• By these 2 tables it appears that, of all the winds between the n. and w., 

 those from the point of n. w. were far more frequent than those from either side 

 of it. Of the winds between the s. and e., those from the point of s. e. were 

 more frequent than those to the e. of that point, and rather more frequent than 

 those to the s. of it; but the difference in the latter case was very inconsiderable. 

 Of the winds from all quarters, those from the e. s. e. and n. n. w. were the 

 most rare, especially the former. The numbers in the last columns of each of 

 the last 4 tables, are the sums of the preceding columns ranging in the same ho- 

 rizontal lines. They ought to correspond with the numbers in columns s. w. 

 N. E. s. E. N. w. of table 1, respectively, and serve as a check on the work in 

 making the tables. 



The general state of the winds collected from the preceding 5 tables, according 

 to their different degrees of prevalence, is as follows :

 The first snow on the 9th of

 after a rainy morning, set 

 in with a n. n. e. wind, and 

 was succeeded by a sharp 

 frost for 3-i- days, with the
