PHILOSOPHY OF STORMS. 



Mr. Redfield adds, that " the 'whole series of gales, which 

 have occurred weekly since the 24th of November, are well 

 worthy of the attention of meteorologists ; and the rotative 

 character of each has appeared to be developed as clearly as 

 in the case now before us." I think the truth of this state- 

 ment quite probable, and I should be much gratified if Mr. 

 Redfield would lay the evidence which he has collected 

 before the public. I will aid him all I can in generalizing 

 the facts.
