Sun set 5h. 33t m. 

 Stronger and Diffuse Light 7A. and 7A. 43/n. 



A most changeable sky ; at one time large portions of it are clear, and then, immediately after, it is covered all 

 over with clouds. Watched for clear intervals, and got two observations as in the chart ; the western speck of the sky, 

 at these times, was ivmarkahly clear. At 7" 50'" the Stronger Light was very bright, indeed, at the spot marked a a a 

 in the chart; and below this, it was brighter than any part of the Milky Way then above the horizon. The sky was 

 clouded over immediately alter 7' 1 , and I could get no further observations during the night.
