* The quantity marked lj 12°, 58, which is applied to every one of the rate ites, 
is the complement of 11 s if 25', or geocentric place ot Saturn, taken rom 
the Nautical Almanac, for midnight of the required day, and to the neare t 
minute, which is iufficiently exaft. This complement,^ or 12° 35' m comoim
