MARCH commenced with snow and frost, which was soon followed, however, by mild pleasant weather, which continued till the 24th. During all this time, with the exception of the shower on the 1st, there fell scarcely a drop of rain, and the Hygrometer indicated a high degree of dryness. For several days after the 24th there were frequent showers, but the quantity of rain is unusually small. The mean temperature of the month is 5 degrees higher than that of 1818, and spring-water is as high now as it was last year at the beginning of May. The difference between the average of the extremes, and the average of 10 morning and evening, is exactly three-tenths of a degree. The point of deposition, owing to the dry north winds usual at this season, is 3 degrees lower than the mean of the minimum temperature. A very extraordinary fluctuation of the Barometer took place on the 18th, amounting to more than an inch, but scarcely any rain followed. The mean daily fluctuation for the month is one-tenth of a degree less than that of February.
