The second part of the lectures will treat of the collec- 
tion and desiccation of some drugs, and their selection and 
preservation generally as a duty of the apothecary, and of 
the preparation of those remedies which do not fairly come 
within the influence of chemical action; comprehending 
the powders, pulps, extracts, tinctures, distilled waters, vo- 
latile oils, infusions, etc., as well as that extensive but hete- 
rogeneous list of medicines which are obtained by mixing, 
as compound powders, confections, pills, troches, cerates, 
and ointments, and other external remedies. In conduct-

as thorough an insight into the preparation of medicines, 
as comports with the time afforded r including those which

be kept ready prepared in the shop. 
The third portion of the course will relate to the prepara- 
tion of those chemical remedies, which come within the 
scope of the apothecary's laboratory, and which may be 
prepared by himself when desirable ; including many me- 
tallic, saline, and organic substances, the ethereal and am- 
moniacal products, without reference however to their 
systematic chemical relations, and it will conclude with 
some general observations on the duties of the pharmaceutist, 
bearing especially upon extemporaneous, and toxicological 
pharmacy.
