In the violent storms during which the wind blows from the same quarter for two or three days, the levelof the water is raised more than three feet above its usual height, and ually falls as the pressure of the winds eclines. This elevation cannot be proved on the unsheltered sides, because of the height of the enormous waves which roll on the shore, or dash against the rocks; butitis easy to ob- serve it in the harbors and deep bays, where the water remains scarcely agitated.
