Excerpt from Louis Agassiz: His Life and Work In his biographical memoir, read before the National Academy, Arnold Guyot, the life-long friend of Agassiz, said: "Permit me here to allude to one of the providential circumstances of Agassiz's life, which enabled him to perform so large an amount of work, and to do it cheerfully as well as efficiently. I mean his marriage, in 1849, with a distinguished daughter of his adopted country, whom we all know without naming her, and all admire and respect. In this constant and devoted companion of his American life he found a wise and affectionate mother for his children. Her sound and firm judgment, her well-balanced mind, gave him much needed help and encouragement in the midst of sometimes complicated circumstances. Her literary talents, to which we owe the interesting record of his Brazilian journey, the picturesque account of the Florida reefs, and perhaps the final appearance of more than one of his late works, are acknowledged by all. Her deep and absolute devotion, her soothing influence, secured for him the peace of mind and heart so necessary for an undisturbed mental activity. To her also science owes a tribute of gratitude."

Excerpt from Life, Letters, and Works of Louis Agassiz, Vol. 2 Agassiz was in complete ignorance of what had become of Burkhardt Since he left the glacier Of the Aar and Neuchatel in 1843. But Burkhardt, learning through the newspapers that Agassiz was delivering a course of lectures, gladly called on him and told his pathetic history, his attitude and appearance amply proving that life in the streets Of New York under such conditions was a difficult one to endure. Agassiz, always Open-handed and generous, received his old artist with great kindness, and offered him a home, on the single condition that he Should draw his zoological Specimens. The unfortunate artist was only too ready to accept any Offer, or, more correctly, any arrangement, which prom ised a living; and with that lack Of Specific agreement which always characterized Agassiz's connection with his assistants, he resumed his position as draughtsman, and was brought by Agassiz to East Boston, on his return from New York, at the end of November, 1847. This hap-hazard association lasted until the death Of Burkhardt, and is the only one, of all those formed in the same way, during the life Of Agassiz, which remained undisturbed.

Excerpt from Reply to the Criticisms of James D. Dana: Including Dana's Two Articles With a Letter of Louis Agassiz Mr. Dana has devoted a page of his Review to this Syn apsis, and concludes by the following sentence: without further specifications it is plain that in this History the author has neither dealt fairly with others or the subject. The History of Geology is a matter of facts and dates, beginning in 1809, an epoch quite near, and therefore easily verified. I gave all the discoveries with the date at which they were made, as I believed truly and impartially; - if Mr. Dana thought I had dealt unfairly with others and the subject, he had only to give facts and dates to show this, - but not at all; be con tents himself with personal abuse, and says at the conclusion of the article that I have expunged names from American geo logical history. Happily for me, Messrs. Dana and Rogers published severally an American Geological History, in 1856, and it will be easy to show by comparison, who merits the charge of having expunged names from American Geological History.
