NEGATIVE ELECTRIC FLUID,
Prepared by N. W. beat, M. U.
Reason ; why it should Ite used instead ol any other treat-
Wi Bt In all V. I.rile affections :
lnt.— Ut'uainy of Time.— An only one-seventh
“f Uni iN.liiiary Uiuu is ruquirod to effect a cure.
3 <1 —Economy or Money.— A* it cost* but oue
dollar.
ilril.-Ecouomy of Keeling.~A* it Haven tiie
-uttering of it long sickness ituil tile consequent treat
mem j ilia uiiiKiyunce of taking nauseating dune! of
nunlicitiu, tlieir disagreeable operation, and the pain of
I >ug coaiinoiußut; but little of the fluid being necessary,
i.ul that pleasant in its effect*.
4th. — Keouoiny of Thought.— As when
liuown, it will remove all dread and anxiety at present
existing, respecting febrile affections; particularly while
a dear friend is sick.
rlh.— Kruuomy of Health.— As the system
is not reduced, mid consequently raeked; nor is the fever
subject to be followed by clironic disease.
Oth. — Kcottomy of Life. —As the euro is effected
before ml without reducing the putiunt, consequently
removing, in a corresponding degree, all danger of a fatal
termination.
Ollier reason* might be added, but these uro deemed
.ullii'icut to satisfy all classes uud persons in all condi
tions of life.
The above reasons arc moro purticuiarly applicable to
the iiuiuediuUi treatment on the first attack, hut will
apply with equal force to cases which have been subject
ed to or have become reduced, corresponding of course
‘0 the miluro of the coho at the time ft is first adminis
tered..
As tills remedy gives so prompt, effectual and permit*
nout relief, in ullordinary coses, when used soon after
til-, attack, persons can scarcely realize that they had
boon r-ally much sick, and very uuturaily conclude they
wore not attacked w *th fever, mid if so, “it was trifling
a little cold, which guve alarm—it could have been
Mottling of consequence—it would huve passed off with
nit anything—that medicine had no effect.” The general
iiuprcssiou <>u tile subject of fever is sucii, that thoughts
n it unlike the above follow the cure of a common case
’ naturally as men think at all; and it is not until
hu individual has witnessed many cases that lie can fully
iistii/.e the truth; and even then he may conclude them
..It very lulling esses, which would have readily yielded
to any simple medicine, yet persons, though they have
1.. K-U thus successful in perhaps hundreds of cases, must
expect that there will cases occur where there is some
organic or local cause so great as to require particular
utleatiou, or though suciVss.ul in reducing the fever,
it will again rise us the Influence of the “ Fluid” passes
off, as iiiu eliciting causu may still exist. It is to guard
against disappointment in such cuses that 1 have given
and frequently refer to wlrnt 1 have called a “ synopsis.”
Krmarks ou Fevers In General*
On this subject I wish to be fully understood, lfy the
term “fevers,” i comprehend all fubrilu affectious to
which the human frame is subject, including small pox
mid other eruptive fevers; but os they arise by a groat
variety el’ causes, and in quite dissimilar constitutions
mul habits, tln-y of course differ considerably in their
development and exhibit a variety of forms or types;
yet all are distinguished by the same general character
istic*—-Unit ol undue excitement in the circulatory and
iim viiiis systems—inducing more or less unnatural fre
qVieitcy in the pulse, sense of heat, dryness of the skin,
debility, AC.
To show that i aui not wholly alone in the opinion 1
ch ance. 1 quote front the celebrufed Prof. T. Watson,
of King's-College, London, whose work on the “ Princi
ples and I'raelice of i'hysic” is a text book In many of
our medical collages, and consequently tbitulardauthority.
On page 834, ho says:—“ We hear continually, both in
and out of tiie profession, different species of fever spo
ken of. lty the public, Typhus Fever, llralii Fever,
Itilioiis Fever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever,
Ac. And systematic writers are to the full us particular:
Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Castro-Enteric, uud
so forth. Now. admitting that fever shows itself under
various forms, 1 mu persuaded that the effect upon the
mind of all this sub-division, is bud and hurtful. It
encourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre
scribo for a disease according to its name. There is no
line of genuine distinction between continued fevers,
Unit ran lie relied on. They rtm insensibly into each
ol her, even tiie mast dissimilar of them, and are often
II ; trouble to the same cause.”
The above is a great fai t, one worthy of remembrance
and 1 would iuypreM on your minds the folly of hunting
up or troubling yourself about a “name;” if you have
favor, treat it at once ns hereafter directed, and you
i"iU be well instead of auy distinetcharaoter being devel
oped, sons to be properly named by the most scientific.
Tli is 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 ami others) under a great variety of cir
cumstances, season* and climates. Bear this in mind,
and treat at one* without regard to ianne, and rest
assured you will soon bo freed from all dread of linger
ing uud dangerous fevers, lint as cuses may have be
come developed before the “ Fluid” is given, either by
neglect, or under somu other treatment, I will describe
as briefly as possible the proper course to be pursued iu
all of the most prominent fevers, though the “ Rules”
mid “Synopsis” will lie amply sufficient for all those
uccjuitumed to attendance upon the sick.
Kales important to be. observed in ail cases in using the
Negative Electric Fluid.
Ist. It should he given in three or four times its own
quantity of water, mid may be sweetened or not at
pleasure.
2d. i’atients must be free from all current! of air,
(though there should always be free ventilation in the
sick Voom,) nor attempt to go about while under its in
fluence.
:id. It must lie continued whouever the fever subsides,
r is evidently passing off; to bo resumed when it
begins to rise again, Blumld such lie the case under any
circumstances.
4th. When tiie fever begins to subside, patients must
be left perlhclly quiet; free from all excitement; should
not bo questioned us to their wants or feelings, nor
ulLoupt to converse, read or take auy exercise whatever,
till tlieir own natural feelings, independent of ail extra
neous influences, imtuce them to rise or speuk; nor
should any conversation be allowed in their hearing, in
which they may fuel more or less interested, but be left
quiet to all intents and purposes.
oth. Fluids should he allowed, while giving it as
plentifully, ami us long as the patient desires and no
longer; they may consist of cold wuter, mucilaginous
drinks, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, either
. , old or warm. US parties may prefer or patients desire.
. tilli. Should patients experience any oppression or
bliutuoss while iu thu lying posture, so as to occusiun a
restlessness after tho fever has passed off, or enough to
occasion them to speuk of it, they should have a little
wiuo, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade with a little
spirit, ginger, or some other stimulant; or the face and
locust maybe lathed in cold water; either of which
will give immediate relief.
TABLE OF DOSES.
For children of oue year or under, from 3 to 8 drops.
“ over 1 and under 2 years, “ bto 15 “
“ “ 2 “ 5 “ “ 12 to 30
“ “ 6 “ 10 “ “ 20 to 60 “
“ “ 8 “ 15 half to a teaspoonful.
All persons over fifteen considered us adults, for whom
a touspoonful is a common dose. Old persons do not
require us much as young, or those in the prime of life;
it or females, os a general rule, as much us males.
There is no particular care necessary Iu giving it to
children—those often years of age frequently having
taken full doses; but fur a little guide, 1 have given the
uLhjvo table, with the remark that, as a general rule,
i hildruu require more than adults in proportion.
By observing the above directions, the medicine will
lie tound agreeable in all of its effects, tho expectations
of the most siiuguino realized, and many perfectly
astonished. My object in being thus particular is, that
tin- full benefit of the medicine may be obtained, and
not ou account of any actual necessity of such strict ob
servances.
Hiltons or Remittent Fever,
Give a teaspouful of “Fluid” (see rule Ist) one* in
two hours, till the fever is evidently passing off; this
constitutes tho whole treatment in all simple eases of
lover, with such observances us are sot forth iu the
-- Utiles.” But should there he prominent local symp
toms, or known local existing causes, they should U<
attended to at once, uud while giving the “Fluid.”
Seo Synopsis.
If in auy case the bowels are particularly constiiiatod
or confined, give a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the
first portion; they must be opened or the fever limy rise
again. •
Where the fever is very high, pulse running 110 or
upwards, uud the patient is not particularly susceptible
to the Inttuftßce of medicine—not easily o|ierated on by
uifidicino generally—a double dose, or two toaspoonaful
may be given at first with advantage, and even repeated
in two hours—if it—tho pulse—has not been softened,
thus showing thu mudiciue lias takeu effect.
Bathing the surface with water at an agreeable
temperature, tho saline wash, vinegar or spirits and
water, iu thoso difficult cases, will afford relief and aid
the medicine much iu taking effect.
Cengestive Fever,
(live two teaspoonsfril and repeat every two hours till
tho pulse becomesmore full and soft, then only a tea
spoonful, to bo discontinued as the fever subsides. As
ibe bowels are generally confined, and it is frequently
very difficult to get medicine to operate In this disease,
no time slionld be lost to get them open, give some active
cathartic with the “Fluid” aud repeat us may be neces
sary till it operates; enemas (injections) may also lie
mod to advantage; nleo, mustard to the extremities, or
friction (rubbing) with the hands or flannel; else, cold
ipplioatkme to tho head. Quinine may be added to the
“Pi ft Id” if thought advisable. See Synopsis.
Nervoas Fever, Typhus, Ship and Putrid
or Spotted Fever.
As these fevers are all of one character, differing
niniuly in degree, being all of a low grade, the pulse
stuail and wiry, with a general great depression, there Is
to practical uso in separating them—at least so far as
my treatment Is concerned. In these low fevers, when
fully developed, a little patience will be required; still
comparatively little, as they frequently run weekiunder
tl> common treatment, while with this but a few days
Will be necessary at longest to establish a permanent
eosivnleaernce.
The treatment should be commenc'd—which may
immediately follow any other without detriment with
a teaspoonfril of “ Fluid'’ every two hours, till the pulse
becomes fuller or larger in volume, then to be continued
Vice In six or eight hours Ull the fever entirely subaides.
In bod cases, from three to five grains each of quinine
aud capsicum (Cayenne pepper) or some tonic and stimu
lant (see auxiliaries) should be added to curb dose. Tbe
bowels should be kept gently open, and small portions
of some hepatic should be given occasionally, even
though the bowels should bo very loose. Tbe patient
should bo sustained by nourishing and lnuoilogenuus
drinks—sucii us are in common use in such cases.—-
Where the skin is very dry, sponging the surface as di
rected in bilious fever, will be found advantageous.
Tonics should he used during convalescence, iu ull coses
wtiloli have become reduced.
Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lung
or Winter Fever.
Give a tcaspoonful of tho “Fluid” every two hours,
with a wine-glassful ofa strong decoction of boueset; or
half tho quantity may be given overy hour till relieved,
then, at longer intervals, Hay once iu six or eight hours.
Tbe boneset ton should bo given warm till tbe violent
symptoms are allayed, or tiie patient is relieved; then
cold; fomentations, muxtard plaster, or something of
the kind, to bo applied over the seat of jiu; keep the
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 fever, which
in fact is the most prominent symptom, the treatment
differs Ime little from that of common levers. Remember
never wait to learn the “ name .” whether it is one or the
other, or neither, us they all commence with jever, but
treat It ut once; govern the fever arid there w ill be no
trouble; there will he Out tittle eruption Ain iu small
pox. This, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubt Less
will he regarded with ridicule by many. 1 nevertheless
boldly make tiie assertion, that small pox, if treated .is
1 direct, will be cut slu/rl; atteudod with hut little erup
tion; little or no pitting, and that there is no neeeiiity of
its running its ordinary course. On this 1 will stake
not only my reputation, hut n.l tliut 1 hold most dear;
besides, ou this subject, 1 have good authority; tiiat of
Prof. Watson, previously quoted. He says, page 874:
“You may abate the force of tho eruptive lever, and
keep down, it Is believed, tile number of the pustules by
spline purges, Ac.” Hero is tiie admission that it may
be done. 1 nuvo not only proven it may be, but has
been done ill numerous coses that occurred on board
ship. See the account appended.
Give a teaspoouful or uioro, uncording to the urgency
of the case, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat the
Fluid once In two hours if necessary, until the fever sub
sides—though one or two doses is generally sufficient;
but it should be given and repeated sufficiently to keep
the fever under control. When the tiiroat is affected,
any of the ordinary gargles may be used, aud tiie
surface bathed, us thought advisable.
In one case, ou thu ship Duchess d’Grleans, the tougue
and faucus were so much swollen that the patient could
not swallow or speak, uud he was cured by dropping tho
Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow,
when it was given iu teusjioouful doses every hour, till
all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of
the throat was reduced so os to enable him to take nour
ishment in about twelve hours by the Fluid alone.—
Used to wet the throat frequently, it is doubtless tiie
best gurgle in all such cases.
Puerperal or Childbed Fever.
This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming
malady to which tlm mother is liable, will yield to the
Negative Electric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem
to be of little consequence. A single dose or two of a
teaspoouful, almost invariably giving entire and per
manent relief; no alarm need bo entertained, us tbe
Fluid will arrest it iu a short time. It bliould be re
peated as long as tiie saver continues, as in other cuses.
The bowels of course should lie attended to.
In connection with this subject, 1 cannot refrain from
making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by
the ladies, will save them much pain and Buttering. It
is to inform them of the happy effect of the Fluid iu
many of their trials. In child-birth, its relaxing and
soothing effect deprives the labor of much of its pains
and difficulties; it must be tried to be appreciated.—
Painful menstruation will be relieved at once by a com
mon dose aud retiring. Restlessness, nervous irritability,
ora cold takeu at a delicate time, is easily relieved by
its use; in short, it is one of the most convenient and
eilectuoi remedies foruiuuy of the ills of females, if not
the most so of any mudiciue known. Its effect is uniform,
relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability
and iritability of the nervous us well as tho circulatory.
It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth und
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 the treat
ment as much as possible, I give undpr this head general
directions for all cases. As tho Negative Electric Fluid
will change tiie condition called fever, or subdue uud
control it under all circumstances, without regard to the
name, it may ho or ought to he called, it should be giveu
wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot be ex
pected to control all organic or local causes, which,
wbon such exist, must be removed iu order to effect u
permanent cure.
When such indications occur iu any case, thoy should
be appropriate means, and those soiiuid be given while
giving the “Fluid,” and in connection with it, when
occasion requires, us 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 the lover, I call all else auxiliary treatment.
If the bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili
aries) with the first dose, or soon after, aud should it
fail to operato in due time, repeat the dose; if attended
witli diarrhu-a, give something known to bo good for
that complaint, though if cuused by irritability, the
“ Fluid” will soon relieve that condition; if severe local
pain or inflammation, apply some stimulating liniment,
a mustard plnster, a blister, fomentations of hitter herbs,
or, perhaps, cloths wet in cold water, to tho part; if
violent pain in the head, apply cold water, ico 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, sponge or bathe tiie
whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature;
“tiie saline wash,” vinegar and water or spirits and
water, either will afford great relief and aid the medi
cine in taking effect, after which thero will be no trou
ble ; If the patient has been reduced or is much prostra
ted, give tonics ami stimulants, particularly in low
fevers, in absence of fever or wlicu 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 I generally give some
gentle emetic to cleanse the stomach; warm water, if
giveu plentifully, will answer every purpose; when the
stomach has settled, give the “ Fluid” uud a cut hart ic if
necessary; in short, treat all the prominent symptoms
as you would under any other circumstances, giving the
“Fluid” at the 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 no such necessity
when using the Fluid, and to be fully understood by
all, 1 will name a tew of the different artioles of medi
cine I have referred to, viz:—
Cathartic*. —Articles that purge or operate on the
bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots
or barks, aud many pills, antibilious, Ac.; anything
known to lie good for such purposes.
Hepatic*.— Anything known to act on the liver
particularly, portal circulation mid secretion* generally.
Any of the articles depended ou by the different schools
for this pur|Kise, will answer when used iu connection
with the “ Fluid” or while the system is under its in
fluence. Aud one may choose calomel—another, blue
mass—the third, podophyllin—the fourth, mandrake
root, aud so on; each may take bis choice and be suc
cessful.
Tonic*. —Articles that give tone or strength, such
as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs, llone
set or thorougliwort Is ono of the best used in fevers.
Astringent*.—Such as check the action of the
bowels. Laudanum and other preparations of opium are
used; also, many mixtures not property astringents,
which have the effect.
Stimulant*. —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 iu treating fevers, though many others are generally
used, but the Negative Electric Fluid is a better ••dia
phoretic,” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and
“ sedative” thu known in tho nuiteria medico.
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 oue Instance of success, tliut on the
Paclxetshlp Duche** D’Orleans.
which cannot be classed among ordinary certificate*:
We, the undersigned, certify to the following, viz—
We took passage on the packetship Duchess d’Orlenns
Capt Hutton, then lying iu the port or Havre, France,
and bound for New York. She sailed on tlu> 9th of Au
gust, I*sl, with over a hundred souls on board, mostly
emigrants- A few days alter leaving Havre, the small
pox broke out among the emigrants, They were ull
treated by the physician in charge. Dr. N. W. Sent, with
anew remedy ofhis own, which lie calls Negative Elec
tric Fluid, with which he seemed to have entire control
over the disease, arresting it in a few hours, and curing
in a very short time.
During the voyage, which lasted tliirty-nine dnvs,
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 we saw during said passage, we are frilly
convinced that the medicine used by Dr. Seat on the oc
casion, possesses Inestimable virtues. We never before
heard or read of febrile affections lielug controlled with
so much ease, promptness and certainty, or so little
trouble to the nurse. A crowded elifp, a long iiaseage,
small pox and fever on board, aud not a death! The
fart speaks for itself.

Dear Sir—The public generally are fully aware of the
thousands of remedies fur Diseased Lungs, under the titles
of Sarsaporillos, Pills, Plasters. Liniments, Ac., that are

who are afflicted, to use oue that coutains articles of
Heul Use iu Pulmonary IHs-ases. lam conscious that iu
so doing, 1 am acting most luiprofcssionully, and deroga
torlly to the interests of Medical Science and the regular

0. 0. Woodman—Dear Sir; 1 have given your Cherry
Expectorant a fair trial and am well pleased with its ef
fects; better than any other article I ever met with. I
would lie pleased to have you send me half a dozen bot
tles by the bearer. Respectfully.

This preparation lias attained a wide celebrity from
the universal success which has attended its use. For
coughs, colds, and in fact, any pulmonary complaints,
this medicine, from its peculiar properties as a dissolvent
and its soothing power to all irritations of the throat,
will probably he preferred to any other offered to the
public. As an appetizer, or dyspeptic remedy, it will
also be found excellent, its natural and genial warmth
keeping the digestive powers iu proper tone.
Remember that this is the only Gough Medicine that
lias stood the test of the medical fraternity. It is sanc
tioned by, approved of. and recommended by tho leading
Physicians of New Y'ork city. Every bottle is warranted
to give satisfaction or tho money refunded. We guaran
tee it to be better than any Cherry Pectoral, Cod Liver
Oil. or anything else now extant.
