On a careful inspection of this interesting register, it will appear
sufficiently obvious, that the climate of Touraine, is of a mild and
equable character, and when it is recollected that the winter of 1840,
was almost every where marked by extraordinary vicissitudes of
temperature, and unusual severity, it would hardly appear a fair
criterion of the _natural salubrity_ of the climate of this country.
A really correct knowledge of the distinguishing characteristics of any
climate can of course, only be obtained by taking the average of
correctly observed and registered, meteorological phenomena of a series
of years; and too much credit cannot be awarded to persons who bestow a
portion of their time and attention in the acquirement of such important
data; which must, ultimately tend to the advancement of science, and
public utility.

The circle is divided by the French into 400 degrees; by the English
into 360. Hence 10 French circular degrees equal 9 English.
APPENDIX.
A FEW USEFUL HINTS FOR TRAVELLERS.
Passports.--The office for passports in London is at Nē 6 Poland
street, Oxford street, where an under-secretary of the embassy attends
daily (generally from one till three.) Applications personal or written
stating the name, profession and nation, is made one day and the
passport is granted (gratis) the following one, on personal applications
only.
To expedite the procuring of a passport, in a case of emergency,
applications may be made to the French Consul, Nē 3, Copthal
Buildings, where a fee of ten shillings is expected.
Members of the same family may have their names inserted in the same
passport, but persons travelling in company should provide themselves
with separate passports. Couriers and male servants should each have a
passport.
A traveller intending to visit any other territory should have the
passports _vise_ (backed) by the Ambassador or Consul of each country
traversed.
Consuls residing at the outports also give passports, so likewise do
British Consuls resident at foreign seaports.
The British Ambassador's residence, in Paris, is Nē 39, rue du
faubourg saint Honore.
If the traveller should omit to obtain a passport till he reach Dover,
or Brighton, or Southampton, he may procure one from the French Consul
at any one of these places, on the first application, it will cost him
ten shillings.
CASH.--The traveller will find English Bank-Notes, particularly of large
amount the most profitable money he can take to France. The course of
exchange has for several years been about six per cent in favor of
England. Should he however object to carry a large sum with him, he may
take _Circular_ or _transferable Exchange notes_. The object of these
notes is to supply _travellers_ on the continent with money where they
may require it, without there being any necessity for determining the
route before hand; and to supply _other individuals_, who may have
remittances to make abroad, with bills upon any particular place that
they may desire. For this purpose a correspondence is established with
all the principal places in Europe.
Notes on this plan may be obtained of Messrs. Coutts and Cē., Strand;
Foreign Banking Company, (la banque Anglo-Etrangere), 82, Lombard
Street, and of Messrs. Glynn and Cē., Lombard Street.
COIN.--The modern gold coins of France are pieces of 40 fr. and 20 fr.
The silver coins are 5 fr., 2 fr., 1 fr., 1/2 fr., 1/4 fr.. The coins of
billon (a mixed metal) and copper are pieces of one decime, or 2 sous,
pieces of 6 liards, or 1-1/2 sou, of 5 centimes, or one sou, and of one
centime. There are also liards and double liards, which are 1/4 and 1/2
of a sou.
In the monetary system of France, the coins, if accurately minted, may
serve also as weights. Thus 5 francs in copper, 50 in billon, 200 in
standard silver, or 3,100 in standard gold, should weigh one kilogramme.
Hence the piece of one fr. weighs 5 grammes, and any other piece in the
above proportion.
The gold coins of 20 fr. and 40 fr., struck under the government of
Bonaparte, were called napoleons and double-napoleons, and such is the
force of habit, that these, as well as pieces of the same value struck
since 1814, continue to be so called.
They are also designated pieces de vingt francs and pieces de quarante
francs. The silver coins of 5 francs each are frequently called pieces
de cent sous; a piece of 2 francs is called piece de quarante sous, and
so on.
The only notes issued by the Bank of France are of 500 fr. and 1,000 fr.
These are changeable into silver at the Bank, without discount, except
the charge of 3 sous for the bag which contains the change; or, at a
premium, into silver or gold, at the different money changers.
The French money, being divided into decimal parts, in reckoning,
instead of 25 sous it is said 1 fr. 25 centimes, instead of 30 sous, 1
fr 50 cent., and so on. When the course of exchange is at par between
France and England, 25 fr. are considered equal to the pound sterling.
The gold as well as silver coins of France contain 1--10th. alloy.
Since the English sovereign contains of pure gold 7.318444035 grammes,
and the gold coin of 20 fr. contains of pure gold 5.806449 grammes,
therefore the _intrinsic_ value of the sovereign, in French money, is
25.2079 fr., or 25 fr. 20 c. Hence the respective intrinsic value of the
following coins will be:
Guinea 26 fr. 47 c.
Crown 5 fr. 80 c.
Shilling 1 fr. 16 c.
Napoleon 15 s. 10-1/4 d. .9
Franc 9 d. 05
The rate of exchange, at Paris and the principal towns of France, is
commonly 25 fr. 50 c. for L. 1 sterling: but it varies, and especially
in the smaller towns, from 25 fr. to 25 fr. 75 c. If we assume it to be
25 fr. to L. 1 sterling, we have an easy proportion, by which we may
find the value of the money of either country in the money of the other.
Thus since 25 fr. are equal to 20 shillings, 5 francs are equal to 4
shillings, and therefore, any number of francs are equal to 4-5ths of
the same number of shillings; and any number of shillings are equal to
5-4ths of the same number of francs. Thus 100 fr. will equal 80
shillings, or L. 4; and L. 5, or 100 shillings, will equal 125 fr.
Hence.
Sovereign 25 fr.
Crown 6 fr. 25 c.
Shilling 1 fr. 25 c.
Penny 10 c. nearly.
Napoleon 16 s. 0 d.
Franc 9 d. 3/4 nearly
Sou 1/2 nearly.
or 1/4 9.
This rule will be found very useful for all small sums and the common
purposes of life.
TRAVELLING.
LONDON TO CALAIS.--Persons who leave London by the evening coaches
abridge their journey by not sleeping at Dover, and are equally in time
for the packet-boats, the coaches always arriving before the packets
sail, early the next morning either to Calais or Boulogne, whence safety
coaches set out twice a day for Paris; by which, according to the
quickness of the passage, the traveller pressed for time may go either
that same evening or early the next morning, and will reach the French
metropolis the day after.
