YOUR interesting reference (NATURE, January 24, p. 301) to Dr. Bredichin's investigation of the Perseid shower, induces me to offer one or two remarks on the subject. In the paragraph alluded to, it is stated that the radiant was observed from July 22 to September 12, 1893; but this long duration cannot possibly refer to the same system as that which furnishes the abundant maximum on August 10. It is true there are radiants in Perseus in September, and the succeeding months of October, November, and December supply many others, but, after the end of the third week in August, nothing is seen of the real Perseids. I cannot say exactly on how many nights the display continues active, but it is certainly visible from July 19 to August 18, and the diurnal motion of the radiant is about 1° to the E.N.E.
