For a graphic representation of the normal conditions on the southern 

 hemisphere on the principle of Fig. 4, there are only observations from the 

 two stations, South Georgia and Cape Horn, which, indeed, are both 

 situated in the anti-polar section of the hemisphere, but have so Httle 

 difference in latitude, that they could scarcely serve as more than one 

 station. A glance at Fig. 5, however, will show decided indications — as 



Fig. 5. 



indeed Von Bezold and Schuster's chart would lead one to expect — of 

 a similar cyclonic system, with the current setting in the opposite direc- 

 tion about a point situated not far out of the line of direction to the 

 sun, in a south latitude considerably below 50°. In a similar manner we 

 may also say that there is an indication, though only a slight one, of an 

 anti-cyclonic system of currents on each side of the predominating cyclonic 

 system.
