OF THE ATMOSPHERIC TEMPERATURE. £03 



general tables of mean temperatures, given in Section I. Observations of a later 

 date than 1870 are included in our table. 



The tabular values are taken from a large manuscript collection, which embraces 

 the observed monthly extremes for every year separately ; in this form the table 

 was found far too bulky to conform to the plan of this paper, and only an abstract 

 of the manuscript is here presented. 



The headings to the table give all the explanation needed. To render it easy 

 to refer to the general tables for any further information, the table of extremes is 

 arranged alphabetically, by States or Territories, and the stations in each are also 

 given in alphabetical order.
