1. M. Casini hath dilcovered many New Stars : vl%. One of the Fourth By m. Oilim.Magnitude, and two of' the Fifih, i nXaffiopcia. He hath dilcovered two others n - 7 ?- ?- 2201 'towards the beginning of Iiridanur, wherc wc were fure they were not yecabout the end of the Vear 1664. considering that this Place of the Heavens,where pafled the then appearing Comet , was diligently beheld by many, whoperceived divers other Irnall Stars, without observing thole two. The famehath also observed, towards the Arctick. Pole, 4 of the Fifth or Sixth MagnitudeHc hath also observed, That the Star which Baycrus puts near that whicbhe roarketh in the Figure of Vrsa Minor, appears no more ; That thatwhich is marked A, in the Figure of Andromeda, is also disappear’d }. Thatin; liett of that which is marked v, at the Bjtce of the fame Figure, stiereare two others more Northward ; and. that, that which is noted is verysnuch diministu ; the Star, which Tycho placeth at the Extremst/ of A*i.Lc»mcda's Chain, and calls it of the Fourth Magnitude,. is now so (mall that
