NOTES. 



In the following lists I have given (1) an exact copy of the title of the 

 article, pamphlet, memoir or book mentioned; (2) the name of the publisher or 

 the place of publication; (3) the date of publication. 



The authorship of several anonymous articles by Newcomb in the Atlantic 

 Monthly and North American Review has been determined by the indices to these 

 monthlies published a few years ago. 



In such publications as the "Washington Observations" and the "Astronomical 

 Papers" the date on the title page of a volume may be altogether different from 

 that of the publication of an included memoir. 



The arrangement is chronological.
