Ith. —Kconemy of Thought. —As when known, it will remove all dread and anxiety at present existing, respecting febrile all'octious; particularly while dear friend is sick. 5 1 D.—Ucunomy of Health.—As the system is not reduced, and consequently racked; nor is the fever subject to be followed by chronic disease. tlth.—Kconomy of Life.—As tliecure is effected hetoro and without reducing the patient, consequently removing, in a corresponding degree, all danger of u fatal termination. Other reasons might he added, hut these arc deemed ’Oitßclsnt to satisfy all classes and persons lu all condi lions of life. The alwive reasons are more particularly applicable to the immediate treatment on the first attuek, hut will apply with equal force to canes which have been subject 'd to or have become reduced,.corresponding of course ‘o tbe uuturo of the case at the time it is first adminis tered. As tills remedy gives so prompt, effectual and perma nent relief, in all ordinary cases, when used soon after iln attack, persons can scarcely realise that they hail bean really much sick, and very naturally conclude they u i ‘ not attacked with fever, and if so, “it was trilling -a little cold, which gave alarm—it could have been uotbing of consequence—it would have passed off witli oil anything—that medicine had intellect.” The general impression on the subject of fever is such, that thoughts not unlike the above follow tliecure of a common case as naturally as men think at all; and it is not until l ie individual has witnessed many cases that he cun fully ■ •'alise the truth; and even then he may conclude them til lory trilling cases, which would have readily yielded to any simple medicine, yet persons, though they have finis successful lu perhaps hundreds of cases, must • xjiei't that there will cases occur where there is some ei tunic or local cause so great as to require particular indention, or though successful In reducing the fever, it wrfjl again rise as the influence of the “Fluid” pusses oil', as tlio exciting cause may still exist, Ills to guard against disappointment in suen cases that I have given and frequently refer to what I have called a “ synopsis.” Remarks Fevers lu General* On this subject I wish to he fully understood. Uy the term “lovers,” 1 comprehend all febrile affections to which the human frame is subject, including small pox and other eruptive fevers; but as they arise by a great variety of causes, and in quite dissimilar constitutions and liabils, they of course differ considerably in their development and exhibit a variety of forms or typos; yet all are distinguished by the same general character istic*—that el undue excitement in the circulatory ami nervous systems —inducing more or less unnatural fru queuoy in the pulse, sense of hunt, dryness of the skin, debility, Ate. To show that 1 am not wholly alone in the opinion I chance, f quote from the celebrated Prof. T. Watson, ■ I King’s College, Loudon, whose work on the •• Priiici ides and Practice of Physic” is a textbook in many of “in medical colleges, anucousequeiitly dau/iarda tUhm-it g in page 834, he says :—“We hear cnutiuuull >, both m .ml out of the profession, different eperics of fever spo ken of. ily the public, Ty; bus Fever, lirniu Fever, bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, now Fever, .Nervous Fever, .o'. And systematic writers are to the full as particular: dtuouH Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Gastro-Eutcrio, and ,o forth. .Now, admitting that lover slows itself under various forms, 1 am persuaded that the effect upon Iho mind of all Ibis sub-division, is bud and hurtful. It encourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pro scribe for a disease according to its name. There is no tin ‘ of genuine distinction between continued fevers, that can be relied on. They run insensibly iutu each other, even the most dissimilar of them, and are often tiaceuble to the same cause,” The above is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance and I wonld impress ou your miuds the folly of hunting up or troubling yomself about a “ name;” if you have t’ vr, treat il lit once as hereafter directed, and you m'll. be well instead of any distinctchuracter being devel oped, so its to lie properly named by the most scientific. This assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula tions or visions of mind, but on experience at the bed side of the sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands of cases (by myself and others) under a great variety of cir • mnstancM, seasons and climates. Hear this in mind, anil treat at once without regard to name, and rest assured you will soon ho freed from ult dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers. But as eases may have be come developed before tlio “Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under some other treatment, I will describe as nrictly as possible tlio proper course to be pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though the “ Itules” and “ Synopsis” will be amply sufficient for all those neeustomed to attendance upon the sick. Ilnlej important to be observed in all cases in using the. Negative Electric Fluid. Ist. It should ho given in three or four times its own quantity of water, and may be sweetened or nut at pleasure. 3d. Patients must ho free from all currents of air, (though there should always ho free ventilation in the sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in tiiionce. fid. It must bo continued whenever the fever subsides, a- is evidently passing off; to lie resumed when it begins to rise again, should sucli lie tlio case under any iivumstnnccs. 4th. When the fever begins to subside, patients must be left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should not be questioned as to their wants or feelings, nor attempt to converse, read or take any exercise whatever, l ill their own natural feelings, independent of all extra neous iiitluoncos, induce them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation be allowed in their hearing, in which they may fool more or less interested, hut he left quiet to all intents uiid purposes. ."•til. Fluids should ho allowed, while giving it as plentifully, and as long as the patient desires and no longer; they limy consist of cold water, mucilaginous drinks, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, either “d<i or warm, as parties may prefer or patients desire. lith. Should patients experience any oppression or fuiutnom while in the lying (mature, so as to occasion a r est lessuoss after the fever has passed off, or enough to o'-easiim them to speak of it, they should have a littlo vine, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade with a little pirit, ginger, or some other stimulant; or tlio face and heeast maybe bathed in cold water; either of which will give immediate relief. TABLE OF DOSES. For children of one year or under, from fi to 8 drops. “ over 1 and under 3 years, “ ft to 16 “ “ “ 3 “ 5 “ “ 12 to 80 “ “ 6 “ 10 “ “ 20 to 60 “ “ 8 “ 15 half to a teaspoonful. All persons over fifteen considered us adults, for whom i cuspoonful is a common dose. Old persons do not require as much as young, or those in the prime of life; mu’ females, as a general rule, as much us males. there in no part ieular care necessary in giving it to children —those of ten years of ago frequently having taken full doses; hut for a little guide, I have given Iho above table, with the remark that, as a general rule, children require more than intuits in proportion. tty observing the above directions, t|„. medicine will ho found agreeable in all of its effects, the expectations of tlio most sanguine rcali/aal, ainl many perfectly astonished. My object in being thus particular is, that the full beuefit of the medicine may be obtained, and notoil account of any actual necessity of such strict ole -civanoes. Hilton* or Remittent Fever. tiive a teasponfiil of “ Fluid” (see rule Ist) once in two hours, till tlio fever is evidently passing off’; this constitutes the whole treatment in till simple eases of fever, with such observances as are set forth in the ‘■ Kiiles.” But should there be prominent local symp toms, or known local existing causes, they should lie :dlended to at once, and while giving the “Fluid.” Sen Synopsis. I fin any case the bowels are particularly constipated er routined, give a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the first portion; they must be opened or the fever may rise again. Where the fever is very high, pulse running 110 or .pwards, and the patient is not particularly susceptible to the iultuonro of medicine —not easily operated en by medicine generally—a double dose, or two teoapoousful may lie given ut first with advantage, ami even repeated m two hours—if it —the pulse—has not been softened, tints showing the medicine has taken effect. ilathing tlio surface with water at an agreeable temperature, the saline wash, vinegar or spirits and water, lit these dillieult eases, will afford relief mid aid tlio medicine much iu taking effect. Congestive Fever. tiive two teaspoonsful and repeat every two hours till the pulse become* more full and suit, then only a tea ’ p<i.infill, to bo discontinued as the fever subside!. As the bowels are generally routined, and it is frequently very difficult to get medicine to o|ierntc In thW disease, no time should lie lost to get them open, give some active e It hurtle with the “ Fluid” and repeat as may be neees ■iiry till it operates; enemas (injections) may hlso lie used to advantage; also, mustard to the extremities, or friction (rubbing) with the hands or flannel; also, cold application* to tlio head. Quinine limy lie added to the “ Fluid” If thought advisable. See Synopsis. Nervosa* Fever, Typltu*, Ship mwl Putrid or Spotted Fever. Ah these fevers are all of one character, differing mainly in degree, being all of a low grade, the pulse small and wiry, with a general great depression, there is n I practical use In separating them—at least so far as my treatment Is concerned. In these lew fevers, when fully developed, a little patience will he required: still comparatively little, as they frequently run weeks under Pie common treatment, while with this hut a few days will b necessary st longest to establish a permanent • un vmlsoor nee. The treatment should be commenced—which may immediately follow any other without detriment with a looepoonful of “ Fluid” every two liours, till the pulse becomes fuller or larger in volume, then to he continued ynee in st* or eight hour* till tFe fever entirely subsides. In b.ol cases, from three (u five grains each of guinine. and <>ipsu:um (Cayenne pepper) or some tonic and stimu lant (see auxiliaries) should be added to ouch dose. The bowels sliould be kept gently open, and small portions of homo Ue.paJ.tc should be given occasionally, even though the bowels should bo very loose. The patient sliould ho sustained by nourishing and mucilagenous drink*—such us are in common use in such cases.— Where the skill is very dry, sponging the surface as ili rented in bilious fever, will lie found advantageous. Tonic* should lie used during convalescence, iu all eases which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lung or Winter Fever. (live a teaspoon!ul of the “ Fluid” every two hours, with a wiue-glassful of a strong decoction of boueset; or half the quantity may bo given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say once in six or eight hours. The 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 he applied over the seat ot pain; keep tlio bowels gently open. Variola, Varioloid, Rubeola and Scarla tina; or Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles, and Scarlet Fever. As all of these diseases are attended with lover, which in fact is the most prominent symptom, the treatment differs hue little from that of common fevers, lteiiieiuher never wait to learn the “name,” whether it is one or ths other, or neither, n* they all commence with J'eve.r, but treat it at once; govern the fever and there will be no trouble; there will bubutliUle eruption even iu small (six. This, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubtless will he regarded with ridicule by many. I nevertheless boldly make tile assertion, that small pox, if treated as 1 direct, will be cut short; attended with but little erup tion; little or no pitting, and ttiat there is no necessity of its running its ordinary course. On this 1 will stake nut only my reputation, lint a 1 that 1 hold most dear; besides, on this subject, 1 have good authority; that of Fret Watson, previously quoted, lie says, page 874: “ You may abate the force of tlio eruptive fever, and keep down, it is believed, the number of the pusluleat by spline purges, Ac.” Here is the admission that it muy ho done. I nave not only proven it mug be, hut has been done in numerous cases that occurred on board ship. Hoe the account appended. (live a teaspoouful or more, according to the urgency of tlio case, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat tlio Fluid once in two liours if necessary, until the feversuh sides—though one or two doses is genera.ly sufficient; but it Hhould bo given and repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under control. When the throat is affected, any of the ordinary gargles may be used, and the surface bathed, as thought advisable. I u one ease, on the ship Duchess d’Orleuus, the touguo and faucus were so much swollcu that the patient could not swallow or speak, anil lie was cured by dropping the Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till lie could swallow, when ii was given iu teaspoouful doses every hour, till all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of the throat was reduced so os to enable him to take nour ishment iu about twelve hours by the 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 with such readiness, as to seem to boos little consequence. A single doso or two of a teaspoouful, almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need be entertained, as tlio Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should he re peated as long its tlio f“Vur continues, us in other cases. Tlio bowels of course should bo 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 Muttering. It is to inform them of the happy effect ol’ the Fluid in many of tlicir trials. In child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives tlio labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must lie tried to ho appreciated.— Painful menstruation will ho relieved at oiico by a com mon doso and retiring, itestlessuess, nervous irritability, or a cold taken at a delicate time, is easily relieved by its use; in short, it is one of tlio most convenient and effectual remedies for many of the ills of females, if not the most so of any medicine known. Its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability uud iritability of tlio nervous as well us tlio circulatory. It will nut force sleep like ophites, hut it will south and quiet the system so that one can sleep naturally and healthy ; hence its use in so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense tlio treat ment us much as possible, I give under this bead general directions tor all cases. As the Negative Electric Fluid will change tlio condition called fever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name it may bo or ought to lie called, it should bo given wherever or whenever it exists; yot it cannot bo 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 iuany case, they should be appropriate means, and these sohuld ho given while giving tlio “Fluid,” uud in 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 the ‘,Fluid” alone will sub due tlio fever, I call all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) With the first doso, or soon after, and should it fail to operate in due time, repeat the dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something known to he good for that complaint, though If caused by irritability, the “Fluid” will soon relieve that condition; if severe local pain or inflammation, apply some stimulating liniment, a mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of I fitter, herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet in cold water, to the part; if violent pain iu the head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe the foot in iiot water; if tlio fever is very high, skin dry and hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe the whole surface with water at an 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 the patient has been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tuuics and stimulants, particularly iu low fevers, iu absence of lover 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 will remain on the stomach to do any good; for this purpose 1 generally give some gentle emetic to cleanse the stomach; warm water, if given plentifully, will answer every purpose; when the stomach lias settled, give the “ Fluid” and a cathartic if necessary; iu short, treat all the prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giving the “ Fluid” at the same time us directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till you have seen, and then you will bo astonished at the ease witli which you can control all febrile excitement. Auxiliaries. Parties may feel at a loss to know what is meant by cathartics, Ac., as physicians are usually particular about what is used. I have found uo such necessity when using the Fluid, and to lie fully understood by all, 1 w ill name a lew of the different articles of medi cine I have referred to, viz:— Cat liurtics. —Articles that purge or operate on the bowels, sueli as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots or harks, and many (fills, antibilious, ,Vc.; anything known to be good forsuch purposes. Hepatic*.— Anything known to act on tlio liver particularly, portal circulation and secretions generally. Any of the articles depended on by the different schools for this purpose, will answer when used iu connection with the “Fluid” or while the system is under its in fluence. And one may choose calomel—another, blue muss—the third, podopliyllin—the fourth, mandrake root, ami so on; each may take his choice and ho suc cessful. Tout©*.—Articles that give tone or strength, such asquluine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. Bone set or thoroughwort is one of the best used ill fevers. A*< rlngcut*.— Such us check the action of the bowels. Isuidunum ami other preparations of opium are used: also, many mixtures, not properly astringents, which have the effect. Stimulant*. —Articles that raise or excite the system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of the best; ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., the essences are all more or less stimulating. These arc the only classes necessa ry in treating fevers, though many others are generally used, but the Negative Electric Fluid is a bot'er “dia phoretic,’’ “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and “sedative” than known in the materia median. 1 shall not tax the reader with u long list of proofs, depending mainly on the results of u trial, and will only refer to one instance of success, that on the Packet ship One lie** D’Orleans. which cannot lie classed among ordinary certificates: We, the undersigned, certify to the following, viz We tisik passage on the packetsliip Duchess d'drleans, Capt Hutton, tin'll lying in the port of Havre, France, mid bound tor New York. She sailed on the Util of Au gust, 1851, with over a hundred souls on hoard, mostly emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, the small pox broke out among the emigrants, They were all treated by the physician iu charge,Dr. N. W. Seat, w ith anew remedy of Ids own, which he calls Negative Elec tric Fluid, with which he seemed to have entire control over the disease, arresting it iti a few hours, and curing in a very short time. During the voyage, yyhicli lasted thirty-nine days, there wereabout eighty cases of small pox, some fever, Ac., and not a single death. All were cured with unu sual promptness. From wluit we saw during said passage, we are fully convinced tlmt the medicine used by Dr. Seat on the oc casion. possesses inestimable virtues.
