PTJ3GA.TIVE ELECTRIC FLUID, !
Ppprrt by N. W. Meat, M. D.
ft-stuns why it should be need fnxtnful of any other treat
ment iu nil Febrile affection* :
■ ut.— Economy of Time.—As only w.-xecenth
•f the ordinary time i required to effect a cure.
‘■ill. --Economy of Money. —As it c sn but one
dollar.
3rd.—Economy of Feeling.— As it saves the
Suffering of a long sickness and tlio consequent treat
ment; the annoyance of taking nauseating doses of
medicine, their ilisagrceablo operation, and the pain of
long confinement; but little of tho fluid being necessary,
and that pleasant in its effects.
♦t h. — Economy of Thought. —As when
known, it will remove all dread and anxiety at present
sxMtini, respecting febriloaffections; particularly whllo
a dear friend is sick.
Sill.—Economy of Health.—As tho system
is not reduced, and consequently racked; nor is tlio fover
subject to lie followed by chfouic disease.
nth. — Economy of Life.— As the cure is effected
before and without reducing the patient, consequently
rumoring, in a corresponding degree, all danger of a fatal
termination.
Other reasons might bo added, bnt these are deemed
sufficient to satisfy all classes and persons in all condi
tions of life.
The above 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
ad to or haTu become reduced, corresponding of course
to the nature of the case at tho time It is first adminis
tered.
As this remedy (fires so prompt, effectual and perma
nent relief, in all ordinary cases, when used soon after
the attack, persons can scarcely realize that they had
been really much sick, and Tory naturally conclude tie y
Won not attacked with fever, and 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 anythiug—that medicine had noeffect.” The general
impression on the subject of fever Is such, that thoughts
k it unlike the above follow the cure of a Common case
as naturally as men think st all; and It is not uutil
Ml? Individual has witnessed many rae.-sthat lie can fully
seal ire the truth; and even then ho may conclude them
all very trifling cases, which would have readily yielded
► > any simple mislinine, yet persons, though they have
been thus aticcescful in perhaps hundreds of cases, must
sx;>ect that there will cases occur win-ro there is some
•rganic or local cause so great os to require particular
attention, or though success ill in reducing tho fever,
ft will again rise as tho Influence of the “Fluid*’ passes
sfl, as the exciting cause may still exist. It is to guard
against disappointment In mien cases that I have given
and frequently refer to what I have called a “synopsia.”
Remarks on Fevers tn General’
On this subject 1 wish to he fully understood. By the
term “fevers,” 1 comprehend all febrile affections to
which the human frame is subject, Including small pox
and other eruptive fevers; but ns they arise by a great
variety of cauaos, and in quite dissimilar constitutions
am) iinblls, they of rour.se differ considerably in their
development ami exhibit a variety of forms or types;
its all are distinguished by iho same general chnrocter-
Islicn—that ol undue excitement in the circulatory and
aervous syatoms—inducing more or less unnatural fre
quency in the pulse, sense of heat, dryness of tiie skin,
debility, Ac.
To show that I am not wholly alone In the opinion I
advance, 1 quote from the eolehrafed I‘rof. T. Watson,
a! King s College, London, whoso work on tlio “ Princi
ples and Practice of Physic” is a text book in many of
our medical colleges, and consequently slaiutardauthoniy.
(ill page 854, ho says:—“We hear continually, lioth In
ami out of the profession, different species of f-ver spo
ken of. By the public, Typhus Fever, Brain Fever,
ltdious Fever, Putrid Fovor, Low Fover, Nervous Fever,
Ac. And systematic writers are to the full as particular:
Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Uastro-Kiiteric, and
• > forth. Now, admitting that fevur shows itself under
various forms, 1 am porsuadod that tho effect upon the
mind of all this sub-division, is bud and hurtful. It
encourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre
scribe for a disease according to its name. There is no
lire of genuine distinction between continued fevers,
that can be relied on. They run Insensibly into each
ether, oven the m->st dissimilar of them, and are often
traceable to the same cause.”
The above is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance
and 1 would impreu oil your minds the folly of hunting
up or tronbling youisclf about a “name;” if you have
fever, trout it it once ss hereafter directed, ami you
will (it well instead of any distinctcharacter being devel
oped, so ns to be properly named by the most scientific.
This assertion Is no hypothesis bused on closet specula-
Hons or visions of mind, but on experience at the bed
side of tlio sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands of cases
(by myself and others) under a great variety of cir
eumstances, seasons and climates. Hear this in mind,
and troat at once without regard to name., and rest
assured you will soon be freed from all dread of linger
ing ami dangerous fevers. But as esses may have be
come developed before the “ Fluid” is given, either by
■ eglect, or under Home other treatment, I will describe
as briefly as possible the proper course to be pursued in
all of tlie most prominent fevers, though the “ Rules”
and “Synopsis” will be amply sufficient for all those
accustomed to attendance apon tho sick.
Allies important to be observed in all rases tn using the
Seyutive Electric Fluid.
Ist. it should bo given in three or ibnr times Its own
quantity of water, and may bo sweetened or not at
pleasure.
•id. Patients must bo free from all currents of air,
(though there should always bo froo ventilation iu the
sick room,) nor attempt to go about whllo under its in
fluence.
8)1. It must bo continued whenever tho fever subsides,
•r is evidently passing off; to be resumed when it
begins to rise again, should such be the case under any
alrcnmstances.
*th. When the fever begins to subside, patients must
be loft perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should
bot he questioned as to tlieir wants or feelings, nor
attempt to converse, read or take any exercise whatever,
Sill tlioir own natural feelings, independent of all extra
aeous influences, imluee. them to rise or speak; nor
should any conversation be allowed In their hearing, in
which they may feel more or loss interested, but bo left
quiet to all intents and purposes.
Sth. Fluids should be allowed, while giving it as
plentifully, and as long as the patient desires and no
longer; they may consist of cold water, mucilaginous
Arink , '„ lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, - either
•old or warm as parties may prefer or patients desire.
fitli. Should patients experience any oppression or
faintness while in the lying posture, so as to occasion a
koKtlossnes* after the fever lias passed off, or enough to
sreasion them to speak of.it, they should have a little
Wine, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade with a little
spirit, ginger, or some other stimulant; or the face and
breast may be bathed tn oold water; cither of which
will give immediate relief.
TABLE OF DOSES.
For children of one year or under, from S to 8 drops.
“ over 1 and under 2 years, “ 3to 15 “
“ “ 3 “ ft “ “ 12 to 80
“ “ ■* 10 “ “ 20 to 50 “
** “ 8 *’ 15 half to a teaspoonful.
All persons over fifteen considered as adults, for whom
a teaspoonful is a common dose. Old persons do not
require as much as young, or those in the prime of life;
aor females, as a general rule, os much as nmles.
There is no particular care necessary in giving It to
•hildron—- those of ten years of ago frequently having
taken full doses ; but for a little guide, 1 have given tho
above table, with the remark that, as a general rule,
sliildren require more than adults in proportion.
observing the above directions, the medicine will
he faund agreeable in all of its effects, tho expectations
•f the most sanguine realized, and many perfectly
astonished. My object in being thus particular is, that
the full benefit of the medicine may be obtained, and
ot on account of any actual necessity of such strict ob
servances.
liiltoua or Remittent Fever,
dive a teasponftil of “Fluid” (see rule L;) onco In
tei) hours, till the fever is evidently passing off: this
•.institutes the whole treatment in all simple cases of
fever, with such observances a* are set forth in the
• Rules.” But should there be prominent local symp
toms, or known local ex ; ting causos, they should be
attended to st once, and whilo giving the “ Fluid.”
Bee Synopsis.
Jf in any case the bowels are particularly constipated
•r eonflned, give a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with tho
Irst portion; they must bo opened or the fever may rise
ttfuin.
Where the fever Is very high, pulse running 110 or
upwards, and the patient is not particularly susceptible
to the influence of medicine—not easily operated on by
medicine generally—a double dose, or two teaspoonsful
any be given at first with advantage, and even repeated
In two hootv—if it—the pulse—has not been so ftenej,
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 these difficult cam's, will afford relief and aid
tbs medicine much in taking effect.
Congestive Ftrer.
Hive two teaspoonsful and repeat every iwo hours till
the pulse beoomvs more full and soft, then only a ten
■poonfUl, to be discontinued as the fever subside!. As
♦he bowels are generally confined, and it is frequently
very difficult to get medicine to operate in this disease
•o time should be lost to get them open, give some active
•athartle with the “Fluid” and repent as may be ncees-
SWy till it operates; enemas (injections! may also be
■-d to advantage; alto, mustard to the extremities, or
•Mellon (rubblag) with the hands or flannel; also, cold
application* to tha head. Quinine may be added to the
• Fluid” If thooght advisable. See Synopsis.
Ktrrens Fewer, Typhus, Ship and Putrid
• or Spotted Fever.
At lhc*e fbvers are all of one character, differing
JktjulF l degree, being all of a low grade, the pulro
WHtel and wiry, with a general great depression, there i.
no p tee Heal nee In separating them—at least so far as
•iv teteteient it concerned. In these tow fevers, when
Billy developed, a little patience will be required; still
A.-apateflvely Nttie, as they frequently run weeks under
wdßmen Jreetmcnt. while with this buta few days
Wly neeedfcsw at longest to establish a permanent
wdklMeaee.
The Mteul should h* eommeaced—which may
Vnraedlately fellow any other without detriment—with
a teaep afel of “ Fluid” every two hours, till the pulse
•teprai, fuller or larger in volume, then to be continued
te d* te eight boar* till t*e fever entirely subsides
In bad cases, from three to five grains each of quinine I
and capsicum (Cayenne |h p[icr) or sonic tome ami stimu
lant (nee auxiliaries; should bo added to each dose. The
bowels should be kept gently open, and small portions i
of some hepatic should be giveu occasionally, even j
though the bowels should be very loose. The patient
should be sustained by nourishing and luucilagenous j
drinks—eucb os are iu common use in such cases.— |
Where tho skin Is very dry, sponging the surface as di
ructed in bilious fever, will he loiind advantageous.
Tonics should be used during convalescence, in all cases i
which have become reduced.
Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lung
or Winter Fever.
Give a teaspoonful of the “Fluid” every two horn a,
with a wiuo-gbuwful ofu strong decoction of hone vet; or
half the quantity may be given every hour till relieved,
then, at longer intervals, sny once in six or eight hours.
Tho boneset tea should be given warm till tlio violent
symptoms are allayed, or the patient is relieved; then
cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, or something of
tho kind, to be applied over the seat of pain; keep tho
bowels gently open.
Variola, Varioloid, Rubeola and Scarla
tina; or Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles,
and Scarlet Fever.
As all of these diseases are attended with fever, which
in fact is the most prominent symptom, tlio treatment
differs hue little from that of common fevers. Remember
never wait to learn tlio “nome,” whether it is one or the
other, or neither, as they nil commence with fever, but
treat It at once; govern the fever ami there will bo no
trouble; there will bo but little, erupt,ion even in small
pox. This, to most minds, is u new idea, and doubtless
will be regarded witli ridicule by many. 1 nevertheless
boldly make the assertion, that small pox, If treated ;ui
1 direct, will be. cut chart; iitteuiled with but little erup
tion ; little or no pitting, and that there is no necessity of
its running its ordinary course. On this I will stake
not only my reputation, but ail that 1 hold most dear;
besides, on this subject, 1 have good authority; that of
Prof. Watson, previously quoted, lie says, page 874;
“You limy abate the force ol’ the eruptive fever, and
keep down, it is believed, the number q/ the pustules by
spline purges, &c.” Here iN tlie admission that it may
be done. I nave not only proven it may be, but has
been dono in numerous cases that occurred on board
ship. 800 tlie account appended.
Give a teuspoonful or more, according to the urgency
of the case, with a dose of sails or castor oil; repeat the
Fluid once iu two hours if necessary, until the fever sub
sides—though one or two doses is genera ly sufficient;
but it should he given and repented sufficiently to keep
the fever under control. When tlie throat in affected,
any of tiie ordinary gargles may lie used, and the
surface bathed, as thought advisable.
In oue case, on the ship Duchess d'Orleans, the tongue
aud faucus were bo much swollen that the patient could
not swullow or speak, und he was cured by dropping tlio
Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till be could swullow,
when it was given in teaspoouful 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 alsmt twelve hours by tlio Fluid alone.—
Used to wet the throat frequently, it is doubtless the
best gargle in all such cases.
Puerperal or Childbed Fever.
This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming
malady to which tlio mother is liable, will yield to tiie
Negative Klectric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem
to be of little consequence. A single dose or two of a
teaspoouful. almost invariably giving entire anil per
manent relief; no alarm need be entertained, as the
Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should be re
peated as long as tho fever continues, n iu other cases.
The bowels oi course should lie attended to.
In connection with this subject, I cannot refrain from
making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by
tiie ladies, will save them much pain and suffering. It
is to inform them of the happy effect of tlie Fluid iu
many of tlieir trials. In child-birth, its relaxing and
soothing effect deprives the labor of much of its pains
and difficulties; it must be 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 ; iu short, it is one of the most convenient and
effectual remedies for many of tho ills of females, if not
tlie most so of any medicine known, its effect is uniform,
relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability
and iritubility of tlie nervous as well as the 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 nso in so many cases.
Synopsia.
To avoid constant repetition, and condense the treat
ment as much as possible, 1 give under this bead general
directions for all cases. As the Negative Liectric Fluid
will change the condition called fever, or subduo and
control it under all circumstances, without regard to the
name it may be or ought to be called, it should be given
wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot bo ex
pected to control all organic or local causes, which,
when such exist, must lie removed in order to effect a
permanent cure.
When such indications occur in any case, tiiey shonld
lx) appropriate means, and these soliuld t>e given while
giviug 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, f call all else auxiliary treatment.
If the bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili
aries) with the first dose, or soon after, and should it
fail to operate ill due time, repeat the dose; if attended
with diarrhoea, give something known to bo good for
that complaint, though if caused by irritability, the
“Fluid” will soon relieve that condition; if severe local
pain or inflammation, apply sumo stimulating liuiuicut,
a mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of bitter herbs,
or, perhaps, cloths wet iu cold water, to the part; if
violent pain in tlie head, apply cold water, ice water,
if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe
the feet in hot water; if the fovor is very high, skin
dry and hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe tiie
whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature;
“the saline wash,” vinegar and water or spirits and
water, either will afford great relief and aid tho medi
cine ill taking effect, after whieli there will bo no trou
ble ; if the patient has been reduced or is much prostra
ted, give tonics aud stimulants, particularly iu low
fevers, in absence of fever or when indicated; also,
during convalescence, when the patient has become re
duced ; if there is nausea and vomiting, tlicit must be
allayed before tmy medicine will remain on tho stomach
to do any good; for this purpose I generally give some
gentle emetic to cleanse the stomach; warm water, if
given plentifully, will auswer every purpose; when the
stomach has settled, give the “ Fluid” aud a cathartic if
necessary; in short, treat all tlie prominent symptoms
as you would under any other circumstances, giviug tlie
“Fluid” at the same time as directed, mid success will
crown your efforts; indeed, you canuut realize it till you
have seen, and then you will be astonished at tlio ease
with which you can control all febrile excitement.
Auxiliaries.
I’arties may feel at a loss to know what is meant by
cathartics, Ac., as physicians are usually particular
about w hat is used. I have found no such necessity
when using the Fluid, and to lie fully understood by
all, I will name a tew of the different articles of medi
cine I have referred to, viz:—
Cathartic*. —Articles that purge or operate on the
bowels, such as castor oil, sails, senna, any of the roots
or lairks, and many pills, autibUious, Ac.; anything
known to be good for such purposes.
Ilepaties.— Anything known to act on the liver
particularly, portal circulation and secretions generally.
Any of the articles depended on by the different schools
for this purpose, will answer w hen usod in connection
with the “ Fluid” or while the system is under its in
fluence. Ami one may choose calomel—another, bluo
mass—tho third, podophyllin—the fourth, mandrake
root, and so on; each may take his choice and be suc
cessful.
Tonics.— Articles that give tone or strength, such
as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herb*. Bono
se- or tlioroughwort is one of the best used in fevers.
Astringent*.— Such as check the action of the
bowels. Laudanum and other preparations of opium are
used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents,
which have the effect.
Stimulant*. —Articles that raise or excite the
system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of tlie best;
ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., the essences are all more
or less stimulating. These are tlio only classes neo-sau
ry in treating fevers, though many other* are generally
used, but the Negative Klectric Fluid is a better “ dia
phoretic,*’ “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and
“ sedative” tlmn known in tho materia medico.
I shall not tax the reader with a long list of proofs,
depending mainly on the results of a trial, and will
only refer to oue instance of success, that on the
Pocket ship Duchess D'Orleans.
which cannot be classed among ordinary certificates:
We, the undersigned, certify to the following, viz—
We took passage ou tho packetsbip Duchess d'Orleans,
Capt Hutton, then lying in the port of Havre. France
and hound for New York, She sailed on the 9tli of Au
gust, 1861, with over a hundred souls on board, mostly
emigrants- A few days a tier leaving Havre, the small
[six broke out among the emigrants, Tiiey were oil
treated by the physician in charge, Dr. N. W.Seat, with
• new remedy ofhis ow n, which lie calls Negative Elec
trie Fluid, with which lie seemed to have entire control
over tho disease, arresting it in a few hours, and curing
in a very short time.
During tlie voyage, which lasted thirty-nine days,
there were about eighty cases of small pox. some fever,
Ac., and not a single death. Alt were cured with unu
sual promptness.
From what we saw during said passage, we are fully
convinced that the medicine usod by Dr. Seat on tbs oc
casion. possesses inestimable virtues. We never before
heard or read of febrile affections being controlled with
so much case, promptness and certainty, or so little
trouble to the nurse. A crowded ship, * long passage,
small pox and fever on board, and no t a death! The
fact speaks for itself.

Dear bir—Tlie public generally are fully aware of ike
thousands of remedies for Diseased Lungs, under the titles
of Sar.-apariHas. Fills, Flusters. Liniments, Ac., that are
daily brought te their notice through the newspapers by
way of advertisements. My object in writing this note
for publication, is to induce the public, or at least those
who are afflicted, to use oue that contains articles of
Real Vce in Pulmonary Disects . lam conscious that in
so doing. I am acting most mivrefesslounlly. and duroga
torily to th interests of Medical t eience and tlie regular
Practitioners of Mediciue. I rcfci to Woodman’s Clierry

This preparation has attained a wide celebrity from
the universal success which has attended its use. For
coughs, colds, and in fact, any pulmonary complaints,
this medicine, from its peculiar properties as a dissolve r.t
and its soothing |niwer to all ii : nations of the throat,
will probably lie preferred to any bthor offered to tlie
public. As nn appetizer, or dyspeptic remedy, it will
also lie found excellent, its uatuiul and genial warmth
keeping the digestive pow ers in proper tone.
Remember that this is the only Gough Medicine that
has stood the test of the medical fraternity. It is sanc
tioned by. approved of. and recommended by the lending
Physicians of New York city. Every botth is warranted
to give satisfaction or the money refunded. \Ve guaran

In thus formally announcing the Prospectus for tlw
Fourth Volume, wo liave hut a few short paragraph u
adu, sanguine in the belief tiiat, with the intelligent, in
dustrious patrons of progressive improvement in the
Agriculture, Mechanic Arts, Manufactures of the Haul

the Cotton Planter is its highest commendation.
1 n the first place, we remark to our friends and nates
that the Editor, Dr. Cloud, has again become the Publish

emphatically, that in future the Cotton Planter shall is

Flushed with victory in the magnificent Exhibition c!
Alabama’s Industry, as demonstrated in the triumphant
success of the first Annual Fair of the Alabama State
Agricultural Society, the Cotton Planter “ w ill take n
step backward” its progress is onward and upward to IF
highest niche of improvement.
It is hoped earnestly by the Editor and proprietor. :
by the members of the Society, that the Planters
Farmers, the Mechanics and Manufactures of Alabama,
will rally en masse to the support of Alabama’s only in

bama State Agricultural Society, that its efficiency n..0
be unfettered in the great work of developing the im
measurable resources of the Keystone Slate of the Sou;!
