Barometric Observations, &c. 



Col. Beaufoy has also favoured me with the observations made 

 at Bushy-Heath, as below : 



From a comparison of the observations made at Leightou 

 and Bushy, in March, it might be supposed that some addition 

 had been made to the quantity of mercury in the basin of my ba- 

 rometer, but no such addition or any alteration was made.

A Mean of Meteorological Observations for the last Seven Years. 



* Rain not ascertained in 1814. 



The above observations vvere kept and communicated by the 

 Rev. Edward Stanley, Rector of Alderley, Cheshire. 



NAUTICAL ALMANAC. 



It has been st.ited in the public papers, that an error of six 

 minutes in the plane of the moon's node, pervades the Nautical 

 Almanac for 1821, 1S22, and 1823: and that the obliquity of 

 the ecliptic is also incorrectly given. Should this be the case, 

 we doubt not tiie Commissioners of Longitude will correct these 

 errors in the subsequent numbers of that useful work.
