256 Mr. herschel on the proper Motion 
by el am stead, and being of the 6th ferves to point out the 
change of the other two in a very evident manner. 
y Lyrae is much larger than ( 3 . 
The change in the magnitudes of the 31ft and 34th Dra- 
conis is very ftriking, thefe two ftars being juft the contrary of 
what they are marked in flamstead’s catalogue. The 31ft 
from the 7th is increafed to the 4th ; and the 34th, from being 
a ftar between the 4th and 5th, is reduced to one of the 6th, 
if not 7th magnitude. 
The 44th Cancri is much too fmal'l for the 6th magnitude* 
As s and others are marked of the 6th, this, on being com- 
pared to them, can be intitled to no more than the 8th or 9th 
order. 
The 96th Tauri is final! enough to be of the 8th magnitude* 
though marked as one of the 6th. 
The 6 2d Arietis is of the 5th magnitude, though only 
marked of the 6th. 
The magnitudes, of the 12th and 14th Lyncis are juft the 
reverfe in the heavens to what flam stead has marked them* 
This denotes a double change of a ftar from the 5th to the 
yth, and from the 7th to the 5th magnitude. 
The 38th Perfei, marked of the 6th magnitude, is increafed 
fo as to be equal to Q and x of the 4th. Alfo, Q is lefs than 
r contrary to flamstead. 
The 8th Monocefotis is lefs than the 76th Orionis, though 
the former fhould be of the 4th, and the latter only of the 
6 th magnitude. 
The 23d Geminorum, though marked of the 5th, is lefs 
than the 21ft of between the 6th and 7th magnitude.
