* It may be observed that on the morning after this Aurora, there was a south 
west wind. It is said by English Meteorologists, that a wind from the south west 
usually follows soon after the appearance of the Aurora—It appears that the 
storm which commenced here Dec. 30, began at Washington twenty four hours 
earlier than at this place; the snow also fell to a greater depth,—there having been 
twenty inches at Baltimore, fifteen at Boston, and only ten at this place. It is wor- 
thy of remark, as first proved by Dr. Franklin, that storms generally advance 
against the wind.
