This table tends to shew, that the veering in the storm took place succes- 

 sively in a N.NB. direction, and that it advanced at the rate of about seventeen 

 miles an hour, — which does not differ materially from the previous calculation. 



A similar result is obtained, by marking- the period at which the barometer 

 reached its lowest point, assuming that this depression was occasioned by the 

 storm.

This table does not specify the moment of greatest depression, at all the places, 

 so precisely as could be wished for ; — but, so far as it goes, it shews that there was 

 an interval of about twenty-six hours, between the greatest barometrical depres- 



* In this table it has not been thought necessary to reduce the time.
