 Hemispheres', and a 'Catalogue of Constellations ', containing 12 constellations of the southern hemisphere which are not 

 in Thomas Hood's work.

' A problem in elasticity called by Lamp's name, viz. to investigate the conditions for equilibrium of a spherical elastic 

 envelope subject to a given distribution of load on the bounding spherical surfaces, and the determination of the resulting 

 shifts, is the only completely general problem on elasticity which can be said to be completely solved.' — Prof. Cajori.
