Abstract
THE interest excited in Europe, and particularly in England and France, by the weather predictions cabled by the New York Herald to its London Office during the past year (commencing February 14, 1877) proves that these warning messages are regarded as important to the interests of commerce, navigation, and agriculture. The generally expressed opinion as to their accuracy is a favourable one, and is justified, I believe, by the fulfilment of a very large percentage. Such a result of the first year's work affords me unqualified satisfaction. It represents all the success I aimed to attain, and much more than I hoped to win.
