Whsrswinds.

Whriwids sometimes arise from winds
blowing among lofty and precipitous noun z
tains, the form Of which influences their
direction, and occasions gusts to descend
in spiral or wbirling motion. They are
frequently, however, caused by two winds
meeting each other at an angle, and then
turning upon centre. When two winds
thus encounter. one another, any cloud
which happens to be between them u.s. Of
course, condensed, and turned rapidly
ronnd; and all substances sufficiently light,
are carried up into to The air by the whirl-
ing motion which ensnes. a. The action Of
whirlwind at sea occasions that curious
phenomenon called ,cater-spom, which is
thus described by those who have, witt
messed it:-From q dense cloud cone de-
rscends,, in the, form Of o trumpet, with the
small end dcwnwar1s: at the same, time,
the surface Of thessea is agltated and whirl-
ed round, the waters are Converted into
vapor, and ascend with a,spiral motion,
till they unite with the cone proceeding
from the cloud: frequently, however, they
dispense before the junction is effect ed.--e
Both columns diminish towards their point
of contact, where they are not above
three or four feet in diameter. In the
middle Of the cone forming the water
spout, there is white transparent tube,
which becomes less distinct on APPROACH
ing ii; and it is then discovered to be o
vacant space, in which none, ofthe small
particles of water ascend, and in this, az
well as around the outer edges Of the wa
ter-spout, large drops Of rain precipitate
themselves. In calm weather, water
spouts generally preserve the perpendic-
ular in their motion; but when acted on
by winds, they move on obliquely. Some
times they dispense suddenly; at others,
they pass rapidly along the surface of the
sea, and continue quarter Of an hour or
moro before they disappear. A, riotion
has been entertained that they are very
dangerous to shipping, owing to the de-;
scent, at the instant of their breaking, Of a
large body of water sufficient to sink q
ship; but this does not appear to be the
case, for the water decends only in the
form ofheavy rain. II is true, that small
vessels incur risk of being ovcrset il
they carry much sail; because sudden
gusts of wind, from all points Of the com,
pass, are very common in vicinity Of wa
ter-spouts. fs.lfv.
