sufficiently near to admit both observations to belong to the 
same satellite. 
March 27, 1794. We find a third observation, -which will 
assist in supporting the two former ones. A glimpse of a sa- 
tellite is mentioned, which was preceding the 1st, but nearer 
the planet. The position of the 1st satellite the same evening 
was, by measuring, found to be 6V, 1 N.F. which is still a 
considerable way from its greatest elongation ; but our new 
satellite preceded it, and was therefore more advanced in its 
orbit, or nearer its greatest distance ; and yet the observation 
says, that it was not so far from the planet as the 1st; not- 
withstanding this latter was in a more contracted part of its 
orbit. It follows therefore that this was also an interior satel- 
lite. Now, since we may allow these three observations to be- 
long to the same, we ought not to make a distinction; but 
admit, as sufficiently established, the existence of at least one 
interior satellite of our new planet. 
An intermediate Satellite. 
March 2 6, 17 94. A satellite was suspected, directly north 
of the planet. At first it could not be verified, but was seen 
perfectly well afterwards. It was supposed that probably it 
might be a star, but this was left undecided. The observation 
of March 27th however removes all doubt upon the subject ; as 
it fully affirms that the small star observed the 26th, at n h 32', 
was gone from the place in which it was the day before. Such 
strong circumstances are mentioned in confirmation, that we 
cannot hesitate placing this among the list of existing satellites.
