HAVING attempted some years ago to determine the number of magic squares of five having a nucleus forming a magic square of three, I was interested to find that further progress towards a solution of the problem has been made by your correspondent Mr. C. Planck, who seems to have found fifty-one solutions more than I from the same twenty-six nuclei, whereas I have only in one case, namely for the nucleus R (5, 7), found one more solution than he. The twenty-one solutions for this nucleus are appended in the following table, from which both the equations and the numbers forming the first row and the first column of the border may be read off without difficulty, if the first dotted number be put at the head of the column, and at the foot of the same the complement of the second. Thus, from the first row of the table, .
