Excerpt from The American Journal of Science and Arts, Vol. 8: Nos. 43-48; July to December, 1874 These numbers indicate that the stron sr the wind on the west side of the storm, the less is the vfiocity of the storm's pro ress. The velocity of the wind in the west quadrant gen eral y exceeds the velocity in the east quadrant by 22 per cent. When the velocity in the east quadrant is equal to that in the west quadrant, the velocity of the storm's progress is seven miles per hour greater than the mean; but when the velocit of the wind in the west quadrant exceeds that in the east qua rant by 44 per cent, the velocity of the storm's progress is seven miles per hour less than the mean.

Excerpt from The American Journal of Science and Arts, Vol. 105: January to June, 1873 The two largest specimens, dredged in 28 fathoms, east of Grand Menan, by the writer, measured 5 inches across the disk and tentacles, but their bodies were mutilated. Entire ones of much smaller size were dredged by Dr. Packard and Ir. Cooke in 110 and 150 fathoms, soft mud, near St. George's Bank. The largest of these was 8 inches long, and like other species of the genus, inhabited a thick, tough, felt-like, muddy tube.

Excerpt from The American Journal of Science and Arts, Vol. 113: January to June, 1877 Northwest wind at Eastport, Fort Garry, Fort Sully, Mt. Washington, Norfolk, Oswego and Pembina. At three of these stations, viz: Cleveland, Duluth and Os wego, the northerly wind was probably the result of the cooler air of the Lakes moving toward the warmer land. Three of the stations, viz: Fort Sully, Fort Garry and Pembina, were situated on the north side of the area which was most heated; and two other stations, viz: Eastport and Mt. Washington were on the extreme eastern border of the heated area. At Mobile the velocity of the wind was only one mile per hour; at Norfolk and Yankton it was four miles; and at Santa Fe five miles per hour.

Excerpt from The American Journal of Science and Arts, Vol. 40: April, 1841 The vegetable productions of North America, in common with those of most other parts of the world, have generally been first described by European botanists, either from the collections of travellers, or from specimens communicated by residents of the country, who, induced by an enlightened curiosity, the love of flowers, or in some instances, by no inconsiderable scientific acquirements, have thus sought to contribute, according to their opportunities, to the promotion of botanical knowledge. From the great increase in the number of known plants, it very frequently happens that the brief descriptions, and even the figures, of older authors are found quite insufficient for the satisfactory determination of the particular species they had in view; and hence it becomes necessary to refer to the herbaria where the original specimens are preserved. In this respect, the collections of the early authors possess an importance far exceeding their intrinsic value, since they are seldom large, and the specimens often imperfect. With the introduction of the Linnaean nomenclature, a rule absolutely essential to the perpetuation of its advantages was also established, viz. that the name under which a genus or species is first published shall be retained, except in certain cases of obvious and paramount necessity.
