The highest temperature of the seven years (82') occurred on June 9th 1835. 



The lowest of the seven years ( — 12") occurred on the morning of the 15th 

 February 1838; but such a low tempei-ature is very uncommon. The thermometer 

 has gone below zero, Fahr., only three times during the last 24 years. One other 

 of the occasions was on the morning of the 3d February 1838, ^vhen it fell to 

 2°. 



The crops of 1833, 1836, and 1839, were below the average ; that of 1838 greatly 

 deficient, and much injui'ed by the autumnal frosts. That of 1S34 was unusually 

 productive in grain.
