As to the Rain at TLnrkhy I obferve, That although 
their Rains^are lefs frequent than ours in Ejffex^ yet they 
(eem to be more frequent than theirs at Eifa: but the 
quantity at Zurich is greater than at TJpminfier. and lefs 
than at Pifa, 
Tjs Dr. Scheuchzers Opinion, “That more Rain falleth 
in SwitzerLmd than in France^ at Zurich than at Paris,' 
To confirm which he givetb us this Table of eight Years* 
Rain at Paris, to which I (hall add mine for Vvmin-

It is manifeft from this Table, That the Zurich Rain’ 
laft Year ^although it amounted not to the Q^iantity 
^ which fell at 1 ifiz in a whole* Year, y^O exceeded' 
both the Paris and Vpmwfier annual Rains of 8 Years be- 
fore. But whether it confiantly doth fo or not, if God 
fl^are them Life, the future Obfervations which Dr. Scheuch^ 
zer and Dr. THU promife us will demonrtrate. 
But before I quit my Remarks on this laft Table, ’tis 
neceflary that I take norice, That there is a greater diffe- 
rence
