PHARMACEUTICAL MEETING. 
Wednesday, March 3rd, 1869. 
MR. H. S. EVANS, VICE-PRESIDENT, IN THE CHAIR. 
Mr. Hanbury drew attention to a specimen of black wax which had been 
received from Madras. It was sent by a gentleman who, having observed a 
note read some time ago by Mr. Reynolds, of Leeds, at a meeting of the British 
Pharmaceutical Conference, on a blackish-green insect wax, thought that article 
was probably identical with the black wax of the Indian bazaars, of which the 
specimen before them was a sample. It appeared that this Iudian black wax 
was only common beeswax made from old and dirty comb. He (Mr. H.) did 
not think it was identical with the article described by Mr. Reynolds. 
Dr. Attfield had found that there was a difference in the melting-point of 
the two articles. 
The Chairman called on Mr. Wood to make some observations on 
SULPHUROUS ACID. 
Mr. Wood said he had not intended to make any special communication on 
the subject, but simply, if the opportunity offered during the discussion follow¬ 
ing the paper about to be read, which treated of a kindred matter, to say a 
word or two on Mr. Umney’s communication of last month. He added :—I 
find in that paper that the author referred to a previous article of mine in the 
4 Pharmaceutical Journal,’ in which it is stated, that sulphurous acid of the B.P. 
1867, “ is of the same strength and prepared in the same manner ” as the acid 
of the B.P. 1864. Mr. Umney implies that this passage is not strictly correct,
