Abstract
THE Annals of this high class Meteorological Observatory for 1890 are of more than usual interest, since we have here presented not only the observations of the year, which are made with remarkable fulness and exactness, but also a well presented and discussed résumé by Mr. Clayton for the lustrum ending with 1890, together with an account of the hourly and other observations made at the Signal Service Station at Boston. The Observatory is situated about ten miles south of Boston, on the summit of a peaked hill 640 feet above the sea, and as the ground falls down from the buildings in every direction for several hundred feet, the Observatory occupies a unique position among Observatories in the investigation of some of the more important phenomena of meteorology.
