•52. 55°. A very striking and remarkable difference still obtains. The barometer in the warmer region of the tropics, where the air is lighter, presents the higher barometer by absolutely half-an-inch, being quite the reverse of what it should be by our views of it. These speculative inquiries are not so useless or barren as might be supposed, for they lie at the root of all our opinions in respect to the general action of the barometer. They involve questions of importance, and from the total ...want of accordance between the barometer and thermometer, it would seem to be most unnecessary to make any correction for temperature in the barometric observations. The absolute reading is the true one, and more accordant to nature than the applied corrections. If we .assume the atmosphere to be of one uniform height in every region of the globe, how are we to reconcile it with the different weights of the same bulk of air ? Two columns of air having the same height, and being of the same absolute weight at the base, must have the same amount of heat in the columns, although the heat may be very differently distributed in the columns.
