Zone Observations at the Observatory of Santiago de Chile. — From 1855 

 to 1860 Moesta observed zones between — 40° 30' and — 46°, making- 

 10,200 observations. These were ready for printing in 1866. Other 

 zone observations appear to have been made in 1861 and 1862. Both 

 series were to be printed at the expense of the Government, according 

 to a note in the V. J. S. der Ast. Gesell. 1866, p. 22, but it is believed 

 these never were printed. The ground is now completely covered by 

 the catalogue of Stone (1880) and the great catalogue and zones of 

 Gould. 



Resultate aus den in Pullcowa angcstcllten Vergleichungen von Procyon 

 mit benachbarten Sternen. Yon Ludwig Struve, St. Petersburg, 18S3, 48 

 pp. 4to (Mem. de VAcad. Imp. des sciences, VII. Serie). — In 1873 An- 

 wers showed that all the measures of Procyon from neighboring tele- 

 scopic stars made up to that date agreed well with his circular elements 

 deduced from meridian observations. Since then Procyon has been reg- 

 ularly observed in Pulkowa, and M. L. Struve has now utilized the ob- 

 servations for a new determination of the parallax and orbit. In 1852 

 M. Wagner commenced with the large transit instrument to observe 

 the differences of R. A. between Proycon and four stars fairly symmet- 

 rically situated —
