NEGATIVE ELECTRIC FLUID, Prepared by N. W. Sent, M. U. treasons why it should be used instead of any other treat ment In all Febrile Affections: 1 at.—Kconniny of Time.—As only one-ievenlh of t lie ordinary time is required to offect a cure. Rdeoßconomy of Money. —As it e sts but one dollar. 3rd.—Economy of Feeling— As it euves tho suffering of a long sickness and tlie consequent treat moot; the annoyance of taking nauseating doses of toodislha, their disagreeable operation, and the palu of -long sonflnement; but little of the fluid being necessary, and that pleasant in its effects. 4th.—Economy of Thought. —As when known, it will ruutove all dread and anxiety at present existing, respecting febrile affections; particularly while a dear friend is sick. sth.—Economy of Health.— As the system Is not reduced, and consequently racked; nor U the fever sutijectto bo followed by chronic disease. 6 th.—Economy of Life.—-As the euro is effected before anil without reducing tho patient, consequently removing, In acorrosponding degree, all danger of a fatal termination. Other reasons might be added, but these are doomed sufficient to satisfy all classes and persons in all condi tions of life. Tlie above reasons are more particularly applicable to llie immediate treatment on the lirst attack, hut will apply with equal force to cases which have been subject ed to or have become reduced, corresponding of course to tho nature of the case at the time it is tirHt adminis tered. As this remedy gives so prompt, effectual and perma nent relief, in all ordinary cases, when used soon alter tlie attack, persons cun scarcely realize that they had been really much sick, and very naturally conclude th y Were not attacked with fever, and if so, ‘’it was trifling —a little cold, which gave alarm—it could have been nothing of censcquencc—it would have passed off with out anything—that medicine had noeffect.” The general impression on the subject of fever is such, that thoughts dot unlike tho above follow the cure of a common caeo as naturally as men think at all; nrnl it is not until the individual has witnessed many cases that lie can fully realize the truth; and even then he may conclude them oil Very ttitling cases, which would have readily yielded • > any simple medicine, yet persons, though tiiey have been I tills successful in perhaps hundreds of cases, must *pe<U that there wilt cases occur where there is some ergsnic or local cause so great us to require particular attention, or though success:ul in reducing the fever, ft will again rise as the influence of the “ fluid” passes off, as tho exciting cause may still exist. It is to guard against disappointment in suen cases tiiat 1 have given and frequently refer to what, 1 luive called a “ synopsis.” Remarks on Fewer* In General’ On this subject 1 wish to be fully understood, lly tho term “fevers,” I Comprehend all febrile affections to Which the human frame is subject, including small pox and other eruptive fevers; but as they arise by a great variety of causes, and in quite dissimilar constitutions and habits, they of course differ considerably in their development and exhibit a variety of forms or types; Vet all are distinguished by the same general character istics—that of undue excitement in ths circulatory and nervous systems—inducing more or less unnatural fro 3uency in the pulse, sense of heat, dryness of tlie skin, ebllity, Ac. To show that I ant not wholly alone In the opinion I advance, I quote from tho celebrated Prof. T. Watson, • f King’s College, London, whose work on the “ Princi ple* anil Practice of Physic” is a text book in many of our medical colleges, and consequently standard authority. fin p.ige R 34, lie says:—“We hear continunlh, both in and out of thoAirolessiou, different species of fever spo ken of. By Tlie public, Typhus Fever, Drain Fever, Bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever, Ac. And systematic writers are to the full as particular: Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Uastro-Enteric, and SO forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, I am persuaded that the effect upon tlie mind of all this sub-division, is bad ami hurtful. It encourages ft disposition, already too prevalent, to pre scribe for a disease according to its name. There is no line of genuine distinction between continued fevers, lliat can be relied on. They run insensibly into each •ther, evun tho most dissimilar of them, and are often brooeable to the same cause.” The above is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance and 1 would imprest on your ntlnds tlie folly of hunting np or troubling yourself about a “ name;” if you have fever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and you mill lx well instead of any distiuetcharacter being devel oped, so as to be properly named by tlie most scientific. This assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula ttuns or visions of uiiud, but ou experience at the bed side of tlie sick, In hundreds, aye, thousands of cases fby myself stud others) under a great variety of cir •umstauces, seasons aud climates. Bear this in mind, and treat at once without regard to name, ami rest assured you will soon be freed from all dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers. But as cases may have lie •outo developed before tho “ Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under some other treatment, 1 will describe as briefly as possible the proper course to lie pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though tlie “ Rules” and “ Synopsis” will be amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon the sick.

Should patients experience any oppression or fkiutness while in tho lying posture, so as to occasion a restlessness after tlie fever has passed off, or enough to •eoasion them to speak of it, they should have a little wine, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade with a little spirit, giuger, or some other stimulant; or the fuoe and breast may l>o bathed in cold wator; either of which Will give immediate relief.

There is no particular care necessary in giving it to •hildreii —thoso of ten years of age frequently having taken full doses; but for n little guide, I have given the above table, with the remark that, as a general rule, •hlldrrti require more than adults iu proportion. lly observing the above directions, the medicine will be found agreeable In all of its effects, tbe expectations •f the most sanguine realized, aud many perfectly astonished. My object in being tbps particular is, that She full benefit of the medicine umy be obtained, ami •ot on accouut of any actual necessity of such strict ob servances.

If iu any case the bowels are particularly constipated sr eoutined, give a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the irst portion; they must be opened or the fever may rise Ogaiu. Where the fever is very high, pulse running 110 or •pwards. and the patient is not particularly susceptible tii the influence of medicine—not easily operated on by aiedicißs generally—a douole dose, or two toaspoousful siay be given at flrst with advantage, and even repeated in two hours —if it—tho pulse—lias not been so/isned, thus showing the medicine has taken effect. Bathing the surface with water at an agreeable temperature, the aaliuc wash, vinegar or spirits and wator, in these difficult cases, will afford relief and aid the medicine much in takiug effect. Congestive Fever. dive two teaspoonsful and repeat every two hours till the puls. becomes more full and soft, then only a tes tpoOnful, to be discontinued as the fever mil is idee As tha bowels are generally confined, and it is frequently very difficult to get medicine to operate in thlv disease, ■o time should be lost to get them open, give some active Mlharti. with the “Fluid” and repeat as may be neces sary Ull it operates; enemas (injections) may also be •veil to advantage: also, mustard to the extremities, or friotloa (rubbing) with the hands or flannel; also, cold applications to tl\ head.

As these fbvers are all of one character, differing •ai nly ia degree, being all of a low grade, the pulse •mall and wiry, with a general great depression, there is ■n pracfisal use in separating them—at least so far as ■iv treatment is concerned. In these low fevers, when fully developed, a little patience will be required; still •dtapaeatlvsly little, ss they frequently run weeks under tha aomman treatment, while with this but a few davs wil! I* ntottsary at longest to establish a permanent Wmvutessonee.

In bad casus, from three to five grains ouch of quinine and capsicum (Cayenne pepper) or some tonic and stimu lant (.aoe auxiliaries) should be added to each done. The bowels should ho kept gently open, and small portions of some lutp*die should bo given occasionally, even though the liowols should be very loose. The patient should he sustained by nourishing and luucilugenous drink* —-such as are iu common use iu such cases.— Where the skin is very dry, sponging the suriace us di rected in bilious fever, will be found advantageous. Tonics should be used during convalescence, iu all cases which luive become reduced. l J iicumou!a, Tyjihwld Pneumonia, Lung or Winter Fever. Give a teaspoonful of the “ Fluid” every two hours, with a wine-glassful of a strong decoction of boneset; or half tlie quantity may be given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say once iu six or eight hours. Tho boneset tea should be given warm till tbe violent symptoms are allayed, or tbe patient is relieved ; then cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, or something of the kind, to bo applied over the 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 aro attended with fever, which in lact is tlie most prominent symptom, tlie treatment differs hue little from that of common fevers. Remember never wait to learn the “name,” whether it is ouo or the other, or neither, as they all commence with fever, but treat it at once; govern the fever nml there will be lio trouble; there will be but little eruption even iu small pox. This, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubtless will be regarded with ridicule by many. 1 nevertheless boldly make the assertion, that small pox, if treated as 1 direct, will be, cut stun t ; attended with hut little erup tion; little or no pitting, and that there is no necessity of its running its ordinary course. On this I will slake not only my reputation, blit u.l tiiat 1 bold most dear; besides, ou this subject, 1 lmve good authority; that of Prof. Watson, previously quoted. He says, page 874: “You may abate tlie force of tlie eruptive fever, aud keep down, it is believed, the number of the. pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Here is tiic admission tiiat it may be done. I nave not only proven it may be, but has been done in numerous cases that occurred ou board ship. See the account appended. Givo a teaspoouful or more, according to the urgency or tho case, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat the Fluid once in two hours if necessary, until tlie fever sub sides—though one or two doses is genera ly sufficient; but it should be given and repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under control. When the throat is affected, any of tlie ordinary gargles may tie used, and tlie surface bathed, as thought advisable. Ju oue case, on tho ship Duchess d’Orleans, tlie tongue and faucus were so much swollen that tlie patient could not swallow or speuk. and lie was cured by dropping the Fluid ou his tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow, when it was given iu teaspoonful doses every hour, till all alarmiug symptoms disappeared. The swelling of the throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment in about twelve hours by tlie Fluid alone.— Used to wot the throat frequently, it is doubtless tlie best gargle in all such cases. Puerperal or Childbed Fever. This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming malady to which tlie mother is liable, will yield to tlie Negutive Electric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem to be of little consequence. A single dose or two of a tcaspoonful. almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no ulurm need be entertained, as tbo Fluid will urrest it iu a short time. It should be re peated as long as tho f-ver continues, as in other cases. The bowels of course should be attended to. In connection with this subject, I cannot refruiu from making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by the ladies, will save them much pain and suffering. It is to inform them of tlie happy effect of the F'luid 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 be appreciated.— I’aiuful menstruation will be relieved at once by u com mon dose and retiring. Restlessness, norvotis irritability, ora cold taken at a delicate time, is easily relieved by its use; in short, it is one of the most convenient aud effectual remedies for many of ths ills of females, if not the most HO ofauy medicine known. Its effect is uniform, relaxing tho whole system, removing all excitability aud iritability of tho nervous us well as the circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, hut it will sooth aud quiet the system so that one can sleep naturally and healthy; hence its use in bo many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense the treat ment as much as possible, I give under this head general directions for all cases. As the Negative Electric Fluid will change tho condition called fever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name it may bo or ought to he called, it should ho given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot be ex pected to control all organic or local causes, which, when such exist, must be removed in order to effoct a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any case, they should he appropriate rneaua, and these sohuld be given while giving the “Fluid,” and in connection with it, when occasion requires, as they will tlieu more readily act, producing more general effect, besides uo unnecessary time will then be lost. As the Fluid” alone will sub due the fever, I 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 oporato in duo time, repeat the dose; if attended with diarrhoea, givo something known to he 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 linimont, a mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of bitter herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet in cold water, to the part; if violent pain in the head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or soiuo cooling application, and bathe the feet in hot water; if the fever is very high, skin dry and hot, with great suffering, spongo or bathe the whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature; “the saline wash,” vinegar and water or spirits aud water, either will afford great relief and aid the medi cine in taking effect, after which there will bo no trou ble; if the patient has been reduced ur is much prostra ted, give tonics and 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, 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 tho stomach; warm water, if given plentifully, will answer every purpose; when tlie stomach has settled, give the “ Fluid” and a cathartic if necessary; in short, treat all the prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giving tlie “Fluid” at the same time as directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till you have seen, and then you will he astonished at tlie ease with which you can control all febrile excitement. Auxiliaries. Parties may feel at a lues to know what is meant by cathartics, Ac., as physicians aro usually particular about what is used, l have found uo such necessity’ when using the Fluid, and to be fully understood liy all, 1 will name a tew of the different articles of medi cine 1 have referred to, viz:— Cat iiart tea.—Articles that purge or operate on the bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, uuy of the roots or barks, and many pills, antibilious, Ac.; anything known to bo 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 for this purpose, will answer when used iu connection with the “ Fluid” or while the system is under its in fluence. And one may choose calomel—another, blue muss—the third, podophyllin—the fourth, mandrake root., and so on; each may take his choice and be suc cessful. Tonic#.—Articles that give tone or strength, such as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. Hone set or thoroughwort is one of the best used in fevers. Astringents.—Such as check the action of tho bow els. Laudanum aud other preparations of opium are used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents, which have the 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. Those are the only classes necessa ry in treating fevers, though many others are generally used, but the Negative Electric Fluid is a better “ dia phoretic,” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and “sedative” than known in the matm'a ninfini. I shall not tax the reader with a long list of proofs, depending mainly on tho results of a trial, ami will only refer to one instance of success, that on the Packetalitp Duclicss D'Orlean*. which cannot be classed among ordinary certificates: We, the undersigned, certify to the following, viz We took passage on the packetslilp Duchess d'Orleans Capt Hutton, then lying in the port of Havre, France and bound for New York. Mie sailed on the oth 0 f Au gust, 11*51, with over a hundred souls on hoard, mostlv emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, the small pox broke out among the emigrants. They were all treated by the physician in charge, Dr. N. W. Scat, with anew remedy of his own, which lie calls Negative Klec tric Fluid, with which he seemed to have entire control over the disease, arresting it iu a few hours, and curing in a very short time. During the voyage, which lasted thirty-nine days, there were about eighty cases of small pox. some fever, Ac., and not a single death. All were cured with unu sual promptness. From what we saw during said passage, we arc fully convinced that the inediciuo used by Dr. Seat on the oc casion, possesses inestimable virtues. We never before heard or read of febrile affections being controlled with so much ease, promptness and certainty, or so little trouble to the nurse. A crowded ship, a long passage, small pox and fever on board, and wot a death! The fact speaks for itself. Signed, E. P. Fabri, 84 Pearl street, New York. E.G. Fabri, “ “ “ “ J, A.
