J Pennsylvani i, s; 1 do certify that the above ar.d foregoing is a true and correct copy ol the "Yeas" and "Nays" taken on the resolution proposing amendments to the Constitution of the Com monwealth, as the same apposes on the Jour nals of the two Houses of the General As sembly of this Common wealth for the session of 1857. r , Witness my hand and the seal of the - " J said office, this twenty-second day of Juno, A. D. 1857. A. G. CURTIN, Sccictary of the Commonwealth. CONSUMPTION, AND ALL DISEASES OF THE LUNGS aid THTOAT ute positively curable by inhalation, which conveys the remedies lo ' the cavities in the lungs through the air pas sages, and coming in diroct contact with the disease, neutralizes the tubercular mailer, ullays the cough, causes a free and easy ex pecto'ution, heals the lungs, purifies the blood, imparts renewed vitality to the nervous sys tem, giving that lone and energy so indis pensable lor the restorative of health. To be able to slnlo confidently that Consumption is curable by inhalation, is to rnc a source of unalloyed pleasure. It is as tnnch under the control of medical treatment us any other formidable disease; ninety out of every hun dred cases can be cured in the first stages, and fifty pet cent, in the second; but in the third stage it is impossible lo save more than five per cent., for the lungs me o cut up by the disease us to bid defiance lo medical skill. Even, however, in the lost stages, in halation affords extraordinary relief lo the suffering attending this fearful scourge, which annually destroys ninety fivo thousand per sons in the United Stales alone; nnd a correct calculation shows that out of the present pop ulation of the earth, eighty millions are de tinpd lo fill the consumptive's grave. | Truly Ihe quiver of death lias no arrow so filial as Consumption. In ull ages it has been ' thb great onetny of life, for it spares neither age nor sex. but sweeps ofr alike the brave, ! the beautiful, the graceful, and the gifted.— j ; liy tho help of that Supreme Being, from . I whom romelli every good and perfect gift, I j j atn enabled to ofler to tho alflcted a permit- j 1 nent at.d speedy cure in Consumption. The ' first cause of tubercles is from impure i ' Idood. and the immediate effect, produced I I by their disposition in the lungs, is to prevent ! the free admission of air into the air cells, i which causes a weakened vitality through j the entire system. Then surely it is more I rational to expeel greater good from tr.cdij i cities outetiiig tho cavities of the lungs than ! Irom those administered through the stoin- I aclr, the patient will always find the lungs j (roe and the breathing easy after inhaling ! remedies. True, inhalation is a local j remedy, nevertheless it acts constitutionally, : and with more power and certainty than retn ! etlies administered by the stomach. To prove ! the powerful and direct influence ol this mode ol administration, chloroform inhaled will entirely destroy sensibility in a lew mitt ' ntes, paralyzing the entire nervous system, so 1 that a hmb may be amputated without the ■ s'ighlesi pain; inhaling the ordinary burning i gas will destroy life in a few hours. I * The inhalation of ammonia will rouse the ' system when fainting or apparently dead.— The odor of many ol the medicines is per ' eeptible in the skin a few minutes after being inhaled, and may be immediately detected iin the Wood. A convincing proof of the ; constitutional efiecls of inhalation, is the fact ' that sickness is always produced by breath ' ing foul air. Is not this positive evidence ' that proper remedies, carelully prepared and judiciously administered through the lungs, ! should produce the most happy tesults? Pit i ring eighteen years' practice, many thous -1 amis, suffering from diseases of the lungs ar.d throat, have been under my care, and I i have alfected many remarkable cures, even ' after the sufferers had been pronounced in the last stagc, which fully satisfies me that ' consumption is no longer a latal disease.— ; My treatment of consumption is original, and founded on long experience and a thorough ; investigation. My perfect acquaintance with ttie nature of tubercles, &c., enables me lo distinguish readily the various forms of dis I ease that simulate consumption, and apply the proper remedies rarely being mistaken ; even in a single case. This familiarity ill connection with certain pathological am l mi croscopic discoveries, enables mc to relieve the longs from the effects of contracted chests; to eidarge the chest, purity the blood, impart to it renewed vitality, giving energy and tone to the entire system.

HERRING'S S3 dEv OP LSI 8 THE ACKNOWLEDGED THE recent trials at Read ing have endorsed the cur rent of publio opinion, and confirmed the verdict of more than 200 acci dental fires, proving conclusively that "Her ring's" it the only safe that will not burn. Extract from the Committee's Report on the Trial of Iron Sales at Reading: "On the 26th of February all the members of the 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. Alter a fair and impartial burning for five hours, the Safe of Messrs. Evans & Watson was first opened, the Safe being on fire in side, and the contents partially consumed, while the contents in the Sale of Messrs. Fsrrels & Herring were in good condition, and no fire inside." Reading, March 2, 1857. H F FELIX 1 (Signed) P. N. COLEMAN, > Com. A. H. PEACOCK. ) And endorsed by over 50 of the best men of Reading.

Heiring's Sale could not be burnt, proving conclusively lhal 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 a single loss.

They don't kelp complaints, but they tuie 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. Thee boxes are sure to cleanse the system from boils—often less than one does it. Two boxes have completely cured the worst of ulcers on the legs. Small doses seldom fail to cure the Piles. One dose cures the headache arising f/om a foul stomach. Strong doses often repeated expel every worm from the body. The should be given to children, who are always more or less afflioled 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. They purity the blood, and thus strike at the foundation o( every disease. As a dinner Pill there is not their equal In 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.
