Invitation to visit; Hooker will be present. Gives directions to Down. Also plans to invite John Lubbock over for an evening.
French translation of 3d edition of Origin has been greatly delayed.
Very pleased with CEB-S’s intent to write a review and with his near agreement. CD believes that so many really good judges concur with him in the main that his views will ultimately prevail. Continental reviews have been more positive than British ones. Édouard Claparède’s ["M. Darwin et sa théorie de la formation des espèces", Rev. Ger. 16 (1861): 523–59; 17 (1861): 232–63] is too favourable.
Thanks correspondent for his excellent review [of French edition of Origin (1862)], which he feels will help the spread of his views in France.
