THE

METEOKOLOGY

OF ENGLAND

DURING

THE

QUARTER

ENDING

SEPTEMBER

30,

1860.

By

JAMES

GLAISHEE, Esq.,

F.E.S.,

8BC. OF THE

BRITISH

KETEOBOLOOICAl.

SOCIETY.

The weather

during

the

quarter

was

very

remarkable for continued

low

temperature,

frequent

rain,

large

'

amount

of

cloud,

little

sun-hine,

and

bad

weather

generally.

The

temperature

within

the

tliree

months

reached

its

average

on

9

days

only,

and

fell short

on

83

days

;

the

mean excess on

the

9

days

was

less

than

1

;

whilst

the

average

dailydeficiency

for

the

83

days

exceeded

4 .

The

mean

temperature

of

July

was

4 -3,

in

August

3 '8,

and

in

September

3 *7,

in

defect,

as

compared

with

their

respective

averages

from

the

pre-eding

19

years.

As

compared

with

the

year

1859,

July

was

10 -o,

August

5 *8,

and

September

3 -3

colder. The

mean

temperature

of

the

three months

ending

September

was 56 -2,

and

once

only,

viz.,

in

1817,

has

the

mean

temperature

of

the

same

months been

so

low-

since

the

year

1771.

The

mean

temperature

of

the

four

months

ending

September

is

still

more

remarkable

;

its value

was

55^*9,

and

there

is

no

other

instance,

as

far

as

trustworthy

records

extend,

of

a

temperature

of

so

low

a

value

for

these

four

important

months.

The

mean

pressure

of the

atmosphere

in

July

was

a

little

above,

in

August

much

below,

and

in

September

below their

respective

averages.

The

pressure

in

August

was

less

than

in

any

August

in

the

preceding

20

years.

The

pressure

was

less in

August

than

in

Tilly

at

extreme

southern

stations

by

0*25

in.,

increasing

gradually

v^

0*40

THE METEOROLOGY

OF

ENGLAND

DUBINa

THE

QUARTER

ENDING

DECEMBER

31,

1860.

By

JAMES

GLAISHER, Esq.,

F.RS.,

8EC.

OF

THE

BKITISU

UKTEOROLOOICAL

SOCIETY.

With

the

exception

of

the

last

ten

days

in

October,

and

the

first

ten

days

in

December,-

the

weather

has

been

cold

throughout

the

quarter.

The

deficiency

of

temperature

was

largo

about

the 12tli

of

October,

was

about

3

below

tlio

daily

average

in

Xovember,

and

was

very

largo

from tho

18th

to

the

29th of

December,

the

cold

having

been

singularly

severe

between

these

days,

exhibiting

a

great

contrast

to

tho

weather

at

the

beginning

of

the month. On De-ember

5th

and

6th

the

excess

of

temperature

above tho

average

was

9 ;

from

the

18th

to

the

23rd it

was

each

day

from

7

to

10^

below;

as

much

as

15**

on

tho

24th;

1G

on

the

25th;

and

14

on

the 29th.

On

tho

7th

day

the

temperature

in

the

neighbourhood

was as

high as

54 ,

and

on

the

25th and 29th

was as

low

as

7

and

8^\

These

latter

temperatures

are

very

remarkable for

December. I]i

the

year 1846

the

mean

temperature

of December

was

32^*9,

beinp;

3^*4

lower

than

in

the month

just

passed.

In

the

year

1852

it

was

47

--6,

or

11^'

o

warmer

than in 1860.

This

was

the

hottest December

in

tho last

20

years.

The

mean

temperature

of

October

was

1

above,

of

November

was

2}^

below,

and

of

December

was

4^

below their

averages

as

found

from the

observations

of'the

preceding

19

years.

The

pressure

of the

atmosphere

was

slightly

above

its

average

in

October,

and below

in

November and

December,

being

kmaller

in

December

than in

any

December

for

20

years.

The fall

of

rain

was

slightly

deficient

in

the

quarter,

and

amounted

to

32

in.

in

the

year.

This

was

exceeded in

the

years

1821,

1824,

and

1852;

but

is

greater

than

in all other

years

since the

year

1815.

The

mean

temperature

of

tho air

at

Greenwich

for

the

thrco

months

ending

November,

constituting

the

three autumn

months,

was

48^*3,

being

1^*1 below

the

average

of

the

preceding

89

years.

STATE

OF

THE PUBLIC

HEALTH.

1st

Quarter.

The

excess

of

births

over

the

deaths in the

quarter

was 77,639

;

so

the

natural

increase

of the

population

of

England

and

Wales

was

at

the

rate of

844

daily

;

and

if

the

rest

of

the

popu-ation

increased

equally

fast,

the

natural

increase of the United

Kingdom

must

have

been

at

the

rate

of

1266

daily.

The

increase

exceeds

any

on

record.

86,423

deaths

were

registered

in the three

months

ending

in

September,

or

less

by

17,916

than

the

deaths

(104,339)

registered

in

the

corresponding

quarter

of last

year.

To

every

six deaths

in the last

there

were

only

five

in

the

present

summer.

The

rate

of

mortality

was

17

;

whereas the

average

of

the

season

is

20

per

1000.

The

reduction of the

mortality

is

ob-ervable

in the

town

and

in the

country

districts

;

but it is

by

far

the

greatest

in the

town

districts.

The

average

number

of deaths

in

the

town

districts

during

the

summers

of

1850-9

was

52,861

;

whereas

the deaths

in

the

last

summer were

45,495

:

in the

coimtiy

districts

during

the

same

periods

the deaths

were

43,697

and

40,928.

The

rate

of

mortality

in

the

town

districts fell

from

23*75

to 18*42

per

1000

;

in the

country

and small

town

districts

from

17*59

to

15*87,

or

5*33

degrees

in

the

town

and

1*72

in

the

country

districts.

2nd

Quarter.

The

births exceeded the

deaths

in

the

quarter

by

59,691,

and

that

was

the

natui-al increase

of the

population.

In

the

year

the

natural

increase of

England

and

Wales

was

260,930

souls

713

daily.

If Scotland and Ireland increased

at

the

same

rate, tho

natural increase

of

the

population

of the United

Kingdom

must

have

been

at

the

rate

of

1069

daily.

102,557

deaths

were

registered

in

the

last

quarter

of the

year

1860,

and

the

annual

rate

of

mortality

during

the

season was

2*024.

The

mortality was

0*158

below

the

average.

Upon

making

up

the

account

for

the

year,

the

deathjs

are

found

to

be

422,500

;

and

the

annual

rate

of

mortality

2*113

;

or

a

little

more

than

21 in

1000. The

average

of the

preceding

ten

years

is

22

:

so

one

life in

every

1000

living

was

saved.

Yet the

mortality

of

England

and

Wales is

still

greatly

in

excess

of

the

rate

expe-ienced

in

the

least

unhealthy

districts.

The

deaths,

instead

of

102,557

would

at

that

rate

have

been

79,283

;

so

during

the

92

days

23,274

persons

died

unnatural

deaths

in

the least

unhealthy

country

in

Europe.

The

densest

districts

are

still

the

unhealthiest.

In

tho

town

districts

the

mortality

was

at

the

rate

of

23

in

1000

;

in

the

country

districts

18

in

1000.

It

is

gratifying

to

find that the

mor-ality

of

the

town

districts

has

declined

from

25

to

23,

and

of

the

countrjr

districts

from

19

to

18.

Report

to

the

General

Meeting.

The Council

having

determined

to

select

a literary

and

scientific Editor

of

the

Society's

Journal,

have

appointed

Mr.

Philip

H.

Frere

to

that

office,

and,

from the

high

testimonials

exhibited

by

that

gentleman,

feel

confidence in

hoping

that

he

will

succeed

in

conducting

the

Society's

publications

with

effi-iency

and

talent.

The

arrangements

for

the

Canterbury Meeting,

to

be

held

during

the

week

commencing

the 9th of

July,

are

proceeding-

satisfactorily.

The

Implement

Yard

will

contain

nearly

a

mile

and

a

quarter

of

Shedding,

in

addition

to

a

very

large

entry

of

Machinery

in motion

;

and the

entry

of

Stock,

which

will

close

on

the 1st of

June,

is

already

large.

The

Council,

in

the

spirit

which

has

guided

them

on

former

occasions,

and

considering

the

cordial

reception

which

awaits

them

in

the

county

of

Kent,

have

thought

they

could

not

do

otherwise

than defer

to

the

strongly-expressed

wishes

of

the

locality,

that this

special

opportunity

should

not

be

lost for

directing

attention

to

the

agriculture

peculiar

to

the

district,

and

have been

induced

to

accept

the

offer

of

a

considerable

sum,

to

be

distributed

in

prizes

for

Ploughing on

the

Kentish

or

tumrise

system,

as

also for

Hops, Wool,

and

certain

Breeds of

Live

Stock.

The

Council

have

decided,

subject

to

the

usual

conditions,

to

hold the

Society's

Country Meeting

next

year

at

Leeds,

for

the

district

comprising

the three

Ridings

of

Yorkshire. Great

anxiety

was

evinced

by

many

localities

in the

county,

to

be

selected

as

the

place

for

the

Country Meeting

;

but

the

advantages

of

Leeds

and

its

neighbourhood,

joined

to

the

eligibility

of the

sites

offered

for

Showyard

and

Trial-fields,

have

induced

a

decision in

its

favour,

which

it is

confidently

hoped

will

result

in

a

most

successful

meeting.

In

conclusion,

the

Council

trust

that

the

Society

will

prove

itself

to

be

in

a

position

to

pursue

its

career

with renewed

energy^

and that

its

future

may

be

marked

by

increased

endeavours

to

advance

the

important

objects

for

which

it

was

specially

constituted.

By

Order

of

the

Council,

H.

Hall

Dare,

Secretary
