• Computed from Maiiry's Charts, 1st edition. The corrections made in the 2d edition have all been applied in Series 

 B, and the more important ones also in this Series and in Series D. The others are so smaU as hardly to affect the results 

 officially, so that a re-computatiou seemed unnecessary. 



* These results were computed, and the corresponding drawings made, before the reception of Lieutenant Maury's 

 Wind and Current Charts, which afford far more satisfactory data, and it is thought best now to retain them, as they 

 appear to be, for the most part, connect. 



' Obscrrations at sea, in the vicinity, are combined with those taken for two months at the island in order to complete 

 the year.
