 8th and 15 th magnitudes. 

 Position = 54° 56' nf | 3 Obs. | DifF. = 3° 47'. Excessively difficult. 

 • Measures of distance cannot be procured ; the small star will not bear the slight- 

 est illumination. Observed with 105 j with 179 the small star was invisible. The 

 accuracy of the results is I fear somewhat questionable.

Position = 54® 37' nf I 5 Obs. 

 Distances: 2o".i97 \ 5 Obs. 



Diff! = °".to4 1 E^c^"^^<^V difficult. 



Observed with the ordinary power of 179, on the meridian. Night cloudy. 

 Stars of considerable southern declination are alone visible, but they are unusually 

 bright, and tolerably steady. 



Mean Result.

It is the double star first alluded to in the observations of 34 Bode Off. Typog. j 

 and its smaller star has nearly the same R. A. as the larger star of 34 Off. Typog.
