wavy description. They are said by the foreigners often to produce

On the 10th of November, the whole squadron was assembled in the 

 harbour of Apia, after having been actively engaged since the 8th of 

 October in examining the different islands, and making surveys of their 

 coasts and harbours, &c. This work was all expeditiously and well 

 done, with the exception of the south side of the island of Upolu, which 

 was imperfect in some respects ; it was consequently re-surveyed in 

 the following year, and the charts finished. Besides the surveys, full 

 series of experiments were made in magnetism, and extensive collec- 

 tions obtained in natural history, botany, &c, the islands being 

 traversed by parties in several directions for this purpose. For the 

 results in these departments, the reader is referred to the Reports of 

 the Naturalists ; and to the Hydrographic Atlas, for the charts.
