NGC 7793
NGC 55
M110
M32
M31 (Andromeda) - Try Bino's
NGC 253 (Sculptor)
NGC 247
SMC - Bino's or unaided eye
NGC 300
M33 (Pinwheel) - Try Bino's
M74
NGC 1291
Fornax A Radio Source (Also Fornax Galaxy cluster - best with low power wide field eyepiece, numerous galaxies).
M77

P.S. Forgot to mention they are all galaxies. Note too M42, Great Orion Nebula will rise before midnight.
