A very warm day indeed. I was occupied at home in arranging the remainder of my coins which I find fall short somewhat. Then to the Officer. Occupied with my Accounts and Diary, also with finishing the Article I had already sketched for the Advocate. No news of any consequence. Called upon Davis for the purpose of asking him how he stood disposed to a visit to Mr. Everett this evening. He agreed to come to my house and start from there. Home, a little of Juvenal. Nothing of matter.

Afternoon finished the ninth volume of Thiers with the treaty of Campo formio. Also some of Madame du Deffand. Mr. Davis came according to agreement, but a heavy thunder shower had come up and prevented the possibility of starting. Miss Lydia Phillips was here also and took tea. Conversation. Davis stayed until late, and I read but a few lines of German.
