We have received Tho following private letter
ron d scientific friend upon DarWin's new theory
ef Tie Origin of Specie. II sustained, the theory
il make an Rpturning IN all Our ideas Of scientific
divisions and ciassi6cationS. Darwin has been
twenty vears working up the book and this is only
Appletons have repnblished i, at aseheap price.
TN. II Evening Post,
You know II has always been problem to re.
ooneIe The wonderfully prolific nature Of animals
with THE limited amount of animal life. You know
pair at birds would produce in seven years some
/ thing like 2.036. Oh some such number SO with
plants, md other forms of life Well, this theory 81
Darwin II y ~ thus theory, applied To tho world
4 6f animals md plants. Thera II Il universal and
fearful struggle for existence, and the
larger anennt Of life i continually destroyed. What
/ II A that destroys
Darwin says not necessarily enemies, Of man, OF
i causes combined. Well, who survives Here il
thu point Tint Individual, of that species, will
always 30 To the wall, which IS, il however insig-
niiEant respect, untitled to resist these destruct-
i iye agencies And here IS Darwins theory that

The theory appears to knock Agassiz,s constant

told Darwin explains his peculiar facts in embryo
iogy On the principle of natural selection Darwin
does not seem to believe IN species At al, and
hardly In genera; he thinks nature works up very
distinct varieties By It'll natural selection from d
common stock. His facts are overwhelming and
