 Philosophical Transactions for 1847, pt. i., p. 54; (4) Observ- 

 ations made at the Magnetical and Meteorological Observatoiy 

 at the Cape of Good Hope, 1841-1846 ; (5) Observations made 

 at the Magnetical and Meteorological Observatory at Hobarton 

 (42° 52" S. lat., 145° 7" E. long.), in Van DiemerHs -Land

 the Separation of the Eastern and Western Disturbances, see 

 vol. ii., p. ix.-xxxvi. ; (6) Magnetic Phenomena within the 

 Antarctic Polar Circle, in KerguelerHs and Van DiemerCs Land 

 {Phil Transact, for 1843, pt. ii., p. 145-231); (7) On the 

 Isoclinal and Isodynamic Lines in the Atlantic Ocean, their Con- 

 dition in 1837 (Phil. Transact, for 1840, pt. T., p. 129-155); 

 (8) Basis of a chart of the Atlantic Ocean, which exhibits 

 the lines of magi\etic variation between 60° N. lat. and 60° 

 S. lat. for the year 1840 (Phil. Transact, for 1849, pt. ii., p. 

 173-233); (9) Methods of determining the absolute Values, 

 secular Change, and annual Variation of the Magnetic Force

 greatest intensity of the force in both hemispheres, and of 

 the increase of inclination, p. 216; (10) On the Amount of 

 Magnetic Intensity in the most Northern parts of the New Con- 

 tinent, and upon the Point of greatest Magnetic Force found by 

 Captain Lefroy in 52° 19" lat. (Phil. Transact, for 1846, pt. 

 iii., p. 237-336); (11) The periodic Alterations of the three

 Period of the frequency of Solar Spots, discovered by Schwabe 

 at Dessau (Phil. Transact, for 1852, pt. i., p. 121-124). The 

 observations of variation for 1846 and 1851 are to be con- 

 sidered as a continuation of those indicated in No. 1, as be- 

 longing to the years 1840-1845. 



1839. Representation of magnetic isoclinal and isodynam- 

 ic lines, from observations of Humphrey Lloyd, John Phil- 

 lips, Robert Were Fox, James Ross, and Edward Sabine. 

 As early as 1833 it was determined, at the meeting of the 

 British Association in Cambridge, that the magnetic inclin- 

 ation and intensity should be determined at several parts of
