N JSQ'A.Ti Vl3 ELECTRIC FLUID, Prepared by S. W. Seat, M. D. Henson* why it should be used instead of any other treat- i rnuut in all Febrile affections: let.— Economy of Time.—As only one-seventh •f the ordinary time is required to effect a cure. ‘id.—Economy of Money. —As it c ,sts but one I dollar. 3rd. Economy of Peeling.— As it saves the suffering of a long sickness and the consequent treat ment; the annoyance of taking nauseating doses of medicine, their disagreeable operation, nnd the pain of long confinement; lint little of the fluid being necessary, and that pleasant in its effect*. 4th. — Economy of Thought. —As when known, it will remove all dread and anxiety at present existing, respecting febrile affections; particularly while a dear friend is sick. 5 th. — Economy of Health.— As the system is not reduced, and consequently rucked; nor is tiie fever subject to he followed by chronic disease. Oth. — Economy of Life.—As the cure is effected before and without reducing the patient, consequently removing, in a corresponding degree, all danger of a fatal termination. Other roasons might he added, but these are deemed sufficient to satisfy ull classes and persons in all condi tions of life. The above reasons are more particularly applicable to the immediate treatment on the tirst attack, hut will apply witli 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 it is first adminis tered. As this remedy gives so prompt, effectual and perma nent relief, in all ordinary cases, when used soon after (lie attack, persons can scarcely realize that they had been really much sick, and very naturally conclude tli y War < not attacked with fever, and if so, “it wav trifling —a little cold, which gave ularm—it could have been nothing of consequence—it would have passed off with out anything—that medicine hud noeffoct.” The general Impression on the subject us fever is such, that thoughts net unlike the above follow the cure of a common case as naturally as men think at all; and it is not until the individual has witnessed many canes that ho can fully realise the truth; and even then he may conclude them all very hiding caws, which would have readily yielded to any simple medicine, yet persons, though they have been thus successful in perhaps hundreds of cases, must expect tiiat there will coses occur wln re there is seme srganlo or iocul cause so great as to require particular attention, or though success.ui in reducing tho fever, It will again rise as the influence of the ■’ fluid” pusses ed, as the exciting cause may still exist. It is to guard against disappointment lit ton'll cases that 1 have given and frequently refer to what 1 huve called a “ synopsis.” RemarUs on Fevers In benerah On this subject I wish to he fully understood. By tho term “fevers,” I comprehend till febrile affections to which the human frame is subject, including small pox and other eruptive fevers; hut as they arise by u great variety of causes, and in quite dissimilar constitutions snd habits, they of course differ considerably in their development and exhibit a variety of forms or types; y< t all are distinguished by the same general character istlcs—that ot undue excitement in the circulatory and nervous systems —inducing more or less uiiuaiiiral fre quency in the pulse, sense of heat, dryness of the skin, uebility, Ac. To show that I am not wholly alone in the opinion I advance, I quote from the celelirufed i’rof. T. Watson, es King's College, London, whose work on tho “ Princi ples and Practice of I’hysic” is a text book in many of our medical colleges, and consequently standard authority. tin page 534, he says:—“ We hear continual!’ , both in and out of the profession, different species of fever spo ken of. By the public, Typhus Fever, Brain fever, Hillous Fever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever, Ac. And systematic, writers are to the full u.s particular: Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Qastro-Knteric, 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 bad 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 ou. They run insensibly into each ether, oven the most dissimilar of thorn, and are often traceable to the same cause.” The above is a great fact, ono worthy of remembrance and I would imprest on your minds the folly of bunting up or troubling youiself about a “name;” if you have fever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and you will be well instead of any dlstinctcharacter being devel oped, SO as to be 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 > f the sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands ot cases (by myself and others) under a great variety of cir cumstances, seasons and climates. Bear this in mind, and treat at onco without regard to name, and rest assured you will soon be freed from ull dread of linger ing ami dangerous fevers. But as cases may have be come developed before the “ Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under some other treatment, 1 will describe as briefly as possible the proper course to be pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though the “ Buies” and “ Synopsis’’ will be amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon the sick. Jiules important to be observed in all cases in using the Negative Electric Fluid. Ist. It should be given ill three or four times its own quaulity of water, uud may lie sweetened or not at pleasure. Jd. l’atieuts must bo free from all currents of air, (though there should always be free ventilation in the sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in fluence. fid. U must Ito continued whenever tho fever subsides, or is evidently passing off; to lie resumed when it begins to rise again, should such bo the case under any circumstances. 4th. When the fever begins to subside, patients must be left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should not bo questioned as to their wants or feelings, nor attempt to converse, read or tako any exercise whatever, till their own natural feelings, independent of all extra neous influences, induce them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation bo allowed in their hearing, in which they may feel more or less interested, but lie left quiet to all iutonts and purposes. Mb. Fluids should be allowed, while giving it as plentifully, and as long ns the patient desires nnd no longer; they may consist of cold water, mucilaginous drinks, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, either sold or warm as parties may prefer or patients desire. iith. Should patients exiierienco any oppression or faintness while in the lying posture, so as to occasion a restlessness after tho fever lias 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, ginger, or some othor stimulant; or the face and breast may be bathed in cold water; either of which will give iuimodiate 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 “ “ 12 to 30 . “5 “ 10 “ “ 20 to 50 “ “ “ 8 “ 15 half to n teaspoonful. All persons over fifteen considered as adults, for whom a toaspuouful is n common dose. Old persons do not require as much as young, or those in the prime of life; nor females, as a general rule, as much as males. There is no particular care necessary in giving it to shildren —those of ten years of age frequently having taken full doses; but for a little guide. 1 have given the above table, with the remark that, as a general rule, eb.ldreu require more than adults in proportion. By observing the above directions, the medicine will bo found agreeable in all of its effects, the expectations of the most sanguine realized, nnd many perfectly astonished. My object in being thus particular is, tlmit the full heuetlt of tho medicine may be obtained, and not on account of any admit necessity of such strict ob servances. Bilious or Remittent. Fever. Give a toasponful of “Fluid” (see rule Ist) ones in two hours, till tho fever is evidently passing off; this constitutes tho whole treatmeut iu till simple cases of fever, with such observances as are set forth iu the * Buies.” But should there bo prominent local symp toms, or known local existing causes, they should be attended to at once, and while giving the “ Fluid.” See Syuopsis. If in any case the bowels are particularly constipated nr confined, give a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the first portion ; they must lie opened or the fever may rise again. Where the fever is very high, pulse running 110 or upwards, and tho patient is not particularly susceptible to tin* influence of medicine —not easily operated on liy medicine generally—n double dose, or two teuapoousful may be given at first with advantage, and even repeated in two hours —if it—the pulse—has not been softened, thus showing the medicine has taken effect. Bathing the surface with water at an agreeable temperature, the saline wash, vinegar or spirits ami water, in those difficult cases, will afford relief nnd aid the medicine much in taking effect. Congestive Fever. Give two teaspoousful and repeat every two hours till the pulse becomes more full and soft, then oulv a ten sn,muful, to be discontinued as the fiver subsidei. As the bowels are generally confined, and it is frequently very difficult to got medicine to operate in tills disease, no time should be lost to get them open, give some active setfiortio with tho “Fluid” and repeat ns may fie neces •ary till it operates; enemas (injections) niay also be e-oil o advantage; also, mustard to the extremities, or friction (rubbing) with the hands or flannel; also, cold application* to the head. Quinine may be added to the * Fluid” if thought advisable. Bee Synopsis. Nervous Fever, Typhus, Ship nnd Putrid or Spotted Fever. As these fevers are all of ono character, differing ■B'n'y i degreo, being all of a low grade, the pulse small anil wiry, with a general great depression, there is ” practical use in separating them—at least so far as aiy *.immt is concerned In these low fevers, when fully developed, a little patience will be required; still enmparatively little, as they frequently run weeks under commoß treatment, while with this but a few days will b* ucsessary st longest to establish a permanent aonvwlssssns*. The treatment should be commenced—which tnav hnmsdiatvly follow any other without detriment—with a t<wwpT inM of “Fluid*’ every two hour*, till the puls* feller or larger in volume, then to be continued Whs to daar sight hour* till t** fever entirely subside*. in bad cases, from three to live grains each of quinine and capsicum {Cayenne pepper} or some tonic and .in;ll lau t (see auxiliaries) should be added to each dose. The bowels should ire kept gently open, and small portions of some hepatic should bo given occasionally, even though the bowels should bo very loose. The patient should be sustuiued by nourishing and mucilagenous drinks —such as are in common use in such cases.— Where the akin is very dry, sponging the surface as di reeled ill bilious fever, will be found advantageous. Tonics should boused during convalescence, in all cases which liavo become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lung or Winter Fever. Glvo u teaspoouful of the “ Fluid” every two hours, with a wine-glassful of a strong decoction of bonccct; or half the quantity uiny lie given every hour till relieved, then, at lunger intervals, say once in six or oight hours. The boucset tea should be given warm till the violent symptoms aru allayed, or tho patient is relieved; then cold; fomentations, mustard piaster, or something of the kind, to be applied over tile seat of pain; keep the bowels gently open. Variola, Varioloid. Rubeola and Scarla tina; or Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles, and Scarlet Fever. As all of these diseases are attended witli fever, which iu fact is Hie most prominent symptom, the treatment differs hue little from that of common levers. Remember never wait to learn tho “name,” whether it is one or the other, or neither, os they all commence with fever, but treat it lit once; govern the lever Bud there will fie no trouble; there will be lad little ernpliim even in small pox. This, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubtless will be regarded with ridicule by many. J nevertheless boldly make the assertion, that ftnall pox, if treated us 1 direct, will be cut short; attended with tut little erup tion; little or no pitting, and that there is no necessity of Its ran Bing Its ordinary course. On this 1 will stake not only my reputation, imt u 1 that I hold most dear; besides, ou this subject, 1 have good authority; that of I’rof. Watson, previously quoted, lie says, page 874: “ You muy abate the force of the eruptive lever, and keep down, it is believed, the number oj the pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Here is the admission Unit it may lie done. 1 nave not only proven it may be, but has been done in numerous caees that occurred on hoard ship, bee the account appended. Give a teaspoouful or more, according to the urgency of tiie cose, with a dose of salts or cantor oil; repeat the Fluid once in two hours it necessary, until the fever sub sides —though one or two doses is genera ly sufficient; but it should be given nnd repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under control. When the throat is affected, any of tiie ordinary gargles may bo used, and the surface bathed, as thought advisable. In one case, on the ship Duchess d’Orleans, the tongue and faucus were so much swollen that the (oitient could not swallow or speak, und lie was cured by dropping the Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till ho could swallow, when it whs given in teaspoouful doses every hour, till all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelliug 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 tho throat frequently, it is doubtless tiie best gargle, in all such cases. Puerperal or Childbed Fever. This heretofore painful, dangerous uud alarming malady to which tho mother Is liable, will yield to the Negative hlectric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem to be of little consequence. A single dose or two of a teaspoouful. almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need be entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it iu a short time, it should be re ;s'uted ss long as the fever continues, as in other cases. The bowels of course should ite attended to. In connection with this subject, 1 cannot refrain from making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by the ladies, will sure them much paiu and suffering, it is to inform them of the happy effect of the Fluid in many of their trials. In child-birth, 1U relaxing anil soothing effect deprives the labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must bo tried to be appreciated.— Painful menstruation will be 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 short, it is one of the most convenient and effectual remedies formally of the ills of females, if not the most so ofnuy medicine known. I ts 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 anil quiet the system so that or.e can sleep naturally and healthy; hence 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 Hlectric Fluid will change the condition called lever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name it may be or ouglitto he called, it should bo giien wherever or whenever it exists; yet it . an not be ex pected to control nil organic or local causes, which, when such exist, must be removed in order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any case, they should be appropriate means, and these sohuld be given while giving the “Fluid,” and in connection with it, when occasion requires, as they will then nioro readily act, producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary time will then be lust As the Fluid” alone will sub due the fever, I call all else auxiliary treatmeut. If the bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) with the tirst dose, or soon after, and should it fail to operate iu duo time, repeat the dose; if attended with diarrluea, give something known to be good for that complaint, though if caused by irritability, the “Fluid” will soon relieve that condition; if severe local paiu or inflammation, 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 iu tiie head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe the feet in hot water; if the lever is very high, skin dry and hot, with grout suffering, sponge or bathe the whole surface with water at au agreeable temperature; “the saline wash,” vinegar and water or spirits and water, either will afford great relief and aid tho medi cine in taking effect, after which there will be no trou ble; if the patient has been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics ami stimulants, particularly iu low fevers, in absence of fever or when indicated; also, during convalescence, when the patient has become re duced; if there ts nausea and vomiting, tiiat must be allayed before any medicine will remain on the 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 Inis settled, give the “ Fluid” and a cathartic if necessary ; in short, treat all the prominent symptoms as you would under any othor circumstances, giving ifie “Fluid” at the same time as directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till you have seen, and tlieu you will be astonished at tiie ease with which you cun control all febrile excitement. Auxiliaries. Parties may feel at a loss to know what is meant by cathartics, Ac., as physicians are usually particular about what is used. 1 lnivo found no such necessity when using the Fluid, nnd to be fully understood by all, 1 will name a lew of the different articles of medi cine I have referred to. viz:— Cut liart ics.—Articles tlmt purge or operate on the bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots or barks, and many pills, autibillous, Ac.; anything known to lie good for such purposes. Ilr put ics.—Anything known to act outlie liver particularly, portal circulation and secretions generally. Any of the articles depended on by the different schools for this purpose, will answer when used in connection with the “Fluid” or while the system is under its in fluence. And one limy choose calomel—another, blue mass—the third, podophyllin—the fourth, mandrake root, and so on; each muy take his tie ace mid be suc cessful. Tonics.— Articles tliatgive tone or strength, such as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. B.me ser or thoroughwort is ono of the best used in fevers. Astringents.—Such as check the action of the bowels, Imudanum and other preparations of opium are used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents, which have tho effect. Stimulants.—Articles that raise or excite the system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of the best; ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., the essences are all more or less stimulating. These are the ouly classes necessa ry iu treating fevers, though many others are generally used, hut the Negative Kleetrle Fluid is a hotter “dia phoretic,” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and “sedative” than known in the materia medico. 1 shall not tax the reader with a long list of proofs, depending mainly on the results of a trial, uuil will only refer to oue instance of success, tlmt on the Pnckrtshtp Duchess D’Orlesni. which cannot be classed among ordinary certificates: Wo, the undersigned, certify to the following, viz Wo took passage on the packctship Duchess d’Orieatis Capt Hutton, then lying in the port of Havre France mid bound for New York. She sailed on the 9th of Au gust, 1851, with over u hundred souls on board, mostly emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, the small pox broke out among tho emigrants, They were all treated by the physician in charge. Dr. N. W. Sent with anew remedy ofhisown, which he calls Negative’ Klee trie Fluid, with 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 davs there were about eighty case* of small pox. some fever’ Ac., and not a single death. All were cured with unu sual promptness. From whnt we saw during said passage, wears fully convinced that tho medicine used by Dr. Seat on the oc casion. possesses inestimable virtue’s. We never before heard or read of febrile affections being controlled with so much ease, promptness and certainty, or so little trouble to tho nurse.
