To show that I am not wholly alone in the opinion I advance. 1 quote from the celebrated Prof. T.

Now, admitting that fever allows itself under various forms, I am persuaded that the effect upon the mind of all this sub-division, is bad and hurtful. It encourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre scribe for a disease according to Its mime. There is m lin of genuine distinction between continued fevers that can be relied on. They run insensibly into each ot.ur, even the in .at dissimilar of them, and are often traceable to the same cause.” The above Is a great fact, one worthy of rumembrano and J would imprest on your minds the folly of hunting up or troubling you self about a “n tint;” if you hav< fever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and yuL null be wi ll usteiul of any distinctchaructcr being devel oped, so us to be properly named by the most iscieutinc.

When the throat is affected, any of the ordinary gurgles may lie used, and the surface bathed, as thought advisable. In one cose, on the ship Duchess tfOrleans, the tongue and faucus were so much swollen that the patient could not swallow er speak, and lie was cured by dropping tho Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till lie could swallow, when il was given iu teaspoonful doses every hour, till all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of the throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment in about twelve hours by the Fluid alone. — Used to wet the throat frequently, it is doubtless the best gargle in all such canes. Puerperal or Childbed Fever. This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming malady to which the mother is liable, will yield to the Negative Electric Fluid with such readiness, as to scorn to be of little consequence. A single dose or two of a teaspoonful, almost invariably giving entire aud per manent relief; no alarm need lie entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should lie re peated as long as the fryer continues, as in other cases. The bowels of course should be attended to. In connection witli this subject, 1 cannot refrain from making u few general remarks, which, if regarded by the ladies, will save them much pain aud suffering. Jt. is to Inform them of the happy effect 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 lie tried to bo appreciated.— Painful menstruation will be relieved at once by a com mon dose audretiring. Restlessness, nervous irritability, ora cold taken at a delicate time, is easily relieved by its use; in short, it is one of the most convenient and effectual remedies for many of the ills of females, if not the most so of any medicine known. Its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability .mil iritability of the nervous as well as the circulatory. >t will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and (Uiet the system so that one can sleep naturally nnd healthy ; lienee its use in so many cases.

As the Negative rdectric Hunt will change the condition called lever, or subdue and ontrol it under all circumstances, without regard to the uunt it may be or ought to lie called, it should be gbeii wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot be ox ceded to control all organic or local causes, which when such exist, must be removed in order to effect a ceruiunent cure.

Tlic remedy is believed to be entirely new, and un known to any but tho proprietor, who distinctly claims the follow iug extraordinary results from its use: It will instantly check the ague in persons who have suffered fm- 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 effected; the patient contin uing free from tho complaint forever; unless subsequent exposure to malaria should niaka 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 Ocnei-nl D< l>iltty nnd Night Sweats, which so often follow the administration of other mode cines. 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 ho banished from every family and class in the community; farmers, me chanic-*. and nil laboring people may bo using this arti cle as a Prcvenliv e, And pursue their respective avocations iu perfect safety from ague or bilious attacks duriug tho sickly season, which is often to them the most valuable part of the year. Since the introduction of the CURE iu every part of the United States, its success has been so complete and unvarying us to have fully proved those assertions in favor of it m extraordinary merit. When these declarations were made, at the date of its introduot.ou, they seemed incredible to many, even of the most, candid minds, because all the resonrees 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 boon limited to poisonous or destructive drugs, such as Arsenic, Quinine, Mercury, Salioine, &c. Tho effects of these arc sometimes worse than the disease they subdue, and wheu such remedies fail, or give only temporary relief, their poisonous effects .ire siipcraddcd to the poor sufferer’s first complaint . On this account ague sufferers should ho particularly careful about using any secret Fever and Ague remedies, notwithstanding the makers of them uniformly assort they may lie taken with perfect safety, even when it is notoriously well known that their potency depends solely upon destructive poisons. Now, as a proof that tho Remedy is not only valuable) ou account of its power to cure diseases, but that it is also Worthy of Public Confidence, Because of its Singular and Entire Harmlcssncss, The ollowing certificate from otn of tho most celebrated chemists in the United States lias been obtained, and a copy of it is attached to evciy bottle: New YoiiK, Juno 11, 186a. “1 have made a chemical examination of Rhodes’ Fevet aud Ague Cure or Antidote to Malaria, and have tested it for Arsenic, Mercury, Quinine and Strychnine, but have not found a particle of either in it, nor have 1 found any substance in its composition that would prove inju rious to the constitution. “JAMES R. CHILTON, M. D., Chemist.” It i- a stubborn fact, therefore, that this Remedy is estined not only to re.ievo the human family from malarious diseases, but to do an equally good work by preventing the taking of other medicines which do harm. The entire absence of any baneful ingredient makes this Kerne ,y not more valuable ns a Cure, than it is as a preventive. No class of disease is so easily managed as the one under consideration, if the medicine lie taken in advance, fills is owing to the diseases being produced by one and the samo cause, and therefore all, both residents and travelers, should protect themselves by the timely use if this preventive, and not wait for t lie poison already miking in their veins, to develop itseli in a violent attack. Take tho Cure as a preventive, and so destroy tlie poison before it does harm. Full directions and advice ns to diet and habits of life prepared by a distinguished Physician long resident in a Bilious climate now accompany each bottle. It will often bo found necessary to precede this medi cine by a mild cathartic or antibilious purgative. The very best tiling for general use is a moderate dose of Castor Oil, tlie object of which is to c.eans the stomach and free tlie biliary passages. Remember that where this is necessary, or there is costiveness, it must be taken or the operation of tlie antidote will be seriously ob structed. Only Caution. —ln certain specified cases, ponr 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, nmt also the air wafted across, or circulated over the dregs of it, after the liquid is evaporated, will counteract aud .eslroy, to a degieo commensurate with its expo sure, Hie miasmata or poison contained in tlie apartment. This motto of exhibiting the Cure should likewise be resorted to when very young infants are exposed to malarious situations. The bottles in which this medicine is put up have tho words, “Rhodes’ Fever and Ague Cure” blown in the glass, and on the outside wrapper is the name of the medicine, (the copyright of which is secured) and the signature of the proprietor. These precautions are taken to prevent counterfeits and imitations. Till: RELIANCE FOR ITS SUCCESS IS ENTIRELY UPON ITS actual merits, wherever introduced nnd used.

The eminent chem ist. Dr. J. R. Chilton, ot New York, certifies to its per fect innocence. It is therefore optional with all to have tho Fever and Aguoor not, just as they please. I can also my that a great many of my largest custo mers are these who a year ago wore reluctant even to take tho Cut eon commission. They thought its great claims and pretensions could not be realised. Now they endorse then- a", and it will be noticed that the letters of which I publish su li immense quantities are always new and Into dates—altogether they would moro than till any newspaper, aud prove the fact of a greater suc cess and salt I han over attended any other Ague Remedy. , The Crowning Glory of the Cure is its HARMLESS CHARACTER, which allows its free use as a preventive. Thus protected by using a botti - or two during the warm and sickly sea sons. not a mmi woman or child in the United States would ever have a single attack of Fever and Ague, Bilious or Yellow lever, or any form of disease arising from the ati losphcric poison Malaria, to which the Cure is a perj tct antidote.
