Abstract
ENCKE'S COMET AND OTHERS.—Encke's comet was observed by Mr. R. Jonckheere at Greenwich Observatory on March i. It appeared as a large diffused nebulosity of magnitude 8½, without visible nucleus or tail. The position accorded well with the ephemeris lately given in NATURE. The brightness is now increasing, but the comet is drawing, too near the sun for convenient observation.
