As all oi these diseases are attended with favor, which

differs hue little from that of common fevers, llerneliiber
never wsit to learn the “name,” whether It in one or the
oilier, of neither, as they id! commence with Jeter, Imt
tiaut it nt once; govern the lever and then) will bo no
trouble; there will he hut tittle er upturn even in small
pox. This, to most minds, is a now idea, and doubtless
will tiu regarded with ridicule by many. I nevertheless
boldly make tin; assertion, tlint small pox, if treated us
1 direct, will lie cut short; attended with but little etu)e
lion; little or no pitting, iinil flint there is no necessity of
its running its ordinary course. On this f will slake
not only my reputation, Imt all that I hold most dear;
beai.ii.. on this subject, 1 iuivo good authority; that ol
Prof. Vi atsou, previously quoted. Hu says, page 874:
•• Foil uiay abate the fofre of the eruptive fever, nnd
keep down, it is believed, the tt utAbrr of the puetuleA liy
spliiie purges, Ac.” Here Is the admission that it may
be doll". 1 nave uot only proven it t nay he, hut has
Iwv. done in numerous eases that occurred oil hoard

Oivo h toaspiHiiitul or more, according to tlio urgency
oi the cive, with a dose of suits or castor oil; repeat the
Fluid ouco In tivo hours if necessary, until the fever sub
side#—though one or two doses is generally sufficient;
liut it should lie given and repeated sufficiently to keep
the fever under control. When the throat is uffected,
any of the ordinary gargles may be used, and Ihe
purface bathed, as thought advisable.
In one case, on the ship Duchess d’Orleans, the tongue
nml fiiucus were so much swollen that the patient could
not swallow or speak, nud he was cured hy dropping the
Fluid on liin tongue, drop hy drop, till im could swallow,
when it was given 111 letispooul'ul doses every hour, till
sli alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of
the throat whs reduced so us to enable him to take nour
ishment iu about twelve hours by the Fluid alone.—
liked to wot tho throat frequently, it is doubtless the
best gargle, in all snob cases.
Puerperal ox- Cliildbetl Fever.
This heretoliiru painful, dangerous and alarming
malady to which tho mother is liable, will yield to the
Negative Hlectric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem
to lie of little consequence. A single dose or two of a
teaspoontul. almost invariably giving ell tire and per
manent relief; no hluiiii need lie entertained, as tbo
Fluid will arrest it in a short lime, it should lie re
peated as long us the fever continues, 11s iu other cases.
Tho li'iwels of course should bo attended to.
In connection with this subject, 1 cannot refrain from
oinking a few general remarks, which, if regarded hy
Hie ladies, will save them much pain uud suffering. It
is to inform l item of tho happy effect of the Fluid iu
many of their trials. In child-birth, its relaxing and
soothing effect deprives the labor of much ol’ its pains
and difficulties; it must bo tried to lie appreciated.—
Tuiulul menstruation will bo relieved at ouce by a com
mon dose and retiring. Restlessness, nervous irritability,
or a cold taken at a delicate time, is easily relieved by
its use; in short, it is one of the most convenientand
effectual remedies for many of the ills of females, if uot
the most, so of any medicine knowu. ]is effect is uniform,
relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability
nml irltability of the nervous us well as tho circulatory.
It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and
quiet tile system so ttint 0110 can sloop naturally and
healthy ; hence Its use iu so mauy cases.
Synopsis.
To avoid constant repetition, and cuudeu.se the treat
ment as much as possible, 1 give under this head general
directions for all Clues. As tho Negative hlectric Fluid
will change tlio condition called level, ,r subdue uud
ooutrol it under nil circumstances, without regard to tlio
name it may hsor ought to he called, it should lie given
wherever or whenever it exists; yet. it cannot bo ex
pected to control ail organic or local causes, wltich,
when *ucli exist, must he removed in order to effect a
permanent cure.
t\ lieu such indications occur in any case, they should
be appropriate limans, slid these soliulii be given while
giving the “ Fluid.” aud iu connection with it, nlieu
occasion requires, as they w ill then more readily act,
pi'iduciiig more general effect, besides no unnecessary
time will then be lost As the Fluid” alone will side
due the fever, I call all else auxiliary treatment.
if tlio bowels are costive, give a cathartic (Nee auxili
aries 1 with the first dose, or soon after, and should i'.
fall to operate in due time, repeat the dose; if attended
with diarrhoea, give something known to he good for
that complaint, though if caused hy irritability, the
“ Fluid” will soon relieve that condition; if severe local
piu or intlaiuuiation, apply some stimulating liuimont,
a mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations us bitter herbs,
or, perhaps, cloths wot iu cold water, to the part; if
violent puiu in tlio head, apply cold water, ice water,
if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe
the teat in hot water; if the fever is very high, skin
dry nnd hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe the
whole surface with water nt an agreeable temperature;
“tbe saline wash,” vinegar and water or spirits uud
water, either will ullord great relief and aid the medi
cine lu taking effect, alter which there will he no trou
ble ; if the patient lias been reduced or is much prostra
ted, give tonics aud stimulants, particularly in low
feveis, iu absence of fever or when indicated; also,
during convalescence, when the patient has become re
duced ; if there is uuuHea aud vomiting, that must be
allayed before any medicine w ill remain on the stomach
to do auy good; tor this purpose 1 generally give somo
gentle emetic to cleanse the stomach; warm water, if
given plentifully, will answer every purpose; when the
stomach has settled, give the “ Fluid” and a cathartic if
necessary; in short, treat all the prominent symptoms
us you would under any other cireuuistauces, giving the
“Fluid” at tho same time ss directed, aud success will
crown your efforts; Indeed, you cannot realixo it till you
have seen, aud then you will bo astouishod nt the case
with which you can control all febrile excitomnm.

Pollies may tool at A loss to know H hat is meant ly
cathartics, Ac., as physicians are usually particular
about wliat is used. 1 have Sound u<> such uccessity
whan using the Fluid, aud to he fully understood by
all, l will name a tew of the different articles of medi
cine 1 have referred to, Tiz.: —
Cat liar I tea.—Articles that purge or operate on the
bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, nuy of the roots
or harks, and many pills, antihilions, Ac.; anything
kuuwn to be good for such purposes.
Hepatic a.—Anything known to act ou the liver
isu'tkndarly, portal circulation auil secretions generally.
Any of the articles depended on hy 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 may choose calomel—another, blue
mass- the third, podophyllln—the fourth, mandrake
root, and so on; each may take his choice and he suc
cessful.
Tonics. Articles that give tone or strength, suck
as quinine, various luuks, roots and hitter lierhs. Hone
set or thoroughwort fs one of the best used in fevers.
Asti logout a.—Such as check the action of the
bow els. Isutdanuiii ami other preparations of opium are
used; also, many mixtures, not properly, astringents,
which have the effect.
Stimulants.—Articles that raise or .■> t'i„
system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepnerT Is one of the oest;
ginger, spirits, hartshorn, a,., ,ne c.-seures are all more
or less stimulating. Those are the only classes necessa
ry in treating levers, though many others are generally
used, hut the Negative Electric Fluid is a hotter “dia
phoretic,’’ ••anodyne.” “diuretic,” •• relaxant” and
“sedative” titan known in the mulm'a nmlint.

Doiu- Sir—The public generally are fully aware of the
thousands of rmnediesfor Diseased bungs, under the title*
of Sarsaparilla*, Pills, Plasters, Liniment*, Ac., that ate
daily brought lo their notice through tlie newspapers by
way of advertisements. My object in writing this note
for publicatiou, is to induce the public, or at least those
who are atltioted, lo use oue that contains articles of
Ifenl {> in I‘ulmimari/ J/imut-’s. 1 .tm conscious that in
o doing. I ar .'.cling most liiiprol'essionaily.und dcroga
torily to tin* interests of Medical Science and the regular
Practitioners of Medicine. Ir> ~-r to Woodman's •Cherry
Expectorant, which i* a scientilie remedy that 1 lmm
used with more success than any of the ’usual prescrip
tions used by Physlcluus.

0. 0. YVoopman—Dear Sir; I have given your Cherry
•’ ‘lactorant a lair trial and am well pleased with its ef
fect*; better than any other article 1 ever met with. I
would lie pleased to have you send me half a dosten bot
tles by the bearer. Respectfully.
W. M. Mason, M. and,
This preparation has attained a wide celebrity from
th universal success which has attended its use. For
coughs, eolds. and in fact, any pulmonary complaints,
this medicine, from it- pern liar properties as a dissolvent
and its soothing jsiwer to ail irritations of the throat,
will probably be preferred to any other offered to the
public. As all appetizer, or dyspeptic remedy, it will
also lie found excellent, its natural and genial warmth
kee|iing the digestive powers in ptoper tone.
Remember that this is the only Hough Medicine that
lia* stood the test of the me. Mini fraternity. It Is sanc
tioned by, approved of, and reeoinmeuded by tlie leading
Physicians of New York city. Kvi ry bottle Is warranted
to give satisfaction or tlie money refunded. We guaran
tee Kto lie better than any Cherry Pectoral, Cod I.iver
Oil. or anything else now extant.

In tlie first place, we remark to our friends and mute:
that tlie Editor, Dr. Cloud, has again become the PiiblL-L

emphatically, that iu future the Cotton Planter dull,
