      [For the entire collection see Zbl 0685.00001.] In our earlier paper [\textit{A. I. Bondal}, \textit{A. I. Kostrikin} and the author, Mat. Sb., Nov. Ser. 130(172), 435-465 (1986; Zbl 0634.10028)] invariant lattices associated with an orthogonal decomposition of the Lie algebra of type \(A_{p-1}\) (\(p\) an odd prime) were studied. In this work two of the most interesting lattices --- the root lattice of type \(E_ 8\) (\(p=3\)) and the Leech lattice (\(p=5\)) --- are considered, and some properties of their automorphism groups are noted. In particular, it is shown that \(Co_ 1\) (the first Conway's sporadic simple group) is generated by a subgroup \(G=5^ 2: SL_ 2(5)\) and a certain element \(\varphi\) of order 5. The action of \(G\) and \(\varphi\) on the Leech lattice is described explicitly.
