The basis upon which Beaume formed his scale was very un fortunately chosen, and gave rise, at an early period, to changes that have completely modified even the theory of his instrument he obtained the zero for his scale for light liquids, or pese esprit, by immersion in water containing ten per cent. Of salt in solution, and the point to which it sunk in pure water he made divid ing the stem into like intervals he obtained the &c., the intermediate degrees by subdivision. The hydrometer for heavy liquids of pese acide was differently adjusted. Water gave and the point to which it sunk in a solution containing fifteen per cent. Of salt, be marked as the interval doubled gave the the next the and so on. Now it is evident that if an error is made in obtaining the first interval, it becomes multiplied in ex tending the scale, and even with the greatest care it would be im possible to obtain two instruments graduated precisely alike; the only reliable plan is to subdivide points obtained at the extremes of the scale, and this has been the practice with the makers since an early period.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Journal of Pharmacy, Vol. 29 In the London Journal of Pharmacy, vol. iii, page ICO, will be found an article, by Dr. Alexander Ure, upon the South American bark called the Malambo or Matias bark, a short extract of which will be found in the appendix to the U. S. Dispensatory, page 1849. Dr. Ure states in his paper, that Malambo or Matias bark is the product of a tree in Colombia, S. A., and that it was placed in his hands by Hugh Houston, Esq., which gentleman received it from Dr. Mackay, who communicated, two papers respecting it to the British Association, and mentions having procured from it by distillation two oils, one lighter than water, of a specific gravity 0-949; the other denser, of a specific gravity 1-028. He further obtained a brown, bitter extractive substance. Dr. Mackny remarked, that it had been successfully used in intermittent fever, in convalescence from continued fever, in hemicrania, dyspepsia, and a variety of chronic ailments, where tonics and stimulants were indicated; and that as an adjunct to diuretic remedies, it had been found eminently useful. Dr. Ure describes the Malambo or Matias bark to be three or four lines in thickness, brittle, though somewhat fibrous; emitting when fresh bruised an aromatic flavor, not unlike that of calamus; color of a brown hue, covered with an ash-colored tuberculous epiderm, and possessing a bitter pungent taste. With water it forms an agreeable bitter infusion; with alcohol, a powerful bitter tincture. Ether extracts from it volatile oil and resin. Heated along with hydrate of potash, free ammonia is disengaged, indicating the presence of an azotized principle. It is without astringency. It appears to coincide, as suggested to me b)T M. Guibourt, both in regard to physical and sensible properties, with Malambo, the Indian name for the bark of a tree which grows in New Granada, and which is held in high esteem among the natives as a febrifuge and stomachic. Malambo bark was analysed by M. Cadet Gassicourt, about twenty-eight years ago (Journ. de Pharmacies tom. ii, p. 372); subsequently by M. Vauquelin, who ascertained the presence of three distinct substances, namely: 1. An aromatic volatile oil. 2. A very bitter resin.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Journal of Pharmacy, Vol. 37: Published by Authority of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy The writer, having observed the solution of citrate of bismuth, obtained by the addition of ammonia, to have an acid reaction, and also that an excess of that alkali occasioned a precipitate of oxide of bismuth, inferred the existence of a compound salt of bismuth and ammonia; this was subsequently confirmed. The following formulas, suggested by theory and numerous experiments, were finally adopted; Bismuthi Citras. Take of Subcarbonate of Bismuth a troyounce; Citrate of Potassa a troyounce and 120 grains; Nitric Acid a troyounce and a half; Distilled water a sufficient quantity. Dissolve the subcarbonate of bismuth in the nitric acid, and, when effervescence has ceased, dilute the solution with a fluid-ounce and a half of distilled water, gradually added. Dissolve the citrate of potassa in two pints of distilled water, and to this liquid add slowly, with constant stirring, the acid solution of bismuth. Permit the mixture to stand for several hours; then pour it on a moistened paper filter, and, when the liquid has nearly ceased to pass, cover the surface of the precipitate with distilled water. Repeat this operation until the washings no longer contain nitric acid. Allow the magma to drain, and dry it on bibulous paper, with a gentle heat. Bismuthi et Ammoni Citras. Take of Citrate of Bismuth, in powder, a convenient quantity; Stronger Water of Ammonia, Distilled Water, each, a sufficient quantity. Rub the citrate of bismuth with sufficient distilled water to reduce it to a uniform pasty consistence, and add, cautiously, with constant trituration, stronger water of ammonia, until a solution is obtained, observing to avoid an excess of ammonia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Journal of Pharmacy, Vol. 15 The later official process of the new British Pharmacop ia is perhaps even more objectionable; first; from the excessive use of hydrochloric acid; second, from the use of coarse powder; third, from the excessive use of rectified spirit; fourth, from directing the product to be dried in a stove; and fifth, from a want of definite detail, and a peculiar involved and inverted style, which requires analysis in order to be understood, and is then neither definite nor clear. These criticisms upon the only two officinal formulas for this substance were based upon a general experience in its preparation on a large scale, and in order to give them force and applicability on the scale of the Pharmacop ias, a number of experiments were carefully made, the most important results of which may be summed up as follows. The first series proved that a given lot of about 200 pounds of the root contained accurately 4.1 per cent. of the resin, when carefully and thoroughly exhausted. The second series proved that exhaustion was always difficult and generally imperfect with a coarse powder; and that the finer the powder, the more easy, the more perfect, and consequently the more economical was the exhaustion.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Journal of Pharmacy, Vol. 2: April, 1846 It is much to be desired, that the next edition of the Pharmacopoeia may be national 1n detail as well as in name; that its provisions may be sufficiently comprehensive to embrace the well grounded pharmaceutical preferences of different sections, when these are not incompatible with that unity of design and scientific propriety, which should be marked features of a work issuing from so dignified, and learned a body, as it is presumed the convention of 1850 will be. In order to accomplish this, some means must be resorted to, to enable the revisors to appreciate the opinions ofall sections of the Union.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Journal of Pharmacy, Vol. 67: Published by Authority of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy In the meantime the business on Market Street became prosperous, and in January, 1826, Samuel F. Troth, a younger brother of Henry, purchased the interests of Henry's brother-in-law, and thus the brothers became associated in business. As an illustration of his energy and enterprise, in 1835 he built the first five-story store on Market Street; this was regarded at the time as a very advanced step; but Mr. George W. Carpenter, at the northeast corner of Eighth and Market Streets, not to be outdone by a business rival, added two stories to his four-story building, and thus secured the lead in elevation. This incident furnishes a glimpse of the competition amongst druggists more than half a century ago. Henry Troth's activity was not limited, however, to the demands made upon him by the college and drug business; he had a great fondness for literature, and in 1813 he became associated with Joseph Cooperthwaite, Benjamin M. Hollinshead, Joseph A. Needles, Peter Thompson, Edward Haydock, Samuel Stackhouse, Warwick P. Miller, Thomas Yardley, Watson Jenks, and James Hutchinson, who organized the Philadelphia Literary Association. This became one of the leading societies of its kind, embracing within its membership many of the prominent citizens of Philadelphia, and was an active organization for over thirty years. Henry Troth was a member of the Orthodox branch of the Society of Friends, and philanthropy and the cause of the oppressed had in him an able champion, for we find him interested in a number of organizations, and for thirteen years he was treasurer of the Pennsylvania Society for the Abolition of Slavery. In addition to this, he served as one of the managers of the Colonization Society, the Children's Asylum, the Almshouse, and the Provident Society. Through the active period of his life he was one of the Guardians of the Poor, of Philadelphia, a Trustee of Girard College, and one of the Board of Managers of the House of Refuge, from the first year of its organization. The education of the young was always a prominent interest with him; he was one of the organizers of the Apprentices' Library, which still continues its useful work in the community. In the higher field of intellectual activity he was known as a valuable member in the Executive Board of the Philadelphia Museum and Franklin Institute.
