Kemarks on Keven in General 1
On I Ids subject I wish to lie fully understood. Ily the
mm “levers,” I comprehend nil febrile affections to
which the human frame is subject, Inrludliig small pox
anil other eruptive fevers; Imt as they arise by a great
variety of causes, and In quite dissimilar constitutions
and habile, they of course differ considerably in llielr
development mid exhibit a variety of forma or types;
yet oil are distinguished by tloi same general character*
idle* that ol uudue excitement in tie* circulatory and
nervous systems- inducing more or less unnatural free
gurney lu the pulse, shush of heat, dryness of tho akin,
debility, Ac.
to show tlidt I am hot wholly ulone In Go- opinion I
•trance, 1 quote front Ihe celelirafed Trof. T. Watson,
; ivlug's College, Condon, whoso work on the “ I'riuei
l ic- and Practice ol Tliysie” Is a text book hi many of
tig medical colleges, aud consequently tbnularet mithtrity.
on page 834, he aaya:—"We hear ronliiuiall., bolh in

Tho above Is a great fact, one uoithy of remembrance
anil 1 would impress on your minds the filly of hunting
up or troubling yourself about a •’ name;’ If you have

As thste fvi- are all of one character, differing
mainly In degree, being all of a low grade, the pulse
.mail and wiry, with a general great depression, there is
r.o pra-'tioal u*e in separating them—at least ao fin as
iu- treatment l* coucerneil. lu these low fevera, when
tally developed, a little patience will be required; still
comparatively little, as they frequently t un weeks under
lha common treatment, while with this hut a few days
*4ll be necessary at longest lo antahlbh a permanent

iaiwols should lie kept gently open, and small portions
of some htj/islK s.ionld bo given occasionally, even
though the bowels should ho very loose. The patient
should be isiistaiuwl by nourishing and miicilagonous
drinks—midi a* are in common u-<- In sueli case*.-*

Gives teaspoon lul of tho “ Fluid” every two hours,
with a wine-glassful of a wtiung decoction of houeset; or
half the quantity may be given every hour till relieved,
then, at longer intervals, way once in six or eight hours.
Tile boueset tea should be given warm till the violent
symptoms are allayed, or the patient is relieved; then
cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, or something of
the kind, to be applied over the seat of pain; keep the
1 rowels gently open.
Variola, Varioloid, Rubeola uml Scarla
tinal or Small l*oi, Varioloid, Measles,
and Scarlet Fever.
As all of these diseases are attended with fever, which
in fact is the most prominent symptom, the treatment
differs hue little from that of common fevers. Keiuemher
never wait to learn the “ music, ” whether it is one or the
other, or neither, us they ull commence ivtlh J'trrr, hut
treat it at once; govern the fever and there will hi’ no
trouble; there will he hut little e.ruptum even in ► mull
|M>x. This, to most lqiuds, is a lew klea, and doubtless
will be regal'led with ridicule liy many. 1 nevertheless
boldly make the assertion, that small pox, if treated us
I direct, will O'cut short; attended with Imt little erup
tion ; little or no pitting, and that there is no uea'ssity of
its running its ordinary course. On this I will stake
not only my reputation, but a.I that 1 hold most dear;
besides, on this subject, 1 have good authority; that of
Trof. Watson, previously quoted. lie says, largo 874:
” You may alsite the force of the eruptive lever, and
keep down, it is believed, the nundur oj tho pustulet by
spline purges, Ac.'’ Here i* the admission mat it may
he done. I nave not only proven it may be, but has
been done in ’liimeluus cases that occurred on board
shiii. See the account appended.
(live it teuspoonful or more, according lo the urgency
of the case, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat the
Fluid once in t wo hours if necessary, until the feversub
siile*—though one or two doses is genera ly sutticieirt;
hut It should be given and repeated sufficiently to keep
the fever under control. W lien the throat is affected,
any of the ordinary gargles may be used, and the
surface bathed, as thought advisable.
In one case, on tho ship Duchessd’Orleans, the tongue
ami sauces were so much swollen that the patient could
not swallow or speak, and he was cured by dropping the
Fluid ou Iris tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow,
w licit it was giveu in teaspooul'ul doses every hour, till
all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of
tlie throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour
ishment in about twelve hours by the Fluid alone. —
lined to wet the throat frequently, it is doubtless the
bed //aryle in all such eases.
f'tiei-]>crnl or Childbed Fever.
This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming
malady to which the mother is liable, will yield to the
Negativelilectric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem
to be of lit lie consequence. A single dose or two of a
teuspoonful. almost invariably giving entire and per
nianeiit relief; no alarm need be entertained, as the
Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should ho re
peMed as long as the fever continues, us in other cases.
T lie bowels of course should he attended to.
In connection with this subject, I cannot refrain from
making a low general remarks, whicli, if regarded by
the Indies, will save them much puili aud suffering. It
is to inform them of the happy effect of tint Fluid in
many of their trials, in child-birth, its relaxing and
sootliftig effect deprives the labor of much of its pains
slid difficulties: it must bo tried to be appreciated.—
Tsinful menstruation will be relieved at once l.y a com
mon dose and retiring. Restlessness, nervous irritability,
ora cold token at a delicate time, Is easily relieved by
itsuse: in short, ft is one of the most convenient and
effectual remedies for many of tho ills of females, if not
ihe most so of any medicine known. Its effect is uniform,
relaxing the whole system, removing all oxcitubility
and iritability of the nervous us well us the circulatory.
It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and
quiet the system so that one can sleep naturally aud
healthy ; Iren re its use lu so many eases.
Synopsis.
To avoid constant repetition, and condense the treat
ment as much as possible, 1 give tinder this head general
directionsfoi all cases. As the Negative Blectric Fluid
will change the condition called fever, or subdue aud
control it under all circumstances, without regard to the
name it may be or ought to he called, it should be given
wherever or whenever it exists; yet it. cannot be ec
purted to control alt organic or local causes, which,
when such exist, must he removed in order to effect a
permanent cure.
When such hull callous occur ill any case. I hey should
be appropriate means, and these soliuld Ire given while
giving the *• Fluid,” and in cotmscUou with it, when
occasion requires, as they w ill then more readily act.
producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary
time will then bo lost As the •,Fluid” alone will sute
duo the fever, I call all else auxiliary treatment.
It the bowels ora costive, given cathartic (sec auxili
aries) with the first dose, or soon after, uml should it
toil to operate in due time, re|>eut tho dose; if attended
with diarrhora, give something known to he good for
that complaint, though if causod by irritability, the
•* Fluid” v> iu .won relievo that condition; if severe local
pain or infiammution, apply some stimulating liniment,
a mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of bitter herbs,
or, perhaps, cloths wot iu cold water, to the part; if
violent paiu in tho head, apply cold water, ice water,
If convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe
„.!i> feet in hot water; if tlie fever is very high, skin
dry and hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe the
whole surface writh water ut aa agreeable temperature;
“the sallao wash,” vinegar and water or spirits and
water, either will afford great relief and aid the medi
cine In taking effect, after which there will be no troll
'd” • if ‘he patient lias beeu reduced or is much prostra
ted. give tonics and stimulants, particularly in low
fevers, ill absence of fever or when indicated: also,
during convalescence, when the patient lias become re
duced ; if there is naiH u and vomiting, that must be
allayed before any medicine will remain ou 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 lias settled, give tlie - Fluid” and a cathartic if
necessary : in short, treat nil the prominent symptom*
as you would under any other circumstances, giving the
“ Fluid ’at the same time as directed, and success will
crow 11 your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till you
havo seen, aud then you will bo ostouished at the ease
with which you can control all febrile excitement.
Auxiliaries.
Turtles may feel at a loss to know wlmt is meant by
cathartics. Ac., as physicians are usually particular
about what is used. I have found no elicit necessity
when using the Fluid, nml to lie fully understood by
all, 1 will name a lew of tho different articb-s of medi
cine 1 have referred to, viz:—
t'u< hurtles.—Articles that purge or operate on the
bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots
or hulks, ami many pills, ainibilious, Ac.; anything
known to lie good for such purposes.
Hepatlcs.—Anything known to act on tlie liver
(■articular!}’, portal circulation mid secretions generally.
Any Ol (lie articles depended on by the different schools
for tlii* purpose, w ill answer when used in connection
with the - Fluid” or while the system is under its in-
Hnonce. And one may choose calomel—another, blue
mass—tlie third, podophyllln—the fourth, mandrake
root, and so on: each may take Ids choice and be suc
cessful.
Tunica. —Article* that give tone or strength, such
as quinine, various barks, t oots ami hitter herbs. Itone
aei or thoroughwort is one of the best used in fevers.
Astringents.—Such as chock tho action of tho
bowels. Laudanum and other preparations of opium are
used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents,
which have the effect.
St iiniilunta.—Articles that raise or excite the
system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is ouo of tlie best;
ginger, spirits,, tiurtshorn. Ac., the essences are all more
or less stimulating. Those are the only classes necessa
ry iu treating fevers, though many others are generally
used, but the Negative Kleotric Fluid is a better “ dia
phoretic.” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and
“sedative” than known in the materia medial.
1 shall not tax the render with u long list of proofs,
depending mainly on the results of a trial, ami w ill
only refer to one initanee of success, that on tlie
Packetsltlp Duchess D'Orleana.

the universal ruccesi which bus attended its use. For
coughs, colds, and in fact, any pulmonary complaints

and its soothing power to all irritations of the throat,
will probably ho preferred to any other offered to the
publle. As an appetizer, or dy-peptle remedy, it will
also be found excellent, its natural and genial warmth
keeping the digestive powers in proper tone.
Remember that. this h the only Cough Medicine that
has stood tlis test of the medical fraternity. It is sanc

Physicians of New York city, livery bottle is warranted
