Abstract
WITH regard to the employment of uncompensated chronometers (NATURE, vol. x. p. 63), I have every reason to believe that the Russians alone have tested them. For some reason which is not easily discovered, the employment of a negatively compensated chronometer has not given any very remarkable results. The Russians have employed simply an uncompensated chronometer; and have obtained very remarkable results as mentioned in my article on the Transit of Venus to which Prof. Everett has alluded.
