PHARMACEUTICAL SOCIETY OF GREAT BRITAIN. 301 
before referred to, bearing the title of "Pharmaceutical Trans- 
actions," of which we have the first four numbers before us. 
It is edited by Jacob Bell, an active and able member of the 
Council, and published for the present by him, on his own re- 
sponsibility, as an experiment; although it is, no doubt, to be 
considered as the organ of the Society, and will be officially 
adopted as such, when the Institution becomes fully organized. 
It contains the proceedings of the Society, the papers read at 
the Scientific meetings, pharmaceutic and general scientific 
intelligence, &c. We observed in it extracts from our own 
Journal, and in return present in the present number selec- 
tions from it, and as its only collaborateur, in the same lan- 
guage, we heartily bid it welcome. Such a journal has long 
been wanted in England ; we trust that it will be efficiently 
and cordially sustained.
