Gore — On Sufijjecfed Variable Stars. 373; 



From this observation I would estimate the magnitude of 47 to be 

 about 0'6 on the above date. Sir AY. Hersehel's sequence compared 

 with the above observation seems to point to 44 as the probable vari- 

 able. February 24, 1884, 47 considerably less than 44, but thi-ee 

 steps brighter than 39. 



1^0. 460. S BooTis. — 4-3 Ptolemy, and Sufi ; 3 m. Lalande, Harding, 

 Argelander, and Heis ; 3-1 Gould (1858); 3-5 Chandler; 3-44 Prit- 

 chard (1882-452). Dr. Gould states {A.I^., 1620) that " Mr. Chandler 

 is confident that he has seen SBootis vary." Heis's Olservations, 1844- 

 1849 show S from one to four steps fainter than (i. Franks found it a 

 "bright 4 m., but scarcely 3^m" April 21, 1878 {private Letter). Sir 

 W. Herschel gives 27 (y) — , 49 (8) 42 (/?) — , 49 and y - - 49. 



March 23, 1884, I estimated it 3-5 — one step less than /?. 



1^0. 461. Stutjve 1932 Coeon^ Boeeaxis. — A double star 5-6, 6-1 : 

 299°-3 : 0"-96 (1875). Struve suspected the comes of variation. This 

 star is not in Heis' Catalogue. It seems to be LL 27943 (6 m.). 



March 7, 1884, below 6 m. ; March 21, 1884, I estimated it 6-8. 



No. 462. Lacaille 6320 Ltjpi. — 7 m. Lacaille. Taylor suspected 

 variation, and Gould confirms the suspicion, the Cordoba estimates 

 varying from 6'8 to 7^. 



1^0. 463. SLtrpi. — 3J Lacaille; 3-7 at Cordoba. Dr. Gould sus- 

 pects variation in this star from 3-4 to 3-7. 



No. 464. Lacaille 6308 Teiangtjli Atjsteaiis — 6-5 Caj^e Cata- 

 logue (1874-46). A comparison star for the variable E,. Trianguli 

 Australis. According to the Cordoba estimates it varies between 6-4 

 and 6-8 {U. A., p. 261). 



No. 465.-TErANGTJLi AusTEALis. — A comparison star for E. Tri- 

 anguli Australis. It seems to vary from 7-0 to 7-8 from observations 

 at Cordoba. 



No. 466. e LiBEAE. — 4 m. Lalande, Harding, Tycho Brahe, and 

 Hevelius ; 5 Heis; 5^ m. Armagh Catalogue; 5-3 Radcliffe Catalogue 

 (1860); 5-5 Gould; 5* Franks, April 15, 1878. On May 5, 1875, and 

 23 May, 1876, I found c fainter than 37 Libr» (5 Heis) 5-15 H.P. 



No. 467. Lacaille, 6417 Lupi. — 7 m. Lacaille. Missed at Cor- 

 doba in June and July, 1875. Observed in 1876, as 8 m., June 27, 

 and below 9^, Aug. 5; afterwards found a little below 7-0. 



No. 468. Lacaille 6439 Ltjpi.— 7 m. Lacaille; 5-8 Tarnall, 1862. 

 Its brightness varies, according to Gould, thi'ough half a magnitude 

 {TI.A.,^. 278).
