• IlmiarkM on Fevers in General*
mi this subject 1 wish to he fully understood. fly tie*
term “fevers.’ 1 comprehend all febrile affecti,ns t<*
which the human frame is subject, including small pox
ind other eruptive fevers; hut as they arise hy a great
variety of causes, and in quite dissimilar constitutions
and hahil, they f eourse differ considerably in their
development, and exhibit a variety of forms m type-:
yut all uredistinguished hy the same general eliara. tei
i-ttcri that ol undue excitement in the circulatory and
nervous *y.terns—inducing more or less unnatural fic
piency in the pulse, sense of heat, dryness of the •‘kin,
debility, Ac.
To show iliat 1 am not wholly alone in the opinion I
advance. I quote from the eelchrafcd i’rof. ‘l'. Watson.
I King s College, London, whoso work on tin •• Prim i
pies and Practice of Physic” is a textbook in many of
oui medical colleges, and consequently sUxndarda till writ a.
<ui page S:U, lie says:—“We hear continually, both in
aud out of the profession, different s|ecics of fever spo
sen of. Hy tin* public, Typhus Fever, llraiu Fever,
Ulllous Fever, I’utrid Fevor, Low Fever, .Nervous Fever,
A. \id systematic writers are to the full as particular:
Nlueon* Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Gastro-Mntcric, and
ru forth. Now', admitting that fever shows itself under
Y&riou forms, 1 aui persuaded that the effect upon the
mind of all thin siilmHvision, is had and hurtful. It
i iicoijritgoK a disposition, already 100 prevalent, to pre
ribo for a disease according to its mmt. There is no
line of genuiue distinction between continued levers,
that can he. relied on. They run insensibly into each
other, even the most dissimilar of them, and are often
huccahle to the HiiUie cause.”
The above is a great tket, one worthy of remembrance
Mud I would iinjn’t su on your minds the folly of hunting
op or troubling yourself about a •* name;” if you have
lever, treat it at. once us hereafter directed, and you
iOill />♦- u'<ll instead of any distinctcliaractcr being devel

I bis assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula
tions or > i-jons of mind, but on experience at the hed
-ide ol the sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands of cases
(by myself ami others) under a great variety of cir
. unistances, seasons and ( limates. Hear this in mind,

neglect, or under some other treatment, I M ill describe

be lelt perfectly quiet: free from all excitement; should
not bo questioned as to their wants or feelings, nor
attempt to converse, read or take any exercise whatever,
till their <>h*w not and feelings, independent of all extra
neous influences, induce them to rise or speak; nor
should any conversation be allowed in their hearing, in
which they may fed more or less interested, hut bo left

Mb Fluids should be allowed, while giving it as
plentifully, and as long as the patient desires and no
longei they may consist of cold water, mucilaginous
dunks, lemonade, any siniplo decoctions, or teas, either
dd #i warm as part ies may prefer or patients desire,
dth. Should patients experience any oppression or
Uuilm * while in the lying posture, so as to occasion a
restlessness after the fever has passed off', or enough to
o co*i.*n them to speak of it, they should have a little
muu . toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade with a little
quit, ciugci. or some other stimulant ; or the face and

will ‘.ire immediate relief.

Synopsis.
To avoid constant repetition, and condense the treat
ment as much as possible, I give umler this head general
directious for all eases. As the Negative Klcctric Fluid
will change the condition culled lever, or subdue and
control it under all cireumstamcs, without legat'd to the
iiainr it may he or ought lo he called, ii should he given
wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot lie ex
pected to control all organic or local causes, which,
when such exist, must he removed in order to elfeet a
permanent cure.
W hen sueli indications occur in any ease, they .sliould
lie appropriate means, and these sohuhl In- given while
giving the Fluid,” and in connection with it, when
occasion rci|uii'cs, as they will then more readily act.,
producing more general elfeet, besides no unnecessary
lime will then he lost. As the •, Fluid ‘ alone will sub
due (lie fever, l call all else auxiliary treatmi'iit.
j If the howels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili
! aril's) with the first dose, or soon after, and sliould it
fail to operate in due time, repeat the dose; if attended
with dlaii'lnea, give something known to he good for
; that complaint, though if caused hy irritability, the
“Fluid” will soon relieve tliut eoiulit Ion; if severe local
! pain or iulhimmation, apply some stimulating liniment,
| s mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of hitter herbs.
or, perhaps, cloths wet in cold water, to the part; if
I violent pain in the head, apply cold water, ice water,
I if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe
I the feel in hot water; if tlie fever is very high, skin
; dry and hot. with great sulining, sponge or hutlie the
whole surface witli water at an agreeable temperature;
“the saline wash,” vinegar and water or spirits and
water, either will afford greut relief and aid the medi
cine in taking etl'eet, after which there will he no trou
ble; if the patient lias been reduced or is much prostra
ted. give tonics ami stimulants, particularly in low
fevers, in absence of fever or when indicated; also,
during convalescence, when Hie patient has become re
duced ; if there is nausea and vomiting, that must he
allayed Itofure any medicine will remain oil the stomach
to do any goad: for this purpose l generally give some
gentle emetic to cleanse the stomach; warm water, if
given plentifully, will answer every purpose: when the
stomach has settled, give the •• Fluid’ and a cathartic if
■ necessary; in short, treat all the prominent symptoms
| us yon would under any other circumstances, giving the
j •• Fluid” at the same time ns directed, ami success w ill
crown your elforts; indeed, you eannot realize it till you
have seen, and then you w ill he astonished at the ease
with which you can control all febrile excitement.
Auxiliaries.
I’arties nuiy feel at a loss to know what is meant hy
cathartics. Ac., as physicians are usually particular
about vvhal is used. 1 have found Ho sueli necessitv
wlien using the Fluid, and to he fully understood by
all. I will name a tew of the different articles oft fi
ciln’ I have referred to, viz:—
•a t litii*t ics.- Artieles that purge or opei'aie mi the
bowels, sueli as castor oil. salts, senna, any of the roots
or barks, ami many pills, amibiljous. Ar.: anything
known to he good for sueli purposes.
Ilc]>ultea.—Anything known to ml outlie live;
particularly, portal circulation ami socrolionn genernllv.
Any oft he artioles depended on hy the ditfemit schools
for this pm pose, will answer when used in connection
vvilli the “Fluid” or while the system is under its in
fluence. And one may choose ealoiiiel—another, blur
mass Hi third, poilophv llln—the fourth, mandrake
, root, and so on; each may take his choice and lie sue.
eessful.
Tollies. Articles tlmt give luiir or streiigtli, such
| as ijuinine v.irioits.liarks. roots and hitter herbs. Bone
set or tlioroiiglivvorf is one of the best used in fevers.
Ast i*l iig'4'ut s.-. Such as check tlie action of ;hy
i bowels, IjuiditnuniHiid other preparations of opium are
used; also, many mixtures, not properly a-triugents,
which have the elfeet.
Sll in il Inil t s,— Articles that raise or excite the
I system. I'apsieimi rCuyeune pepper) is one of thr best:
| ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac.. Il are alt more
or less stimulating. These are the only classes necessa
ry in tr. aliug fevers, though many “tilers are getierallv
usisl, tmi ihe Negative Klcctric Fluid is a bet'er •• dia
phoretic.’’ •• anodyne,” “diuretic.’’ •• relaxant ‘ and
•• sedatin'” than known in the nmliriu mtUiru.
I shall not tax the reader with a long list of proofs,
dopcmliiig mainly on the results of a trial, ami will
; only refer to one instance of success, that on the
Packetalltp Uucliesa D'Orlcans.
I w hich eannot he classed among ordinary I'evtilleates:
; We, the undersigned, certify to the’ following, viz—
-1 We took passage on the pnekelshtp Duchess d'Orlcuun,
t’apt llutton. then lying in the port of Havre. France',
and hound for New York. She sailed on the Pth of Au
gust. 1861, wlt II over a hundred souls on hoard, mostly
emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, the small
pox broke out among the emigrants, They were all
treated by tlie physician ill charge. Dr. N, W.'Seat. w itli
anew remedy of his own, which he calls Negative Hhv
tric Fluid, w ith which he seemed to have entire control
over the disease, arresting it in a few hours, and curing
in a very short time.
During the voyage, which lasted thirty-nine days,
there w ere about eighty eases of small pox, some fever,
Ac., and not a single death. All were cured with unu
sual promptness.
From what we saw during said passage, we are fully
convinced that the medicine used bv Dr. Scat on the oc
casion. iH'ssesst'S inestimable virtues. We never before
beard or lead of lehrile affections I'em g controlled witli
so much ease, promptness and certainty, or so little
trouble to tlio nurse. A crowded ship, a long passage,
small pox and fever on host'll, and nut ilulh: The
tact speaks for itself.

t,i( f with it, even iii tlie open air, and when taken imer
nally completely piii ilies the system affected hy it ol its
lianeni'i inlluence. and thus restores and preserves
health.
The remedy is believed to he entirely new, and un
known to any hut the proprietor, who distinctly claims
the following extraordinary results from its use :
It will instantly check the agin* in persons who have
suffered for any length of time, from one day to twenty
years, and hy continuing its use. according lo the direc
tions, a radical cure will he effected: the patient Contin
uing free Ironi the complaint tor ever: unless subsequent
exposure to malaria should inalo* its use again necessary.
In its operation upon the poison in Ihe 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 l>c*l>ilHy and ftight Sweats,
which so often follow the administration of other niede
l ines. The patient at once begins to reever appetite
and strength, and continues to improve until restored to
perfect health.
Hy its use Fever and Ague may he banished from
every family and class in the community; farmers, me
chanics, and all laboring people maybe 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 i’ often t<* them tin* most valuable part of the
1 year.
.Since tin* introduction of the ITIIK in every part of
; the l iiited States, its success lias been so complete and
unvarying as to have fully proved these assertions in
favor of its extraordinary merit.
When these declarations were made at the date ol its
in trod net.on. they seemed incredible to many, even of
Dm most candid minds, because all ihe resources cf
science hud 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. micli hs Arsenic., Quinine, Mercury, Falicine. &c.
The effects of these are sometimes worse than tin* disease
they subdue, and when siadi remedies fail, or give only
temporary relief, their poisonous effects .ire supefadded
to tin* poor sufferer’s Hist complaint.
(Mi this account ague sufferers should he particularly
careful about using any secret Fever and Ague remedies,
not withstanding the makers of them uniformly assert
lliev may he taken w ith perfect safety, even when it is
notoriously well known that their potency depends
solely upon destructive poisons.
Now, as a proof that tin* Remedy is not only valuable
mi account of its power to cure diseases, but that it is
i also
Worthy of Public, Confidence,
because of its
Singular and Entire Ilarmlessncgs,
The Sollowiug certificate from one of the most celebrated
cJicniists in tiic United States has been obtained, and a
copy of it is attached toeveiy bottle:
New York, June 11, 1555.
*1 have made a chemical exam illation of Rhodes’ Fever
and Ague Cure, or Antidote to Malaria, and have tested
! it for Arsenic, Mercury, Quinine and iSrryclininc, but
have not found a particle of either in it. nor have ] found
I any substance in it composition that would prove inju
! l ions to the constitution.
•JAMES It. CHILTON, M. I>., Chemist.”
It i a stubborn fact, therefore, that this Remedy is
destined not only to relieve the human family from
malarious diseases, Imt to do au equally good work by
j preventing the taking of other medicines which do harm.
The entire absence of any baneful ingredient makes
j 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 he taken in advance.
This is owing to the diseases being produced by one and
; the same 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
j lurking in their veins, to develop itself in a violent
! attack. Take the Cure as a preventive, am Iso destroy
the poison before it does harm.
Full directions and advice as to diet and habits of life
■ prepared by a distinguished Physician long resident in
a Rilious climate now accompany each bottle.
It will often be found necessary to precede this medi
cine by a mild cathartic or nutibiiious purgative. The
very best thing for general use is a moderate dose of
Castor Oil, the object of which is to cleanse the stomach
and free the biliary passages. Remember that where
this is necessary, or there is Costiveness, it mist jjktakkn
or the operation of the antidote will he seriously ob
i strutted.
Only Caution*—ln certain specified cases, your
; the contents of one or more bottles of the Cure into
shallow vessels, (dining plates,) and place them in
sleeping rooms; for the vapor rising from the medicine,
and also the air waited across, or circulated over the
dregs of it, alter the liquid is evaporated, w ill counteract
and vies troy, to a degieo commensurate with its expo
sure, the miasmata or poison contained in the apartment.
This mode of exhibiting the Cure should likewise he
resorted to when very young infants are exposed to
malarious situations.
The bottles in which this medicine is put up have the
words, ••Kmodks’ Fever and Ague Cure” blown in the
glass, and on the outside w rapper is the name of the
medicine, (the copyright of winch is secured) and the
signature of the proprietor. These precautions are
taken to prevent counterfeits and imitations.
‘fur. reliance for its success is entirely upon its
actual MERITS, wherever introduced and used. These
will he considered sufficient.

Evidence from a Clergyman.
Plymouth, Richland Cos., Ohio, Bept. 25, 1855.
Mr. J. A. Rhodes, —Dear Sir—l cheerfully testify to
the value of your Antidote to Malaria. One young lady
in the family of a clergyman here has been taking an
“AGUE BALSAM” for some months without any per
manent benefit—a few days since she got a bottle of
the Cure and has not had a chill since. A young man
also used tlie same Balsam some time without relief
until he got a bottle of your Cure. Ho far it works like
Ia charm. Yours truly,
Rev. A. 0. DUBOIS.

Your Ague Cure has overcome all prejudices by its

who has been fully cured by only one bottle, and de
sired me to recommend it to everybody. I shall do all I
can in its sale. ‘ AV. A. HAYLEB.
If any body desires further evidences, they will find
it in every bottle of tlie CURE, which is being intro
: dui'ed as rapidly as possible into every town anil village
in tlie l uited States, Canadas, Ac. ‘The eminent chem
ist. hr* J- R.Chilton, of New York, certifies to its per
ieet innocence. It is therefore optional witli all to have
the Fever and Ague or not. just as they please.
I can also say that a great many of my largest custo
mers are those who ft year ago were reluctant even to
take tlie Cure on commission. They thought its great
claims and pretensions could not he realised. Now they
endorse them all, and it will lie noticed tlmt tin- letters
ot which I publish su h immense quantities are always

fill any newspaper, and prove the tact of a greater suc
