Indian Science and Technology in the Eighteenth Century: Some Contemporary European Accounts c25.36

In the little packet that contains this letter I send you a few of our newspapers where you will find some little essays that may afford you amusement. They certainly are not fit for the eyes of a critic. But we ought to meet with great indulgence separated as we are from the aids of science. You will also find the seeds that in my last letter I commend so highly as an agreeable and nutritious vegetable. In this packet too you will find a piece of *Caute*, the cement for noses. I hope soon to write you more fully on some subjects that appear interesting to me.
