OBSERVATIONS OF LUMINOUS MKTEORS. 



221 



Supplementary Table and general Radiant-list (continued), showing the cor- 

 roborations of former meteor-showers and new radiant-points, derived by- 

 Mr. Greg from the Eadcliffe Observations of 1870-74, the British Asso- 

 ciation Catalogues in these Reports of 1867-74, and from private sources 

 (R. P. Greg, A. S. Herschel, J. E. Clark, T. W. Backhouse), including about 

 1000 observations independent of the periodic meteor-streams of Perseids, 

 Orionids, Leonids, Andromedes, Geminids, Lyraids, and of meteors belong- 

 ing to the annual star-shower of the lst-3rd of January. — Supplement to 

 the general list of Radiant-points 1874 (volume of these Reports for 1874, 

 p. 324), by R. Greg.
