. Looking again, not to the separate parts or organs, but to the whole individual, one is sometimes tempted to conclude, falsely as I believe, that nature has worked for mere variety: thus when we hear2 that Mr. Bates collected within a day's journey, in a quite uniform part of the valley of the Amazons, 600 different species of Butterflies (Gre[a]t Britain has about 70 species), one may at first doubt whether each is adapted to its own peculiar different line of life; but from what we know of our own

in proportion of about 5/100 to the small individuals. They never carry anything but trot up down along the marching columns p. 181 Œcodoma Cephalotes. Mr Bates says the medium sized workers were occupied in cutting leaves, where there were few of the minute workers, which latter were in vast numbers in the dome of the nest. The very gigantic large headed workers were seen only when the nest was disturbed. In the main burrow there were vast numbers of the minute workers unmixed with any of a

[…] But for Darwin's persistent urgency, it is probable that the delightful narrative of Bates's Wanderjahre would not have been written. The following letters —notably that from Bates given on p. lxiii. —go to prove this, and, moreover, are of interest as showing how high an estimate of Bates was formed by Darwin even before their personal intercourse began.

[…] The letters which survive do not indicate the precise date when Bates first met Darwin and Hooker. But it may be gathered from the Preface to the Travels and from the more familiar terms of address which result from personal intercourse that he made their acquaintance in 1861. In a note contributed by Sir Joseph Hooker to the Reminiscences of Bates which appeared in the Proceedings of the Royal Geographical Society, April 1892 [Obituary of Bates], he says:— ''I first had the pleasure of

[…] Perhaps, next to Darwin's renewed encomiums on the book, the highest tribute was that paid by the distinguished naturalist, John Gould. He had long desired to sec the Great King of Waters, and when he met Bates after the appearance of the book, his first greeting was: Bates, I have read your book: I have seen the Amazons! Darwin wrote as follows:- HARTFIELD, TUNBRIDGE WELLS, April 30th, 1863. DEAR BATES, You will have received before this the note which I addressed to Leicester after

Charles Darwin to H. W. Bates. DOWN, BROMLEY, KENT, November 20th, 1862. DEAR BATES, ''I have just finished, after several reads, your paper. In my opinion it is one of the most remarkable and admirable papers I ever read in my life. The mimetic cases are truly marvellous, and you connect excellently a host of analogous facts. The illustrations are beautiful, and seem very well chosen; but it would have saved the reader not a little trouble if the name of each had been engraved below each

In January 1861 Bates married a young lady for whom he had kept a tender place in his heart during his long absence —Miss Sarah Ann Mason, of Leicester, by whom he had three sons and two daughters. Darwin writes to congratulate him and to hope that he may succeed, for the sake of science, in getting fixed near London. Meanwhile, he  was hard at work over his book, writing and re-writing the earlier chapters —some of them being recast three and four times before his severe judgment was
