I HAVE summarised in a form which may be convenient for comparison some of the results of Perseid observations this year. The differences in some cases are remarkable, and sufficiently prove that to arrive at definite conclusions respecting the character of a shower a large number of materials should be consulted and averaged. Weather conditions are dissimilar, the places of observation are not equally well situated (certain positions in towns are much affected by artificial light), and there are other causes which must introduce discordances. Though comparatively few Perseids were observed at Bristol and Meltham on August 10, they were fairly numerous at Blaina and Antwerp, and on the night of August 12, when, a rich display of brilliant meteors was remarked at Bristol, there was no striking exhibition witnessed at several other places.
