Dining with the Lubbocks.
JL’s paper on respiration of insects ["On the distribution of the tracheae in insects", Trans. Linn. Soc. Lond. 23 (1860–2): 23–50].
Voting to elect JL [a member of Athenaeum].
Thanks JL for saving him from "a disgraceful blunder". Following their conversation he has divided the New Zealand flora as JL suggested and finds genera with four or more species are more variable than those with three or less. It will take several weeks to go back over all his material.
Asks JL not to call as he has a "very old friend" [J. S. Henslow] coming to visit him.
Yesterday visited poultry show at Crystal Palace.
Invites JL to dine and meet J. S. Henslow.
Huxley and William Sharpey praise JL’s paper [? on Daphnia, Philos. Trans. R. Soc. Lond. 147 (1857): 79–100] at Philosophical Club.
