Much the same with me. No further news of O'Connor, (I forward the "Transcripts" you send me, to him.) Rhys writes me that the Walter Scott, Eng[lish] pub's, will bring out my "Spec: Days" in one vol. & "Dem: Vistas, &c" in another. I have just sent on a little preface to S D. I forward a Peora paper—when you have read it, mail to Dr Bucke. I have just had an autograph hunter visitor, but with cheery talk and presence.
