Brussels does not exhibit this rise, as neither the trough of A 1 nor the apex of B 1 has arrived at this station. (8.) Wave A 1.--The trough of this wave is now passing Longstone, Bardsey, and South Bishop; the bulge at or near Birmingham is lessened, and it begins to appear eastward of Haisboro (see curves b b, figs. 3 and 2, Plate XLIV.). We have thus satisfactorily traced the progression of this bulge from the north-west, past South Bishop, and also in the neighbourhood of Haisboro; there can be no question that its longitudinal direction was considerable, but we have not at present sufficient data for determining it. (9.) Wave B 1.--The anterior trough of this wave now enters on the area and passes Geneva and Scilly; the wave also enters, producing a rise of the barometer, at both stations. (10.) Wave A 2 (or shoulder).--This wave has now entered on the area 72 miles (from Dublin to Bardsey); the extremity of the curve b, fig. 3, Plate XLIV., tinted red, shows the barometric rise due to this wave. (11.) Nov. 9.3--Model exhibits the general slope of A 1 (or normal) in the same direction as before; the trough between Dublin and Birmingham is brought fully into view. (12.) Nov. 9.5.--Dublin'attains the altitude of South Bishop, and the two curves continue nearly identical for the next nine hours; Dublin rising from the anterior slope of A 2, combined with that of B 1 and South Bishop, principally from the latter wave (see coloured diagrams, fig. 2, Plate XLIIL). (13.) Nov. 9.9--Wave A 1, fig. 3, curve c, Plate XLIV. As wave B 1 advances, the anterior slope will occasion a rise, while the barometer is falling from the passage of the posterior slope of the...
