gQg OBSERVATIONS ON THE ZODIACAL LIGHT. 



No. 153. 

 MAY 16th, 1854 : EVENINO. 



Lat. at 8/1. 45m. 41 50' N.: Lon. J41 r ' 8' E. 



Sun set 7/. 8m. 

 ( 8/1. 45m. ) 



Stronger Light? 9 25 .' Diffuse 8/1. 45m. and 9/i. Sow. 

 ( 10 ) 



There is, now, a, constant haziness in the sky, much like that of our Indian summer ; and observations are, conse- 

 quently, not as satisfactory as formerly. The Zodiacal Light itself is fully distinct ; but there is some difficulty in 

 getting boundaries accurately. I do the best I can. At 10 o'clock, I thought the Stronger Light showed itself up 

 to llegulus ; but I do not give this as a certainty. The Diffuse Light is still more ill defined than the; other ; but 

 I put it down as it appears to me to be.
