PRINTED BY W. CLOWES AND SONS, STANFORD STREET. FOOTNOTES:
[1] The first half of the storm, _in the case before alluded to_, is
that N.E. of the line N.W.--S.E., fig. 1, comprising the easterly and
southerly winds; and the latter half, that S.W. of the same line,
comprising the northerly and westerly winds.
[2] This table is also applicable to the hurricanes in the neighbourhood
of Mauritius in the southern hemisphere, where all the phaenomena are
reversed; the motion of the hurricanes being towards the S.W., and the
rotation in the direction of the hands of a watch, the same barometric
and anemonal phaenomena are experienced as in a hurricane in the northern
hemisphere moving towards the N.E.
[3] By the officer of the watch being charged with this duty, and its
being executed under his immediate superintendence, it is apprehended
that a register may be kept with great regularity.
[4] These papers may be obtained from Messrs. W. H. Allen and Co.,
Booksellers to the Honourable East India Company, No. 7, Leadenhall
Street, London.
