SEcr.ETAnv's OFFICE, )
IfARMSIIUUG, June 22, 1857. J
Pennsyloanir, is:
I do certify thai Ihe above ar.d foregoing is
a true and correct copy ol Ike "Yeas" and
"Nays" taken on the resolution proposing
amendments lo the Constitution of the Com
monwealth, as the same appears on the Jour
nals of the two Houses of the General As
sembly of this Commontvualth for the session
of 1857.
r , Witness my hand and the seal of the
S J said office, this twenty-second day
of June, A. D. 1857.

Secictaiy of the Commonwealth.
CONSUMPTION,
AND ALL DISEASES OF THE LUNGS
aid THTOAT ate positively curable by
inhalation, which conveys the remedies to
the cavities ill lite lungs through the air pas
sages, and coming in direct contact with the
disease, neutralizes the tubercular matter,
allays the cough, causes a Iree and easy ex
pecto'otion, heals the lungs, purifies the blood,
imparts renewed vitality to the nervous sys
tem, giving that tone and energy so indis
pensable lor the restorative of health. To be
able to state confidently that Consumption is
curable by inhalation, is to me a source of
unalloyed pleasuro. It is us much under tho
control of medical tieuimcnt as any oilier
formidable disease; ninety out of every hun
dred rases can be cured in the first stages,
and filly per cent, ill the second; but in the
third stage it is impossible to save more than
five per cent., for the luugs are so cut up by
the disease as to bid defiance to medical
skill. Even, however, in the last stages, in
halation affords extraordinary relief lo the
suffering attending this fearful scourge, which
annually destroys ninety five thousand per
sons ill the United States alone; and a correct
calculation shows that out of the present pop
ulation of the earth, eighty millions are des
tined to fill the consumptive's grave.
Truly the quiver of death lias no arrow so I
fatal as Consumption. In all ages it lias been
the great enemy of life, for it spares neither
age nor sex, but sweeps ofr alike the brave,
the beautiful, the graceful, and tho gifted.—
|!y the help of that Supreme Being, from
whom cometh every good and perfect gift, I
atn enabled to ofler to the ndieted a perma
nent at.d speedy cure in Consumption. The
first cause ol tubercles is from impure
blood, atul the immediate effect, produced
by their disposition in the lnng, is to prevent
the free admission of air into the air cells,
which causes a weakened vitality through
the entire system. Then surely it is more
rational to expect greater good from rr.edij
cities entering the cavities of the lungs than
Irom those administered through the stom
ach; the patient will always find the lungs
free and the breathing easy after inhaling
remedies. True, inhalation is a local
remedy, nevertheless it acts constitutionally,
and with more power and certainty than rem
edies aduiinisleted by the stomach. To prove
the powetlul and direct influence ol this
:-tode of administration, chloroform inhaled
| will entirely destroy sensibility in a lew mitt
| ntes, paralyzing the entire nervous system, so
that a litnb ma> be amputated without the
i stightest pain; inhaling the ordinary burning
gas will destroy life in a lew hours.
The inhalation of ammonia will rouse the
system when tainting or apparently dead.—
The odor of many ol the medicines is per
ceptible in the skin a few minutes after being
inhaled, and may be immediately delected
in the blood. A convincing proof of the
constitutional efleels ol inhalation, is the fact
that sickness is always produced by breath
ing foul air. Is not litis positive evidence
that proper remedies, carefully prepared and
judiciously administered through the lungs,
should produce the most happy results? Ou
ting eighteen years' practice, many thous
ands, suffering from diseases of the lungs
and throat, have been under my care, and 1
have affected many remarkable ettres, even
alter the sufferers had been prononneed in
the last stages, which fully satisfies me that
consumption is no longer n iatul disease.—
My treatment of consumption is original, and
founded on long experience and a thorough
investigation. My perfect acquaintance with
the nature of tubercles, &c , enables nte to
I distinguish readily the various forms of dis-
I case that simulate consumption, and apply
the proper remedies rarely being mistaken
even in a single case. This "familiarity in
connection with certain pathological and mi
ctoscopic discoveries, enables me to relieve
the lungs from the effects ol couiracled chests;
to enlarge the chest, purify the blood, impart
to it renewed vitality, giving energy and tone
to the entire system.

TONICS YI'OA'T I>.
fiMIEY never did do more than give lempo
-®- rary relief and they never will, li is be
cause lliey don't touch the errusc of the dis
ease. The cause of all ague and hillious dis
eases is the atmospheric poison called Mias
ma or Malaria. Neutralize this poison by
its
NJITURJIL JINTID 0 TE,
and all diseases caused by it disappears at
once. Rhodes' Fever and Ague Cure is this
Antidote to Malaria, and moreover it is a
perfectly harmless medicine. The certificate
of the celebrated chemist, J. 11. Chilton, of
Now York, to this eflect, is attached to every
bottle ; therefore if it does no good it cue do
110 harm.
This is more than can be said of Quinine,
Arsenic, or any tonic in existence, us their
use is ruinous to the constitution and brings
on DUMB AGUE, which never allows a per
son to feel perfectly well for a single moment.
In illustiation of these truths I annex some
extracts from a letter just received from a
l'hysician :
Georgetown, Ohio, March 17, '56.
JAS. A. RHODES, Esq.— Dear Sir: Yours of
2d inst. is at hand. The Cure arrived late
last year and the difficulty in getting any one
to try it was greatly increased from the fact
that a remedy had been introduced which
was growing in favor with the public, as be
ing better lhan using Quinine, —not knowing
1 presume that the remedy they needed to
escape taking Quinine, contained the DRUG
ITSELF!
This remedy, (known as "Smith's Tonic,")
would invariably BREAK an ague, but it did
not CURE it, and it would often return with
renewed vigor. The one circumstance I
deemed in your favor, if I could institute a
lest comparison between it and your CUKE.
The lollowing is the result:
Three persons look your "Cure," all of
which were cases of "Quotidian Intermit
tent Fever," of many weeks standing. They
had tried Quinine, and other rosnedies,occa
sionally missing a chill, but it was, (as in all
such cases,; slowly wearing them out, and
laying the foundation of other and severer
maladies. I did succeed in effecting a radi
cal cure of all three of these cases with your
remedy, and they have not had a chill since.
In all three of these cases the "Smith's Ton
ic" had been used, and would, as before sta
ted, break the chill, but after a period or two
had elapsed it would return.
I think there will be no difficulty now in
giving to your "Cure" the vantage ground of
any other remedy now in use here. &c. &c.
WILLIAM BUCKNER, M. D.
RHODES' FEVER and AGUE CURE, or
Antidote to Malaria, the only harmless reme
dv in exis'.euce, is equally certain as a PRE
VENTIVE, as a "CURE." Take it when
yon feel the chill coming on, and you will
never have a single one

f ° PHI L"A DELPHIA MEDIC A L HOUSE-
Estnblished 20 years tgo by Dr. KINKftLIN,
corner of Third and Union streets, between
Spruce and Pine, Philadelphia, Pa.
INVALIDS
Are apprised that Dr. KINKEUN confines
his practice to a particular branch of medi
cine, which engages his individual attention.
He cautions tlio unlottunale against the a
buse of mercury; thousand# are annually
mercurialized out ol life. Recent affections
are piomptly extinguished.
TWENTY YEARS'EXPERIENCE
In the treatment of a class of diseases hith
erto neglected and imperfectly understood,
has enabled Dr. KINKELIN, Author of a
work on Sell Preservaiion, to prove hat nine
tenths of the causes of nervous debility, lo
cal and constitutional weakness, mental and
physical suffering, are traceable to certain
habits, forming the most secret yet deadly
and latnl springs of domestic misery and
premature mortality.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE,
There is an evil habit sometimes indulged
in by boys, in solitude, and which, if not re
formed in due time, not only begets serious
obstacles to matrimonial happiness,but gives
rise to a series of protracted, insidious, and
devastating afflictions. Few ol those who
give way to this pernicious practice are a
ware of the consequences, until they find
the nervous system shattered, feel strange
and unaccountable feelings, and vague fears
in the mind.
The unfortunate thus affected becomes fee
ble, is unable to labor with accustomed vig
or, or to apply his mind In study; his step is
lardy and weak, he is dull, irresolute, and
engages in his sport with less energy than
usual.
If be emancirate himself before the prac
tice has done its worst, and enter matrimony,
his marriage is unfruitful, and his sense tells
him that this is caused by his early follies.—
These are considerations which should awa
ken the attention of those similarly situated.
marriage
Requires the fulfillment of several conditions
in order that it may be really the cause oi
mutual happiness. Could the veil which
covers the origin of domestic wretchedness
be raised, and its true source itl every in
stance disclosed —in how many could it be
traced to physical disqualifications and their
attendant disappointments! Apply then while
it is yet time, in order to have your unstrung
and relaxed organization rebraced, revivified
and strengthened.
REMEMBER,
He who places himself under Dr. Kinkelin's
treatment may religiously confide in his hon
or as a genteman, and rely upon the assur
ance, that the secrets of Dr. K's patients will
never be disclosed.
Young man—let no false modesty deter
you from making your case Known to one

befriend you.

the people, who is sworn to superintend and
certify that everything connected with them
i. done in a strictly honorable manner, and
that the interists of parlies who reside at a
distance are as well protected as if they
themselves were present at the drawing.—
Another fact whieh the managers call atten
tion to, is, that all persons have a legjl right
to send orders for tickets to Maryland, at
lotteries are legalized by special law in that
state. A lottery is drawn every day of the
month. If no particular ciass is named, or
ders are filled in the first drawing to take
place after the communication comes to
itsnd. The prices of tickets vary from Si
