The quantity of rain that has fallen since the ist of August is 2°6525fnches. The 
temperature has been low since the first of the month, and the barometer very unsteady ; ° 
still the weather has been propitious to the agriculturist, and the harvest is nearly com- 
pleted. : : 
N.B. As it is proposed to continue. these Reports regularly every month, it may be 
proper to state that the thermometer is observed three times every day—at eight o'clock 
im the morning, three in the afternoon, and ten at night ; and that the extreme of cold is 
ascertained by a self-registering thermometer; the height of the barometer is registered 
twice—at 8 a.m., and 10 p.m. The rain-guage is examined every morning at eight 
o'clock ; consequently the quantity measured shews how much has fallen since the pre- 
ceding morning, at the same hour. The direction of the wind given is that which has 
been most prevalent during the day, when it has been variable.
