To J. V. Carus 27 January [1872]
Summary
CD sends some sheets [of 6th ed. of Origin]. Informs JVC that he is having it stereotyped, so he can never again make any serious alterations. "The little strength left to me shall be employed on new works."

From J. V. Carus 14 July 1872
Summary
Asks whether he can start soon on translating Expression.
Thinks CD has gone a little too far on St G. J. Mivart’s objection, which he thinks did very little harm in Germany.
JVC’s history of zoology is finished [Geschichte der Zoologie bis auf Joh. Müller und Charl. Darwin (1872)].

To J. V. Carus 16 July 1872
Summary
Will send second proofs of Expression.
Glad JVC has finished translating Origin.
Assures him that Mivart’s book [On the genesis of species (1871)] has produced a great effect in England and America. CD has discussed incipient structures at some length because it enabled him to give many cases of gradation.
Asks JVC to note that he does not vouch for Expression’s being worth translating.
