New  York  Medical  Independent  is  the  name  of  a  new  weekly  medical 
Journal,  c  immenoing  May  4,  186  J, — 16  pages  in  each  number,  issuing 
in  our  sister  city.  The  special  Editor  is  not  announced,  but  the  Editorial 
labors  are  referred  to  "  The  New  Yoik  Medical  Literary  Association,"  and 
it  is  published  by  T.  B.  Harrison  &  Co.,  447  Broome  Street,  New  York. 
It  claims  to  have  a  "  Pharmaceutic  il  department"  under  the  charge  of  a 
competent  Editor.  We  like  to  see  a  tangible  Editor  or  Editors  to  a  jour- 
nal, yet  it  dues  not  necessarily  follow  that  anonymous  labor  is  not  well 
done.  As  regards  the  Pharmaceutical  department,  there  is  ample  room 
for  its  active  employment,  and  we  hope  tu  see  it  teem  with  valuable  hints 
and  comments  ou  legitimate  pharmaceutical  topics.

Two  numbers  of  the  above  journal  have  been  received;  it  appears  to  be 
more  political  than  medical  in  its  character.

years  past  is  without  contributions  from  his  pea.  Rjse  was  in  private
