IV. Resolved, — That these lists be recorded. 



The Secretary having represented that Rule XIII., which prescribes 

 that the Annual General Meeting shall be held in January, of every year, 

 appears to require revision as the London Booksellers' Accounts to the 

 end of each year are not usually received till about the middle of Febru- 

 ary, and, therefore, the Society's Accounts cannot be closed, and a state- 

 ment of them prepared for submission to a General Meeting, till near the 

 end of the latter month. 



V. Resolved, — That a revised rule, to the following effect be substitut- 

 ed for the rule in question. 



XIII. " That a General Meeting of the Subscribers be held annually, as 

 soon as possible after the Society's accounts for the preceding year have 

 been closed, and passed by the Managing Committee, and Statements of 

 them prepared for submission to the General Meeting." 



The Secretary reports that four Members of the Managing Committee 

 are required to be nominated to supply the places of Assistant Surgeon 

 Jerdon, W. McTaggart, Esq., the Rev. G. Knox, a. b., and T.Pycroft, 

 Esq., the two former of whom have left, and the two latter are about to 

 leave the Presidency.
