  I became also acquainted with several other men older than me, who did not care much about science, but were friends of Henslow. Yet these phenomena are so conspicuous that, as I declared in a paper published many years afterwards in the 'Philosophical Magazine' ('Philosophical Magazine,' 1842.), a house burnt down by fire did not tell its story more plainly than did this valley.

summary:
  The letter, dated June 30, 1858, in which the announcement was conveyed to the Linnean Society, deserves quotation, as being the authoritative and accurate record of the circumstances which launched the Origin of Species upon the world: The accompanying papers, which we have the honour of communicating to the Linnean Society, and which all relate to the same subject, viz., 'The Laws which affect the Production of Varieties, Races, and Species,' contain the results of the investigations of two indefatigable naturalists, Mr. Charles Darwin and Mr. Alfred Wallace. In consequence, says Fitzroy, an offer was made to Mr. Darwin to be my guest on board, which he accepted conditionally.

  He goes farther, and this volume is a protracted argument intended to prove that the species we recognize have not been independently created, as such, but have descended, like varieties, from other species. At each period of growth all the growing twigs have tried to branch out on all sides, and overtop and kill the surrounding twigs and branches, in the same manner as species and groups of species have tried to overmaster other species in the great battle for life.

  Charles Darwin: His Life Told in an Autobiographical Chapter, and in a Selected Series of His Published Letters

summary:
  Mr. Huxley allows me to quote from a letter an account of the happy chance that threw into his hands the opportunity of writing it:-- The _Origin_ was sent to Mr. Lucas, one of the staff of the _Times_ writers at that day, in what I suppose was the ordinary course of business. Darwin _v._

  I can well understand your reluctance to break up your large and happy party and go abroad; but your life is very valuable, so you ought to be very cautious in good time. Of other great literary men, I once met Sydney Smith at Dean Milman's house.

  When we, at Cambridge, had the satisfaction of receiving Sir J. von Haast into our body as a Doctor of Science (July 1886), I had the opportunity of hearing from him of the vivid pleasure which this, and other letters from my father, gave him. Mr. Huxley writes: Mr. Darwin abhors mere speculation as nature abhors a vacuum.

  More Letters of Charles Darwin — Volume 1 A Record of His Work in a Series of Hitherto Unpublished Letters

summary:
  This they at once obtain by acquiring a resemblance to other species which, from whatever cause, enjoy a comparative immunity from persecution. But supposing for an instant, in this and other such cases, that the record of the first appearance and disappearance of the species was perfect, we have no reason to believe that forms successively produced necessarily endure for corresponding lengths of time.

  More Letters of Charles Darwin — Volume 2 A Record of His Work in a Series of Hitherto Unpublished Letters

summary:
  This was no doubt the point most disturbing to Mr. Darwin, since it led Lord Kelvin to ask (as quoted by Huxley), Are modern geologists prepared to say that all life was killed off the earth 50,000, 100,000, or 200,000 years ago? The ocelli on the wing feathers were favourite objects of Mr. Darwin, and sometimes formed the subject of the little lectures which on rare occasions he would give to a visitor interested in Natural History.

summary:
  It looks as if it had required almost ten years for The Origin of Species to show its full effect, since the year 1868 marks the publication of Haeckel's Naturliche Schoepfungsgeschichte in addition to other great works. We find the same state of things in many other species, and in one case (Elymnias undularis) in which the male is also mimetically coloured, it copies quite a differently coloured immune species from the model followed by the female.
