J Pennsylvanit, se; • i do certify that the above ir.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 appears on Ihe Jour nals of the two Houses of the General As sembly of ibis Commonwealth for tbe session of 1857. r , Witness my hand and the seal of the - ' 'J said office, this twenty-second day of Juue, A. D. 1857. A. G. CURTIN, Sccietaiy of the Commonwealth. CONSUMPTION, AND ALL DISEASES OF THE LUNGS aid THTOAT ate positively curable by inhalation, which conveys the remedies to the cavities in the lungs through the air pas sages, and coming in direct contact with the disease, neutralizes the tubercular matter, allays the cough, causes a free and easy ex pccio'elion, 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 slate confidently that Consumption is curable by inhalation, is to me a source of unalloyed pleasure. It is as much under the control of medical treatment as any other formidable disease; ninety out of every hun dred rases can be cured in the first stages, and fifty por cent, in the second; but in the third stage it is impossible to save more than 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 acourge, which annually destroys ninety five thousand per sons in 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 Ihe quiver of death has no arrow so fatal as Consumption, In all ages it has been the great enemy of life, for it spares neither age nor sex, but sweeps off alike the brave, the beautiful, Ihe graceful, and the gifted.— By the help of that Supreme Being, from whom cometh every good and perfect gift, I am enabled to ofler to the afilcted a perma nent ar.d speedy cure in Consumption. The first canse of tubercles is from impure blood, and the immediate effect, produced by their disposition in the lungs, is to prevent the free admission of air into ihe air cells, which causes a weakened vitality through the entire system. Then surely it is more rational to expect greater good from nr.edi] cities entering the cavities of the Inngs than from those administered through the stom.- ach; Ihe 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 administered by the stomach. To prove the poweitul and direct ioflnenco of this mode of administration, chloroform inhaled will entirely destroy sensibility in a lew min utes, paralyzing the entile nervous system, so that a limb may be amputated without the s'tghtest pain; inhaling the ordinary burning gas will destroy life in a few hours. The inhalation of ammonia will ronse the system when fainting or apparently dead.— The odor of many of the medicines is per ceptible in the skin a few minutes after being inhaled, and may be immediately detected in the blood. A convincing proof of the constitutional effects ol inhalation, is the fact that sickness is always produced by breath ing foul air. Is not this positive evidence that proper remedies, carefully prepared and judiciously administered through the lungs, should produce the most happy resul#? Du ring eighteen years' practice, many thous ands, suffering from diseases of ttie lungs and throat, have been under my care, and I have affected many remarkable cures, even alter the sufferers had been pronounced in the last stage', which fully satisfies me that consumption is no longer a latal disease.— My treatment of consumption is original, and founded on lung experience and a thorough investigation. My perlect acquaintance with the nature of tubercles, &0., enables me to distinguish readily tbe various forms of dis ease 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 croscopic discoveries, enables mi to relieve the long* from the effects of contracted cheats; to enlarge Ihe cheat, purify the blood, impart to it renewed vitality, giving energy and lone to the entire system.

Report of the Committee appointed to euperintend the burning of the Iron Safee at Reading, Feb. 27th, 1857. READING, March 4th. The undersigned, member! ef the Commit tee, do respectfully report, that we saw ihe two Safe! originally agreed upon by Farrela & Herring and Evans & Watson, placed side I by side in a furnace, viz: The Safe in use by the Paymaster of the Philadelphia and Read ing Railroad Company, in /lis office at Read ing, manufactured by Farrela & Herring, and the Safe in uae by H. A. Lantz, in his store, manufactured by Evans & Watson, and put in books and papers precisely alike. The lire was started at 8} o'clock, A. M., and kept up until four cords of green hickory, two cords dry oak and half chestnut top wood were entirely consumed, the whole under the superintendence of the subscribers, mem bers ot the Committee. The Safes were then cooled off with water, after which they were opened, agd the books and papers takin out by th 6 Committee and sent to H. A. Lantz's store for public examination, after they were first examined and marked by the Commit tee. The books and pspers taken from the Safe manufactured by Evans & Watson were but slightly affected by the intense heat, while those taken from the Safe manufac tured bv Farrels & Herring were, in our judg ment, damaged fully fifteen per cent, more than those taken from Evans & Watson's Safe.

HERRING'S S3 sACis QB g THE ACKNOWLEDGED THE recent trials at Read ing have endorsed the enr rent of public opinion, and Confirmed the verdict of more than 200 acci dental fires, proving conclusively thai "Her ring's" is the only safe that will not burn. Extrsct from the Committee's Report on the Trial of Iron Safes at Reading: "On the 26th of February all the members of the Committee met to witness the Safes and books and papers, (placed in tbem) and were perfectly satisfied lhal all was right.—- The day following, the burning tnok place, under the superiniendence of the Committee. After a fair and impartial burning for five hours, the Safe of Messrs. Evans & Watson was first opened, the Safe being on fiie in side, and the contents partially consumed, while the contents in the Sale of Messrs. Farrela & Herring wete in good condition, and no fire inside." Reading, March 2, 1857. H. F. FELIX, 1 (Signed) P. N. COLEMAN, J Com. A. H.

A. Lantz.] made dou ble thickness, (different from those they sell) to "burn up" one of Herring's, (half as thick) has met with its Hue reward. Herring's Sate could not be burnt, proving conclusively that the only reliable Safe now made is Herring's, of which over 15,000 are now in aciuel use, and more than 200 have been tried by fire without a single loss.
