Abstract
THE note by Mr. T. Hayashi, published in NATURE of March 28, suggests to me the following little historical remark. The method given by Mr. Hayashi for the cubics is due to Monge, “Correspondance sur l'École impériale polytechnique,” par M. Hachette, vol. iii. p. 201; “Solution graphique de l'équation du troisième degré, x3 - px + q = o,” par M. Monge.
