Summary
Regrets sending his MS missing two pages.
Has proofs of his paper on the monoecious spikes of maize [Edinburgh New Philos. J. 2d ser. 19 (1864): 213–20].
J. H. Balfour objected to notion of maize descent from a hermaphrodite.
Reading of JS’s paper on Selaginella hybrid [Edinburgh New Philos. J. 2d ser. 19 (1864): 192–9] deferred until March. Believes it is first example of experimentally produced hybridity in higher cryptogams.

After ‘numerous experiments’, Scott believed he had produced the first hybrid cryptogam; by mixing the microspores of one species of the club-moss Selaginella with the macrospores (now called megaspores) of what he argued was another species of the same genus, he crossed the two plants ( Scott 1864c , p. 195). See also Correspondence vol. 10, letter from John …

Summary
Thanks for CD’s consoling letter. His mind cannot concentrate after losing his position, and he feels "an inward dread of life’s future". Would have been glad to work for CD. Understands why Hooker cannot recommend him.
