THE MEDICAL EXAMINER.
PHILADELPHIA, FEBRUARY, 1850.
NATIONAL CONVENTION FOR THE REVISION OF THE PHARMACOPOEIA.
The call for this Convention, to meet in the City of Washington on
the first Monday in May, 1850, has been made by the proper authority,
and we would call attention to the importance of an early appointment
of Delegates by the bodies who have a right to representation. These
bodies are “the several incorporated State Medical Societies, the
incorporated Medical Colleges, the incorporated Colleges of Physicians
and Surgeons, and the incorporated Colleges of Pharmacy, throughout
the United States.” The names of the Delegates appointed are to be
sent officially to Dr. G. B. Wood, Philadelphia, Vice President of the
last Convention. We hope that speedy action in the matter will be
taken by the Societies, &c., interested.
