Scientific paper

THE accounts of March storms in England which reach us lead me to think that it would be interesting to note the following. On March 13, barometers in Western Australia had fallen suddenly 0.20 inch; the cyclone passed rapidly eastward along the south coast of Australia. On the 15th we had a heavy gale of wind at Sydney; the anemometer showed 55 miles an hour. Lake George was so disturbed that the observer was wind-bound in the small house which holds the recording maclnine for several days, and the tidal regiter at Sydney shosvs considerable disturbance like earthquake-waves during the 15th, 16th, and 17th. On the 15th the level of the Sydney transit instrument was found to have changed suddenly since the 14th, 0'.7, the western pier having fallen. A tidal wave reached New Guinea and New Britain on the 13th; at the latter place it is supposed to have risen 40 feet.
