“On the origin of species, by means of natural selection 
London, 1860.” 
This is the virulent review of the Origin of Species which ap- 
peared in the Quarterly Review, 108, No.@15: p.e25-264. July, 
1860. The authorship was afterwards acknowledged by Samuel 
Wilberforce, then Bishop of Oxford. The article is accompanied 
by a seven-page MS. in the handwriting of Charles Darwin (Cf. 
No. 143) refuting the extraordinary statements in the Review. 
These notes were prepared by Darwin for Sir Joseph Hooker, and 
suggest points of attack against the Bishop. This appears to be 
the actual copy of the article in Hooker's hands in his speech at 
the British Association in Oxford, 
July, 1860, when the Bishop (“Sam Oxon”) was dramatically 
refuted by Huxley, Hooker, and others.
