Ilia to guard against disappointment in such eases that I have given mid frequently refer to what I have colled o “synopsis,'’ tic murks on Fevers in Uenerah On this subject I wish to be fully understood. Il.v the term “fevers,” I comprehend nil febrile ntfeetioiiH to which the human frame is subject, iiielmling snioll pox and other eruptive fryers; tint ns they arise by a great variety of causes, and in quite dissimilar constitutions and habits, they of course differ considerably in their development and exhibit a variety of forms or types: yet all are distinguished by the same general rlmrnetei-- isties—that ol undue excitement In tlio circulatory and nervous systems—lnducing more or less uuiiatiiriil fre quency In tin- pulse, sense of heat, dry ness of the skin, debility. Ar. To show that I am not wholly alone in the opinion I advance. I quote from tile colebcnfcd I’rol. T. Watson, of King's College, homloii, whose work on the •• I’rinei plea and Prnrticn of Physic'’ is a text hook in many of our medical colleges,undcouaequeiitly siardarti authnrily. tin page HIM, In-says:—“We hear continually, laitli in mid out of the profession, different species of fever spo ken of. By tlie public. Typhus Fover, Brain Fever. Itilious Fever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever, Ac. And systematic writers are to the full as particular: Mucous Fever, Ataxic. Adynamic,, tiastro-Knterie, and so forth. Now. admitting that fever shows itself under various forms. I am persuaded that the effect upon the mind of all this sub-division, is bad and hurtful. It eucouragns a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre scribe for a disease according to its name. There is ho line of genuine distinction between continued fevers, ibid can be relied on. They run insensibly into each other, even the most dissimilar of them, and are often I I necable to the same cause.” The above Is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance snd 1 would impress mi your minds the folly of binding op or troubling yourself about a “ name;” if you have fever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, mid you i "ill hr well instead of any distiiieteUarueter being devel oped, so as to he properly named by the most scientific. Tills assertion is no hypothesis bused on closet specula tions or visions of mind, hut on experience at the bed side of the sick, in hundreds, aye. thousands of cases (by myself and others) under a groat variety of cir cumstances, Hensons and climates. Bear tills in mind, and treat at mice without regard to name, and rest assured you will soon be freed from all dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers. Mot as cases may have be come developed before tlie “ Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under gome other treatment, I will describe as briefly us possible tlie plo|>ei’ course to lie pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though the “ Rules” and “ Synopsis” will lie amply sufficient for nil those accustomed to attendance upon the sick.

As these fevers are all of one character, differing mainly in degree, being nil of a low grade, the pulse •mall and wiry, with a general great depression, there is no practical use In separating them—at least so far as my treatment is concerned. In these low fevore, when lolly developed, a little patience will be required: still comparatively little, as they frequently run weeks under ihe common treatment, while with tin's but a few dsvs will l>e necessary at longest to establish a permanent convalescence. The treatment should be commenced—which may immediately follow any other without detriment—with a teaspoonful of “Fluid’’ every two hours, till the pulse becomes tullei or larger in volume, then to be continued once In six or eight hours till tin- fiver-ruth-elv subsides Tn bad cases, from three Pi five grains each of ‘/ninine and capsicum (Cayenne pepi*-r) or some tonic and stimu lant (see auxiliaries) should lie added to each dose.

A single dose or two of a teas|MXmful. almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need be entertained, as the Fluid will arrest It, in a short time. It should he re peated as long as the lover continues, as in other eases. Tin- bowels of course should he attended to. 11l connection with this subject, X cannot refrain from making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by tlie ladies, will save, them much pain and sniveling. II is to inform them of the happy cfl'ect of the Fluid in many of their trials. In child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives the labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must Is- tried to he appreciated. Painful menstruation vv ill Is- relieved ut once by a com mon dose and retiring, iiestlcssness,nervous irritability, or u cold taken at a delicate time, is easily relieved by its use: In short, It is one of the most convenient uud efloi tiiui remedies formally of the ills of females, if not the most so of any medicine known. Its effect is uniform, relaxing I lie whole system, removing all excitability ami irituhility of tlie nervous as well as the circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, hot it will sooth ami quiet the system so that one can sleep jiaiimdlv and healthy : hence its use ill so many eases, Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense tlio treat ment as much as possible, I give under this head general directions for all eases. As tlie Negative Kleetric Fluid will change tlie condition called fever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the twine it may he or ought to |ie called, it should he given wherever’ or whenever it exists; yet it cannot Ik- ex pected to control all organic or local causes, which, when such exist, must lie r.miovcd in order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any case, they should be appropriate means, and these sohuld be given while giving the Fluid,” and in connection with it. when occusiou requires, as theyw.il then more readily act. producing more general effect, besides no unnecessarv time will thou la 1 lost. As the ‘, Fluid” alone will sub due the fever, I call all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels are costive, given cathartic (sec auxili aries) vvitli the first dose, or soon after, and should it fail to operate in due time, repeat the dose: if attended with diarrlueu, give something known to lie good for that complaint, though if caused hy irritability, the “Fluid” will soon relieve that condition : if severe local pain or inflammation, apply some stimulating liniment a mustard plaster, a Idister, fomentations of hitter herbs! or, porhaps, cloths wet in cold water, to the part: ii’ violent pain in tlie head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and pat lie the feet in hot water; if tlie fever is very high, skin dry aud Imt. with great suffering, sponge or bathe the whole surface vvitli water at an agreeable temperature “the saline wash,” vinegar and water or spirits and water, either will a fiord great relief and aid the medi cine in taking effect, alter which there will la- no trou ble : if the patient lias been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics and stimulants, particularly in low fevers, in absence of fever or when indicated: also during convalescence, when the patient lias become in duced; it there is nausea and vomiting, that must be allayed before any medicine will remain on tin- stomach to do any good; for this purpose 1 generally give some gentle emetic to cleanse tin- stomach; warm water, if given plentifully, will answer every purpose; vvlion the Stomach lias settled, give the Fluid” and a cathartic if necessary; in short, treat all the prominent symptoms as y ou would under any other circumstaucea, g’iviii” the “Fluid” at the same time ns directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed,you cannot roaUze.it, till von have seen, and tln-u you will lio astonished at the ease with which you can control all febrile excitement Auxiliaries.
