On the Occultations of the Fixed Stars. 163 



and in such a position that the hnninous part of the moon 

 may be always kept out of sight. 



The present hst contains the occultations for 1 824. only : 

 but I think it proper to state that I have also received die list 

 for the first lialf of the year 1825; with an offer of those for 

 the remainder of that year, and fo- the subsequent years, if 

 I think they may be of any service to the cause of astronomy. 

 The zeal and interest which M. Lighirami has always shown 

 in this science, are well known to most of your astronomical 

 readers ; and entitle him to their warmest thanks' It is in the 

 formation and calculation of these and other useful tables that 

 he exercises the talent and ingenuity of the pupils of the 

 School of Astronomy at Florence, over which he so honourably 

 presides. I hope, before long, to be able to obtain a copy of 

 the general tables, from which these annual computations are 

 made. 



I am, gentlemen, your obedient servant, 

 Gray's Inn, Sept. 26, 1823. Francis Bailv. 



fWe have not room in tliis iSiimber for more than the first four months 

 of the list iibove mentioned: the rest shall follow in succession.— Eurr.]
