Summary:

A recipe for currant wine for [Thomas] Johnes from "the American Transactions". Fears Smith's move to Norwich will be "the beginning of botanical coolness" that will spread to the Linnean Society. Has initiated a scientific correspondence with Sir Thomas Frankland but wishes it had commenced before he finished his paper '[Observations on the British] Fucus'; is planning an addendum.
On reverse of letter Goodenough notes: Dr [William] Withering has just sent me his works ["An arrangement of British plants"].
