Schultz discovered 13 NGC-objects using the 9.6" Steinheil refractor at Uppsala. They are published in: (1) AN #1541 (1865); (2) AN 1555 (1865), objects from this source are named by "No."; (3) Micrometrical Observations of 500 Nebulae, Nova Acta Soc. Sc. Upsala, Ser III, Vol. IX (1874), objects from this source are named "Nova"; (4) MN 35, 135 (1875), which is an extract of the preceeding, main publication of Schultz. Only 2 objects are galaxies, all other single stars or pairs.

There are 4 other NGC objects credited to Schultz by Dreyer, but they are found earlier by others. Thre are due to Lord Rosse III: NGC 20 (which is also Swift's NGC 6) and NGC 90 are galaxies in Andromeda, NGC 7553 is a galaxy in Pegasus. The fourth object, the galaxy NGC 7571 in Pegasus, found by Schultz on autuum 1867 (ref. 3; see also notes to h 2219) is identical with NGC 7597, discovered by Marth on Oct. 23, 1864.
