idian. We find, therefore, that there exists apparently an oscillatory movementof the seasonal rains of Australia about a centre in the vicinity of Forbes,in New South Wales. It is perhaps a natural coincidence that this apparentcentre of oscillation is approximately the centre of gravity of Australiaspopulation, and is not far from the Federal capital site ; another interestingpoint is that the amplitude of oscillation exactly equals 72 degrees of arc orone-fifth of a circle. 7.
