* I have pointed out elsewhere (Transactions of Sections, Report of Brit. Assoc. 1845, p. 15), that the means of the monthly maxima and minima are probably always less than the mean pressure in certain latitudes (including 50° and 60° north), but that in other latitudes the reverse is the case. The explanation of this fact will probably be found in the prevalence and excessive pressures of particular winds.
