Abstract
THE prognostications delivered by M. Charles Sainte-Claire Deville, in his communication of March 2, before the French Institute, were wonderfully fulfilled, at least for Paris, the cold period having had its beginning on the gth, and its end on the 13th, as was predicted. Public attention was all the more attracted because the cold was manifested by a heavy fall of snow, which was the first of the year. Having recently visited M. Ch. Sainte-Claire Deville, the learned physicist was kind enough to explain everything connected with his theories.
