A. The Comet of Encke in 1822. 



By the assistance of Professor Encke's Ephemeris of this Comet, I was en- 

 abled to re-discover it on the 22nd of June 1822, and shall now give my ob- 

 servations thereof more correctly reduced than they were transmitted by me 

 at first for insertion in Professor Schumacher's Astronomische Nachrkhten. 



The compared fixed Stars have been designated in their order in the Latin 

 and Greek alphabets. -|- means that the Comet had more, — that it had less 

 right ascension than the Star ; e is P. VI. 144 ; g is 2 | Geminorum ; k, p. 312, 

 Hist. Cel. ; 1 is 90 Geminorum Bode. The differences of declination are given 

 in parts of the Micrometer, one part of which is = 65".518.
