After which, on motion of Dr. D. G. Brinton, it was resolved 
to postpone all further consideration of the matter until the 
presence of the mover in Council. 
The following resolution, recommended by Council, was then 
taken up: 
“That Council recommends that all papers presented for publication by 
the Society must be complete and ready for the printer at that time when 
so presented, and that they shall not be substantially altered after such 
presentation without the express permission of the Society ; and further, 
that no paper shall be received that is not complete.”’ 
The Treasurer spoke of the heavy bills for printing the 
Society’s publications, of which a great proportion of the ex- 
pense was incurred for authors’ alterations. 
Dr. Brinton offered the following addition to the motion as 
an amendment : 
“And that all alterations, duly authorized by the Society, shall be 
printed at the expense of the author.”’ 
The resolution as amended was then unanimously adopted 
by the Society. 
The Society then proceeded to consider the Library of the 
Society’s being opened from 10 A.M. to 3 P.M. on such days as 
it is required to be open.

connected with it to the Committee on Library. Dr. Brinton 
moved to lay the whole matter on the table, which motion, 
being put to a vote, was adopted.

bility of reproducing the MSS. of the Aztec tribute roll, 
owned by the Society, and moved that the Chair appoint a 
committee of three members to ascertain the cost of its repro- 
duction and. publication in the Transactions of the Society, 
accompanied by suitable letter-press. 
The resolution being put to a vote was adopted, and the 
Chair appointed as such Committee, Messrs. Brinton, Phillips, 
and Morris. 
And the Society was adjourned by the presiding member.
