The general result of the comparison, as ex- pressed in the figures of the last column, is very remarkable. There appear to be many more stars of the first five magnitudes than there should be according to the hypothesis... of their uniform distri- bution in space. Rejecting the stars tabulated between the limits of the first and second magni- tudes as being too few from which to draw any reliable deduction, and also as comprising several stars, such as Arcturus and Vega, which should in strictness be excluded, as being too bright to be regarded even as first-magnitude stars, there is apparent in the record a crowding of the brighter stars, that diminishes with increasing faintness and becomes insignificant beyond the limit of the fifth magnitude that is, near the limit of visibility to the unaided eye.
