As an illustration of the efficiency of the Micrometer
described in my former paper, I give the following series of

November, 1888 for Alpha Centauri.
I also give for comparison, measures taken with the Filar
Micrometer, from 19th March to 26th May, 1888; and from
19th September to 21st November, 1888.
