FROM letters I have received, it appears that the table of exposures given in my ``Notes'' is not correctly understood. It is necessary to explain again that the reason why the plate exposed 8 secs. gave a better result than the one exposed 30 secs. was because the eclipsed sun was nearly covered by cloud during the long exposure, and was quite clear during the short. The 30 secs. plate would have been greatly over-exposed for certain details, but the outer corona would probably have been more clearly defined. By giving some plates short and others long exposures, it was intended to show different effects, as would certainly have been the case if we had been favoured with a cloudless sky.
