SECRETARY'S OFFICE, j HARRISBURG, June 22, 1857. } Pcnnsylvanit, s; I do certify that the above and foregoing is a true and correct copy ol the "Yeas" and "Naya" taken on the resolution proposing amendments to lite Constitution of the Com monwealth, as the same appears on (he Jour nals of the two Houses of the General As sembly of this Commonwealth for the session ol 1857. f| R , Witness my hand and the seal of the <■ " '■* said office, (his twenty-second day of June, A.

CONSUMPTION, AND ALL JISEABES 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 mailer, allays tint cough, causes a free and easy ex pectoration, heals the lungs, pur lies the blood, imparlH renewed vitality to the nervous sys tem, giving that tone and energy so indis pensable lor the restorative of health. To be able to stale confidently that Consumption is curable by inhalation, is to me a source of unalloyed pleasure. It is as much under the control ol medical treatment as any other formidable disease; ninety out of every hun dred eases can be cured in the first stages, and fifty per cent, in the second; but in the third stage it is impossible lo save more than five per cent., for the lungs are so cut up by the disease as to bid defianee lo medical skill. Even, however, in the last stages, in halation affords extraordinary relief to (he Fullering attending tills fearful scourge, which annually destroys ninety five thousand per sons in the United States alette; and a correct calculation shows that out of the present pop ulation of the earth, eighty millions ure des tined lo fill the consumptive's grave. Truly the quiver of dealli 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 oil" alike the brave, the beautiful, the graceful, and the gifted.— By the help of that Supreme Being, from whom rometli every good ami perlect gift, I ntn enabled to oiler to the nlllctod a perma- j nent and speedy cute in Consumption. The first canso of tubercles is from impure j blood, and the immediate etfect, produced by their disposition in the lungs, 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 ir.edij cines entering the cavities ol the lungs than from those administered through the stom ach; the patient will always find the longs free and the breathing easy after inhaling I remedies. True, inhalation is a local | remedy, nevertheless it acts constitutionally, and with more power and certainly than rent j odies administered by the stomach. To prove the povverlol and direct influence ol this 1 mode of administration, eliloroform inhaled ! will entirely destroy sensibility in a lew min | u'es, paralyzing the entire nervous system, so ! that a limb ma> be amputated without the | slightest pain; inhaling the ordinary burning : gas will destroy life ill a few hours. The inhalation of ammonia will ronse the i system when fainting or apparently dead.— j The odor ot many ol the medicines is per ; eeptible in the skin a few minutes after being i inhaled, and may be immediately detected jin the blood. A convincing proof of the ' constitutional effects ol inhalation, is the fact i that sickness is always produced by breath ' ing foul air. Is not this poeiiive evidence that proper remedies, carefully prepared and judiciously administered through the lungs, should produce the most happy results? Du i ring eighteen years' practice, many thous ' amis, suffering from diseases of the lungs ar.d throat, have been under my care, and 1 have affected many remarkable cures, even alter the sufferers had been pronounced in the last stages, which fully satisfies me that | consumption is no longer a latal disease.— 1 My treatment of consumption is original, and j loundcd on long experience and a thorough investigation. My perlect acquaintance with : the nature of tnbereles, &c., enaoles me to j distinguish rradily the various lorms of dis 1 ease that simulate consumption, and apply i ihe proper remedies rarely being mistaken even in a single case. This lamihariiy in connection with certain pathological and mi croscopic discoveries, enables rne lo relieve IIIP longs from the effects of contracted chest: to enlarge the chest, purity the blood, impart to it renewed vitality, giving energy and tone to ihe entire system.

THE recent trials at Read '"g have endorsed the enr *HT*~~i'irP^ —' of public opinion, and confirmed the verdict of more than 200 acci dental fires, proving conclusively that "Her ring's" is the only safe that will not burn. Extract from the Committee's Report on the Trial of Iron Sales at Reading: "On Ihe 26th of February all the members of the Committee met to witness the Safes and books and papers, (placed in them) and were perlectly sat isfteil that all was right.— The day following, the burning took place, under the superintendence of the Commiiiee. After a fair and impartial bnrninc for five hours, the Safe of Messrs. Evans & Watson was first opened, the Safe being on lite in i side, and the contents partially consumed, 1 while the contenis in the Sale of Messrs. Farrels & Herring were in good condition, j and no fire inside." Heading. Match 2, 1857. H. F. FELIX, ) (Signed) P. N. COLEMAN, > Com. A. H.

Three Boxes have cured the worst cases of Scrolula. Two boxes have cured Erysipelas. One box always cures the Jaundice. Tnee boxes are sure to cleanse the system from boils—often less than one does it. Two boxes have completely cured Ihe worst of ulcers on the lege. Small doses seldom fail to cure the Piles. Oue dose cures the headache arising from a foul stomach. Strong do-es often repeated expel every worm from the body. The should be given to children, Who ate always mora or less afflicted with thid scourge. As a gen'le Physic they have no equal. One box cures derangement ol the l.ivvr Hall a box cures a cold. They purity the blood, and thus strike at the foundation of every disease. As a dinner Pill there ii not their equal in the world. They are purely vegetable, and can do no harm, but do accomplish an unaccountable amount of good. Prepared by Dr. JAS. C. AYER, Praoiical and Analytical Chemist, (.owell, Mass.—and sold by K. P.
