Read the following letter from Lieut. -Colonel Stacy addressed to the 

 Sub-Secretary. 



My dear Sir,— At page 81 of Proceedings, No. 163, July, 1845, you are quoted as 

 the authority for Captain Cautley having said I presented the two articles he took down 

 for me from Futteyghur to the Society. As I understand Captain Cautley has sailed, 

 allow me to correct this mistake. They are not presented to the Society but simply sent 

 for submission to the Society and then to be placed with the rest of my property in the 

 museum. 



I beg you will dome the favour of communicating accordingly to the Society. Will you 

 also do me the favor to request that a spare print of any published coins may always be 

 sent with my copy of the journal, I should be obliged by your sending me plates, Nos. 1 

 and 2, of Indo Sythic coins, by Lieut. Cunningham. 



Your's, &c. 



Meemtt, December 1st, 1845. S. B. Stacy. 



The Sub-Secretary explained that his present impression was still that 

 Captain Cautley had not only presented the antiquities from Col. Stacy,

 to find. It was ordered that the note should be printed as a record. 



Captain Marshall objected to the infringement of the rules of the 

 Society, in the case of the Committee of Papers having engaged in 

 certain financial arrangements which they ought not to have interfered 

 with. He urged a recurrence to the strict letter of the rules restrict- 

 ing the Committee to the execution of their own peculiar duties. 



An explanation was offered by the Secretary, which went to shew
