Abstract

Meteorological records recorded at the Observatory, Hobart Town.Includes the leafing, flowering, and fruiting of a few standard plants in the Royal Society's Gardens during the month of February, 1865. Though some of the meteorological phenomena this month were inimical to health and life, yet others were so propitious, that the general result was favorable, and the mortuary record is, therefore, considerably below the 8 yrs. average.
