and fresh floats have been added from 

 time to time. I recommended that 

 a new one should be placed near it, 

 and the result is that the old one re- 

 cords nearly 25 per cent too little. 

 Sheltered on the E. by a row of elms 

 about 35 ft. distant, and perhaps 50 ft. 

 high. All else clear. 



Good position in kitchen-garden. 'When 

 visited, was found on a pedestal, so 

 that the funnel was 6 ft. above the 

 ground, from which pedestal it had 

 more than once been blown down ; 

 suggested that it should be placed on 

 the ground ; agreed to. 



Good position, in centre of town. 

 Gauge on a pedestal like No. 186, 

 but securely fastened. Would be 

 leather sheltered if lower. 



In a railed enclosure around the Ob- 

 servatory, the nearest angle of which 

 is only 7 ft. distant in N.W. and 

 14 ft. high. 



On lawn, rather sheltered by shrubs in 

 S. and S.S.W., about 6 ft. high and 

 6 ft. distant. 



Very near to No. 187, in an open field 

 nearer to the railway. 



On lawn, clear of trees, and with a level 

 tract for some distance roimd. 



In a sunk garden, surrounded by hedges 192. 

 and the house and trees, but none 

 are very close. 



On the beiich, in a very exposed position . 193. 

 Gauge fastened to a short post, and 

 enclosed by a palisade 6 ft. square 

 and 3 ft. 6 in, high. 



On the top of Beachy Head, about 194. 

 100 yards W. of the Coast-guard
