Asks JDH not to think of looking at his species sketch until he has leisure.
Cirripede observations.
Would like to hear what JDH has to say about his species sketch.
On the results of Robert Bunsen’s journey to Iceland, which he compares in detail with his own research.
"I have for the present given up Geology, & am hard at work at pure Zoology & am dissecting various genera of cirripedes, & am extremely interested in the subject." "I always, however, keep on reading & observing on my favourite work on Variation or on Species, & shall in a year’s time or so, commence & get my notes in order."
Encloses 12s for the year.
Anxious for February number of the Journal.
F. J. Muñiz has offered fossil bones collected around Buenos Aires to the Royal College of Surgeons. He believes he can complete their Megatherium skeleton and provide other specimens. CD feels he should be encouraged in his work.
Concerning the purchase of shares.
If FJM wishes to sell the fossils he has discovered, CD suggests he appoint some agent to dispose of them.

Offers to send his South America.
Greatly admires FJM’s zeal
