. Oil this subject 1 wish to he fully understood, ily the
ii,rui “fevers,'’ 1 comprehend all febrile affections to
which the human frame is subject, including small pox
and other eruptive fevers; but as they aiise by a great
variety of causes, and in quite diesiiuilar cons! it miens
an.l habits, they of course differ con-nlerably in their
•I- leiopment and exhibit a variety , i lerms or tyqMis;
yet all are distinguish’ I by the same gciH-raJ character
istics- that ill niniue excitement in die circulatory and
nmous systems —inducing more or le-s unnatural fre
quency in tlio pulse, seiisu of heat, dryuoss of the skin,
debility, Ac.
To show that I am not wholly alone in the opinion 1
ndtuuce, 1 quote from tbo celebrated Prut. T. Watson,
King's College, London, whose work on the •• i'riuci
l-ies and Practice of Physic” Is a text book in many of
no medical colleges, and consequently isbim/tininulhorilg.
in ptgo 88t, he says:—“Wo lour cmilmuall., hwih in

The above Is a groat fact, one worthy of i-eiuetulirHuce
”.ud I would impress On your minds the fully of hunting
up or troubling you self about a “ inline;’ if you have
lever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and yon
i l’itl l.e wiU instead of any distinctclmracter being devel
uiiud, so as to be properly named by the most scientific,
fids assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula
tion* or visions of rniud, but on experience at the bed

myself and others) under a great variety of cir
cumstances, seasons aud climate". Hear this in mind,
aud treat at once without regard to o".me, and rest
assured you will soon ho freed from all dread of linger

Kalts important to be observed in all discs in using the
Negative Electric Fluid.
Ist. It should be given in three or four limes its own
quantity of water, und mny he sweetened or not at
pleasure.
id. Patients must be free from all currents of air,
(though there should always bo free ventilation iu the
sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in
fluence.
3d. IV must be continued whenever tho fever subsides,
or is evidently passing off; to be resumed when it
begins to rise again, should such lie the case under any
. ircnmstanccs.
fill. When the fever begins to subside, patients must
be left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should
not bo questioned as to tliclr wants or feelings, nor
attempt to converse, read or take any exercise whatever,
till their own natural feelings, independent of all extra
neous influences, induce them to rise or speak; nor
should auy conversation be allowed iu their hearing, iu
which they may feel mure or less interested, but be left
quiet lo ail intents and purposes.
ntll. Fluids should lie allowed, while giving it as
plentifully, and as long as the patient desires and no
lunger; they may consist of cold water, mucilaginous
•oinks, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, either
cold or warm ns parties may prefer or patients desire.
Oth. Should patients experience any oppro ;sion or
L.mtuesa while in the lying posture, so as to occasion a
restlessness after the lover has passed off, or enough to
‘.evasion them to apeak of it, they should liave a little
viuiv, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade with a little
q.ii it. ginger, or some other stimulant; or the face and
breast umv be bathed ill cold water; either of which
will give immediate relief.

(iive a tvaepoouful or iiiore, according lo the urgency
of tlio cane, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat the
Fluid once iu two hours it necessary, until the lever sub
sides—though one or two doses is generally sufficient;
but it should bo given and repeated sufficiently to keep
the fever under control. When the throat is affected,
any of the ordinary gargles limy bo used, and the
surface bathed, a* thought advisable.
In one case, on the ship Duchessd'Orleaus, the tongue
and faticuH were so much swollen that tho patient could
not swallow or speak, and lie was cun'll by dropping the
Fluid “ii his tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow,
wlion it was given iu teuspouuful doses every hour, till
all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling ol

Thu bowels of course should be attended to.
In connection with this subject, J cauuot refrain from
making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by
tlio ladies, will save them much pain and suffering. It
is to inform them of the happy effect of tho Fluid in
many of their trials, in child-birth, its relaxing aud
soothing effect ileprivesst iio labor of much of its pains
slid difficulties; ic must be tried to be appreciated.—
Fainful menstruation will be relieved t once by a com
mon dose and retiring. Restlessness, nervous irritability,
ora cold tukeu at a delicate time, is easily relieved by
its use; in short, it is ono of the most convenient and
effectual remedies lor many of the ills of females, if not
the most, so ofnny- medicine known, its effect is uniform,
relaxing tho whole system, removing all excitability
aud iritability of iho nervous a* well m the circulatory.
It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and
quiet tlio system so that, ono can sleep naturally and
healthy; licuco its uhc iu so many coses.
Synopsis.
To avoid constant repetition, and condense the treat
ment as much ns possible, 1 give under this hendgeneral
directions for all eases. As the Negative Electric Fluid
will change the condition called lever, or subdue and
control it, uuder all circumstances, without regard to the
name it may bo or ought to bo called, it should by given
wherever or whenever It exists; yet it ennuot lie ex
pected to control all organic or “local causes, which,
when such exist, must be removed In order to effect n
permanent cure.
When such indications occur In any case, they should
he appropriate means, und these sohuli bo given while
giving the - Fluid,” and in connection with it, when
occasion requires, a* they will then more readily act,
producing more general effect, besides uo unnecessary
time will then Ik- lost. As the Fluid” alone will sub
due the fever, 1 call all else auxiliary treatment.
If tiio bowels are costive, givo a cathartic (see auxili
aries) with the first dose, or soon after, auil should it
fail to operate in duo time, repeat tlio dose; if attended
with diarrhoea, give something known to be good for
that complaint, though if caused by irritability, the
“Fluid” will soon relievo that condition; if severe local
paiu or inflammation, apply some stimulating liniment,
a mustard plaster, a Mister, fomentations of bitter herbs,
or, perhaps, cloths wet in cold water, to tho part; if
violent pain iu the head, apply cold water, ice water,
if convenient, or some cooling application, and butho
the feet in hot water; if the lever is very high, skin
■ dry and hot, with great suffering, sponge or Imtlm the
whole surface with water ut an agrocable temperature;
“the saline wash,” vinegur aud water or spirits and
water, either will afford great relief aud aid the medi
cine in taking effect, after which there will be no trou
ble ; if Hie pullout bus been reduced or is much prostra
ted, give tonics and stimulants, particulurly in low
fevers, in absence of fever or whim indicated; also,
during convalesceuce, when the patient has become re
duced : if there is nausea und vomiting, that must tie
allayed before any medii-ine w ill remain on the stomach
to do auy good: for this purpose 1 generally give some
gentle emetic to cleanse tlio stomach; worm water, if
given plentifully, wilt answer every purpose; when tlie
stomach ha* sot tied, give the “Fluid” and a cathartic if
necessary; iu short, treat all the prominent symptoms
as you would under any other circumstances, giving tho
“ tzuid” lit (lie same time us directed, and success will
oriiw n your efforts; iudeetl, you cannot realize it till you
have seen, and then you will lie astonished ut tho ease
witii which you can control all febrile excitement.
Auxiliaries,
I’arties may feel at a loss to know what i> meant by
cathartics, Ac., ns physicians are usually particular
about what is used. I liave found uo such necessity
when using tho Fluid, ami to bo fully understood by
all, 1 will name a few of the diiTori ut article* of medi
cine 1 have referred 10, viz .--
t'n lifti'l ics.—Articles that purge or operate on the
bowels, such as castor oil. salts, senna, any of the roots
or barks, and many pills, autihilimis. Ac.; anything
known to be gis-d forsuch purpu, ■
Itepallcs.—Anything known (■■ set on the liver
particularly, feudal circulation and secretions generally.
Any of the articles depeutfed on by the different schools
for thfs purpose, will answer when tiaeil in connection
with llie -Fluid” or while the system i„ uuder its in
fluence. And one may choose calomel—another, blue
uiiiss—the third, podopbyiliu—the fourth, mandrake
root, and so on: each may take hi* cti'dre and lie suc
cessful.
Tonics.—Articles that give tone dr druiigth, muli
as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herb*. Bono
set, or thoroughwort is one of the i'*t used in fevers.
Astringents.—thicli ns check tlie action of the
bowels. Laudanum tmd other preparations of opium are
used; also, many mixtures, not prnper'y astringents,
which have tlie effect.
Stimulant a.—Articles that raise or excite Hu.
system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of tho best;
ginger, spirits, hartshorn, *e., the essences aro all moro
or less stimulating. These are the onlv classes necessa
ry in treating fevers, though many others arc generally
used, lull the Negative Electric Fluid j ; , ~ better “ dia
phoretic,’’ “auodyue,” •• diurotir.” - relaxant ” und
“sedative” limn known in llie materia mclictt.

only refer to one instance “f success, that on the
