In such a bight, close to the high cliffs on the southern shore, the Beagle was moored. One may readily conceive

the lava country our time being out, and every one tired I decided upon walking overland as far to the westward as we could go in one day, and setting out on our return to the Beagle on the following day. I was the more inclined to this step, because the river made a turn to the southward, to follow which would have expended a day, without making any westing; and because I thought that some of our party might walk in a westerly direction, at least twice as far as they could track the boat.

Two barometers were used at the river side, and a very good one was carefully watched on board the Beagle (at the level of the sea). Certainly the rapid descent of the river in many places was such, that even to the eye it appeared to be running down hill. This remark was often made in the course of our journey.

It is noteworthy that the three facts which started Darwin on his train of thought do not figure in this exposition, and this is a measure of the amount of consideration which Darwin had given to the problem between the time when he was in the Beagle and July 1837 when he opened his First Notebook on Transmutation of Species.
