The direction of the wind is indicated by the number of the point of the compass, reckoning N. = 0, E.= 8, S.=16, W.= 24. The 
motions of the three strata of clouds, Sc. (scud), C.-s. (cirro-stratus), and Ci. (cirrus), are indicated in a similar manner. 
April 21 35. Several peals of thunder heard to S., from 28 40™ till 81 0™; a shower about 34.
