§ VII. Bye-Laws (General). 
1. The government of the Society, and the management of its 
concerns are entrusted to the Council, subject to no other restric- 
tions than are herein imposed, and to no other interference than 
may arise from the acts of Members in General Meeting assembled. 
2. With respect to the duties of the President, Vice-Presidents, 
and other Officers and Members of Council, and any other matters 
not herein specially provided for, the Council may make such regu- 
lations and arrangements as they deem proper, and as shall appear to 
them most conducive to the good government and management of 
the Society, and the promotion of its objects. And the Council may 
hire apartments, and appoint persons not being Members of the 
Council, nor Members or Associates of the Institute, to be salaried 
officers, clerks, or servants, for carrying on the necessary business of 
the Society ; and may allow them respectively such salaries, gra- 
tuities, and privileges, as to them, the Council, may seem proper ; 
and they may suspend any such officer, clerk, or servant from his 
office and duties, whenever there shall seem to them occasion ; 
provided always, that every such appointment or suspension shall be 
reported by the Council to the next ensuing General Meeting of the 
Members, to be then confirmed or otherwise as such Meeting may 
think fit.
