NEGATIVE ELECTRIC IfLUID, Prepared by N. W. Seat, 11. D. Keaaous why It should bn used instead of any other treat ment in all febrile affection* : tat—Economy of Time. —A# only one-seventh of the ordinary time is required to offset a cute. A tl.—Economy of Money.— A# it costs but one dollar. 3rd.—Economy of Feellngi—Ati it suves the suffering of a long sickness and the consoquont treat ment; the annoyance of taking nauseating doses of medicine, tlieir disagreeable onoratiou, and tbo pain of long continual, at; but little of the fluid being necessary, aud that pleasant in its effects. 4th. — Economy of Thought. —As when known, it will remove all dread and anxiety a. present existing, respecting febrile affections; particularly while s dear friend is nick, sth. Economy of Health. —As the system Is not reduced, and consequently racked; nor is the fever subject to be followed by chrome disease. 6th. — Economy of lulfe.—As the cure is effected before and without reducing tho patient, consequently removing, in a corresponding degree, all danger of a fatal termination. Other reasons might la> added, hut these arc deemed auttlcient to satisfy nil elusses aud persons in all condi tions of life. Tho above reasons are more particularly applicable to the immediate treatment on tho tlrst attack, hut will apply with equal force to cases which have been subject ed lo or have become reduced, corresponding of course to the nature of the case lit the time it is first adminis tered. As tills remedy gives so prompt, effectual aud perma nent relief, in all ordinary cases, when used soon af.cr the attack, persons can scarcely realize that they bail been . rally much siek, and very naturally conclude th y wer • not attacked with fever, aud if so, “it was trilling -a little cold, which gave alarm—it could have been nothing of consequence—lt would have passed off with out anything—that medicine had no effect.” The general impression on the subject of fever is such, that thoughts not unlike the above follow the cure of a common case as naturally as men think at all; and it is not un il the Individual has witnessed many casestlmt lie can fuhy realize the truth; ami even then he may conclude them hII very t illing cases, which would have readily yielded lo any simple medicine, yet persons, though they have been thus successful in perhaps hundreds of cas s, must expect that there will cnees occur wil l'd there is seme organic cr local causa so great rs to require particular attention ni though sue ■•■*# ui in reducing the fever, it will again ri<n as the influence of the “Fluid” pusses oft', as the exciting cruise limy sclll exist. It is te guard ngainst disappointment in stun ruses that 1 have given and frequent ly refer to what I have railed a “synopsis.” Remarks on Fevers lu General- On this subject 1 wish to he fully understood, iiy the term “fevers,” 1 comprehend uli febrile affections to which the human fl ame is subject, including smnli pox and other eruptive fevers; hut as they arise by a great variety of causes, aud in quite dissimilar constitutions aud hubiiu, tin y of course differ considerably In tlieir development and exhibit a variety of form# or types; yet all are distinguished by the saino general character istic* —that ol undue excitement in the circulatory aud nervous systems—inducing more or len unnatural fre quency ill the pulse, sense of heat, dryness of the skin, debility, Ac. To show that I am hoc wholly alone in the opinion I ml vanes, X quote from tho celebrated I’rof. T. Watson, of King s College, London, whose work on tho “ I‘rinol pies and practice of I’hysio” is a text book in many of our medical college#, aud consequently slamlanlaui horii y. ‘•n page 834, he says:—“We hear con tiuuall v, both in and out of the profession, different species < f fever spo ken of. By the public, Typhus Fever, Brain Fever, Bilious Fever, Putrid Favor, how Fever, Nervous Fever, ho. And systematic w rit. are to the full as particular: Vlucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Gautro-Enteric, and so forth. Now. mhoitliug that fever- shows itself under various forms, l am persuaded that the effect u|kjh tiie Wind of all tiiis sub-division, is bad and hurtful. It encourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre scribe lor a disease according to its name. There is no lino of genuine distinction between Continued fevers, that can he relad au. They run insensibly into each other, even the most dissimilar of them, and are often traceable to the same cause.” lire above is a great tact, one worthy of remembrance and X would impress on your miud# the folly of hunting up or troubling yourself about a “name;” if you have fever, treat it at once ns hereafter directed, und you will tie well instead of any distiuctcharucter being devel oped, so as to he pro|>erly named by the most scientific. This assertiou is no hypothesis based on closet specula tions or visions of mind, but on experience ut. the bed side of the sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands ut cases (by myself and others) under a great variety of cir cumstances, seasons and climate... Bear tiiis in mind, and treat at onco without regard to name, and rest assured you will soon be freed from all drwu.il of linger ing aud dangerous fevers. liot as eases may havebe oome developed before the “ Fluid” Is given, either by neglect, or under some other treatment, I will describe as briefly os possible the proper course lo U> pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though the “ llules” and “ Synopsis” will he amply autHrieut tor all those accustomed to attendance upon the siek.

My object in bing thus particular is, that tho full benefit “ts the medicine may bo obtained, and not on account of any actual necessity of such strict ob servances. unions or KemUtest Fewer.

If in any case the bowels are particularly constipated or confined, give a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the first portion ; they must he opened or the fever may risu again.

Congestive Fever. Give two teaspoousful and repeat every two hours till the pulse becomes ni tre full ami soft, then only a tea spoontul, to be discontinued as the fever subsidel.

The bowels should lie kept gently open, and small portions of some topolio should be given occasionally, even though the liowels should be very looso. Tho pati.ut should be sustained by nourishing and mncilagenous drinks—such a* are in common use in such cases.— Where the skin is very dry, sponging the surface as di rts ted in bilious fever, w ill bo found advantageous.

The boneaet tea should bo given warm till the violent symptom# are allayed, or the patient is relieved; thou cola; fomentations, mustard plaster, or something of thn kind, to bu applied over the seat of pain; keep tho bowels gently open. Variola, Varioloid, Rubeola aud Scarla tinas or .Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles, aud Scarlet Fever. As all of these diseases are atteuded with fever, which in fact is the most prominent symptom, the treatment differs line little from that of common fevers. Remember never wait to learn tho “name,” whether ills one or tho other, or neither, us they all commence Until fever, but treat it at once; govern the fever and there will bo no trouble; there will be hut UUle eruption even in small pox. Tills, to most luin.ls, is anew idea, and doubtless will be legardea with ridicule by many. 1 nevertheless boldly make the assertion, that small pox, if treated us I direct, will be sal mart; attended with but littl erup tion; little or no pitting, and that there is no necessity of its running its ordinary course, un this 1 will stake ■lot only my reputation, but a.l that J hold most dear; besides, on this subject, I have good authority; that oi I’rof. VVatsou, previously quoted, 110 says, page ts 74: “ Vou may abate the force of tbe eruptive fever, and keep down, it is believed, the number of Jie pustules by spline purges, he.” Here is the admission that it may be done. I navo not only proven it may be, but has been done in numerous eases that occurred m board ship. Bee tho account appended. (Jive a teaapoonful or more, according to the urgency of the ease, with a dose of salts or Castor oil; repeat the Fluid once in two hours if necessary, until the teversub sides—though one or two doses is genera ly sufficient; but it should be given anil repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under control. When the throat is affected, any of the ordinary gargles limy be used, and tiie surface bathed, as thought advisable. 1 u one case, on the ship Duchess d’Oi h-aus, the tongue ami fattens were so much swollen that Uie patient could not swallow or speak. and he was cured by dropping the Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow, when it was given iu teaspooulul 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 tho Fluid alone.— Used to wet tho throat frequently, it is doubtless the bed, gurgle in all such cases. Puerperal or Childbed Fever. This heretoiore pain till, dangerous mid alarming malady to which the mother is liable, will yield to tho Ncga.jve Electric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem to he of little consequence. A single dose or two of a tcospooiiful, almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need be entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should be re peated us long on the fever continues, os in other cases. The bowels of course should bo attended to. In connection with this subject, 1 caunot refrain from making ft few general remarks, which, if regarded by the ladies, will save them much pain aud suffering. It is to inform them of the happy effect of the Fluid in many of tlieir trials. In child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives the labor of much of its pains aud difficulties; it must be tried to b ■ appreciated.— Painful menstruation will be relieved ut once by a com mon dose and retiring. Restlessness, nervous irritability, ora cold taken at a delicate time, is easily relieved by its use; in short, it is oue of the most convenient and effect uni remedies for many of the ills of females, if not tho most so of any medicine known. 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, but it will sooth and quiet the system so that ono can sleep naturally and healthy; hence its use in so many eases. 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 t lie Negative electric Fluid will clinugo tho condition called lever, or subdue aud control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name, it may boor ought tq 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 he removed in order to effect a permanent cure. W hen kucli indication!* occur in any case, they should he appropriate means, and thoso soliuld 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 sub due the fever, I call all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels aro costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) with the first dose, or soon after, and should it fail to operate in duo time, repeat tho dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something known to be good for that complaint, though if caused by irritability, the ” Fluid” will soon relieve that condition; if severe local (lain or intiuminution, 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 bend, apply cold water, ice water, convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe tho f-t in hot water; if tho fever is very high, skin dry and hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe the whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature; “the saliuo wash,” vinegar and water or spirits and Wilier, either will afford great relief and aid the medi cine in taking effect, alter which there will be no trou ble; It the patient lias been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics aud stimulants, particularly in Low levers, in absence of fever or when indicated; also, during convalescence, when the patient has become re duced; if there is nausea and vomiting, that must he allayed before any medicine will remain on tiie stomach to do any goad; lor this purpose 1 generally give some gentle emetic to cleanse the stomach; warm water, if given plentifully, will answer every purpose? when the stomach has settled, give tho •• Fluid’ and a euthurtic if necessary; in short, treat all the prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giving the “Fluid” at tho same time as directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till vou have seen, and then you will he astonished at the ease with which you can control all febrile excitement. Auxiliaries. 1 ai ties may feel at a hiss to know wli.-it is meant by cathartics, Ac., as physicians are usually particular about what is used. I have found no such necessity When using tho Fluid, and to l>e fully understood by all, I will name a tew of the different articles of medi cine 1 have referred to. viz.:— Cut hui’tics.—Articles that purge or operate on tiie liowels, such us castor oil, salts, senna, an v of the roots or harks, and many pills, untibilieus. Ac.; anything known to he good for such purposes. Hepatic*.—Anything known to act on the liver IMrticulaiTy, (Hirtal circulation and secretions generally. Any of the articles depended on by the different schools for ~i i“ purpose, will answer when used in connection with the “Fluid” or while tbe system is under its In fluence. And one may choose calomel—another. Iff no mass—the third, podophyllin—the fourth, mandrake root, and so on; each may take Ins choice and be suc cessful. Tonics.—Articles that give tone or strength, such as quiuine, various harks, voots and bitter herbs. Bone set or thorough wort is on# of tho best used in fevers. Astringent.*.— Such as check the action of tho bowels. Lauduuum ami other preparation# of opium are used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents which have the effect. Stiinnlants.— -Articles that raise or excite the system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of the best; ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac,, the emences nro ail more or loss stimulating. These are the only classes neceasa ly ill treating fevers, though iiuiuv ethers are s-ei’etnllv used, lint the Negative Electric Fluid |, „ laq-er “dia phoretic,’’ “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and sedative than known in tho materia medica. 1 shall not tax the render with a long list of proofs depending mainly on the results of a trial, and will only refer to one instunro of success, that on the Pncfcetslilp Duchess D’Orlesni. which cannot be classed among ordinary certificate* • We, the undersigned, certify to tire followin ’ viz— He took iMessage on tho pnckeUliip Duchess dVrfoans utpt Hutton, then lying in the port of Havre, France’ and bound for Neiv Yoik.

The great variety of symptoms and forms of disease is owing principally to difference in age, sex, constitution and habits of the sufferers; but as ilie causa is the same, they will all equally yield to a remedy that is competent to overcome or remove that cause. By the law# 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. All Malaria, whether arising from Marshes, Stagnant water, decompo sition of animal and vegetable matter, or eve:, newly cleared lauds, is the same in character and effect; is a poi son Boating in tho atmosphere, causing disease to all who breathe it. in accordance with those unalterable laws governing the unerring affinity subsisting between op posites, there is in the preparation before us, offered to the public, The Natural Antidote to Malaria, which neutralizes t!io poison whenever it conies in con tact with it, even iu the open air, and when taken inter nally completely purifies ihe system affected by it of its baneful inliuence, and thus restores and preserves heal til. The remedy i believed to he entirely new, anti un known to any but the proprietor, who distinctly claims the following extraordinary results from its use: It will instantly cheek the ague iu persons who have suffered for any length of time, from one day to twenty years, tupi by’ continuing it use, according to the dircc lions, a radical cure w ill tie effected; the patient contin uing free from the complaint for ever; unless subsequent exposure I . malaria should inuk its use again necessary. iu its operation niton the poison iu the system, it will immediately relieve all tbe distressing symptoms of bil ious or ague diseases, aud when tbe disease Is cured, it will entirely prevent the accession of General Debility uml Night Sweats, which so often follow the administration of other mode dues. 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 bo banished from every family and class in the community; farmers, me chanics, and all laboring people may be using this arti cle as u Preventive, And pursue fin ir respective avocations in perfect safety from ague or bilious attacks during the sickly season, which is often to them the most valuable part of the your. Since the introduction of tho CUKE iu every part of 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 these declarations were made, at the date of its introduction, they seemed incredible to many, even of tiie most candid mitidk, because all she resources of science had been taxed in Vain lo subdue ague or bilious diseases; and what Was still worse for ague sufferers, all tlieir remedies or treatment, whether scientific or empirical, have been limited to poisonous or destructive dings, Midi as Ars’ nlc,'Quinine, Mercury, Sulicinc, Ac. The effects of these are sometimes worse than the disease they subdue, and wfieti sueli remedies fail, or give only temporary relief, their puis nous effects are superadded to the pour sufferer’s first complaint. Oil 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 be 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 iiemedy is not only valuable on account of its power to cure diseases, hut that it is also Worthy of Public Confidence, Because ol its Singular anil Entire Ilormlessuess, The following certificate from on of the most celebrated chemists in the United States has been obtained, and a copy of it is attached to eveiy bottle: •New Yoke, June 11, 1855. “I have made a chemical examination of Rhodes’ Fever und Ague Cure, or Antidote to .Malaria, and have tested it for Arsenic, Mercury, Quinine, and Strychnine, but have nut found a particle of either in it, nor have 1 found any substance in Its composition (hat would prove inju rious to the constitution. “JAMBS R. CHILTON, M. I)., Chemist.” It i( a stubborn lacs, therefore, that this Remedy is destined not only’ to relieve the human family from malarious diseases, hut to do an eqnully good work by preventing the taking of other medicines which do harm. The entire absence of any baneful ingredient makes tiiis Remedy not more valuable as aCure, 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 aft, both residents and travelers, should protect themselves by the timely uso of this preventive, and not w ait for the poison already lurking in their veins, to develop icselt in a violent attack. Take tho Cure as a preventive, and so uestroy the ]>oisoii before it does harm. Full directions and advice as to diet and habits of life prepared by a distinguished Physician long resident in a Bilious climate now accompany each bottle. It will often he found necessary so precede this medi cine by a mild cathartic or antibilious purgative. Tho very best thing for general m.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 must r.E takcn or the operation of the antidote will be seriou.-ly ob structed. Only Caution.—ln certain specified cases, pour tbe contents of one or more bottles of tiie Cure into shallow vessels, (dining plates,, and place them in sleeping rooms; for the vapor rising from the medicine, and also the air watted across, or circulated over the dregs of it, after the liquid is evaporated, will counteract aud destroy, to a degiee commensurate witli its expo sure, the miasmata or poison contained in the apartment. This mode of exhibiting the (Jure should likewise bo resorted to when very young infants are exposed to malarious situations. The bottles in which this medicine is put up have the words, “Rhodes’ Finer and Aauc.

Since then 1 have disposed of a large quantity, mostly to residents of this city, w ho have inva riably been cured by it, and to whom I can refer. I am, therefore, satisfied in recommending it to bv all that tire proprietor represents. EDWARD S. WHEATON, Presd’t of Pharmaceutical Socioty of Missouri. Had tire Ague for Twelve Years I Providence, June 23, 1355. Having Jiccn informed of the illness of a poor, but worthy woman, who has not been fre e from Fever and Ague a month at a time for the last twelve years, 1 sup plied her gratuitously with Rhodes’ Fever and Ague Cure. She took in all four bottles which completely re stored her to health and strength, and as four mouths have bom elapsed, there is no reason tddoubt tbo perma nency ol the cure. C. A. P.

Rhodes—Having been entirely cured by your remedy, I take pleasure iu assuring you of the Benefit it has been to me. I was first attacked by chills and fever on the Isthmu if Panama, several months since, and in spite of tli • aift'erent remedies and treatment T adopted, my heal i.'grevv worse until I commenced the use of your Fever uud Ague Cure.— Since that time I have not had a single chill, and sun now in the enjoyment of good health. Wishing y jur m ‘diciae the success that it merits, I remain truly yours, THOMAS G. ANDREWS. I. O. O. F. In another column of to-day’s paper will he found an advertisement for “Rhodes’ Fever and Ague Cure.” We are not in the habit of puffing medicines, but desire to say, for the benefit of the afflicted, that Wm. N. Rowe, Merchant, Sharpsburg, who has it for sale, in forms us that he sold several dozen bottles, and in every case it has effected a cure. This proves the medi cine to be good, and wo take pleasure in bringing it before the notice of the public. —Odd Fellow, Bonnsbaro, Ml. Sept. 4. Evidence from a Clergyman. Plymouth, Richland Cos., Ohio, Nept. 25,1555. Mr. J. A. Rhodes, —Dear Sir—l cheerfully testify to tho 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 Curo aud has not had a chill since. A young man also used the same Balsam some time without relief until lie got a bottle of your Cure. So far it works like a charm. Y'ours truly, Kev. A. C. DUBOIS. Unsolicited Evidence from a Pliysician. MONTIPELLO, Did., Aug. 27, 1855. J. A. Rhodes—Dear Fir—l have been in the practice of Medicine here for about throe years, and can con scientiously recommend your medicine, having used it myself and proscribed it in a number of instances with perflict success. Respectfully yours. W. G. SPENCER. Louisville No. 11, C. K. R., (la., Jan. 1, 1850. Your Ague Cure has overcome all prejudices by its merits, and given satisfaction. A gentleman just culled who lias 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. ‘ W. A. 11AYLES. If any body desires further evidences, they will find it in every bottle of the CURE, which is being intro duced as rspidlv as possible in', o every town and village in the United states, Canadas, Ac. The eminent chem ist., Dr. J. it. Chilton, of New Y’ork, certifies to its per fect innocence. It is therefore optional with all to have the Fever and A-m-or not. just as they please. I can also say that a great many of my largest custo mers are those who a year ago were reluctant even to take the Cure on commission. They thought ils great claims and pretensions could not he realised. Now they endorse them all. and it will be noticed that the letters of which 1 publish mi h immense quantities are always new and late dates—altogether they would more than fill any uewjiapor, and prove the tact of a greater suc cess and sale than everattended any other Ague Remedy. Tiie Crowning Glory 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 Stateß would ever have a single attack of Fever and Ague, Bilious or Yellow Fever, or any form of disease arising from the atmospheric poison ‘Malaria, to which the Cure is a perfect antidote. it is also unequalled for quick and permanent effects us a Restorative, giving new life and streugtli to all Whose constitutions have been shattered or weakened by Ague or Bilious diseases, night sweats, languor and de bility or any kind of intemperance or dissipation.
