 a and 5 belonj; to two different stars, and 

 are wrongly conihined. The right as 

 cension is that of Lam. 1181, the declina- 

 tion proliahly that of a star that was ob- 

 served also by Wash. Eqnatorial, A. N., 

 No. >573. In Ham. Coll. Zones were ob- 

 served : 



111- 32" 38»: —5° 14' 21" (Lam. 1181) 

 33 1 20 3 (Wash.Equ.) 



33 18 19 48 



There seems to be no good authority for 

 calling this star Far. It is 6.7 magui- 

 tnde. 

 For g Virginis read 49 Yirg. (s. Argelau- 

 der in Bonn Obs., VI], )). 41M). 

 25° read 23° (as it is in Wash. Obs., 



1849). 

 2«.749 read 2'. 777 in precession. 

 42' read 38' (s. Wash. Obs., 1848). The 



star is R. u070. 

 23' read 21'. 



48' read 47' (s. Wash. Obs., 1871, App. 

 II, p. 78). The slar is 29 li Herculis. 

 3'.716 read 2".71ii in precession. 

 58' .')'J".9 read 5'.!' 31". 5. The correction 

 of 1 rev. =31". 6 is demanded by 5 

 observations in the Wash. Zones. 

 Is over 5' too far south. The star is O. 

 Arg. 16153. 

 Prob. 30= too great, and the star is identical 

 with No. 7021. 

 For 2".571 read :i«.571 in precession. 



46«.83 read M'.^'S. The right ascen- 

 sion 4tj».83 probably was O. Arg. 

 170>-'8, tlie declination of which was 

 not oliserved at the Mnral Circle. 

 Belongs to the preceding slar, and is here 

 to be canceled. The right ascension of 

 O. Arg. 17094 was not observed. 

 For 6". 8 read 16". 8 ( — error of Cat.; Wash. 

 Obs. correct). 

 26' read 27' (s Wash. Obs., 1845, p. 

 267; by oversight the star is omitted 

 in the special catalogneon p. 273). 

 38' read 37' (—right in' Wash Obs.). 

 There is no star to be seen in ihis place. 

 The right ascension agrees with 0. -Arg. 

 19016, the declination (to about 20") 

 with O.-Arg. 19^)00-2. 

 For 8' read 10'. 

 6' read 9'. 



8«.36 read 9'.36 (LL., O.-Arg., Lam. 

 agree).

 aaud 5 are wrongly combined; the right 

 ascension is that of R. 82rt8=0.-Arg. 

 2047.'., the declination that of R. 8291 = 

 O.-Arg. 20493. 

 For 40™ read 41" prob., and the star = Y. 

 9078. 



8.0 should be* rather 4.0 — error car- 

 ried over from the ist edition. 

 No star seen in this place. By assuming 

 in Wa>h. Obs., 186-, p. 298, K'o. 38, the 

 micrometer reading 32 rev. instead of 

 39 rev., the declination would result 

 — 23° 49' 11". 1, and the star become 

 identical with No. 93^1. 

 In the Wash. Obs., Id46, p. 439, No. 520, 

 are two errors: for 3l3™ 46«.f'3 and iiO' 

 40".69 ought to be read 33'" 46'. 83 and 

 50' 14". 69. This makes the position for 

 181)0: 21" 34" 11M4; + 38° 52' 55".9; 

 which is therefore another ob.serv.Ttion 

 of Y. 9481. 

 This right ascension belongs .still to 7/ 

 Piseis Aust. ; that of Lac. 89n9 has not 

 been observed at Washington. 

 For 34M^4 read 37^84 (perhaps typo- 

 graphical error). 

 5,sm ivatl .">7'" — error of n duction from 

 Wash. Oi>s., 1809, where, on p. 289, 

 the right ascensiou is given cor- 

 rectly. The star is identical with 

 Y. 9. .69. 

 22' read 21'. The error exists already 

 iu Wa.sh. Obs., 1871, App. II., p. 96; 

 hut the originals for 1855 are not 

 publisbed. 

 15"> rea<l W'" (s. Wash. Obs., 1875). 

 13' 56". 7 read 9' 6".0 — error origi- 

 nated from erroneous refruclioii in 

 Wash. Obs., 18i'.9, p. 221, No. 44 ; for 

 5' U".8 read 0' 31". 0. The star is 

 identical with No. 10339. 

 Is still an other observation of ihe star just 

 menliont;d. In Wash. Obs., 1846, p. 18, 

 No. 12, the instrumental correction is 

 erroneously computed ; for +U^8i it 

 should be — 1''.35. Then the mean of 

 the 2 oliservations made in 1846 gives 

 tlie liglit a.scension of Y. 10339: 4:i".14 

 (2) instead of 42».93(1). Tlie declina- 

 tion (Wash. Obs , 18.i9,p. 218, No. 53) 

 is probably iu error by 1 revolution 

 :=31".2, and should be 5".l instead of 

 36". 3. 

 For 14' read 1' (misprint). The star is 

 Dm. +117°. 1562. 

 Is not O.-Arg. 23156, but 23141 (corrected 

 by -f 1'").
