Abstract: Illinois State Medical Society.-In the present number of the Examiner, will be found a full record of the proceedings of our State Medical Society, at its recent meeting in Spring field.There was a larger number of members in attendance than at any previous meeting for eight or ten years.It was characterized by harmony, strict attention to appropriate busi ness, and a spirit of active investigation.The reports and ^papers presented were more numerous and interesting than usual, but the time allowed for their investigation was too short.For the first time in several years, the Treasury was reported as not in debt, and money enough was received to ensure an early publication of the Transactions for 1867.We hope those members who presented reports or papers, which were referred to the Committee on Publication, and retained them in their own hands, will forward them to the Secretary without delay.By so doing, they will greatly facilitate an early publication.Medical Education.-Weare gratified to observe that the proposed revision of our system of medical education, as adopted by the Convention of Medical College Delegates, recently held at Cincinnati, is receiving the cordial sanction of nearly all our exchanges.The editor of the Boston Medical and Surgical Journal, in a recent number, strongly endorses the action of the convention, but expresses regret that the "Elements of the Natural Sciences" should have been stricken out of the Section
