SECRETARY'S OFFICE. ) HARRISBURO, June 22, 1857. j Pennsylvania, st; I do certify that the above and foregoing is a true and correct copy ol thq "Yeas" and "Nays" taken on the resolution proposing amendments to the Constitution of the Com monwealth, a the same appears on the Jour nals of the two Houses of the General As sembly of this Commonwealth for the session ol 1857. r i Witness my hand and the seal of the J said office, this twenty-second day of Juno, A. D. 1857. A. G. CURTIN, Sect clary of the Commonwealth. CONSUMPTION, AND ALL JISKASKS OF THE LUNGS aid THTOAT nto positively curable by inhalation, which conveys Ihe remedies to the cawliea in the lungs through the nir pas sages, and coming in direct contact with the disease, neutralizes Ihe tubercular matter, allays the cough, causes a freo and easy ox pecio'otion, heals the lungs, purities the blood, imparls renewed vitality lo the nervous sys tem, giving that lone and energy so indis pensable lor the restorative ol health. To be able lo stale confidently that Consumption is co rah In by inhalation, is to me a source of unalloyed pleasure. It is as much under the control ol medical tteatment as any other formidable disease: ninety out of every hun dred cases can be cured in the first stages, and ftlty per cent, in the second; but ill the third stage it is impossible to save more than five per cent., for the luttgs are so cut up by the dispase as to bid defiance to medical skill. Even, however, in the lost stages, in halation affords extraordinary rebel lo the suffering attending this featfnl scourge, which ' annually destroys ninety Jive thousand por- j sons in the United States alone; and a correct ! calculation shows that out of the present pop- I illation ol the earth, eighty millions are des tined to till the consumptive's grave. Truly the quiver of death has no arrow so ( fatnl as Consumption. In all ages it has been the great enemy" ol life, lor it spares neither a"e nor sex. but sweeps oil'alike the brave, ! the beautiful, the graceful, anil tho gifted.— ; By the Itelg of that Supreme Being, (rom j who in cometli every good and perfect gift, I j am enabled to oiler to the atllcted a pcrma- ! netit at.d speedy cure in Consumption. The : first cause ot tubercles is trom impure' blood, and tbe immediate effect, produced j bv their disposition in the lungs, is to pievenl , the free admission ol 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 trodiV cities entering the cavities ol the lungs ilitw I Irom those administered through the siom- ! nth; the patient will always find the lungs ! free and the breathing easy after inhaling I remedies. True, inhalation is a local remedy, nevertheless it acts constitutionally, \ and with more power and certainty than rem edies administered by lite stomach. To prove the power til I and direct it-.liiieiicc oi this mode ol administration, chloroform inhaled will entirely destroy sensibility in s low mill- I n'es. paralyzuig Ihe entire nervous system, so that a limb mat be amputated without tho ! s'ightt-si pain; inhaling the ordinary burning \ gas will destroy Ide in a lew hours, i The inhalation ol ammonia will rouse tho ' system when fainting or apparently dead.— ■ ihe odor ot many ot the medicines is per \ re pi i bio in the skin a few minutes after being i inhaled, anil may be immediately detected |in the blood. A convincing proof of the | constitutional cfiects of inhalation, is the fact I that sickness is always produced by breath . ing tout air. Is not this positive evidence that proper remedies, carelolly prepared and : judiciously administered through the lungs, j should produce the most happy results? Du ; ring eighteen years' practice, many llions ; anils, sufiertng from diseases of the lungs ' at.d throat, have been under my care, and 1 have aliened many remarkable rnres. even | alter the sutferers had been pronounced in 1 'he last stages, which fully satisfies me that i consumption is no longer a lat.il disease. — ' My treatment cf consumption is or ginal, and ' touniled on long experience and a thorough investigation. My perlect acquaintance with the nature ol tubercles. &e., enables me to I distinguish readily the various forms of dis ease thai simulate consumption, and apply the proper remedies rarely being mistaken j even in a single case. This familiarity in connection with certain pathological and mi*' cioscnpic discoveries, enables me to relieve j the longs from the effects of contracted chests: : tc enlarge the chest, purify the blood, impart i to it renewed vitality, giving energy and tone j to the entire system.

After a fair nnd impartial burning for five hours, the Safe of Messrs.
