The barometer has risen steadily, but fallon slowly in the far north. Northerly and westerly winds have prevailed. The present, conditions arc very unstable, and especially in the north, for low pressure exfsls everywhere to tho westward, and although thoro aro but few positive indications of a change in the immediate future, yet such is probable shortly. Freshening northerly winds aro expected in the far north, and westerly prevailing elsewhere." HIGH WATER. 9— a.m. o.m.
