The greater part of these Stars have been observed by myself in the Me- 

 ridian, whence I have deduced their mean places for the beginning of 1823, as 

 follows.

B. Comet of September and October 1822, in Ophiucho. 



I have stated on a former occasion that I was not the first discoverer of this 

 Comet in Paramatta ; but the following original observations thereof, which 

 have never been published before, were made by myself.
