Observations of Nebule and Clusters of Stars. 43 
G. C. | h. & H. | — 
An 8 yellow *=B.W. 4" 524 f 41°-7, 185"-1 n of 866, from which we derive 
the following positions for 1860-0

867 4 24 47:3 95 21 49-2 [observed by d’Arrest.]

Many nebule within a degree or so, but no others seen near 866. 
1875, Jan 4. Could only see 3neb. 866 is-p B, L, irr. perhaps 1E ns. F,S,R 
neb. n of this, and a third v F, vS neb. in Pos. 102°:6, Dist. 156'-4 from 
866. About 1’ n of the third neb. an e F neb. knot was suspected (?). The 
following measures were taken from a * 12 m. np 866.

vation from 1850 shows. Not having remarked the misprint in the N.P.D. 
90° for 93°, I looked for it in 1876 sf 877, but of course without finding 
any nebula there. D.] (V. obs.)

1855, Jan. 15. The conspicuous * involved in n end of neb. has a F comp np, 
very distinct with 1} inch single lens. h’s coarse D * must be triple (third 
* much fainter than the other two). 
1863, Jan. 13. Np the * inn end there is either a v F * or a continuation of 
neby. Jam not sure whether the * at n end is involved or not.

879 V. 49 ~=| 1872, Oct 11. Not found ; many S stars, but no nebulosity detected. 
1875, Dec. 4. Eyepiece a little dewed ; doubtful whether any nebulosity was 
seen. Many vF, vS groups of stars near the set. (II. obs.)

Herschel makes the * to follow by 12%5 and D’Arrest by 14°:2. If we 
assume the dist. to have been 1 rev.=65':1 too small we have ‘the true
