To snow that I aid not wholly alone in tile opinion I i Ivance, I iplOtc from the celebrated Prof. T.

It ciicidiragcs a disposition, already too prevalent, to pro rrlbo for a disease according to its name,. There is mo lin” of gunuluo distinction between continued fevers, rliat Can ho relied on. They run insuiislhly into each other, oven tho most dissimilar of them, and are often traceable to the same ‘cause.” fho above is a great fact, into v.-oi rliy of remembrance and I would impress on your minds the folly of limiting up or troubling youi self about a “ name;” if you liave hirer, treat it at once no hereafter directed, and you viHtue Well instead of any distinctciiaracter being devel oped, so as to ho properly named by the most scientific. This assertion Is no hypothesis based on closet specula tions or vision* of mind, but oil experience at the bed sida of tlie *ick, in hundreds, aye, thousands of cases (by myself aud uthere) under a great variety of cir cumstances, seasons and ctlniates. Bear tliis 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 levers, but as casus may have Iks come developed before the ‘■ Fluid” is given, eitiicr by neglect, or under some other treatment, X will describe as briefly as possible the proper course to be pursued iu all of tho most prominent fevers, though the “ ilulcs” and “Synopsis* will be amply sufficient for nil those :y-customer! to atteuilanco upon the sick. h'ulr.t important tn be observed in nil cates in using Ihe Negative Jtlcdrte Fluid.

Where the fever is very high, pulse running MO or upwards, aud the patient Is not. pactieularty susceptible in tlio influence of medicine —nut easily operated on by medicine generally—a double dose, or two toas]<oonsful may bo given at lirst with advantage, and oven i cheated 1.1 two hours—ls it—the pulse—lias net been fjpeneil, Mitts showing tho medicine has taken effect.

As these Cevars aro all of one character, differing mainly iu degree, being all of a low grade. the pulse small and wiry, with a general great depression, there i* no practical u*o iu aeparntiug tluna —at least so (liras my treatment is concerned. In theso low fevers, when fully developed, a little patience will be required; still comparatively little, as they frequently run week* under •Iw common treatment. while witli this hut a few days will bo noMMfJF at longest to ctr.hll.di a permanent isivwlescenco. Tho treatmmt should he commenced—which may immediately follow any other w ithout detriment—with a teaspoonful of •• Fluid” every two hours, till the pulse becomes fuller or larger In volume, theu to be continued ynes tn six or sight hour* till tFe fever entirely subsides. In bad cases, from three to five grains each of r/uinine and capsicum (Cayenne pepper) or Sum* tonic and stimu lant (see auxiliaries) Should bo udder, to ouch dose. Tne bowels sliould liu kept gently open, aud small portions of Home iirjjuiut should bo given occasionally, even though the bowels should bo very loose. The patient siiuuid be sustained by liuarisluug aud luucilaguuuu* drinks—such as are iu common uhc in such cases.— Whore the litis is very dry, sponging tile siirfftce as di rectcl iu bilious fever, will be found advantageous. Toluca should be used during convalescence, in nil cases which have become reduced. i'neumonla, Typiiuld Fnvuinuulii, Luug or Winter Fever. Uive a tenspoonful of the “ Fluid” every two hum*, with a wine-glassful of a strong decoction of Umeset; or half the quantity may be given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say once in six or eight hours. The boneset tea should be given warm till the violent symptoms aro allayed, or the patient is relieved; then cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, or something of the kind, tube applied over the scat of pain; keep the bowels gently open. Variola, Varioloid, Kubcola and Scarla tina; or Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles, and Scarlet Fever. As all of these dis.aaon are attended with fever, which in tin tis the, most prominent symptom, the treatment dlttors hue little from that of cumniuii fevers. Item ember never wait to learn the “norms,” whether it is one or tlio other, or neither, us they nil commence until Jivcr, but treat it at once;-govern the fever and there will be no trouble: there will bo but little, eruption oven in small IH,x. This, turnout minds, is anew Idea, and doubtless will bo regarded with ridicule by many, 1 nevertheless iioldiy make the assertion, that email pox, if treated as 1 dire ct, will be cut thrrh ; attended with nut little erup tion; little or no jutting, and that there is no necessity of its running its ordinary course. (In this 1 will stake not only my reputation, but a.l that I hold most dear; besides, on thissubject, 1 have good authority; fliut of Prof. Watson, previously quoted. He says, page 374: “ Vou may abate the force of the eruptive lever, anil keep down, it i* believed, the number ojthe pustuhs by spline purges, Ac.” Ilerulf the admission luat it may he dene. I nave not only proveu it may Ik, but hus treeu i lone in numerous cases that occurred ou board ship. Sen the account appended. • live a tfuiupoonffil or inure, according to the urgency of tho ease, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat the Fluid once in two hours if necessary, until thefi)vcrsub sides—though one or two dose* is genera ly sufficient; hut it should be given and repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under control. W hen the throat i* affected, auy of tlio ordinary gargles may bo used, and the surface bathed, as thought advisable. In one case, on the ship Duchess ivOrleans, the tongue and lliucus were so much swollen that the patient could not swallow or sp")ik. and lie was cured by dropping tiie Fluid ou his tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow, when it was given iu teuspoonfui doses every herur, till all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of tlio throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment ill about twelve hours by tlio Fluid alone.— Used to wet the throat frequently, it is ilonbtless the h< ! gurgle iu all such cases. Puerjicral or Childlicd Fever. This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming malady to which the mother is liable, w ill yield to tire Negative Electric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem to be of little consequence. ‘ A single dose or two of a teaspoon I ul. almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; uu alarm need bo entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should igi re peutud as long as the fver continues, as iu other cases, flic* howels oi course should be attended to. In connection with this subject, 1 cannot refrain from making a low general remarks, which, if regarded by the lames, will save them much pain and suffering, it is to inform them of the lumpy effect of the Fluid in many of their trials. In child-birth, its relaxing and sootiiiiig effect deprives the labor of much of its pains nml difficulties; it must ho tried to be appreciated.— Painful menstruation will be relieved at ouce by a com mon done ami retiring, ltestlessness, nervous irritability, ora cold taken at a delicate time, is easily relieved by its uso; in short, it is one of the most convenient and effectual remedies for many of the ills of females, if not tlio most so of auy medicine known. Its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing ail excitability and lritability of the nervous as well as tlio 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 its uso in so many cases, Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense tlio treat ment as much as possible, l give under this head general directions for all cases. As the Negative Electric Fluid will change the Condition called foyer, or subdue aud control it under all circumstances, without regard to tho name it may be or ought to lie called, it should he given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot bu ex pected to control all organic or local causes, which, when such exist, must bo removed in order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any case, they should bo appropriate means, and these sohuld bo given while giving the “Fluid,” aud in connection with it, when occasion requires, as they w ill then more readily act, producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary time will then be lost. As the ‘,Fluid” alone will sub due tlio fever, I call all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels aro costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) with the first dose, or soon after, and should it fail to operate in duo time, repeut the dose; if attended witli diarrhoea, give something known to be good for that complaint, though if caused by irritability, the “Fluid” will soon relieve that condition; if severe local pain or iullaiumatioii, apply some stimulating liniment, a mustard plaster, u blister, fomentations of bitter herbs, or, iierhaps, cloths wet In cold water, to tho part; if violent pain in tho head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe the feet in hot water; if the fever is very high, skin dry and hot, with great suffering, spoago or bathe the whole sui face with water at uu agreeable temperature; “the saline 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 trou ble ; if tho patient lias been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics uud stimulants, particularly in low fever*, in absence of fever or when indicated; also, during convalescence, when the patient lias become re duced ; if there is nausea and vomiting, that must be allayed before any medicine w ill remain on the stomach to do any good: for this purpose I generally givo somo gentle emetic to cleanse tho stomach; warm water, if given plentifully, will answer every purpose; when the stomach Ims settled, give the •• Fluid” aud a cathartic if necessary; in short, treat all the prominent symptoms as y oil would under any other circumstances, giving the •■Fluid” at the same time ns directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realise It till you have seen, and then you will be astonished at tiie ease wi*li which you can control nil febrile excitement. Auxiliaries. Parties may feel at a loss to know wlmt is meant by cathartics, Ac., as physicians are usually particular about what is used. 1 have found no such necessity when using tlio Fluid, anil to he fully understood by all, 1 will name a lew of the different articles of medi cine 1 have referred to, viz : Fat Unrtics.—Articles that purge or operate on the bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots or harks, and many pills, antibiliuus, Ac.; anything known to be good fur such purposes. Ilf |>ntic*.—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 in connection with the “Fluid” or while the system is under its in fluence. Ami one may choose calomel —another, blue muss—the third, podophyltin—the fourth, mandrake root, and so ou; each may take his choice aud he suc cessful. Toufca.—Articles that give tone or strength, such as quinine, various harks, roots aud bitter herbs. Bone, set or thoroughwurt is one of the host used iu fevers. Aatrtngentii.—Such as check the action of the bowels, laudanum nml 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 oue of the best; ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., the essences are all more or less stimulating. These are the only classes necessa ry in treating fevers, though many others are generally used, hut the Negative Electric Fluid is a better “dia phoretic.’’ “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and ” sedative” tli.,ii lctiowu in tho materia medico, I shall not tax the reader wlilt a long list of proofs, depending mainly on the results of a trial, and will only refer to otic Instance of success, that uu the Packctsbip Duchess D'Oriesus. which cannot be classed among ordinary certificates: We, the undersigned, certify to the following, viz— We took passage on the nucketshlp Duchess and ifficult*, Ciipt Hutton, then lying In the port of Havre.
