60 spectrograms have been obtained at the Hoher List Observatory for an investigation of the peculiar spectroscopic binary V 389 Cyg. The spectrum of the single-line binary shows enhanced Si II lines so that the star can be classified as a silicon B 9p star. The period found earlier by Young (1921) and Guthnick (1938) is improved to 3.313168 + or - 0.000008 days. New orbital elements are derived. The unusually large scatter around the radial velocity curve can be attributed to a variable center-of-mass velocity resulting from a revolution about a third unseen component with the period of 154.09 + or - 0.02 days. The elements of the long-period orbit are determined. Additional peculiarities which seem to be present in Guthnick's spectroscopic data and which have been interpreted by him as delta Cephei-like variability have not been recognized in our data.
