Section V-57: Subjects and titles - Revival or amendment by reference - Extent of invalidity.

  Every act of the Legislature shall embrace but one subject,
which shall be clearly expressed in its title, except general
appropriation bills, general revenue bills, and bills adopting a
code, digest, or revision of statutes; and no law shall be
revived, amended, or the provisions thereof extended or
conferred, by reference to its title only; but so much thereof as
is revived, amended, extended, or conferred shall be re-enacted
and published at length:  Provided, That if any subject be
embraced in any act contrary to the provisions of this section,
such act shall be void only as to so much of the law as may not
be expressed in the title thereof.
