Sept. 17. 19 48. The 5th fat, of \ 30° nf. R. and at the 
diftance of about 3 dia. of R. (Q). 
Sept. 1 8. 21 15. About 2 dia. of R. and near 40° north 
following (R). 
Sept. 20. 23 24. The 5th fat. is within a degree of its con- 
junction. It is north of ip , and its motion is retrograde,

Saturn, falls towards the following iide flVort of the center by 
4 dia. of Tp .

I have ufed this obfervation for fettling the epocha of this fateilite, in which I 
have made no other allowance than that of the geocentric place of Saturn, as I 
knew this would anfwer all my purpofes. But when we would obtain the mean 
motion of this fateilite in comparing its prefent place with other fituations at a 
great diftance of time, proper redudions of the geocentric place of J? to the 
orbit of this fateilite fhould be made. This may, however, be done much better 
when the real fituation of its orbit is properly afcertained.
