S. Horsley. A Committee of the Society lately appointed to regulate certain matters relating to Meteorology have determined, that the Society's Meteorological Year shall, from this time forward, commence with the month of March; to the end, that every such year may consist of one entire summer and one entire winter, rather than of the pieces of two different winters with the entire summer intervening, as must always be the case when the Meteorological Year, in conformity to the civil reckoning, begins with the month of January.
