Abstract
PROFESSOR HUXLEY has referred Mr. Bennett to the highest authority for an answer to his reasoning on a difficulty in the theory of natural selection. Meanwhile, Mr. Wallace has replied on his own account. Upon the biological question I do not presume to touch, but I wish to say a word upon the mathematical one, especially as I cannot think Mr. Wallace has really met this part of the argument.
