IN connection with the interesting investigations of Dr. Chandler on the variation of latitude, permit me to suggest the desirability of calling attention to Maxwell's remarks on the same subject at the conclusion of his paper ``On a Dynamical Top,'' Ed. Phil. Trans., xxi., Part iv. p. 568 (read April 1857). Maxwell, taking the value of as 1.00309, as deduced from the amount of precession (Pontécoulant, ii. 268), finds the time of revolution of the pole of the earth about the true pole to be about 325.6 solar days. Dr. Chandler's period of 427 days would on the same principles correspond to the value = 1.00235.
