NEGATIVE, ELECTRIC FLUID, Ftepareii by N. VV. Seat, M. D. i.ruuuH why it should bo used instead of any other treat ment in all Febrile affections: Ist.— Economy of Time. —As only oiu-Kvenllt of the ordinary time la required to effect a cure. dit. --Economy of Money. —As It Ooata but one dollar. 3rd.—Economy of Feeling— As it oaves the suffering of a long sickness and the consequent treat ment; the annoyance of taking nauseating doses of medicine, their disagreeable operation, and the pain of long confinement; but little of the fluid being necoasary, and that pleasant in its effects. 4th.—Economy of Thought. —As when known, it will remove all dread and anxiety at present existing, respecting febrile affections; particularly while a dear friend is lick. sth.—Economy of Health. —As the system is out reduced, and consequently racked; nor is tbe fever subject to ba followed by chronic disease. 6th.—Economy of Life. —As the cure is effected before aud without reducing the patient, consequently removing, in a corresponding degree, all danger of a fatal termination. Other reasons might he added, but these are deemed sufficient to satisfy all classes aud persons in all condi tions of life. Tiie above rnasous are more particularly applicable to tlie immediate treatment on the first attack, but will apply with equal force to cases which have been subject ed to or have become reduced, corresponding of course *,o the nature of the caso at the time it is first adminis tered. As lids remedy gives so prompt, effectual aud perma nent relief, in all ordinary cases, when used soon after the attack, persons can scarcely realise tiiat they hud been really much sick, and very naturally conclude they were not attacked with fever, and if so, “it was trilling —a little cold, which gave alarm —it could have been nothing of consequence—it would have passed off with out anything—that medicine hud uoeffoct.” The general impression on the subject of fever is such, that thoughts not unlike the alsivu fellow the cqre of a common case as naturally as men think at utl; and it is not until the individual has witnessed many cases that he enu fully realise the truth; aud even then he may conclude them ull very tiifiing casus, which would Imvo readily yielded to any simple medicine, yet persons, though they liuvo been thus successful in purhups hundreds of cuses, must expect that there will cases occur wln-re there is some organic or local cause so grout us to require particular attention, or though successiul in reducing the fever, it will again rise us the influence of the “ Fluid” passes olt, as tlie exciting causo may still exist. It is to guard against disappointment In sue.n cases that I have given aud frequently refer to what I have called a “ synopsis.” Remarks on Fevers In iicneral- On tills subject 1 wish to he fuily understood. By the term “ levers,” I comprehend all febrile affections to which the human frame is subject, including small pox and ether eruptive fevers; but as they arise by a great variety of causes, aud in quite dissimilar constitutions and habits, they of course differ considerably in their development anil exliil.it a variety Os forms or types; yet all aro distinguished by the sums general character istics—that ol undue excitement in the circulatory and nervous systems—inducing more nr less unnatural fre quency in tbo pulse, sense of heat, dryness of the skin, debility, Ac. To snow that I am not wholly alone in the opinion I advance, I quote from the celebrated Prof. T. Watson, of King's College, Loudon, whoso work on the “ Princi ples and Practice of Physio” is a text book in many of our medical Colleges, and consequently etaniturdauthority. tin page 834, he says:—“We near continually, both iu and out of the profession, different species of fever spo ken of. By the public, Typhus Fever, Bruin Fever, Bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever, Ac. Anil systematic writers are to the full as particular: M ucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Uostro-Enterio, aud so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, 1 am persuaded that the effuct upon the mind of all this sub-division, is hod aud hurtful. It encourages a disposition, already ton prevalent, to pre seribo for a disease according to its name. There is no line of genuine distinction between continued fevers, that can lie relied on. They run insensibly into each oilier, even the most dissimilar of them, and are often traceable to the same cause.” Tire above Is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance and 1 would imprus on your minds the folly of hunting up or troubling yourself about a “name;” if you have fever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and you will be well instead of any distinctcharacter being devel oped, so ns to bo properly named by the most scientific. This assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula tions or visions of mind, but on experience at tlie bed side of the sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands of cases (by myself and othors) under a great variety of cir cumstances, seasons and climates. Bear this in mind, and treat at once without regard to name, and rest assured you will soon bo freed from all dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers. But as cases may have be come developed before the “Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under some other treatment, I will describe as briefly as possible the proper course to be pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though the “ Rules” and “ Synopsis” will bo amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attcudunce upon the sick. Kulet important to be ohterved in all caeee in using the Negative Electric fluid. Ist. It should be given in throe or four times Its own quantity of water, and may be sweetened or not at pleasure. 2d. Patients must be froo from all currentt of air, (though there should always bo free ventilation iu the sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in fluence. 2d. It must bo continued whenever tlie fover subsides, or is evidently passing off; to be resumed when it begins to rise again, should such l>o tho case under any circumstances. 4th. When the fever begins to subside, patients must be left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should uot bo questioned as to their wonts 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 any conversation be allowed in their hearing, iu which they may feel more or less interested, but bo left quiet to all intents uud purposes. 6th. Fluids should bo allowod, wliilo giving it as plentifully, and us long ns tlie patient desires anil no longer; they may consist of cold water, mucilaginous drinks, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, either cold or warm, as parties may prefer or patients desire. titli. Should patients experience any oppression or Aiintuess while in the lying posturo, so as to occasion a restlessness after tlie fover lias passed off, or enough to occasion them to speak of it, they should have a little wine, toddy, camphor, hurtsliora, lemonade with a little spirit, ginger, or some other stimulant; or tlie face and breast may bo bathed in cold water; either of which will give immediate relief. TABLE OF DOSES. For cliildrou of ono your or under, from 3 to 8 drops. “ over l nd under 2 years, “ sto 15 “ “ 2 “ 5 •< 5 “ 10 “ “ 8 “ 15 half to a toaspoouful. All persons over fifteen considered as adults, for whom a touapoonful is a common dose. Old la-rsons do not require as much as young, or those in the prime of life; nor females, as a general rule, a* much as males. There Is no particular care necessary in giving it to children —those of ten years of ago frequently having taken full doses; but for a little guide, 1 have givou the shove table, with the remark that, as a general rule, children require more than adults in proportion. Ity observing the above directions, the medicine w ill be found agreeable in all of its effects, the expectations of the most sanguine realized, and mauy perfectly astonished. My object in being thus particular is, thn't the full benefit of the medicine may bo obtained, and not on account of any actual necessity of such strict ob servances. Bilious or Remittent Fever. (live a toasponful of “Fluid” (see rule Ist) once in two hours, till the fever is evidently passing otf; this constitutes the whole treatment in all simple cases of fever, with such observances os are set forth in the “ Itulea.” Hut should there be prominent local symp toms, or known local oxisting causes, they should 1* attended to at ouce, and witilo giving the “ Fluid.” See Synopsis. If iu any case the bowels are particularly constipated or routined, giro a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the first portion; they must boopeuedor the fever may rise again. Where the fever is very high, pulse running 110 or upwards, and tho patient is not particularly susceptible to the Intluenre of medicine—uot easily operated on by medicine generally—a double dose, or two teaspoonsful may be given at first with advantage, and even repeated in two hours—if it—the pulse—has uot been softened, thus showing tho medicine lias taken effect. bathing the surface with water at an agreeable temperature, the aatiuo wash, vinegar or spirits and water, in these difficult cases, will afford relief and aid the medicine much iu taking effect. Congestive Fever, Give two teaspoonsful and repeat every two hours till the pulse becomes more full and soft, then only a tea spoonful, to be discontinued as the fever subsides. As the bowels are generally confined, and It is frequently very difficult to get medicine to operate iu tbit disease, no time should be lost to get them open, give none active cathartic with the “ Fluid” aud repeat as may be neces sary till it operates; eneniaa (injections) may also be us,ml to advantage; also, mustard to the extremities, or friction (rubbing) with the hands or flannel; also, cold applications to the head. Quinine may he milled to the * Fluid” if thought advlaable. Bec Synopsis. Nervous Fever, Typhus, Ship and Putrid or Spotted Fever. As these fevers are all of one character, differing mninly in degree, lieing all of a low grade, the pulse ■mall and wiry, with a general great depression, there is no practical use iu separating them—at h*ast so fur as ni\ treatment Is concerned, in these low fevers, w hen hilly developed, a little patience will lie required; still comparatively little, as they frequently run weeks under tl*> common treatment, while with this hut a few days will be necessary at longest to establish a permanent convalescence. The treatment should be commenced—which mav immediately follow any other without detriment—with a tsaspoonnil of •• Fluid” every two hours, till the pulse becomes fuller or larger In volume, then to lie continued In stm or sight hour* till the fsvsr entirely subsides. In bad cases, from three to five grains each of quinine and capsicum (Cayenne pepper) orsuino tunic and stimu lant (see auxiliaries) should bo added to each dose. The bowels should be kept gently Open, and small portions of some hepatic should be given occasionally, even though the bowels should bo very loose. The patient should bo sustained by nourishing and mucilageuuus drinks—such as are in common use in such cases.— Where the skin is very dry, sponging the surface as di rected iu bilious fever, will be found advantageous. Tonics should be used during convalescence, iu all panes which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lung or ‘Winter Fever. Give a teaspooul'ul of tlie “ Fluid” every two hours, with a wine-glassful of a strong decoctiofi of bone set; or half tho quantity may bo given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say once in six or eight hours. The honeset tea should be given warm till the violent symptoms are allayed, or the patient is relieved ; then cold; fomentations, mustard pluster, or something of tho kiud, to he applied over the seat of pain; keep the bowels gently upon. Variola, Varioloid, ltubeola and Scarla tina; or Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles, and Scarlet Fever. As all of these diseases are attended witli fever, which in fact is the most prominent Symptom, tile treatment differs hue little from that of common fevers. Remember never wait to learn tlie “name,” whether it is one or tlie other, or neither, us they all commence with /ever, hut treat it at once; govern the lever aud there will be no trouble; there will be but little eruption even in small pox. This, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubtless will bo regarded with ridicule by many. 1 nevertheless boldly make the assertion, that small pox, if treated as f direct, will be rut thort ; attended with but litlio erup tion; little or no pitting, and that there is no necessity of its runniug its ordinary course. On tills I will stake not only my reputation, but ad that I hold most dear; besides, on this subject, I have good authority; that ol J’rof. Watson, previously quoted, lie says, page 574: “You may abate tlie fores of tlie eruptivo lever, and keep down, it is believed, tbe number of the pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Hero is tiic admission tnnt it may be done. 1 nave not only proven it may be, but has bem done in numerous cases that occurred on board ship, bee tlie account appended. (live u teaspoonful or more, according to tho urgency of the case, with a dose of suits or castor oil; repeat tlie Fluid once iu two hours if necessary, until the fevorsub sides—‘.hough one or two doses is genera,ly sufficient; but it should ho given and repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under control. When tlie throat is affected, any of tlie ordinary gargles may bo used, and the surface bathed, as thought advisable. 11l one case, on tho ship Duchess d’Orlcuiis, tlie tongue aud faucus wore so much swollen that tlie patient could not swallow or speak, and he was cured by dropping tlie Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till ho could swallow, when it was given in teaspoonful doses every hour,. till all alarming symptoms disappeared. Tlie swelling of tlie throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment in about twelve hours by tile 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 the mother is liable, will yield to the Negative Electric Fluid witli such readiness, us to seem to be of little consequence. A single dose or two of a toaspoonful, almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need lie entertained, as tlie Fluid will arrest it iu a short time. It should be re peated as long as tlie favor continues, as in other cases. The bowels of Course should be attended to. In connection with this subject, I cannot refrain from making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by the ladies, will save them much pain and suffering, ft is to inform them of tho happy effect of the Fluid in many of their trials. In child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives tlie labor of much of its pains ami difficulties; it must he tried to be appreciated.— Painful menstruation w ill be relieved at once by a com mon dose andretiring. 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 the ills of females, if not the most so of any medicine known. Jts effect is uniform, relaxing tlie Whole system, remiWng all excitability and iritability of the nervous as well as tlie 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 Us use in so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense the treat ment as much as possible, 1 give under this head general directions for all cases. As the Negative Electric Fluid will change tho condition called lover, or subdue aud control it under all circumstances, without regard to tho name it may boor ought to lie called, it should be 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 iu older to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any casts they should he appropriate menus, aud those soliuld be given while giving tho “Fluid,” and iu 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 tho ‘,Fluid” alone will sub duo the fever, I call all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels aro costive, give a cathartic (sec auxili aries) witli tho first dose, or soon alter, and should it fail to operato in duo time, repeat tlie dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something know n to tio good for that complaint, though if caused by irritability, tho “ Fluid” will soon relieve that condition; if severe local pain or inflammation, apply some stimulating liniment, a mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of hitter herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet iu cold water, to tlie part; if violent puiu in the lieud, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe tlie feet iu hot water; if the fever is very high, skill dry and hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe the whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature; “tlie saline wash,” vinegar anil water or spirits and water, either will afford great relief and aid tlie medi cine in taking effect, after which there will be no trou ble ; if the patient Inis been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics and stimulants, particularly in low fevers, iu absence of fever er when indicated; also, during convalescence, when the patient has become re duced; if there is nausea and vomiting, that must be allayed lieforo 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 tlie prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giving tho “Fluid” at the same time as directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed, you caunot realize it till you have seen, aud then you will lie astonished at tho ease witli which you can control all febrile excitement. Auxiliaries. Parties may fool at a loss to know what is meant by cathartics, Ac., as physicians are usually particular about what is used. I have found no such necessity when using tlie Fluid, and to be fully understood by all, I will name a lew of the different articles or medi cine I have referred to, viz:— Catliartics.—Articles tliatpurgo or operate on the bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots or barks, aud many pills, autibilious, Ac.; anything known to be good for such purposes. Hepatic*.— Anything known to act on tlie liver particularly, portal circulation and secretions generally. Any of the articles depended on by tlie different schools for this purpose, will answer when used in connection with tho “Fluid” or while the system is under its in fluence. And one may chooM'calomel—another, blue mass—tlie 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, sueli as quinine, various roots and bitter herbs. Bone set or thorough wort is one of the best used in fevers. Astringents.—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. Stimulants.—Articles Hint raise or excite the system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of the best; ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., tlie essences are all more or less stimulating. These are the only classes nercss.v 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 kutiwu iu the materia mnlica. 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 one instance of success, that on tlie Packet ship Duclutss D’Orleaus. which cannot bo classed among ordinary certificates: We, the undersigned, certify to the’ follow ing, viz We took passage on the packetshlp Duchess d’Orlcauß, Capt llutton, then lying in tho port of Havre. Frame, and bound for New York. She sailed on the kith of Au gust, 1861, with over a hundred souls on hoard, mostly emigrants- A few days after leaviug Havre, the small pox broke out among the emigrants, They were all treated by the physician in charge. Dr. X. \\. Heat, with u now remedy of hit own, which he calls Negative Elec tric Fluid, with which he seemed to have entire control over the disease, arresting it in a few hours, ami curing in a very short time. During tho 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 wo saw during said passage, wo tire fully convinced that the medicine used by Dr. Heat on the oc casion. possesses inestimable virtue.-.. We never before heard or road of febrile affections being controlled with so much ease, promptness and certainty, or so little trouble to the nurse.
