We tender our thanks 10 Lieut.. Maury the ae-
compIshed aud energetic superintendent OF the Ma
tional Observatory, for the valuable communication
which he has furnished US, and which We give be-
low. We understand that before the intelligence OF
the discovery ofthe planet at Berlin had reached ths
country, Lieut. Maury had found time, 10 The midst
of the other avocations Of the Observatory,
to search for the new luminary, and, taking
the vague newspaper accounts Of lie Verrier's
observations for his guide, had carried his searches
to point where the very next sweep of his nstru-
ment must, in the course he was pursuing, have
brought the planet into his field Of vision

1890, one observation only of Flamsteed, 1873

1850, two observations of Lernonnier, IA
1853, two observations, very correct made
by Mayer and Bradley, 40
l764, one observation by Lemonner, 40
l766, eight observations by do 81
1t will be seen, without doubt, that the most exact
observations, those whose exactitude is confirmed
by the other observations all represented with the
most scrupulous nicely. These the opposition
of IT'S, the observations made by Bradley and
Mayer, and lastly those made by Lemonnier in
1853 and 1863.
| cannot find in the immediate discussion of the
observation made by Famsteed in 1890, any guar
anty of correctness.
will close this analysis with one remark, which
appears very necessary to carry the conviction to
the mind, that the theory which have laid before
you is the expression of the truth. The essential
character Of the correctness Of all theory is that il
can satisfy, not only the whole work, but also the
mnuest detail Of the observations.
Now, the observations have opened our eyes
to the fact, as in lS45, that the errors of the
ancient tables of Uranus, are not the same
at the moment ofthe quadrature, at the moment
Of the opposition; which cannot but show the in
of the value of the radius vector, which
these tables make too small The new theory should
if be correct, augment the radius vecor of Uranus
in such a manner as to cause the quadratures tc
agree with the oppositons. This is what is actu.
ally the case. | will examine, in a future ar.
Gle, if il be possible TO deduce from the observa
tons, the actual latitude Of the planet. This latitude
will certainly be very smal--thus we may Judge
from an inspection Of the ATTITUDES of Uranus tina
they differ very little with the tables in use.
