HARRISBURG, May 16, 1833.

This is to certify that I have collated with, and corrected by the original rolls, the proof sheets of the printed copies of this edition of the laws and resolutions of the General Assembly, passed during the session ending on the ninth ultimo.

A few orthographical errors in the originals have been corrected in the pamphlet, and occasionally where it was obvious that words had been omitted and were necessary to complete the sense, they have been supplied-in every instance, however, marked in parenthesis, (thus.)
