8i Mr, South's observations of the apparent distances 



No. CCCCLXXXVI. continued. 



Blackman-street ; January 27, 1824 ; Five-feet Equatorial. 

 6tli and I2th magnitudes. 

 Position =59° 20' nf-±. ; single observation. 

 The small star will not bear the slightest illumination ; measures of distance • 



impracticable. 



Passy ; March 18, 1825 j Seven-feet Equatorial. 



6\ and 12th magnitudes. 



Distance:: 1' 59".309±: | 5 Obs. | Diff. = i".370. Excessively difficult. 



The star E is also double of the 5th class ; but its smaller star, which is south 

 preceding, is so extremely faint, that although the night is unusually fine, I cannot 

 obtain even approximate measures of it.

6th and 12th magnitudes. 



Distance = i\^6".g20 ± | 5 Obs. [ DifF. = o".793. Excessively difficult. 



Observations liable to some inaccuracy.
