430 METEOROLOGICAL TABLE. [APP. IV, 
No. IV. 
METEOROLOGICAL TABLE, including 
the daily Latitude and Longitude of the Ship. 
Remarks on the Meteorological Tarle, §c. 
This Register is by no means so complete as I could 
have wished. The variety of occupations that I was en¬ 
gaged in, prevented me from paying that attention to it 
that it might otherwise have met with. 
The Latitudes and Longitudes marked with an aste¬ 
risk, were deduced from celestial observations, and are con¬ 
sequently accurate. 
The direction of the Winds is reckoned from the true 
meridian, the correction for variation being applied to the 
direction by the compass. 
For the sake of brevity, in the column of Winds, I have 
distinguished the progressive veering of the wind between 
two points, and the progressive change between two deno¬ 
minations of strength or “ Force,” by the intervention of 
the particle to. And the same application of the word to, 
lias been used to connect the winds of two contiguous 
days.
