Abstract
[We print “Parallax's” letter, but we warn everybody against accepting his challenge. Mr. Wallace's treatment at the hands of these gentry shows us what to expect. Let “Parallax” take a good telescope and a return ticket to some seaside place and watch the ships travelling to and fro over the horizon. We offer him space in NATURE to detail his observations, and to explain them, if he can, on any other theory than the received one.—ED.]
