If it does, Calandrelli asks that Secchi write it to him in brief. Calandrelli goes on to describe summarily the observations of Donati, Dembowski, the astronomers of the Pulkovo Observatory, the astronomers of the Reale Museo di fisica e storia naturale di Firenze, and himself regarding this Saturnian phenomenon.
