differences between the two periods occur with east, south- 
east, and south winds. Comparing the mean temperature 
under south-w 
est winds with 
that under 
south and south 
east winds we 
have following 
differences : 
— 
1858 
+0-35° 
1864 . 
-0-75° 
1859 . 
+0-75

-3-70 
1862 .

1868 .

-0-30 
Here we have again a maximum in I860 and a minimum 
in 18G7. 
As the temperature diminished under two winds only, 
the north-east and south-west, we may compare the means 
of the temperatures under these winds with those of the 
wind under which the greatest increase of temperature took 
place, the south-east, thus : — 
1858 
-M5° 
1864 .... 
.. -2-75° 
1859 
-0-75 
1865 .... 
.. -4-30 
1860 
+0-05 
1866 .... 
.. -3-45 
1861 
- 0-50 
1867 .... 
-6-75 
1862 
1863 
-0-85 
-1-90 
1868 .... 
.. -2-15 
Again we 
have a maximum 
in 1860 and 
a minimum in 
1867, and it 
is therefore evident that the 
distribution of 
temperature 
under different winds, like that of barometric 
pressure, is very sensibly influenced by the changes which 
take place in solar activity.
