SKCBKTAHY'S OFFICE, 1 HARRISDUKU, June 22, 1857. } Pcnnsytvanis, ss: I do certify that the above ar.d foregoing is a true and correct copy ol ike "Yeas" and "Nays" taken on tho resolution proposing amendments to the Constitution of llm Com monwealth, as the same appears on the Jour nals of the two Houses of die General As sembly ol this Common Wealth for the session of 1857. r , Witness my hand and the seal of tho ' ' said office, this twenty-second duy of June, A. D. 1857. A. G. CURTIN, Sccictuiy of the Commonwealth. COi\'£l!ifll'TlOlV AND ALL DISEASES OF THE LUNGS aid THTOAT are positively curable by inhalation, which conveys the remedies to the entities in the lungs through the air pas sages, and coming in direct contact witli the disease, neutralizes tho tubercular matter, allays the cough, causes a free and easy ex pfctomiion, heals the lungs, purifies the blood, imparls renewed vitality to tho nervous sys tem, giving that lone ami energy so indis pensable lor the restorative of health. To be able to slate confidently that Consumption is cnrable by inhalation, is to me a source of unalloyed pleasure. Jt is as much tinder the control ol medical treatment as any other formidable disease; ninety out of every hun dred cases can bo cured in the first stages, and fifty per cent, in the second;* hut iu the third stage it is impossible to save more ilian five per cent., for the lungs 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 to the suffering attending this fearful scourge, which annually destroys ninety five thousand per sons in the United States alone; and a correct calculation rhows 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 has no arrow so fatal as Consumption. Li all ages it has been the great enemy' o( life, for it spares neither age nor sex, but sweeps off alike the brave, the beautiful, the graceful, and the gifted.— By the help of that Supremo Being, from whom cometh every good and perfect gift, I am enabled to oiler to the afilcted a perma nent at.U speedy cure in Consumption. Tho first cause of tubercles is froru impure blood, and the immediate effect, produced by their disposition in the lungs, is to prevent the free admission ol air into the air cells, which causes a weakened vitality through the entire system. Then surely il is more rational to expect greater good from rr.edi] cities entering the cavities of the lungs than from those administered through the stom ach; tho patient will always find tho lungs free and the breathing easy after inhaling remedies. True, inhalation is a local remedy, nevertheless il acts constitutionally, and with more power and certainly than rem edies administered by the stomach. To prove the poweilul and direct influence ol this mode of administration, chloroform inhaled will entirely destroy sensibility in a few min utes, paraly zing the entire nervous system, so that a limb may be amputated without the shghtest pain ; inhaling tiie ordinary burning gas will destroy life ill a few hours. The inhalation of ammonia will rouse the system when tainting or apparently dead.— Tho odor ol many of tho medicines is per ceptible in the skin a few minutes after being inhaled, and may bo immediately detected iu the blood. A convincing proof of the constitutional efiects of inhalation, is the fact that sickness is always produced by breath ing foul atr. Is not this positive evidence that proper remedies, carelully prepared and judiciously administered through the lungs, should produce the most happy results? Du ring eighteen years' practice, many thous ands, suffering from diseases of tho lungs ar.d throat, have been under my care, and I have affected many remarkable cures, even after the sufferers had been pronounced in the last stages, which fully satisfies me that consumption is no longer a fatal disease.— My treatment of consumption is original, and founded on long experience and a thorough investigation. My perfect acquaintance with the nature of tubercles, Stc., enables me to distinguish readily tho various forms of dis i ease that simulate consumption, and apply the proper remedies rarely being mistaken even in a sinttle case. This familiarity in connection with certain pathological and mi croscopic discoveries, enables mc to relieve tilt! longs from the effects of contracted chests: to enlarge the chest, purify the blood, imparl to it renewed vitality, giving energy and tone to the entire system.

Extract from the Committee's Report on the Trial of Iron Safes at Reading: "On tho 26th of February all '.lie members of lire Committee met to witness the Safes and books and papers, (placed in them) and were perfectly satisfied that all was right.— The day following, the burning took place, under the superintendence of the Committee. After a fair and impartial burning for five hours, the Safe of Messrs. Evans fk Watson was first opened, the Safe being on fire in j side, and the contents partially consumed, 1 while tho contents in the Sale of Messrs. Furrels & Herring were in good condition, and no fire inside." Reading, March 2, 1857. H. F. FELIX, J (Signed) P. N. COLEMAN, > Coin. A. H.

The above Safes can be inspected at 34 Walnut Street, where the public can satisfy themselves of the great superiority of the "Herring's Patent Champion," over the de feated and uicd-up "inside Iron Door Sala mander." FARRELS & HERRING, 34 Walnut St., Philad'a. Only makers in this State of Herring's Patent Champion Safes. The attempt made by other parties to bol ster up the reputation of a Safe which has failed signally in accidental fires in Philadel phia, (Raiisleail Place,) by taking one out of an agent's store, [H. A. Lantz.] made dou ble thickness, (different from those they sell) to "burn up" or.e of Herring's, (half as thick) has met with its Hue reward. Herring's Safe could not be burnt, proving conclusively that the only reliable Safe now made is Herring's, of which over 15,000 are now in actuel use, and more than 200 have been tried by fire without u single loss.

Maryland, and a commissioner elected by! the people, who is sworn to superintend and , certify that everything connected with them : •s done in a strictly honorable manner, and that the interista of parties who reside at a distance are as well protected as if they themselves were present at the drawing.— Another fact which the managers call atten tion to, is, that all persons have a leg:I right to send orders for tickets to Maryland, as lotteries are legalized by special law in that stale. A lottery is drawn every day of the month. If no particular class is named, or ders are filled in the first drawing to take place ufier the communication comes to hgnd.

They don't help complaints, but they erne them. One box has cured dyspepsia. Three Boxes have cured the worst cases of Scrofula. Two boxes have cured Erysipelas. One box always cures the Jaundice. Tnee boxes arc sure to cleanse the system from boils—often less than one does n. Two boxes have completely cured the worst of ulcers on the legs. Small doses seldom tail to cure the Piles. One dose cures the headache arising from a foul stomach. Strong doses often repeated expel every worm from the body. The should be given to children, who are always mora or less afflicted with this scourge. As a gen<le Physic they have no equal. One box cures derangement ol the Liver Hall a box cures a cold. Ihey purily the blood, and thus strike Ri the foundation of every disease. As a dinner Pill there is not their equal ill the world. They are purely vegetable, snd can do no harm, but do accomplish an unaccountable amount of good. Prepared by Dr. JAS. C. AVER, Practical and Analytical Chemist, Lowell, Mass.—and sold by E. P.
