It is not intended to enter into any further discussion of these Bermuda resultsuntil those obtained at other islands have been considered. Taking the other islands in the order visited, they are as follows :— St. Vincent, Cape Verde Islands.—Here the declination on the west side of theisland was 3° in defect of the normal, but the inclination and force were but little affected. St. Pauls Rocks.—There was little or no disturbance. Tristan da Cunha.—The westerly declination on the west side of some high cliffswas increased if. Kerguelen Island.—At Christmas Harbour, Accessible Bay, and Betsy Cove thedeclination was 1° above the normal, there being high land to the westward of all threestations, and at two positions where the inclination and intensity were observed theywere in excess of the normal, all three elements showing marked effects of a forcerepelling the north-seeking end of the needl
