STRAIT OF MAGELLAN .-- CLIMATE OF THE SOUTHERN COASTS.
In the end of May 1834 we entered for a second time the eastern mouth of the Strait of Magellan.

The country on both sides of this part of the Strait consists of nearly level plains, like those of Patagonia.

Cape Negro, a little within the second Narrows, may be considered as the point where the land begins to assume the marked features of Tierra del Fuego.
