Philadelphia  College  of  Pharmacy. — The  Committee  appointed  at  the 
quarterly  meeting  in  June  (see  page  374)  has  drafted  the  following  circular  letter, 
which  has  been  approved  by  the  officers,  and  was  sent  to  the  foreign  pharma- 
ceutical societies  in  compliance  with  the  resolution  adopted  by  the  College  : 
PHILADELPHIA  COLLEGE  OF  PHARxMACY, 
145  North  Tenth  Street,  Philadelphia,  U.  S.  A. 
7uly  187s. 
The  International  Exposition  which  will  be  held  in  this  city  in  1876,  will,  without  doubt,  attract  many 
Pharmacists,  Chemists  and  Druggists  from  different  parts  of  the  world.  Most  of  these  visitors  will 
probably  endeavor  to  be  present  at  the  23d  Annual  Meeting  of  the  American  Pharmaceutical  Association, 
which  will  convene  in  this  city  in  August  or  September,  1876. 
The  members  of  the  Philadelphia  College  of  Pharmacy  earnestly  desire  to  make  the  visit  of  their 
professional  brethren  on  these  occasions  agreeable,  and  to  facilitate  the  objects  of  their  visit  to  this  coun- 
try as  much  as  possible.  With  this  intent,  at  the  Quarterly  Meeting  of  the  College,  held  June  28th,  it 
was  resolved,  that  a  cordial  invitation  be  extended  to  the  members  of  your  honorable  society,  and  of  all 
kindred  societies  in  your  country,  to  make  the  College  Building  their  head-quarters  during  the  Interna- 
tional Exposition. 
It  is  intended  to  set  apart  a  room  to  be  used  or  reading  and  correspondence^  and  to  have  an  Actuary 
daily  in  attendance,  for  the  purpose  of  giving  all  needful  and  desirable  information  to  strangers.  It  will 
be  our  aim  to  give  information  to  our  visitors  regarding  hotels  and  boarding-houses  in  this  city,  to  procure 
for  them  tickets  of  admission  to  the  various  places  of  interest,  to  place  them  in  telegraphic  communica- 
tion with  all  parts  of  the  city  and  country,  to  receive  and  take  charge  of  letters,  to  give  information  re- 
garding travel  to  points  of  interest,  &c.,  finally,  to  make  our  visitors,  while  among  us,  feel  at  home. 
In  extending  to  your  society  this  invitation,  we  would  respectfully  ask  that  the  same  be  communicated 
to  the  kindred  societies  of  your  country. 
Hoping  many  will  give  us  the  pleasure  of  welcoming  them  to  our  city,  we  have  the  honor  to  remain. 
With  Fraternal  Greetings, 
(Signed)         CHAS.  BULLOCK,  Vice-President.

P.  N. — It  is  desirable  that  the  members  of  Pharmaceutical  and  kindred  societies  of  foreign  countries
