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.

RECOMMENDATIONS. Nkw (Kuans. April 9, 1855. 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 dally brought to tlieir notice through the newspapers by wav of advertisements. My ohjert in writing this note for publication, is to induce the public, or at least tiiose 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 Practitioners of Medicine. I refer to Woodman’s Cherry Expectorant, which is u scientific remedy that I have used with more success than any of the usual prescrip tions used by Physicians. J. M. Maitland, M. D. Gallatin, Miss.. May 1, 1860. 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. W. M. Mason, M. D. 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.
