J.  Newport  Potts,  Rep.  M.  C.  P. 
Cincinnati  College  of  Pharmacy. — At  the  annual  meeting,  held  Jan.  13th, 
the  following  officers  were  elected  for  the  ensuing  year :  President,  J.  F. 
Judge ;  Recording  Secretary,  Jos.  N.  Feemster ;  Corresponding  Secretary,

Board  holding  over  are  Chas.  Faust,  Otto  Taxis,  John  G.  Fratz  and  A.  J. 
Tally. 
Reports  of  the  Secretary  and  Treasurer  were  read  and  adopted.  President 
J.  F.  Judge  delivered  a  short  address,  congratulating  the  College  on  its  suc- 
cess during  the  past  year,  the  increase  in  the  number  of  members  and  its  satisfac- 
tory financial  condition.  The  first  course  of  lectures  since  the  reorganization  of 
the  College  was  the  session  of  1871-72.  It  was  attended  by  32  students,  most  of 
whom  were  residents  of  this  city.  The  second  course,  session  of  1872-73,  fol- 
lowed, with  51  students,  a  fair  proportion  of  whom  came  from  a  distance,  many 
from  different  points  in  Ohio  ;  some  from  Illinois,  Indiana  and  West  Virginia, 
and  one  from  Canada.  Ten  students  of  this  course  received  the  degree  of 
"  Graduate  in  Pharmacy."  The  present  course  is  attended  by  70  students. 
The  increase  in  the  number  of  students  shows  that  the  College  is  in  a  very 
healthy  and  prosperous  condition.  There  are  six  lectures  each  week,  delivered 
by  gentlemen  of  long  and  practical  experience,  and  give  general  satisfaction 
to  the  class.  The  following  are  the  members  of  the  faculty  for  the  present 
year:  J.  F.  Judge,  M.D.,  Professor  of  Chemistry;  E.  S.  Wayne,  M.D.,  Pro- 
fessor of  Materia  Medica  and  Botany;  W.  B.  Chapman,  M.D.,  Professor  of 
Pharmacy.  The  bill  regulating  the  practice  of  pharmacy,  which  passed  the 
Legislature  last  spring,  has  been  promptly  complied  with ;  every  retail  druggist 
engaged  in  the  business  when  the  law  went  into  effect  has  been  registered,  and 
many  persons  desiring  to  engage  in  business  for  themselves  have  appeared  be- 
fore the  Examining  Board.  A  large  number  of  clerks  have  also  been  examined, 
most  of  whom  passed  very  creditably. 
A  large  number  of  donations  of  books,  chemicals,  etc.,  have  been  made  to 
.  the  College  during  the  past  year  ;  many  by  our  own  members  and  friends  of 
the  College  here,  and  quite  a  number  from  Philadelphia,  St.  Louis  and  other 
places;  and  though  our  friends  have  been  very  liberal,  there  still  is  room,  and 
we  hope  for  a  continuance  of  the  same.  Any  donations  to  the  library  or  cabi- 
net will  be  thankfully  received,  and  may  be  sent  at  our  expense,  per  express, 
addressed  to  any  of  the  officers  of  the  Association.
