Notices of the Excessive Heat during some Paris of the late 

 Summer (1825.)* 



1. Observations on the Heat, S^c. at Brooklyn, New York, for 

 the month of July, 1825. The thermometrical observations 

 exhibit the lowest temperature in the morning and evening, and 

 the highest during the day. The loivest are from a thermometer 

 always out of doors; the highest from one in an open hall, where 

 no refraction or reflection can have effect. Communicated by 

 the Rev. Dr. S. Woodhull.
