XVIII. A Sketch of the Progress of Science respecting Igneotis 

 Meteors and Meteorites during the Year 1823; including an 

 Account if the principal Phcenomena of that Nature observed 

 during the same Period : with Inquiries suggested by those 

 Subjects. By E. W. Bkayley, junior, A.L.S., and Member 

 of the Meteorological Society*. 

 T^IIE arrangement and publication of an annual historical 

 -*■ detail of the progress of meteorological science, in its 

 several blanches, and of the atmospheric changes and phe- 

 nomena observed in the various regions of the globe during 

 each successive year, appears to be an object well deserving 

 the attention of the Meteorological Society. A summary of 



* Read before the Meteorological Society, May 12, 1824; and published 

 bv permission of the Council: with additions by the author.
