360 Dr. Herschel’s observations of the satellites 
identification, was 8i° sp. The 18th of April, when the stars 
that were pointed out were looked after, and were all found 
remaining in their places, no star could be seen where the 
interior satellite had been situated the 1 7th ; nor could it be 
expected to be visible, as, by its motion towards the planet, it 
must already have been involved in the splendour of its light. 
An intermediate satellite. 
The 26th of March, 1794. an intermediate satellite was 
seen ; by the configuration its distance was greater than that 
of the first, but less than that of the second By identifica- 
tion its situation must have been 59-5- 0 nf. The 27th of March, 
the satellite was no longer in the place where it had been seen 
the 26th, and moreover, a very small star was seen in a place 
that agreed with what would be the situation of an interme- 
diate satellite, had it accompanied the planet. 
An exterior satellite. 
The 9th of February, 1790, an exterior satellite was ob- 
served. It was by the configuration at double the distance of 
the second satellite, and by identification, its position was 6 i~° 
sf. The observations of two succeeding days proved, that it 
remained no longer in the place where it had been seen on 
the 9th. 
The 27th of March, 1794, some distant stars south of the 
planet were observed as being supposed satellites ; but they 
are not sufficiently supported by succeeding observations. 
The 5th of March 1 796, a star was seen, which the night 
before had not been in the place where it was at the time of 
the observation. By the configuration its identified place
