216 Dr. Hale on the Meteorological Journal of Dr. Holyoke. 
Abstracts of the first thirty-three years of the journal have be- 
fore been published in the Memoirs of the Academy ; — the first 
seven years by Dr. Holyoke himself in the second volume, and 
twenty-six years in the fourth volume, prepared by Mr. Clap. In 
order to complete the journal in a uniform manner, similar tables 
are now published of the additional years. The former abstracts 
are prepared in four series of seven years each, with one imperfect 
series of five years. ‘The ten years now added are arranged in 
two series of five years each ; so that the whole period embraces 
seven series, the first four containing each seven years, and the 
last three series, five years each. I have added a table giving 
some of the more important results of the whole period, taken 
chiefly from Mr. Clap’s tables in the fourth volume, with the addi- 
tional years incorporated into it.
