Tuesday, May 3, the President (Mr. H. W. Sadler) in the 
chair. There were also present, Messrs. M‘Carthy, Bozon, 
Thornton, Abraham, and the Secretary, Mr. W. T. Pinhey. 
Upon the minutes of the last meeting being read, Mr.

of an auditor, vies Mr. Thornton, being confirmed, on the 
ground that auditors could not be appointed by th* Council,

was not, however, upheld, and, upon the vote of the remainder 
of the members, the minutes were confirmed. 
The Proposals of the Bo.utn of Technical Educ.4TI0N. 
Upon this adjourned matter coming on for discussion, Mr. 
Bozon moved a resolution to the following effect, viz: — “That 
no proposals which in any way affect the Laws and Con- 
stitution of the Society, or in any way interfere with its per- 
fect freedom of action, can be entertained.” A desultory 
discussion took place upon the wording of the resolution, it 
being thought by some members that the terms of the reso- 
lution might seem to reflect on theBoardof Technical Education. 
Finally, Mr. Bozon withdrew the resolution, and moved in its 
stead, the following: — “The Council having fully considered 
the suggestions or propositions made by the representatives 
of the Technical College to the representatives of the Pharma- 
ceutical Society, is of opinion that they cannot be entertained.” 
The resolution met with the full approval of the Council, was
