Other reasons might be added, but these are doomed siilHciont to satisfy all classes and persons in all condi tions of life. The above reasons are more particularly applicable to the immediate treatment on the first attack, btii will apply with equal force to cases which have been subject ed to or have become reduced, corresponding of course Vi the nature of the cam* at the time it is llrel dmiiiis timl. As this remedy gives so prompt, effectual and pornm m nt relief, in all ordinary cases, when used soon after the attack, persons ran scarcely realize that they had !h*cu really much sick, and very naturally conclude tin y wars not attacked with fever, and if ho, **lt was trifling -a little cold, which gave alarm—if could have been nothing of consequence—it would Imve passed off w ith out anything—-that medicine had noeffect.'’ The general impression on the sutyect of fever is such, that thoughfs not unlike the above follow the euro of a common case as naturally uh men think at all; and it is jjot until tlm individual lias witnessed many cases that lie (an fully realize the truth; and even then he may conclude them all very trifling cases, which would have readily yielded to any simple medicine, yet persons, though they have been thus successful in perhaps hundreds of cases, must expect that there will cases occur where there is sonic organic or local cause so groat as to require particular attention, or though success!ul in reducing tin; fever, it w ill again rise as the influence of the “ Fluid*’ passes off. as the exciting cause may still exist. It is to guard against disappointment in such cases that J have given and frequently refer to what I have called a ‘•synopsis.” Remark* on Fever* in General* On this subject I wish to he fully understood. Hy the term “fevers,” I comprehend all febrile affections to which the human frame is subject, including small pox and other eruptive fi*vers; hut ns they arise hy a great variety of causes, and in quite dissimilar constitutions and habits, they off coursi differ considerably in their development ami exhibit a variety of forms or types; yet all are distinguished hy the same general ehai Heter- Isties—that of undue excitement in the circulatory and nervous systems —inducing more or less unnatural fre quency in the pulse, sense of heat, dryness of the *kin. debility, Ac. To show that I am not wholly alone in the opinion I advance, I quote from the celebrated Prof. T. Watson, of King s College, London, whose work on the *• Princi ples and Practice of Physic.” is a textbook in many of nUr medical college*, and consequently standard authority. On page 834, hesays:—“Wo hear continually, both in and out of the profession, different species of fever spo ken off. By the public, Typhus Fever, Brain Fever, Bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever, Ac. And systematic writers are to the full as particular: Mucous Favor, Ataxic, Adynamic,, (bistro-Enteric, and ho forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, 1 uin persuaded that tht effect upon the mind of all this sub-division, is had and hurtful. It eticouragcri a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre scribe for a discuse according to its name. There is no lino of genuine distinction between continued fevers, that can he relied on. They run insensibly into each ntiifcr, even the most dissimilar of them, and are often traceable to the same cause.” The above isa great fact, one worthy of remembrance and I would impress oil your minds the folly of hunting up or troubling youtsell about a “ name;” if you have lover, treat it at once hh hereafter directed, and you null be well instead of any distinetcharacter being devel oped, so as to be properly named by the most scientific. This assertion is no hypothesis based 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 great variety of cir cumstances, seasons and climates. Bear this in mind, and treat at onco without regard to name , and rest assured you will soon be freed from ali dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers. But as cases may have lie conn* developed before the “ Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under some other treatment, I will describe as briefly ns possible the proper course to be pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though the “ Rules” and M Synopsis” will be amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon the sick. /totes important to hi olmrrcU in all rases in usinfl the ■Yf'r/cr/if f Electric Fluid.

The treatment should be commenced —which uiav iminediately follow any other without detriment—with a teaspoonful of “Fluid” every two horns, till the pulse becomes fuller or larger in volume, then to be once in six or eight hours till the fever entirely subside. Jn bad cases, from three to five grains each of quinine and capsicum (Cayenne pepper) or some tonic and stimu lant (sec auxiliaries) should be added to each dose. The bowel* should be kept gently open,, and small portions of some hejnttit should he given occasionally, even though the bowels should bo very loose.

As all of (lie- iliscaw .-i an offended with fever, which in fur t is the most prominent symptom, the treatment differs hue little from that of cijinuioii fevers. Remember never wail to team tlm “ no/nr,” whether it is oiiu or the other, or neither , as they all commence with freer , but treat il at once; govern the fever and there will he no trouble; there will b v, but little cjnption even in small pox.

I nevertheless Imldly make the assertion, that small po\, if treated as I direct, n'ifl In cut short ; altemfbd wit’ll but little erup tion ; little or no pitting, and that there is no nenssity of ils running it* ordinary course. On this I will stake not only my reputation, blit all I hat 1 bold most dear; besides, on flits mu I Jett. I have good authority; that of Prof. Watson, previously quoted. lie says, page *74: •• Von may abate the force of the eruptive fever, and keep down, H is believed, the number of the pustules by spline purge Ac.” Here is the admission that it may he done. I nave not only proven it may be, hut has berjt done in numerous cases Unit occurred on hoard ship. See the account appended. Give a teasjMKnful or more, according to the urgency of the case, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat the Fluid once in two hours if necessary, until the fevcruub sidcs—though one or two doses is generally sufficient; hut it should he given and repeated sufficiently to keep tin fever mnler control. When the throat is affected, any of the ordinary gurgles may he us.-d, ayd the surface bathed, as thought advisable.

It should be re peated as long as the. favor continues, as in other eases. The bowels of course should he attended to. In connection with this subject, j can not refraiir from making a few general remarks, which, if regarded hy the ladies, w ill save them much pain and suffering. It is to inform them of the happy (fleet of the Fluid in many of their trials, hi child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives the labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must be tried to be appreciated.— Painful, menstruation will be relieved at once hy a com mon dose and retiring. Bestlessnes.s, nervous irritability, or a cold taken at a dedicate time, is easily relieved by its use; in short, it is one ui the most convenient ami effectual remedies for many of the ills of females, if not the most so of any medicine know u. Its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability and iritability of the nervous as w ell as the circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and quiet the system so that one can sleep mituralh and healthy: hence its use in so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense the treat ment as much as possible, I give under this hoail general directions for all rases. As the Negative Electric fluid will change the condition called lever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name it may he or ought to be called, it should be given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot be ex pected to control all organic or local causes, which, when such exist, must be removed in order to effect a permanent cure. When siic.li indications occur ill any ciese. they should be appropriate means, and these soliuid be given w hile giving the “fluid,” anil in oetion with it, when occasion requires, as they will then more readily act. producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary time will then be lost. As the‘, fluid” alone will sub duo the fever. I cull all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) witli the first ilose, in soon after, and should it fail to operate in due time, repeat the dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something known to lie good for that complaint, thougli if caused by irritability, the “fluid” will Siam relieve that condition; if severe local pain or inflammation, apply some stimulating liniment, a mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of bitter herbs’ or, perhaps, cloths wet in cold water, to the part: if violent pain in the head, apply cold water, ice w ater, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe the feet in hot water: if tin* fever is very high, skin dry and hot, with greut suffering, sponge or hut he the whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature: “the saline wash,” vinegar and water or spirits and water, either will afford great relief and aid the medi cine in taking effect, after which there will lie no trou ble: if the iialicnt lias been reduced or is much prostra ted. give tonics and stimulants, particularly in low fevers, in absolute of fever or when indicated: nhso. during convalescence, when the patient has become re duced: it there is nausea and vomiting, that must he allayed before any medicine will remain on the stomach to douay goad; for this purpose 1 generally give some gentle enu-tic to cleanse the stomach: warm water, if given plentifully, will answer every purpose: when the* stomach luls settled, give the ** fluid and a cathartic if necessary; in short, treat all the prominent, symptoms as you would under any other eireumstunres, giving tin* “fluid” at the sumo time as directed and success will crown your efforts; indeed.you cannot realize it till von have seen, mid theu you will Ik* astonished at the with which you cun control all febrile excitement.
