Dr. Johann Friedrich Theodor Müller (1822-97): was born in Thuringia, and left his native country at the age of thirty to take up his residence at Blumenau, Sta Catharina, South Brazil, where he was appointed teacher of mathematics at the Gymnasium of Desterro. He afterwards held a natural history post, from which he was dismissed by the Brazilian Government in 1891 on the ground of his refusal to take up his residence at Rio de Janeiro (Nature, December 17th, 1891

We may first observe that the remarkable feelings induced by such experiences are very far from unpleasant, as we should expect them to be on the theory which refers them to the apprehensions and dangers of our primitive ancestors. Thus, on May 18, 1832, when the first impressions of a Brazilian forest were freshest in Darwin's mind, he wrote to Henslow, telling him of an expedition of 150 miles from Rio de Janeiro to the Rio Macao. 'Here I first saw a tropical forest in all its sublime

Though not about to encounter a foe, our lonely vessel was going to undertake a task laborious, and often dangerous, to the zealous execution of which the encouragement of our brother-seamen was no trifling inducement.

On March 18 the Beagle left Bahia, headed south to take soundings in the Abrolhos islets, which were reached in ten days.

Captain Robert FitzRoy was in his religious beliefs more fanatic, in his temperament more explosive, and in egotism more selfrighteous, than Jameson and Sedgwick.

Diary pp. 47-8 Darwin made plans for an expedition on horseback to an

I suppose we shall be here for 5 weeks: then to Monte Video which will be my direction for a very long time. With your nice letters I received a most kind and affectionate one from Henslow.

King and your humble servant have always agreed to an 'affigraffy' - the later results only confirm the former. The difference was between England, or rather Madeira, and Rio de Janeiro.

for Bahia once more, in order to investigate a discrepancy between her observations and the French chart. It turned out that although the relative positions of Bahia and the Abrolhos Islands were shown correctly on the chart, there was an error of four miles in longitude between the Islands and Rio de Janeiro. On this passage one of our seamen died of a fever, contracted when absent from the Beagle with several of her officers, on an excursion to the interior part of the extensive harbour of Rio
