comparative Brightness of the Stars. 213 
34 Is equal to 88 Pegasi, which the catalogue has 2m. See 
88 Pegasi. 
35 Is less than 4,1, contrary to the catalogue, “ Oct. 13, 
1786, 5 . 6m." There is no magnitude of 33 in Flamsteed's 
observations. 
40 Is larger than 61, contrary to the catalogue. This is a 
considerable deviation, amounting to i^-m. In the observa- 
tions 40 is 7m, 61 6m. 
41 Is larger than 49 and 35, contrary to the catalogue. It 
is also contrary to the observations. “ Oct. 13, 1786, 41 
6.3m." 
42 Is larger than 43, 39 and 33, contrary to the catalogue. 
The observations give 6m to 33. 
43 Is less than 71. See 71. There is no magnitude to either 
of these stars in Flamsteed's observations. 
48 Is less than 62, contrary to the catalogue ; and is now 
probably less bright than it was formerly. 48 being but little 
brighter than 32 confirms the same. There is no observation 
of 48, but 62 is 3m. 
39 Is less bright than 66, contrary to the catalogue. The 
observations give 39 6m. 
71 Is brighter than 69, contrary to the catalogue. These 
stars are so near each other that a change must be evident, 
unless Flamsteed should have made a mistake in writing 
down their magnitudes. 71 , 43 confirms the same conclu- 
sion. In the observations neither 69 nor 71 has a magnitude 
assigned. 
72. There is no observation of Flamsteed upon this star. 
78 Is less than 81, contrary to the catalogue ; and in the 
observations it is 3m.
