American  Pharmaceutical  Association. — As  the  approaching  meeting 
of  the  Association  will  occur  before  our  next  issue,  we  again  call  attention 
to  the  President's  notice  of  invitation,  hoping  that  the  attendance  will  be 
large.  The  time  fixed  on,  we  are  informed,  does  not  suit  our  Southern  and 
Western  brethren,  yet  we  hope  some  of  them  will  make  a  sacrifice  and 
attend  ;  after  which  they  can  refresh  themselves  by  a  few  days  among  the 
White  Mountains,  or  the  Catskills,  on  their  return.
