ference to neighbouring changeable stars has hitherto rendered 
it difficult to come at the truth. In Flamsteed's observations 
it is three times gm, and twice 4m. 
67. This star is probably changeable. Flamsteed's ob- 
servations give it twice 3m. 
69 Is less than 54, contrary to the catalogue ; but the mag- 
nitudes in the observations are favourable to my notation. 
78 Is larger than 93, contrary to the catalogue. The latter 
has no magnitude in the observations, and the former is marked 
6m. 
95 Is less than 102, contrary to the catalogue. The ob- 
servations give 95 twice 4m, and 102 once 4m, and once 5m. 
99 Is less than 100, 106 and 107, contrary to the catalogue; 
and also to the magnitudes of the observations. It is larger 
than 104, which is doubly inconsistent with the catalogue, 
and yet the observations also give to 104 a larger magnitude. 
105 Is less than 106, contrary to the catalogue. The ob- 
servations give once 3m, and once 6m. “ July 17, 1785;
