the 9th, that the rise was equally general on the 10th but that it pro- 

 ceeded more slowly in the north-west than in the north-east. It appears 

 to have been owing to the slow recovery of pressure in North- West India 

 and the consequent retarding of the northerly wind in the upper atmo- 

 sphere, that the depression in the Arabian Sea appeared two days later 

 than the one at the head of the Bay. The recovery in the Punjab is 

 shown on the 13th and the delay appears to have been due to the forma- 

 tion of a slight depression over that area in much the same way as occurs 

 with cold season storms.
