Double; 10th and io|- magnitudes. 
Passy; January 17 , 1825 ; Seven-feet Equatorial. 
Neither star bears sufficient illumination, and the observations of distance may- 
perhaps be a little inaccurate.

Mean Result. 
Position 17 0 37' sp ; Distance 2 ". 822 ; Epoch 1824.95. 
The position in 1783 was 15 0 48' nf, so that there is no 
reason to suppose any change in this star, as there is so little 
difference in their magnitudes, that the larger might easily 
be mistaken for the smaller, and thus 180° difference in posi- 
tion arise. (H.)
