Tin) above reasons are more particularly applicable to the immediate treatment on the first attack, but will apply with equal force to cases wlihdi have been subject ed to or liat'e become reduced, Corresponding of course •o the uatpre of the case at the time it is first adminis tered. As this remedy gives so prompt, effectual and perma- relief, in all ordinary cases, when used soon after tiie attack, persons can scarcely realize that they had been really much sick, and very nuturdly conclude tli y wer, not attacked with fever, and if so, “it was trifling ■a little cold, which gave alarm—it could have been n n.idng of consequence—it would have passed off with out anything—that medicine hud noeffect.” The general impress,on on the subject of fever is such, that thoughts not unlike the above follow the cure of a common case as naturally as men think at all; and it is not until the in lividual lias witnessed many cases that be can fully realize the truth; mid even then tie may conclude them .■•II very t itiing cases, which would have readily yielded to any simple medicine, yet persons, though they have n ilnis successful in perhaps hundreds of cases, must expect that tluve wil cases occur wli fn there is some organic or oral cause so great as to require particular attention, or though success til in reducing the fever, it will again rise as the influence of the “Fluid” [stsses off, as the exciting cause may still exist, it is to guard against disappointment m alien cases that 1 have given and frequently refer to what I have called a “ synopsis.'’ ncutarks mi Fevers in llcmral* On this subject 1 wish to be fully understood. By the term “ lovers,” 1 comprehend all febrile affections to width the huuiau frame is subject, including small j„ x audether eruptive feversj but as they ajtse by a giest variety of causes, and iu quite dissimilar constitutions and babi s, tb y of course differ considerably in tfieir development and exhibit a variety of forms or types; yet all are distinguished by tile same general character istic*—tiiat o undue excitement in the circulatory and nervous systems—inducing more or less unnatural fre quency iu the pulse, sense of heat, dryness of ttie skin, debility, Ac. To show that 1 am not wholly alone iu the opinion 1 advance, I quote from the celehrufed I’rof. T. Watson, o kings College, London, whose work on the •• iTiiici pics anil I’ractieoof Physic” ia a text book in many of iolr medical colleges, and consequently tlundard authority i>n pige (fill, he says:—‘‘We hear continual!,, both iu end otlt of I he prolessioit, different species of fever spo ken of.

Adynamic, Gustro-Euteric, and o forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, I am persuaded that the effect upon the mind ol all this sub-division, is bad und hurtful. It encourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre scribe for a disease according to its name. There is no liuof genuine distinction between continued fevers, that ran be relied on. They run insensibly into each will,-r. even the in ,st dissimilar of them, and are often t raceable to the same cause.” The above is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance and 1 would impress on your minds the folly of hunting up or troubling you soil’ alaml a “mom;” if you have fever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and you •dill be well .nstead of any distiuetcharacter being devel oped, so as to be properly named by tile most scientific. This assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula lions or visions of miuil, but on experience at the bed side of the sick, ill hundreds, uye, thousands of cases (by myself and others) 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 ho freed from all dread of linger ing and dangerous levers. Blit as cases may have be come developed before the ” Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under some other treatment, 1 will describe is briefly as possible the proper course to be pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though the” Buies’ aud “ Synopsis” will ho amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon the sick. Hides important to be observed in all canes in using the Negative Electric fluid. Ist. It should be given iu three or four times its own quantity of water, and may he sweetened or not at pleasure. 2d. Patients must ho tree from all currents of air, (though there should alwuys be free ventilation in the sick room,; nor attempt to go about while under its in fluence. lid. It must bo continued whenover the fever subsides, or is evidently pussing off; to be resumed when il begins to rise again, should.such lie the case under any circumstances. till. When the fever begins to subside, patients must bo left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should not be questioned as to their wants nr feelings, nor attempt to converse, read or tukc any exercise whatevei t'll their own natural feelings, independent of all extra neous influences, iiuluce them to rise or speak; uoi should any couversatiou be allowed in thedr hearing, in which they may fed more or less interested, but be left quie to all intents and purposes. ~th.

Should patients experience any oppression or faintness while in the lying posture, so us to occasion a costlessness after the fever luus passed oil', or enough to occasion them to speak of it, they should have a little wine, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade with a little rpirit, ginger, or some other stimulant; or the face aud breast may he bathed in cold water; either of which will give immediate relief.

Old persons do not require as much as young, or those in the prime of life; net females, as u general rule, as much as males. There is no particular care necessary in giving it to children—those of ten years of age frequently having taken lull doses; but for a little guide. 1 have given the above table, with the remark that, as a general rule, children require more than adults in proportion. By observing the above directions, the medicine will tie found agreeable in all of its effects, the expectation.- of the most sanguine realized, and many perfect!) astonished. My object In lieing thus particular is, thin the full benefit of the medicine may be obtained, and not ou account of any actual necessity of such strict ob servances. ItiliouH or Remittent Fever. Give a teosuoiiful of “ Fluid” (see rule Ist) once in two hours, t il tho fovor is evidently passitig off; this - (institutes the whole treatment iu all simple cases ol fever, wiilt such observances as are set forth in tin •• Rules.” Hut should there be prominent local symp toms, or known local existing causes, they should b, attended to at once, aud while giving the “ Fluid.’ See Synopsis. If in any cac the b-nvol* are particularly constipated or conflued. give a enthartia (see auxiliaries) with tin tlr*t portion ; they must he opened or the fever may risi again. Where the fever is very high, pulse running 110 oi upwards, aud the patient ia uot particularly suseeptibl, to the influence of medicine—not easily operated on b) medicine generally—a double dose, or two teaspoousfu) may lie given at first with advantage, and even tepeated ut two hours—if it—the pulse—has not been tint* showing tli” medicine bus taken effect. Bathing the surface with water at an agreeable temperature, the saline wash, vinegar or spirits atm water, in thesedllfieult cases, will afford relief and aid the medicine much in taking effect. Congestive Fever. Give two teasp ionsful ami repeat every two hours till the pulse becomes more full and soft then only a tea sno.iufUl, to be discontinued us the fever subside). A* the bowels are generally confined, and it is frequentl) eery difficult to get me,licitte to operate in this disease no time should be lost to get them Open, give some actlvi cathartic witli the “ Fluid” and repeat as may be m-ees eary till it operates; enemas (injections) may also b, used tu advantage: also, mustard to the extremities, ot friction (rubbing) with the bands or flannel; also, cold oppllc itiotis to the head. Quinine may he added to tin “ Fluid” if thought mlvisablo. See Synopsis. Nervous Fever, Typhus. Ship and Putrid or Spotted Fever. As these fevers are all of one character, differing mainly in degree, being all of a low grade, the puls, small and wiry, with a general great depression, there is no practical u*e in separating them—at least so far as m,v treatment is concerned. In these low fevers, when fully developed, a little patience will he required: still comparatively little, as they frequently run weeks under the common treatment, while with this hat a few day) will be necessary ut longest to establish a permanent convalescence. The treatment should he commenced—which may immediately follow any other without detriment—with a U)*s|>->unful of •* Fluid” every two hours, till the pulse bjcotne. fuller or lager in volume, then to be continued \ucs in sis or sight hours till tfu fever entirely su!-aides. In bad cases, from three to five grains each of quinine und capsicum (Cayenne pepper) or some tonic aud stimu lant (see auxiliaries) should ho added tu each dose. The bowels should be kept gently open, and small portions of some hepatic should he given ,s:casiotially, even though the bowels should be very loose The patient should he sustained by nourishing aud mueilageuous drinks—such as arc in common use iu such cases.— Where the skin is very dry, sponging the surface as di rected in bilious fever, will tie found advantageous. Tonics should be used during convalescence, iu all casts which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lung or Winter Fever. Given teaspoonful of the “Fluid” every two hours, with a wine-glassful of a strong decoction of honeset; or half the quantity may be given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say once iu six or eight hours. The honeset tea should he given warm till the violent symptoms are allayed, or the patient is relieved; then cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, or something ol the kind, to be applied over the seat of pain; keep the bowels gently open. Variola, Varioloid, Rubeola and Scarla tina; or Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles, and Scarlet Fever. As all of these discuses are attended with fever, which in fuct is the must prominent symptom, the treatment differs hue little from tiiat of common levers. Kemember never wait to learn the “ tuime ,” whether it is one or the other, or neither, as they nil commence with Jem-, hut treat it at once; govern the fever aud there will bo no trouble; there will be but little eruption even iu small pox. This, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubtless will be regarded with ridicule by many. 1 nevertheless boldly make tiie assertion, that smuli pox, if treated iu> 1 direct, will be cut short; attended with but little erup tion; little or no pitting, and that there is no necessity ol its running its ordinary course. On this I will slake not only my reputation, but a 1 that 1 hold most dear, besides, on this subject, 1 have good authority; tiiat ol Prof. Watson, previously quoted. He says, page 674; “ Vou may abate the force of the eruptive lever, and keep down, it is believed, the number oj the pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Here is the admission lout it nut) be done, i nave not only proven it may be, but hat been done iu numerous cases that occurred on board ship. See the account appended. Uive a teaspoouful or more, according to the urgency of the case, with a dose of sails or castor oil; repeat tin Fluid once in two hours if necessary, until the fever sub sides—though one or two doses is genera ly sufficient; out it should be given and repeated sufficiently to keep the lever under control. W lieu the throat is affected, auy of the ordinary gargles may be used, and the surface bathed, as thought advisable. In one case, ou the ship Duchess d’Orlcans, the tongue and faucu* were so much swollen that the patient could not swallow or speak, and he was cured by dropping the Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow, w to-n n was given in teaspoonful doses every hour, till ail alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling ol the throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment in about twelve hours by the Fluid alone.— Used to wet the throat frequently, it is doubtless the i+st gurgle in all such coses. Puerperal or ChiltUicd Fever. This heretofore painful, daugerous and alarming malady tu which the mot Iter is liable, will yield to tin Negative tdectriC Fluid with sucli readmes-., as to seen, to oe of little consequence. A single dose or two of a teaspoouful, almost invariably giving entire aud per manent relief; no alarm need be entertained, us the Fluid will arrest it in u short time. It should he re pented ns long us the f-ver continues, as iu other cases. The bowels ol course should he attended to. In connection with this subject, I cannot refrain from making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by tiie todies, will save them much pain and suffering. It is to inform them of the happy effect of the Fluid iu initny of their trials. In child-birth, its relaxing atm southing effect deprives the labor of much of its pains aud difficulties; it must be tried to he appreciated.— Painful menstruation will he relieved at once by a com mon dose aud retiring. Itestlessness, nervous irritability, or a cold taken at u delicate time, is easily relieved by its use; in short, it is one of the most convenient and effectual remedies for many of the ills of females, if nui tiie most so of any medicine known. Its effect is uniform relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability and iritability of the nervous us well as the circulatory It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth aim quiet tiie system so that one can sleep naturally and healthy ; hence its 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 the condition called lever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to tin name it may be or ought to lie called, it should he giv en wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot be ex pected to control all organic or local causes, which, when sucli exist, must be removed in order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any case, they should be appropriate means, and these sohuld be given while giving the “ Fluid,” and in connection with it, when occasion requires, as they will then more readily act. producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary time will then he lost As the ‘, Fluid” alone will sub due the lever, 1 call all else auxiliary treatment. If tiie bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) with the tirst dose, or soon alter, and should it liiil to operate in duo time, repeat tiie dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something known to he good foi that complaint, though if caused by irritability, the “ Fluid” will soon relieve tiiat condition ; if severe local pain or inflammation, apply some stimulating liniment, a mustard piaster, a blister, fomentations of bitter herbs or, perhaps, cloths wet in cold water, to the part; il violent pain in the head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe die feet in hut water; if the fever is very high, skin dry and hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe the whole surface with water ut an agreeable temperature; •‘tiie saline wash,” vinegar and water or spirits ami water, either will afford great relief and aid the medi cine iu taking effect, after which there will ho no trou ble; if the patient has been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics aud stimulants, particularly in low levers, in absence of fever or when indicated; also, during convalescence, when the patient lias become re duced ; if there is unu* a und vomiting, tiiat must be allayed before any medicine will remuiu on the stomach to do any good; for this purpose 1 generally give some gentle emetic to cleans* the stomach ; warm water, il given plentifully, will answer every purpose; when the stomach lias settled, give the “ Fluid” aud a cathartic il necessary; in short, treat uli the prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giving the Fluid” at tiie same time as directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till you have seen, and then you will be astonished at the ease with 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. 1 have found uo such necessity when using the Fluid, and to be tully understood by all, 1 will name ft tew of t lie different articles of medi cine 1 have referred 10, viz : Cat liartlcs.—Articles that purge or operate on the bowels, such ms castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots or barks, ami many pills, untihiliuus, Ac.: anything known to be good for sucli purposes. Hepatic*.—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 iu connection with the “ Fluid” or while the system is under its in fluence. And one may choose calomel—another, blue mass—the third, podoph) Bin—tile fourth, mandrake root, and so ou; each may take his choice and be suc cessful. Tonic*.—Articles that give tone or strength, such os quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. Hone ie. or thoroughwurt is one of the best used in fever*. Astringents.—Such as check the action of the bowels. Laudanum und 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 one of the beat; ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac,, the essences are all more <r less stimu atiug These are the only classes necessa ry iu treating fevers, though many others are generally used, but the Negative Electric Fluid is a bet’er “dia phoretic.’’ ’■ anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” aud ‘ sedative” than known in the materia medica. I shall not tax the reader with a long list of proofs, lopendiug mainly on the results of a trial, and will only refer to one instance of success, that on the Packctship Duchess D’Orlenns. which cannot lie classed among ordinary certificates: We, the undersigned, certify to Hie following, viz We took passage on the packetship Duchess - d'Dl'leans, Copt Hutton, then lying in the port of Havre. France iml bound fur New York. She sailed on the tub of Au gust, 1861, with over a hundred soul* on board, mostly emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, the small pox broke out itutoug the emigrants. They were all treated by tile physician in charge. Dr. N. W. Seat, with anew remedy of his 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, and curing ,n a very short time. During Hie voyage, which lasted thirty-nine days, here were about eighty cases of small pox, some fever, vc.. and not a single death. All were cured w ith unu mat promptness. From VI bat we saw during said passage, we are fully •otivinevd that the medicine used by Dr. Seat on the oc casion, possesses inestimable virtues.
