All sheets [of Origin, 2d ed.] are ready. Has made a few corrections
and inserted Charles Kingsley’s sentence in answer to those who may think the book is irreligious.
Insists page numbering be kept uniform with 1st edition.
Intends to start immediately on the "larger work", with a distinct title.
Fears reviews will be unfavourable but is confident his views will ultimately prevail.
Asks about plans for French edition.
Thanks JM for his exertions on behalf of sales of Origin.
