[[/4 columned table]]

An examination of the above plates fails to show any evidence of variation in the plate at 7^[[h]] 3.3^[[m]] + 31° 1', and only a slight change in the star at 7^[[h]] 5.9^[[m]] + 31° 0',(1855), that is about 0.4 magn, which may be real but is probably due to the photographic images.
