which is essentially practical, rather than disciplinary, preparatory or cultural, the Faculty of the Albany College of Pharmacy cordially approve this new undertaking and wish it abundant and lasting success. Amo-ng the fanciful conceits of the alchemists which have survived in our latter-day scientihc terminology was this,- that the volatile part evolved, as by heat, from material substances, was the essence or spirit of such substance. All bodies, says Bacon, Uhave spirits and pneumatical parts within them. Such terms as spirit of wine survive, and it was in retorts or alembfcs that the separation of the ethereal part was effected. The vessel is obsolete, but the name alembic 'l remains, and it has passed into literature typifying that which refines and frees the rarer and essential from the grosser and material substance. And so we think the name chosen for this publication to be suggestive of the true aim of all education, which is the separation of the higher from the lower, the exaltation of the spirit, and a rehning that is real and substantial, and not specious or delusive like an external polish, which, being superficial, merely may deceive for a time, but cannot long endure.
