Oth. — Economy of Life. —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 ho added, but these are deemed suiflivient to satisfy all classes and persons in all condi tions of life. The abovo reasons are more particularly applicable to the immediate treatment on the first attack, but will apply with equal force to cases which have been subject ed to or have become reduced, Corresponding of course to the nature of the case at the time ills first adminis tered. As this remedy gives so prompt, effectual and perma nent relief, in all ordinary cases, when used soon after tho attack, persons can scarcely reall/.e that they bad been really much sick, and very naturally conclude tli y wars not attacked with fever, and if so, “it was trifling —a little cold, which gave alarm —it could have been nothing of cansequcnce—it 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 caso s< naturally us men think at all; and It is not until the individual has witnessed many cases that he can fully realise tlie truth; and even then he may conclude them all very trifling cases, which would h ve readily yielded to any simple medicine, yet persons, hough they have been thus successful In perhaps hundreds of cases, must x eet that there will cases i.coiir wh re there is Home sr rattle or local cause so great as to require particular attention, or though success.ul in reducing (lie fever, it will again rice as the influence of the “Fluid” passes off, as tho exciting cause may still exist. It is to guard against disappointment in men cases that I have given and frequently refer to what I have cnllod a “ synopsis.” Remark* on Fevers In bi neral- Ou this subject I wish to he fully understood, ily tins term “ fevers,” l comprehend all febrile affections to which tiie human frame is subject, including small pox anil other eruptive fevers; but as they arise by a groat variety of cutises, and in quite dissimilar constitutions uud habits, they of course differ considerably in tiieir development and exhibit a variety id’ forms or types; j ,d all are distinguished by the same general character i - tics—that olundue excitement in the circulatory and U'-rvous systems —inducing more or less unnatural fre quency in tho pulse, sense of heat, dryness of tho skin, debility, Ac. To show that I am uot wltolly alone in the opinion 1 advance, I quote from the celchrafed I'rof. T. Watson, el King's College, isrudon, whose Work on the “ Princi ples and Practice of Physic” is a text book In many of our medical colleges, anil consequently standard authority. On pig 834, lie says :—“We It oar continually, both in and out of the profession, different species of fever spo ken of. By the public, Typhus Fever, llrain Fever, Bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, how Fever, Nervous Fever, Ac. And systematic writers are to Ute full as particular; Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Castro-Enteric, and so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, I am persuaded that the effect upon the mind 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 iitt” of genuine distinction between continued fevers, that can Ite relied on. They run insensibly into each other, oven tho most dissimilar of them, and are often tin oable to tiie same cause.” The above is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance and I would impress on your minds tiie folly of hunting up or troubling youi self about a•• name; ’if you have fever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and you will be. well instead of any distinctcharacter being devel oped, so as to he properly named by tiie most scientific. Tills assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula tion* or visions of mind, but on experience ut the bed side of the sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands of cases (by myself and others) under a great variety of cir cumstances, seasons and climates. Bear this in mind, ami treat at once without regard to name, and rest assured you will soon be freed from all dread of linger ing and dangerous levers. Hut as cases may have be come developed before the “ Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under some other treatment, I will describe as briefly as possible the proper course to he pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though tiie “ Rules” and “ Synopsis” will be amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon tho sick. Hub’s important to be observed in all cases in using the Negative. Electric Fluid. Ist. It should he given in three or four times its own quantity of water, and may be sweetened or not at pleasure. 2d. Patients must l>o free from all currents of air, (though there should always bo free ventilation in the sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in fluence. 3d. J t must lie continued whenever the fever subsides, or is evidently passing off; to be resumed when it begins to rise again, should such be tiie case under any circumstances. 4th. When the lover begins to subside, patients must be left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should uot l*o questioned as to theh wants or feelings, nor attempt tocouverse, road or take any oxerciso whatever, till their own natural feelings, independent of all extra neous influences, induce them to riso or speak; nor should any conversation he allowed in their hearing, in which they may feel more or loss interested, but be left quiet to all intents and purposes. Stli. Fluids should be allowed, while giving it as plentifully, aud as long as tile patient desires and no longer; they may consist of cold water, mucilaginous drinks, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, either cold or warm as parties may prefer or patients desire. nth. Should patients experience any oppression or faintness while in tho lying posture, s'> as to occasion a restlessness after the fever has passed off, or enough to occasion them to speak of it. they should have a little wine, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade with a little spirit, giugor, or some other stimulant; or the facound breast may be bathed in cold water; either of which will give immediate relief. TABLE OF DOSES. For children of one year or under, from 3 to 8 drops. “ over 1 and under 2 years, “ sto 15 “ “ “ 2 “ 5 “ “ 6 “ 10 “ “ ”0 to 50 ” 8 “ 15 half to a teaspoonful. All persons over fifteen considered ns adults, lor whorn a teaspoonful is a common dose. Old tan-sons do not require as much as young, or those in the prime of life; nor females, as a general rule, ns much as males. there Is no particular care necessary in giving it to children—those often years of age frequently having taken full doses ; but for a little guide. J have given tho above table, with the remark that, as a general rule, children require more than adults in proportion. By observing the above directions, the medicine will be found agreeable in all of its effects, the expectat ions of the most sanguine realised, aud many perfectly astonished. My object in being thus particular is, that the full benefit of the medicine may lie obtained, and uot ou account of any actual necessity of such strict ob servances. Bilious or Remittent. Fever. Give a teasponful of •• Fluid” (see rule Ist) once in two hours, till the fever is evidently passing off; this constitutes tho whole treatment in all simple cases of fever, with such olwervances as are set forth in the “ Rules.” But thoiild there ho prominent local symp toms, or known local existing causes, they should lie attended to at once, aud while giving the “Fluid.” See Synopsis. If in any caso the bowels are particularly constipated or confined, give n cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the first portion ; they must be opened or the fever may rise again. Where the fever is very high, pulse running 110 or upwards, and the patient is not particularly susceptible to the influence of medicine—net easily operated on by uiedicino generally—a double dose, or two teaapoousful may begiveu at first with advantage, and even repeated in two hour*—if it—the pulse—lias not been softened, thus showing the medicine lias taken effect. Bathing the surface with water at an agreeable temperature, the saline wash, vinegar or spirits and water, in these difficult cases, will afford relief and aid the medicine much in taking effect. Congestive Fever. Oitp two teaspoonsful and repeat every two hours till the pulse becomes more full and soft, ti. u only u tea spoonful, to bo discontinued as the fever stibsldei. As till’ bowels are generally confined, utul it is froo neatly vorjr dli. i'Ult to get medicine to opt-rato in this disease, no time should bo lost to get thorn opou, pi vo some active cathartic with the “Fluid” and repeat as may be neces sary till it operates; eueiuns (injections) may also be u-ed to advantage; also, mustard to the exti, mities. or filotion (rubbing) with tlio hands or f.annol; also, cold applications to the head. Quinine may he added to the ” Fluid'’ if thought advisable. See Synopsis. Nervous Fever) Typhiu, Ship mul Putrid or Spot ted Fever. As these fevers are all of one character, differing davinly ia degree, being all of a low grade, the pulse auvtll and wiry, with a general great depression, there is no practical use In separating them—at least so far as my treatment is concerned. In these low fevers, when fnll.v developed, a little patience will be required; still •ouiparatively little, as they frequently run woeks under common treatment, while with this but a few days will be necessary at longest to establish a permauent eonvalescense. The treatment should be commenced— which may immediately follow any other without detriment with s teaspoonfnl of “Fluid” every two hour*, till the pulse becomes falter or larger in volume, then to he continued la its or sight hours till the fever entirely subsides. In bad casus, from three to five grains cacti of quinine. and capsicum (Cayenne pepper) or some ionic and stimu lant (hoc auxiliaries) should lie added to each dost. The bowels should bo kept gently open, and small portions of sonio hepatia should be given occasionally, even though the bowels should be very loose. The patient should bo sustained by uourisioug and mucilagenou* drinks—such as are in common me id such cases.— Where the skin is very dry,sponging tho suitace as di rected in bilious fever, will be found advantageous. Tonics should he used during convalescence, in uli cases which have boot mo reduced. Pueuiuoida, Typhoid Pm umouia, Lung or Winter Fever. Uivoa teaspoonful of tho “Fluid” every two ho..is, witli a wine-glassful of a strong decoction Os bofieaet; or half the quantity may bo given every lionr till relieved, then, at longer intervals, fay once in six or eight hours The boncset tea should bo given warm till the violent symptoms aro allayed, or the patient is relieved ; then cold; fomentations, mustard piaster, or something of Hie kind, to be applied over the seat of pain ; keep the bowels gently open. Variola, “Varioloid, Rubeola ami Scarla tina; or small Pox, Varioloid, Measles, and Scarlet Fever. As all of these discuses are attended with fever, which in fact is the most prominent symptom, the treatment differs hue little from that of common fevers. Remember never wait to learn the “name,” whether it is one or tho other, or neither, us they nil commence with fever, but trout it at once; govern the lever and there will he no trouble; there will bo but little, eruption even in small pox. This, to most minds, is anew idea, uud doubtless will be regarded with ridicule by many. 1 nevertheless boldly make the assertion, that small ;>ox, if treated as 1 direct, will be. cut short; attended with but little erup tion; little or no pitting, uud that there is no necessity of Its running its ordinary course. On thin 1 will stake not only my reputation, but a i that 1 hold most dear; besides, ou this subject, i have good authority; Unit ol i’rof. Watson, previously quoted. He nays, page 874: “You may übato tho force of tho eruptive lever, and keep down, it is believed, the number of the. pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Here is the admission that it may bo done. 1 nave not only proven it may be, but has been done in numerous cases that, occurred on board ship. See tiie account appended. tiive it teasjKioutui or more, according to tho urgency of tiie case, with a dose of salts cr castor oil; repeat the Fluid once in two hours if necessary, until the fever sub sides—though one or two doses is genera ly sufficient; but it should bo given and repeated sufficiently to keep tho fever under control. When the throat is affected, any of tlie ordinary gargles may lie used, and tho surface bathed, os thought advi.-able.’ In one case, on tiie ship Duchess d'Orleans, the tongue and fuucus were so much swollen that the patient could not swallow or speak, and lie was cured by dropping the Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow, when it Was given in tcuapoonful iluses tviry hi Air, till ail alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of the throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment ill about twelve hours by tiie Fluid alone.— Used to wet the throat frequently, it i.. doubtless the to st gargle in all such cases. Puerperal or Childbed Fever. This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming malady to which tiie mother is liable, w ill yield to the Negative Electric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem to be of little consequence. A single dose or two of a teaspoonful, almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need bo entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should he re peated as long as the fever continues, as in other cases. The bowels of course should he attended to. In connection with this subject, 1 cannot refrain from making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by the ladies, will save them much pain and suffering. It ia to inform them of the happy effect of the Fluid in many of their trials, in child-birth, its relaxing and s.Kittling effect deprives tiie labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must be tried to be appreciated.— Painful menstruation will bo relieved at 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 abort, it is one of the most convenient and effectual remedies for many of tiie ills of females, if not the most so of any medicine known. Its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability and iritability ol tin: nervous as well as tiie circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and quiet the system so that one can sleep naturally and healthy; hence its use in so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, aud condense tiie treat ment as much as possible, 1 give under this head general directions for all cases. As the Negative Electric Fluid will change tiie condition called lever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name, it muy be or ought to be called, it should lie given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot be ex pected to control all organic or local cuuses, which, when such exist, must be removed in order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any case, they should bo appropriate means, and these soliuld be given while giving tiie “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, 1 call all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) with the lirst dose, or soon after, and should it •ail to operate in due time, repeat tiie dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something known to be good for that complaint, though if caused by irritability, tiie “Fluid” will soon relieve that condition; if severe local pain or inflammation, apply some stimulating liniment, a mustard plaster, u blister, fomentations of bitter herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet in eold water, to the part; if violent pain in the head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or seine cooling application, aud bathe tiie feet in hot water; if tho fever is very high, skin dry and hot, witli great suffering, sponge or bathe (lie whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature; tiie saline wash,” vinegar aud fritter or spirits and water, either will afford great relief aud aid tiie medi cine in taking effect, ul'ter which there will be no trou ble ; if tho patient tins been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tollies and stimulants, particularly in low fevers, in uhsenco of lover or whan indicated; also, during convalescence, when tho patient has become re duoed; if there is nausea anil vomiting, that must be allayed before any medicine will remain on tiie stomach to do any good; for this purpose I 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” aud a cathartic if necessary; in short, treat all tho prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giving tiie “Fluid” at tiie same time as directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till you have seen, and then you will be astonished at the case with which you can control all febrile excitement. Auxiliaries. Forties may feel ut a loss to know what is meant by cathartics, Ac., as physicians are usually particular about what is used. 1 havo found no such necessity when using the Fluid, and to lie fully understood by all. 1 will name a tew of the different articles of medi cine 1 have referred to, viz:— t at hurtles. Articles that purge or operate on the bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots or barks, and many pills, untibiliou*, Ac.; anything known to be good for such purposes. Hepatic*.—Anything known to act on the liver particularly, portal circulation and secretions generally Any of the articles depended on by the different schools’ lor tins purpose, will answer when used in connection witli the - Fluid” or while the system is under its in fluence. And one may choose calomel—another, blue mass—tho Hurd, podopliylliu—tho fourth, mandrake root, and so on; each may take his choice and be suc cessful. Tonies.—Articles that give tone or stron.-n. -.. .i. ns quinine, various bul k.-', roots and hitter herbs. Hune sei or thorough wort is one of the best used in fevers. Astringent*.—Such ns check the action of the bowels. Laudanum and other preparations of opium are used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents which have the effect. Stimulants.—Articles that raise or excite tho system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of tho best; ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., tho essences are all more or less stimulating. These are tho only cl.i-ses necessa ry In treating fevers, thougli many others are gene rally used, but the Negative Electric Fluid is bettor •• dia phoretic.’’ “anodyne.” “diuretic,” “relaxant ” and * uciltttivo than known in tho i materia medico 1 shall not tax tho reader with a long list’of proofs, depending mainly on the results of a trial, and will only refer to one instance of success, that on the PaeketsHlp Duehes* B’Orlean*. which cannot be classed among ordinary certifle ites- We. the undersigned, certify to tiie’following viz— YYe timk passage on the pneketship Duchess d'Urleans, Capt Uuttou, then lying in tiie port of Havre Franco and bound for New York.
