The publishers here have done a great service to science in reproducing this most recent work of Darwin's in a handsome and, for so elaborate a work, a cheap form.

He (Darwin) goes where his facts lead him, and or these he has an immense, but intelligibly arranged number; and has thus given to the breeder of animals, or the propagator of new varieties in the vegetable world, a treatise of great practical value, explaining all the laws of variation and selection that have thus far been definitely fixed.
