Bright sunny day—am feeling fairly—had a mutton-chop for breakfast, ate all—hope to get out early afternoon—Warren has gone off in the country—Lezinsky was here last evn'g—goes off west (to Chicago) to-day, en route I suppose to Cal—I could not make any thing very definite or satisfactory from his talk (wh' was very profuse) & I told him finally & summarily I guess I was exhausted, & to write plainly what he proposed & send me, when I w'd give him categorical reply—(If he writes, proposing any thing I will first show it you, & probably to Horace too)—

It is probable I shall not see the hansom any more—went out four miles north hence to what we call Pea Ridge Shore, a shallow bay of the Delaware, yesterday midday, in hansom—an enjoyable country drive—have rec'd a book ab't Dante &c. (pretty good, interesting) f'm Addington Symonds—a letter f'm Dowden—I send to both & many others, foreigners &c y'r piece in "Conservator," wh' reads well to me—have not sent my piece to Scribners, likely shall not—the enc: are a letter f'm Kennedy to you, (marked for me to open)—also an old one f'm K—I shall look for you Tuesday—
