. I stick it before my eyes, but thatis a clumsy way.
