tbe months of March, July, December, and February : and the full moons of 

 October, November, January. Both the setting in and the breaking of the 

 great frost happened on days exempt from lunar influence. On the whole, the 

 trial turns out more in favour of the moon this year than it did the last. But 

 still the changes were many more on the days confessedly exempt from her 

 nfluence, than on those which have been supposed to be the most subject to it. 



The greatest monthly height of the barometer was only 4 times in this year 

 accompanied with a n. e. wind, namely, in the months of April, June, Novem- 

 ber, and February. It was 3 times attended with a s. w. namely, in March, 

 May, August, September, and December ; and the greatest height observed 

 in the whole year was one of these, namely, in the month of March. Once 

 it was accompanied with the e. wind, namely, in January ; and twice with a 

 n. w. namely, in July and October. The least monthly height was once 

 accompanied with a n. e. namely, in January ; 6 times with a s. w. namely, in 

 April, May, August, October, December, and February ; twice with the s. 

 wind, namely, in March and September ; once with the n., namely in July ; 

 once with a s. e. in June ; and once with a n. w. in November.
