Not illustrated. 1861 Excerpt: ...for night temperature both at Greenwich and Utrecht; they followed on full moon and last quarter. The least amount of cold was at first quarter. The difference between the minimum temperatures at first quarter and shortly after last quarter, on a mean of twelve observations taken at both stations, was nearly 7. The difference in the means of the mean temperature of the day for forty-three years for the two periods of fourteen days, at the former place had been previously found to be 11. Mr. Harrison expressed increased conviction that effects so contrary to expectation must be due to the presence or absence of cloud, or to its height above the earth, --to whatever cause this phenomenon may ultimately be assigned. On the Principles of Meteorology. By Professor Hennessy, F.R.S. The author contended that the principal object of meteorology was the prediction of the weather within certain probable limits. The great complication of atmospherical phenomena, and the influence of remote causes of disturbance, would undoubtedly render this extremely difficult. Although the atmosphere is itself one of the best examples of an unorganized body to which we could refer, yet its complicated and fluctuating phenomena suggest to us the mode in which such phenomena should be investigated. Any success could be expected only by treating the atmosphere very nearly as an organized body, and studying its abnormal conditions with the same continuity and generality of observation as is usually employed in physiology. Observations made at stated hours have been found by themselves rarely capable of affording means to foretell the future conditions of the weather for even short periods of time.
