The average height of the thermoincter tor the wliole month is 47 OC : much hiohcr than 

 it has been many years, for the fame period, in the famefeafon: in Dec. 180.i, it was 

 38.3; in 1804., it was only 36 88; in i803, it was 40.4; and in 1802, it was 40 .-59. 

 The mean height of the barometer for the inoiilh is 29.55. The changes in the deiifity of 

 the atniofphere have been frequently coiifiderable, and very fudden ; that noted above is 

 the greateft, but feverul times a variation of 5, 6, or 7 tenths has been witnelTed in 24 

 hours. 



The principal feature of the month is that of warm rain, often accompanied with violent 

 winds. The thermometer has never been at ihe freezing point ; it has ftood durin;; tlic 

 *holc of 14 or 15 nights between 50" and 60°, which is a very unufual tircumftaute for 

 Uie feafoii.
