I'm looking for sources of information freely available online about happenings in London the day July 1st 1858 (besides the famous Darwin-Wallace presentation, that is.)
I have found copies of the front page of The Times, but they are almost illegible and mostly full of advertising.

The first place that I would search is the British Newspaper Archive. Note that this site requires a subscription to actually view the newspapers, although it is free to search.
If you have a subscription, it is possible to zoom in on the high-resolution scans of the newspapers, making it easier to read the stories than it is with many of the originals!
Many libraries in the UK offer free access to the British Newspaper Archive online.
Use the Advanced search function and set the publication place as 'London' and choose an appropriate date-range.
Bear in mind that events occurring on 1 July may not appear in the newspapers until several days (or even weeks)) later. You should also remember that not every paper was published daily. Your date-range should reflect that.
It may take several iterations to refine your search until you are satisfied with the results.
For example, a simple search limited to the exact date 1 July 1858 gives 11 results.
Extending that to include 1 & 2 July 1858 gives 23 results.
Also, you should be aware that it was common for the front page of newspapers to be dedicated to adverts with news inside.
