      By the kind permission of H.M. Stationery Office some copies of the historical portion of this work have been printed for distribution amongst my private friends, to many of whom the morę technical account of the Observatory and its instruments would be of little interest.
      The complete work is the property of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, and is published by His Majesty!s Stationery Office.
      I am much indebted to Mr E. B. Knobel for his kind assistance in readingr the proof sheets; to Mr John Power, of the Cape Observatory, for preparation of the Appendices I., II, and III. ; and to Captain Lyons, F.R.S., for revising the translation of Dr Bahn!s paper on the Geodetic Survey of South Africa, which is given in Appendix IV.
