Summary:

Thanks for plants, especially the mosses and ferns, her "peculiar favourites". Hope they will meet Lady [Pleasance] Smith in the spring. Wishes Smith could admire the flowers in her garden. Hopes the translation of Jussieu is not suspended; eager to see him in "an English dress".
[Postscript by Susan E Corrie, daughter of Susan Corrie]: thanks Smith for his remembrance of them; they read his book every night.
