In 2 vols., post Bvo.,

the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1853.62
the average number (corrected) was 1,882.
At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean
height of the barometer in the week was 29.521
inches. The reading was 29.99 inches on the morn-
ing of Sunday ; it fell to 28.80 inches on Friday. The
mean temperature of the air in the week was 45.7
deg., which is 1.3 deg. below the average of the
tame week in 43 years (as determined by Mr.
Giaisher). The mean temperature was below the
average on five days. The lowest night tempera-
ture was 34 7 deg. on Tuesday. The highest day
temperature was 56.2 deg. on Wednesday. The
range of temperature in the week was therefore
21.5 deg. The mean daily range was 14.8 deg. The
difference between the mean dew point temperature
and air temperature was 3.5 deg. The mean degree
of humidity of the air was 88, complete saturation
being represented by 100. The air was very moist
nearly all the week, and on three days the humidity
was not much short of saturation. The wind was
in the south-west on the•last four days. Rain fell
frequently on Friday; and at half-past 3 o'clock
on the afternoon of that day there was a heavy
squall of wind, which recorded a pressure of 2911 b.
on the square foot, which is greater than any other
recorded within the last 20 years. The temperature
fell 10 deg. at that time; and the wind suddenly
changed from south by West to west by north. The
amount of rain in the week was 0.47 in., of which
0.32 in. fell on Friday. The mean of the highest
temperatures of the water of the Thames was 5443
deg. ; that of the loWest xas 52.6 deg.

A NOVEL.
"This is a novel of the Tom Brown' school. The Etonian
is a worthy companion of the Rugby boy, whom he resem-
bles in many respects. There is throughout the work no base
or vulgar thought ; it is as pure and almost as natural as the
' Vicar of Wakefield.' The delineation of the other charac-
ters shows the same extraordinary power and consistency of
keeping, and the incidents of the tale are well managed and
full of interest."—Daily News.
