PHILADELPHIA COLLEGE OF PHARMACY. ] S7 
To the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy. 
" The Publishing Committee respectfully report that the 
duties of their appointment have been attended to. The 
Editors, by additional exertion, issued five numbers within 
the year 1848, by which means the work has been made to 
date its commencement with the January number, and a 
fruitful cause of confusion removed. The proprietors of 
Carson's Medical Botany having offered to furnish litho- 
graph plates from that work, at a moderate price, the Jour- 
nal has been embellished with several of them accompany- 
ing articles on subjects of the materia medica. The second 
number of the twenty-first volume is now in progress, and 
will be issued about the usual time in the first week of 
April. The finances of the committee will be exhibited in 
the annexed statement of its accounts. All of which is 
submitted bv
