Abstract
THIS small work is divided into two sections. The first contains objects arranged according to the constellations, and chiefly selected from Sir John Herschel's Cape volume, which are within the scope of telescopes of very ordinary capacity, including double stars, clusters and nebulæ, with special reference to stars which may prove to be variable. The second section contains the more original work of the author, who was provided with telescopes 3 and 3.9 inches aperture, in the Punjab, and wholly relates to southern stars possibly variable, some new and noteworthy eases being adduced.
