Scientific paper

IN the number of NATURE for June 6, Prof. Asaph Hall, of Washington Observatory, called attention to what he regards as a singular oversight in the history of this subject, viz., that in 1770-1773 Lagrange published an elaborate memoir at Turin under the title ``Mémoire sur l'utilité de la Méthode de prendre le Milieu entre les résultats de plusieurs Observations, &c.'' Prof. Hall remarks that the only notice of this memoir he has seen is contained in the Berliner Jahrbuch for 1853, and that in the abstract of a memoir of mine on the subject in the notices of the Royal Astronomical Society for April 1872, the name of Lagrange does not appear.
