Obliged to JM for acceding to request for an additional £50 [for Journal of researches, 2d ed.]. Will reconsider title when type is set up. Gives up the map. Writes about other details of publication.
Has sent off MS of first part [of Journal of researches, 2d ed.]. Has so much to add about Fuegians [at beginning of second part] and so much to condense and rewrite in scientific part that he may not have second part ready at end of month; it depends on his health, which is good lately.
Writes to report progress on MS of second part [of Journal of researches].
Asks JM to look at William Clowes’s arrangement of the title. CD had intended Journal to stand alone, so scientific part would be less prominent. His health is poor.
Agrees with JM’s criticism of preface [of Journal of researches, 2d ed.].
If copies [of part one of Journal of researches] are to be sent to periodicals for review, suggests Gardeners’ Chronicle.
MS for second part will be ready in four to five days.
