Its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability and iritability of the nervous as well as the circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, hut it will sooth and quiet the system so Unit one can sleep naturally and healthy : hence its use in so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, anil condense the treat ment as much as possible, 1 give under this head general directions for all Cases. As the Negative Electric Fluid will change the condition called fever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the mime it may be or ought to lx- called, it should he given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot tie ex pected to control all organic or local causes, which, when such exist, must be removed in order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any case, they should he appropriate means, and these sobuid be given while giving the “Fluid.” and in connection 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 sale due the fever, l call all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels are costive, give a cathartic (sec auxili aries) with tin- first dose, or soon after, and should it fail to operate ill due time, repeat the dose; if attended with diarrhu-a, give souiethiug known to be good for that complaint, though if caused by irrltabilitv, the “Fluid” will soon relieve that condition ; if severe local pain or intiammation. apply some stimulating liniment, a mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of bitter herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet ill cold water, to the part: ii’ violent pain iu the head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe the feet in hot water; if the fever is very high, skin dry and hot, with great, suffering, sponge or bathe the whole surface w ith water ut an agreeable temperature: “the saline wash,” vinegar anil water or spirits and water, either w ill afford great relief and aid the medi cine in taking effect, after which tliere will Ik- no trou - lily; if the patient Inis been reduced or is much prostra -1 ted, give tonic* and stimulants, particularly iu low [ fevers, in absence of fever or when indicated: also, during convalescence, when the patient has become re duced: if there is nausea mill vomiting.

When these declarations were made, at tin* date of its i introduction, they seemed incredible to many, even of ; the most candid minds, because all the resources of j science had been taxed in vain to subdue ague or bilious ! diseases; and what was still worse for ague sufferers, all their remedies or treatment, whether scientific r I empirical, have been limited to poisonous or destructive I drugs, such as Arsenic, Quinine, Mercury, Salicinc, Ac. The effects of these are sometimes worse than the disease they sulxhie, and w hen such remedies fell, or give only temporary relief, their poisonous effects .ire superiulded to the poor sufferer’s first complaint. On this account ague sufferers should be particularly careful about using any secret Fever and Ague remedies, notwithstanding the makers of them uniformly assert they may he taken with perfect safety, even when it is notoriously well known that their potency depends solely upon destructive poisons.

CIIILTON, M. D., Chemist.” It i>! a stubborn fact, there fore, that tliis Remedy is destined not only to relieve the human family from malarious diseases, but to do ail equally good work by preventing the taking of other medicines which do barm. The entire absence ol’ any baneful ingredient makes this Remedy not more valuable as a Cure, than it is as a preventive. No class of disease is so easily managed ns the one under consideration, if the medicine be taken in advance. This is owing to (he diseases being produced by one and the same cause, and therefore all, both residents ami travelers, should protect themselves by the timely use of this preventive, and not wait for the poison already lurking in their veins, to develop itself in a violent attack. Take the Cure as a preventive, and so destroy the poison before it does harm. Full directions and advice as to diet arid habits of life prepared by a distinguished Physician long resident in a bilious climate now accompany each bottle. It will often be found necessary to precede this medi cine by a mild cathartic or antibilions purgative. The very best thing for general use is a moderate dose of Castor Oil. the object of which is to cleanse (he stomach aud free the biliary passages. Remember that where this is necessary, or there is costiveness, it must iif. taken or the operation of the antidote will bo seriously ob structed. Only Caution* —In certain specified cases, pour the contents of one or more bottles of the Cure into shallow \esscls, (dining plates,) and place them iu sleeping rooms ; for the vapor rising from the medicine, and also the air waited across, or circulated over the dregs of it, after the liquid is evaporated, will counteract ami destroy, to u deg tee commensurate with its expo sure, the miasmata or poison contained in the apartment. This mode of exhibiting tho Cure should likewise lie resorted to when very young infants are exposed to malarious situations.

If any laxly desires further evidences, they will find it in every bottle of the CI'RK, which is being intro duced as rapidly as possible in‘o every town and village iu the I'nited States, Canadas. Ac. The eminent chem ist. Dr. J. R. Chilton, of New York, certifies to its per fect innocence. It is therefore optional with all to have the Fever ami Ague or not. just as they please. I can also say that a great many of niy largest ousts mers are those who a year ago were reluctant even to take the Cure on commission. They thought its great claims and pretensions couhl not be realised. Now they endorse them all. and it will be noticed that the letters of which I publish sit li immense quantities are always new and late dates—altogether they would more than fill any newspaper, and prove the fact of a greater suc cess and sale than ever attended any other Ague Remedy. The Crowning Glory of the Cure is its HARMLESS CIIAKACTKIL which allows its free use as a preventive. Thus protected by using a bottle or two during the warm and sickly sea sons, not s man woman or child iu the United .States would ever have a single attack of Fever and Acne, Bilious or Yellow Fever, or any form of disease arising from tin- atmospheric poison Malaria, to which tie- Cure is a )r/ie< antidote. It is also unequalled for quick and permanent effects as a Restorative, giving new life and strength to all whose constitutions have been shuttered or weakened by Ague or Bilious diseases, night sweats, languor and de bility or any kind of intemperance or dissipation.
