The hOunderings contortiOns, and mortal throes OF

regularly beat them in dome site intelligence OF every

New YORK, My w to NWbyW

The erroneous statement that the steamer Provi-
der had the gale at :. w. near New Haven, the
18th, which Mr. Espy has used in at least of the
New York papers in support of his theory, he has
since found occasion 10 correct; but do not per-
ceve that his correction has been gwen TO the New
York public.
have brought together below, the chief Of the
foregoing observations, on a small map; in order
that il may now be seen, at glance, whether the
wind in this gale blew in,card from all sides, to-
wards the centre of the storm, according 10 the
favorite hypothesis Of Mr. Espy; or whether, on
the contrary il was actually blowing il, great cir
cult, around its central portion, in the direction
which is contrary TO the hands Of watch which
lies with its face upward, is found to be the
in all gales which have examined; not excepting
even those upon which MIR. Espy is accustomed to
rely, in his attempts TO sustain his sentripetal
theory.

Law OF SToSMs-rHE Two TGEoKIEs.-Yester-
day we received a communication from Mr.. VIM
Z. Redfeld, on the law Of storms II was written
with a view to prove his own theory, and TO dis
prove that Of Professor Espy. Extracts from the
communication we publish below, Together with a
map, giving the course of the wind during the Sc.
we're gale on the 18th ult. Espy has also given his
views on the gale, showing that he is right and
RedGeld wrong If the public listen to BOTH they
will be placed in position hat like the jack
ass between the two hay saeks-the poor animal did
not know Of which to eat, and therefore starved to
death. Not knowing which Ia believe the public will
be as well without the storm kings with them.
But to the two systems. Redfeld's theory is
called centrifugal wbirlwind, and he AYERS that,
in every gale, the wind begins to blow from the
outside, and whrls round and round till it reaches
centre, making precisely the same movement as
letting out the water from large tub, through hole
in the centre of its bottom. Espy's is the centri-
petal theory, and he says that the wind does not
move in large circuit, but blows directly to a
tire. For instance if a violent storm should rage
here, the wind would blow from all quarters, north,
SOUTH east, and west to this city. In their views,
each is sanguine and positive being correct. Red.
fields statements are certainly verified by the
nexed map. Facts are facts.
To the Editor of the Herald.
The editors Of the daily press in this city, having
contributed frequently Of late, to the PRONUNCIATION
OF Mr. Espy's peculiar views in relation to storms,
will doubtless give place to the following facts,
atDg to the severe storm Of Dec. 18th, at Boston
and other places. These facts, if considered geo
graphically and with strict reference to point Of
time, are within the comprehension of every reader
and forD therefore, va id and useful test for the
theory or hypothesis Of an inward centripetal
course Of the wind in storm, which is advocated
by NJ. Espy.
To avoid all complexity, we will confne our
qulries, on this occasion 20 the afternoon OF Sunday
the 18th, at or shortly before sunset The evidence
within our reach on this point is as follows:
