...which some very fine specimens have been received in Cambridge. The main station at Arequipa controls many meteorological posts in the neighboring country. The most important of these is situated on the summit of the volcano El Misti, 19200 feet above the level of the sea. At this high post there has recently been set up an automatic meteorograph which runs without care for months at a time. This records the direction and velocity of the wind, and registers continuously the barometric pressure, the temperature, and the humidity of the atmosphere...

The float was taken in on Friday's high tide because it had been damaged by a schooner so as to be practically useless.
