Magnetism. — Under this head are included observations for inclina- 

 tion, declination, intensity, and hourly deviation of declination. The 

 hourly observations made at Port Kennedy were continued throughout 

 a period of five months; they have been discussed by Major-General 

 Sir Edward Sabine, R.A., President of the Royal Society, and are 

 published in the 'Philosophical Transactions' for 1863, vol. 153. The 

 entire series of magnetical observations have been laid before the Royal 

 Society; those for inclination possess more than ordinary interest, as 

 many of them were taken in the vicinity of the Magnetic Pole ; they 

 were made with one of Gambey's 9J-inch dip circles. The only other 

 magnetic observations which we possess from this interesting locality 

 were made by the late Sir James C. Ross, in 1830-31, when that 

 talented officer discovered the Magnetic Pole. 



Auroras. — Observations on the Aurora, its influence on an electro- 

 scope, periods of maximum and minimum atmospheric electricity, &c, 

 by Surgeon David Walker, M.D., are contained in Appendix No. VI. of 

 former editions of this work.
