These changes and variations of temperature are not large, but 

 they show, at least as regards Bengal and Assam, that a change began 

 in the north-east on the 23rd, was well-marked in North Bengal on the 

 24th, in South-West Bengal on the 25th, and in Orissa on the 26th. 

 They also show that the period of greatest departure from the normal 

 was between the 24th and 27th September in Assam, the 25th and 

 26th in North Bengal, and on the 26th in East Bengal ♦ These indi- 

 cate the progress of the change which passed over Bengal. The lar<yer 

 defect of the 80th in Lower Bengal, Orissa and the Circars is due to the 

 cloudy weather which became general with the formation of the de- 

 pression over Lower Bengal and the north of the Bay.
