h. 4007, 4008, 4012. In the Catalogue of C.G.H. these nebulae are placed 
• erroneously in the 23 h of E.A., owing to a mistake of a whole hour in 
reducing. 
These constitute the group laid down by Lord Rosse as seen in and about the 
places of h. 84, 85, 86, viz. his a, j3, y, y', s, £, 6. Of these, a is No. 202 =h. 84 ; 
/3=No.203=h. 85; y=No.206=h.86 ; y'=No.205=86,a; S=No.209=86,6; 
g=No. 208=D’ArrestNo.l0; £=No.207=D’Arr. 9, and 0=86, c. In the MS. 
notes furnished me by Lord R. it is stated that a=h. 84, /3=h. 85, and 0=h. 86. 
The latter identification, however, is incorrect. 
214 h. 88=1. 54. This is not the I. 54 of the P.T., which proved to be one of 
Messier’s nebulae, but another subsequently inserted by W.H., so as not to 
break the order of the numbers, as appears from a MS. correction in P.T., and 
from Register (H. 570). 
These constitute Lord Rosse’s group seen in or near the place of h. 103, and 
marked in his diagram as A, /3, s, and another unlettered (which call y). 
These I identify as follows: — A=No. 276 =h. 103; /3=No. 277 = 103, b; 
y= No. 275=103, a ; S=No. 280=103, c; and g=No. 290=103, d. 
In reference to M. Auwers’s remark on the nebulae 170, 171, as also 167, 168 
(H. class III.), after very careful examination of all the data, I can arrive at no 
other conclusion than that embodied in the present Catalogue under these Nos,: 
h. 118 is certainly not III. 171, neither is h. 120. Both places and descriptions 
disagree. 
h. 119 was taken for III. 556, but no R.A. was obtained, that set down being the 
R.A. brought up from C.H. The descriptions differ so materially, especially in 
the particular of extension, that they are most probably distinct nebulae. 
330 h. 124=VII. 48. Auwers remarks in his ‘ Verbesserungen zu h,’ that this cluster, 
h. 124, is not nova, but VII. 48. This is correct. Re-examining sweep 216, I 
find an error of 1° committed in reducing the P.D. 
358 This is not in M. D’Arrest’s final list, communicated to me in MS. ; but being set 
down by M. Auwers as No. 15 in his ‘ Verzeichniss neuer Nebelflecke,’ I felt 
bound to retain it. 
418 h. 160=h. 2442=1. 62. This nebula, though set down by W.H. as of the 1st 
class (i. e. as a bright nebula), could not be seen by D’Arrest with the Leipzig 
Fraunhofer of 6-feet focus and 4^ inches aperture. It is marked in this Cata- 
logue, however, by a mean of 4 observations, only as “ F.” 
428 55 Andromedae. Although this star has been eight times examined by Lord Rosse 
without perceiving any nebulous , atmosphere, yet as my observation is corrobo-
