Has traveled down the River Po in a steam boat, became seasick in Venice and has caught a bad cold in Germany due to the bad weather. Describes the Royal family of Bavaria in glowing terms, a view shared by the Bavarians themselves, he contends. Gives descriptions of Prince Eugene, Guardian viceroy of Italy who is married to one of the King of Bavaria's daughters, and of the King himself. Believes that outside of the Court circle there is very little society, proved by the lack of dinner invitations received. Describes the new Art Gallery and suggests that the architect of the Fitzwilliam Museum, 'whenever it shall be built', should pay a visit. Is also complimentary of the Observatory and astronomical equipment. Has been told that the astronomical equipment being produced in Germany is of higher quality than that of England, and that Italian and German research is over taking that of the English due to this fact and also mentions other engineering innovations. Discusses the German nature as opposed to that of the English, especially regarding jealousy. Also notes the hatred prevalent on the Continent due to the 'horrible business.' [Refers to the attempt by King George IV in 1820 to gain a divorce from his wife, Caroline of Brunswick, thus excluding her from the title of Queen] Mentions a number of other sights in Munich including a description of the workings of the House of Correction and the English Garden.
