It is to guard against disappointment in such cases that I have given and frequently refer to what I have called a “ synopsis.” lie murks on Fevers in General- On this subject 1 wish to he fully understood. By the term “fevers,” I comprehend all febrile affections to which the human frame Is subject, including small pox md other eruptive fevers; hut as they arise by a great variety of causes, and in quite dissimilar constitutions and habits, they of course differ considerably in their development mol exhibit a variety of forms or types; yet all ate distinguished by the same general charm trr istics—that ol undue excitement in the circulatory ami nervous systems—inducing more or less unnatural fre quency in tin- pulse, sense of 10-at, dryness of the skill, debility, Ac. To show that I am not wholly alone in the opinion I advance, 1 quote from the celebrated ITof. T. Watson. ■it King's College, London, whose work on the “ Prim i pies aud Practice Os I’liysic” is a textbook in many of -air medical colleges, and consequently itandardauthariti/. Du page x; 14, lie says ; —“We hear continually. |>ot li in and out of the profession, different species of fever spo ken of. By the public, Typhus fever. Brain fever, Itilious fever, fuli'id fever, Low fever, Nervous fever, .vo. And systematic writers are to tile full as particular: Mucous fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, (iastro-Elitcric, and so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms. I am persuaded that the effect upon tile uiind of all this sub-division, is had and hurtful. It encourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre scribe for a disease according to its name. There is no line of genuine distinction between continued fevers, that can be relied on. They run insensibly into each other, oven the most dissimilar of them, and are often traceable to the same cause.” The above is a great fuel, one worthy of remembrance and I would impress on your minds the folly of hunting up or troubling yomsolf about a “ tuwie;” if you have fever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and you mill be well instead of any distiiic.tcluiriu.-ter being devel oped, go as to he properly named by the most scientific. This assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula tions or visions of mind, but 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, soaoons and climates. Bear this in mind, mid treat at once without regard to name, and rest assured you will soon lie freed from all dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers. Hut as cases may have lie come developed before the “Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under some other treatment, I will describe us briefly oh possible the proper course to lie pursued in all of the most prominent levers, though the “ Kuh-s” mol “Synopsis” will lie amply sufllclent for all those accustomed to attendance u;kui the sick.

As these fevers are all of one character. dilleriug mainly in degree, being all of a low grade, the pulse small and wiry, with a general great depression, there is no practical use in separating them—at least so far us my treatment is concerned.

Hestlessness, nervous irritability, ora wild taken uta delicate time, is easily relieved by its use; in short, it is one of the most convenient and efleetuai remedies for many of the ills of females, if not tin- most soofauy medicine know n. Its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability and iritahility of the nervous as well as the circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, but il will sooth and quiet tlio system so that one can sleep naturally ami healthy; lienee its use in so many cases. Synopsis- To avoid constant repetition, and condense the treat ment as much as possible, 1 give under this head general directions for all cases. As the Negative Klectric Fluid will change the condition called lever, or subdue and control it under all rireunistnnces, without regard to the name it may he or ought to lie called, it should ia- given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot lie ex pected to control all organic or local causes, which, whan such exist, must la* removed in order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any ease, they should be appropriate means, ami these solmld be given while giving the “ Fluid,” ami in connection witii it, when occasion requires, as they will thou more readily act, producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary time will then be lost. As the-, Fluid” alone will sub due tlie lever, I call nil else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels are costive, given ca'tliartic (see auxili aries) witii the first dose, or soon after, and should it fail to operate in due time, repeat the dose; if attended with diarrim-a, give something known to be good for that compla'nt, though if caused by irritability, the “Fluid” will soon relieve that condition ; if severe local pain or iulhimniation. apply some stimulating liniment, a mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of hitter herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet in cold water, to the part; it violent pain in the head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe the feet in lint water; if tlie fever is dry high, skin dry and hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe, the whole surface with witter at an agreeable temperature; “tlie saline wash,” vinegar and water or spirits and water, either will afford great relief and aid the medi cine in taking effect, alter which there will be no trou ble; if the patient lias been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics and stimulants, particularly in lew fevers, in absence of fever or when indicated; also, during loinulesceiiee, when tlie patient Ims become re duced; il there is nausea and vomiting, that must be allayed before any medicine will remain’ mi the stomach to do any good : for this puriiosc 1 generally give some gentle emetic to cleanse the stomach; warm water, if given plentifully, will answer every purpose; when the stomach lias settled, give the - Fluid” and a cathartic if necessary ; in short, treat till the prominent, symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giving the “ Fluid” at tlie same time as directed, and success'will crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till veu Imve seen, aud then you will lie astonished at tile ease with which you can control all febrile excitement.

The great variety of symptoms and forms of disease is owing principally to difference in age. sex, constitution and habits of tlie sufferers; but us the cause is tin* same, they will all equally yield to a remedy that is competent to overcome of remove that cause. iiy the laws of Nature, every principle has its opposite, and for every disease, or cause of disease, there is a re agent, or in other words a specific remedy. AIL Malaria, whether arising from Marshes, Stagnant water, decompo sition of* animal and vegetable matter, or even newly cleared lands, is (he same in character and effect; is a poi son floating lit the atmosphere, causing disease to all who breathe it. In accordance with those unalterable laws governing tin* unerring affinity subsisting between op posites, there h in tlie preparation before us. offered to the public. The Natural Antidote to Malaria, which neutralizes the poison whenever it conus in con tact with it . even in the open air. and when taken inter nally completely purities the system affected by it of its baneful mllueii'f. and thus restores and preserves health. The remedy is believed to be entirely new, and un known to any but the proprietor, who distinctly claims the following extraordinary results from its use: It will instantly cheek the ague in persons who have suite ml tor any length of time, from one day to twenty years, and by continuing its use. according to the direc tions, a radical cure will be elfected: the patient contin uing free from the complaint for ever; unless subsequent exposure to malaria should make its use again necessary. In its operation upon the poison in the system, it will immediately relieve all the distressing symptoms of bil ious or ague diseases, and when the disease is cured, it will entirely prevent the accession of General Debility and Night Sweats, which so often follow the administration of other mede tines. The patient at once begins to reever appetite and strength, and continues to improve until restored to perfect health. By its use Fever and Ague may be banished from every family and class in the community; farmers, me chanics, and all laboring people may be using this arti cle as a Preventive, And pursue their respective avocations in perfect safety from ague or ‘bilious attacks during the sickly season, which is often to them tlie most valuable part of tlie ynu*. .... Since flic introduction ot the Cl ILK in every part ol the United States, its success has been so complete and unvarying as to have fully proved these assertions in favor of its extraordinary merit. When those declarations were made, at the date of its introduction, they seemed incredible to many, even of the most candid minds, because all tlie resources of 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 or empirical, have been limited to poisonous or destructive drugs, such as Arsenic. Quinine, Mercury, Salicine, Ac. The effects of these arc sometimes worse than the disease they subdue, ami when such remedies fail, or give only temporary relief, their poisonous effects .ire superadded to the poor sufferer’s tirst complaint. On this account ague sufferers should he 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. Now, as a proof that the Kemedy is not only valuable on account of its power to cure diseases,’ but that it is also Worthy of Public Confidence.

CHILTON, M. 1).. Chemist.” It i> a stubborn fact, therefore, that this Remedy is destined not only to relieve the human family from malarious diseases, but to do an equally good work l*y preventing the taking of other medicines which dohavm. The entire absence of 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 as the one under consideration, if the medicine be takcu in advance. This is owing to the diseases being produced by one an I the sumo cause, and therefore all, both residents and 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 Cun* ns a preventive, and so destroy the poison before it does harm. Full directions and advice as to diet and habits of life prepared by n 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 autibilious purgative. The very best thing for general use is a moderate dose of Castor Oil. the object of w hich is to cleuu.se the stomach and free the biliary passages.

The eminent chem | ist. Dr. J. It. Chilton, of New York, certifies to its per ! feet innocence. It is therefore optional with all to have | the Fever aud Ague or not, just as they please. 1 can also say that a great many of my largest custo ■ mens are those who a year ago were reluctant even to I take the Cure on counuissiou. They thought its great | claims and pretensions could not be realised. Now they I endorse them all, audit will be noticed that the letters -of which 1 publish su li immense quantities are always new and late dates —altogether they- would more than ; till any newspaper, and prove the fact of a greater suc cess and sale than over attended any other Ague Remedy. Tlie CioxvningGlory of the Cure is its HARMLESS CHARACTER, which allows its free use as a preventive. Thus protected by using a bottle or two during the warm and sickly sea sons, not a man woman or child in the United States would ever have a single attack of F’ever and Ague.
