No. 192, 



JULY 29th, 1854: MORMNO. 



Lat. at 3fi., 2(1 41' K. : Lon. 114' 54' E. 



Sun rose at 5/ 36/n. 

 Stronger and Ditfuse Light af-i, 3, and 4 o'clock. 



Clouds since last date until this morning;, which was tolerably clear. I was up at 1 o'clock, and thought I could 

 distinctly recognize the Zodiacal Light at that very early hour ; but did not attempt to get boundaries, on account of 

 clouds flitting by. At 2'', 3' 1 , and 4 1 ', succeeded as per chart. The Zodiacal Light had the same unusual appearance, 

 this morning, that was noticed at the last date ; looking as if muddy water had been stirred into it. The stars in 

 its line were either blotted out, or obscured, to an uncommon degree. This morning, as at the last, the atmosphere 

 had a blight degree of haziness.
