Sorry CD allows criticisms of Darwinism to worry him.
Sends notes on Fritz Müller’s letter.
Response to 6th ed. of Origin. CD’s answer to Mivart on initial stages of modifications is complete; the "eye and ear objection" is not handled so satisfactorily.
Has sent CD’s letter to Nature [see 8448].
Expresses admiration for H. C. Bastian’s The beginnings of life [1872] and comments on its bearing upon Origin.
Further reflections upon Bastian’s book [The beginnings of life (1872)].
ARW’s prospects for Directorship at Bethnal Green Museum.
Appreciation [of Expression]. ARW will review it in Quarterly Journal of Science [n.s. 3 (1873): 113–18].
Is not surprised CD dissents from his criticisms [of Expression?]. Holds to his own interpretation of the expression of astonishment.
Would be happy if ARW would undertake to help with correcting the proof-sheets of his revised edition of Descent. Outlines the job that would be required.
Discussion of his possible assistance on editorial work for revised edition of Descent.
CD’s son [George] could do the work [of proof-correction for Descent, 2d ed.] if ARW finds he does not care for it.
Thinks CD’s son George would be more satisfactory than ARW for the work on Descent.
Thanks for new edition of Descent.
His work on geographical distribution; drudgery and the often unsatisfactory nature of the result.
Encloses a letter to Nature [see 8448] correcting Dr Bree, who has accused ARW of "blundering". ARW should tear up CD’s letter if he does not like it or plans to reply himself.
