In Tables II., III., and IV., column I. represents the dates of the
periods, column II. the eccentricity, column III. the longitude of
the perihelion. In Table IV. the eccentricity and the longitude of
the perihelion of the six periods marked with an S are copied from a
letter of Mr. Stone to Sir Charles Lyell, published in the Supplement
of the Phil. Mag. for June, 1865; the eight periods marked L are copied
from M. Leverrier’s Table, to which reference has been made. For the
correctness of everything else, both in this Table and in the other
three, I alone am responsible.
