Abstract
THE annual meeting of the British Medical Association is anticipated not only as an occasion for the association and communion of medical men of all classes, but as an opportunity for, so to speak, taking stock of the progress of medical science and practice during the past year. Prom the choice of a locality near the metropolis, the meeting this year has been very successful, both as to the numbers attending it and the character of the papers read. From the tone of many of the addresses, indeed, it is easily perceived how intimately chemistry, physiology, biology, and even physics are becoming associated with medicine, and how, as a result of this, the special medical departments of pharmacology and therapeutics, pathology and hygiene, are being modified by scientific methods of investigation.
