938 Barometric Observations. 
N.B. From some remarks made by Mr. Bevan in the last 
Number of this work, as objections to my wheel barometer, it 
is necessary to state that the above observations were made with 
an upright portable barometer, manufactured in the best manner 
by the late Mr. George Adams, Fleet-street: that I have sent 
Mr. Farey the four sets of observations made with this barome- 
ter in June, July, August, and September, at the same hours as 
those published were made, and shall in future use it without 
making any reductions for temperature. 
Leighton, Sept. 22, 1821- 
Dear Sir,—lI beg leave to send you the observations made at 
this place on the barometer, &c. on the 10th instant.
