Jan. 20, 1857. A close irregiEar cl. of vS. *s ; figure as 
sketched, one * rather brighter than the rest; forms 
as it were a nucleus, round which the others are grouped, 
hut principally np. side of it. 
Sketched ttree times. Feh. 28, 1850. S. * near a L. one ; the 
L. * f. the neb. has a comp ; this, No. 393, is an enor- 
mous neby, which I traced f. and n. of it to a great 
distance, some degrees. It narrows at times to a hand * 
across the finding-eyepiece of about 6' or 8'. I fancied the number of L. *s was greater 
in it than in the neighbourhood ; I am certain the number of S. *s is much less. In 
a small space, taken at random in its neighbourhood, I reckoned upwards of 20 S. *s. 
In a similar space in it, taken at random, but 3. See fig. II, Plate XXVII. 
Feb. 22, 1851. 2 #s in p. part of the neb. Nothing additional to what is in the ‘ Trans- 
actions’ for 1850. 
No neby. found, and only a few *s arranged in pairs ; no cl. Has there been a change 
here? 
E ; with rays. 
Jan. 10, 1856. S. cl. of S. *s ; oblong nearly p. and f. 
The southern one has nucleus. 
Dec. 8, 1850. 5 nebulous knots.

Although 21 observations have been made 
since the sketch appeared in the ‘Transactions’ of 1850, nothing additional has been 
discovered, except that the outer luminous ring is of unequal brightness. 
Jan. 21, 1857. S. *■ close to n. edge. 
Neat little cl. of vS. *s. It looks in finder like a r. neb.

No description. 
Dec. 8, 1850. Dark space more eccentric than in the drawing in the ‘Transactions’ for 1850. 
The larger of the 2 *s is in the dark space, the other s. of it in the neb ; a 3rd *
