A Darwin Exhibition.
Christ's College opened the Darwin Exhibition, which has been assembled by the energy of Mr. A. E. Shipley and Mr. J. C. Simpson. (Emmanuel) last weekend. It is a very interesting collection of portraits, pictures, photographs, busts, manuscripts, books, and relics, including Darwin's first note-book of observations for his magnum opus, the first draft of the "Origin of Species," his letters to his publishers, his journal written whilst on the "Beagle" expedition, and many interesting personal objects. These are shown in the old library, where Darwin was wont to resort. His rooms in Christ's College will been view next week.
