to Concord this week, I laid hands on this paper, which

The President has received a letter from England
informing him that one of the prize Medals given
this winter by the Royal Society of London was for
the discovery of the changes of appearance which
take place every three days in the star Algol. It is

a star of first magnitude, to a very small one, &
afterwards to recover its brightness.

Yours sincerely
