628 OBSERVATIONS ON THE ZODIACAL LIGHT, 



No. 314. 



APRIL 4tb, 1855: EVENING. 



Lat. at 8A., 1 37' N. : Lon. 37 3?' W. 



Sun set at 6A. 3^m. 

 Stronger and Diffuse Light at 7k. 12m. 



Clouds since last date (29th ult.) until this evening. Sky now sufficiently clear, at 7" 12 m , to allow me to get the 

 southern boundaries of the Zodiacal Light, hoth of the Stronger and Diffuse. The northern boundaries were covered 

 by clouds. The eastern horizon was covered by clouds ; but the moon, now risen, soon broke through them, and 

 put a stop to observations for the evening.
