From J. V. Carus 15 April 1867
Summary
Asks CD to decide which translator he would prefer for Variation. JVC frankly thinks Carl Vogt not the best man to introduce CD to the German public, though he has a greater name than JVC.
Vogt now preaches materialism in its most absurd form.

To J. V. Carus 11 April [1867]
Summary
CD is delighted that JVC will undertake translation of Variation.
Agrees with JVC’s opinion of Haeckel’s book [Generelle Morphologie (1866)]. CD believes it is bad policy for Haeckel to speak so positively about a disputed theory [i.e., CD’s] and particularly regrets the severity of EH’s criticisms of other authors.

To J. V. Carus 16 September 1867
Summary
Thanks JVC for his biography [of CD].
Has almost finished first proofs of Variation.
Has difficulty in answering JVC’s queries about dogs because of differences in German names and breeds. Refers him to A. E. Brehm’s Illustrirtes Thierleben [1868] and, on pigeons, to Gottlob Neumeister’s book [Das Ganze der Taubenzucht (1837)].
Hopes JVC is not discouraged by first volume. Thinks second will be more interesting.

To J. V. Carus 17 February [1867]
Summary
CD thinks JVC’s preface is fair to Bronn. Regrets JVC has not added notes of his own, but, having dropped Bronn’s appendix, it is perhaps best to leave the text without comment. Rejoices that the German public can now judge the Origin fairly.
Has written to W. B. Carpenter for a specimen of Eozoon to send to JVC.
