During tho rapid cooling Of the northern hemis-
phere, through November, December, and January,
when the daily loss of heat il greater than the gain
and the rapid heating of the southern hemisphere,
in which the daily gain exceeds the loss there is
strong determination of the lower portion of the at
mospherc to flow from the north towards the south
to displace the specifically lighter air there, and Of
the upper portion to flow over from the south to-
wards the north. Thus slow circulation between
| the two hemispheres must take place. Hence the
greater prevalence Of northerly winds, in lati-
tude, during the months named, than during the
rest of the year. During the months of May, June,
! and July, the same causes, in reversed order,
ought to produce determination of the under por-
tons Of the atmosphere towards the north, and
hence the greater prevalence Of southerly winds du-
ring these months, than during any similar portion
| Of the year. E4


Now, Immediately after the minimum tempera-
ture has been attained in the northern, and the max
imum in the southern hemisphere, the southwark
determination or the great southern oscillation will


be checked, and soon begin to move in contrary
direction, by the reversal of the thermal action,


there being now slight gain Of temperature in the
NORTH and loss in the south But before this great


oscillation can take place in contrary direction,


there must be a temporary calm, analogous to
| slack water between the flow and ebb of the tide
| Accordingly, short season Of calm, mild, and
! pleasant weather is enjoyed in January in general


at or after its middle; and the month Of August Is


for it's uniformly calm and consequently
]. sultry weather. But though there be but two


great annual oscillations, they may be, and indeed


are, subject TO interruptions more or less regular,


producing the alterations in the weather which are


found to take place at the intervals Of one two and
four weeks The remarkably fine weather enjoyed
I almost every year about the Goth Of February, is


but an interrupted stage Of the great annual wave
from the south towards the NORTH in which direc-
4 ton the wave is then moving.


From the preceding reasoning, ii appears evident
that the "lndan summer" is but one Of those sea-
sons OF comparative quiescence in the atmosphere


more perect and oflonger duration than the rest bu,


bearing in it's general features close analogy to
