Itli. —Economy of Thought. —As when known, it will remove all dread and anxiety at present existing, respecting febrile affections; particularly while a dear friend is sick. sth.—Economy of Health.— As the system Is not reduced, and consequently racked; nor is the fever subject to he followed by chronic disease.

Other reasons might he added, but these are deemed ruiflcient to satisfy all classes and persons in all Condi -I,ions of life. The above reasons are more particularly applicable to the immediate treatment on the first attack, but will ipply with equal force to cases which have been subject 'd tu nr have liocnmu reduced, corresponding of course ‘o the nature ul'tho case at IhoUino it Is first adminis tered. As this remedy gives so prompt, effectual and perma i.eiit relief, in all ordinary cases, when used soon after • lit) attack, p<i iis cau scarcely realize that they had been really much sick, and very naturally conclude they war not attacked with fever, and if so, “it was trifling —a little cold, which gave alarm—it could have been nothing of consequence—it would have passed off wilh nci anything —that medicine had ltueffect.” ‘flic general impression on the subject of fever le such, that thoughts not unlike thu above follow the cure of a common case naturally as men think at all; and It is not until | be individual has witnessed many eases that lie can fully raluo the truth; and even then he may conclude them ail very ti ifltng cases, which would have readily yielded tr, any simple medicine, yet persons, though they have I ’eii thus successful In perhaps hundreds of cases, niUßt ,-i, that th ro will casus occur win ro there is some organic or local cause so great us to require particular attention, or though sucooss ul in reducing tho fever, it will again ihe as the influence of the “ Fluid” passes off, as the exalting cause may still exist. It is to guard agaitist disappointment in such casus that 1 have given and frequently refer to whittl have called a “ synopsis.” Kemarks on ii’evers In General* Un this subject i wish to liu fully understood, lly the term “fevers,” I comprehend all febrile affections to winch tlio 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 liabiis, they of course differ considerably in their development and exhibit a variety of forms or types; y. t all are distinguished by the same general character istics—that oi uuduo excitement in thu circulatory anil nervous systems—inducing more or less unnatural fre quency in the pulse, sense of beat, dryness of the skin, debility, Ac. To snow that 1 am not wholly alone in tho opinion I advance, 1 quotu from tho celebrated Prof. T. W atson, of icing's College, London, whose work on the •• Princi ple and Practice of Physic” is a text book in many of mil’ medical colleges, and consequently staiuiwnl author Uy. On page Si.ll, hesays:—“Wo bear cuulluuailt, both in and out of the profession, different species of fever spo lieu of. By the public, Typhus fever, llruln Fever, Bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Xervou.i Fever, . And systematic writers are to llie lull as particular: Mur.ms Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, (lastro-Kiitoric, and u. i'ni'lh. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, I urn persuaded that the effect upon tho mind of all this sub-division, is bad and hurtful. It ('iicourag, s a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre ntribo lor a disease according to its name. There is no Ini.-! of gonline distinction between continued fevers, that Clin ho relied oil. They run insensibly into each etiflir, even tho most dissimilar of them, and are often t raceubJo to tho same cause.” The above is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance and I would impress on your minds the folly of hunting up or troubling yourself about a “ name;” if you have fever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and you will le'. well instead of any dlatinctcliarnctcr being devel oped, so as to be properly named by the most scientific, “’his assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula tions or visious of mind, but ou experience at the bed side id’ the sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands of cases (by myself and others) under a great variety of cir cumstances, seasons and climates. Hear this in mind, and treat at once without regard to name, and rest assured yen will soon he freed from all dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers. But as cases may have bo -I,uue developed before tho “Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under soma other treatment, I will describe as briefly as possible the proper course to be pursued in all of the most prominent levers, though the “ ltules” andSynopsis” will ho amply sutllcieut for all thoso accustomed to attendance upon the sick. Hales important to be. observed in all cases in using the Negative Hlectric Fluid. Ist. It should be given in three or four times its own quantity of water, and may bo sweetened or not at pleasure. 2d. Patients must l>o freo from all current* of air, (though there should always he freo ventilation in the sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in fluence. l!,l. It must bo continued whenever tho fever subsides, or is evidently ]iassiug off; to be resumed when it begins to rise again, should such Iki tho case under any circumstances. Itli. When the fever begins to subside, patients must l,e 101 l perfectly quiet; freo from all excitement; should not ho questioned as to their wants or feelings, nor attempt to converse, read or take any exercise whatever, till their own natural feelings, independent of all extra neous influences, induce them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation he allowed in their hearing, in w.e ‘ll they may feel more or less interested, lmt he left quiet to all intents and purposes. bill. I'Tuids should bo allowed, while giving it as plentifully, and as long as the patient desires and no longer; they may consist of cold water, mucilaginous drinks, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, either c.i1.1 or warm, as parties may prefer or patients desire. bill. Should patients experience any oppression or faintness while in the lying posture, so as to ‘occasion a restlessness after the fever has passed elf, er enough to • ‘.ecasiou t horn to speak of it, they should have a little wine, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade with a little spirit, ginger, or some other stimulant; or the face and breast maybe bathed in cold water; either of which will give immediate relief. TABLE OF DOSES. For children of one year or under, from 3 to 8 drops. “ over l and under 3 years, “ sto 15 “ “ 2 “ 5 “ VI to 30 “ “ 5 “ 10 “ “ 20 to 50 “ “ “ 8 “ 16 half to a teaspoonful. All persons over fifteen considered as adults, for whom i.as|HKinful is a common dose. Old persons do not n quire as much as young, or those in the prime of life; .‘or females, us a general rule, as much us males. Tin re is no particular care necessary in giving it to children—those of ten years of ago frequently having taken full doses; but for a little guide, l have given the •it-v ■ table, with the remark that, as a general rule, children require mere than adults in proportion. Uy observing tho above directions, the medicine will be fouud agreeable in all of Its effects, the expeotatlens of the most sanguine realised, and many perfectly astonished. My object iu being thus particular is, that the full benefit of the medicine may bo obtained, and not ou uecouut of any actual necessity of such strict ob servances. Bilious or Remittent Fever. (live a toaspouful of “ Fluid” (see rule Ist) once In two hours, till the fever is evidently passing off; this constitutes tho whole treatment in all simple cases of f-ver, with such observances as are set forth In the “ Buies.” But should there he prominent local symp tom''. or known local existing causes, they should be attended to at once, anil while giving the “Fluid.” 300 Synopsis. If in any case the bowels are particularly constipated or confined, give a cathartic (seo auxiliaries) with the first portion; they must bo opened or tbo fever may rise again. Whore the fever Is very high, pulse rnutiing 110 or upwards, ami the patient is not particularly susceptible to the influence es medicine —not easily operated on by medicine generally—a double dose, or two teaspoonsful may be given at first with advantage,and even repeated in two hour*—if it—the pulse—has not been softened , thus showing the medicare lias taken effect. ILittiiug the surface with water at an agreeable tv t ape rat ure, the saline wash, vinegar or spirits and w ater, iu these difficult eases, will afford relief aud aid the medicine much in taking effect. Congestive Fever. (live two toasp ionsful and repeat every two hours till the pulse becomes more full and soft, then only a tea .qiooul'ul, to be discontinued us the fever subside,. As Ibo bowels aro generally confined, and It Is frequently very difficult to get medicine to operate in this disease, no time should be lost to get them open, give some active ■ itli,trtic with the “ Fluid” aud repeat as may be neces sary till It operates: enemas (injections) may also be used to advantage; also, mustard to tire extremities, or frietloti (ruhblng) with the bauds or flannel; also, cold applications to the bead. Quinine may be added to the ” Fluid” If thought advisable. Seo Synopsis. Nervous Fever, Typhus, Ship and Putrid or Spotted Fever. As these fevers are ull of ono character, differing mainly in degree, being all of a low grade, tho pulse small amt wiry, with general great depression, there Is no practical use in separating them—at least so far as my treatment is concerned. Iu these low fevers, when fully developed, a little patience will l> required; still comparatively little, as they frequently run weeks under tlve common treatment, while with this but a few days will bo necessary at longest to establish a permanent convalescence. Tbo treatment should Ist commenced—which may immediately fellow any other without detriment with a tcaspoonful of “ Fluid” every two hours, till the pulse become* fuller or larger iu volume, then to be continued tnce in six or eight hours till tRe fever entirely subsides. In bad casos, from three to five grains each ol’ quinine and capsicum (Cayenne pepper) or some tonic and stimu lant (see auxiliaries) should bo added to each dose. The bowels should be kept gently open, and small portions of some hepatic shoulU be given occasionally, even though the bowels should be very loose. The patient should be sustained by nourishing and mucitagcuous drinks—such as are iu common uso in such cases.— Where the skin is very dry, sponging the surface as di rected in bilious fever, will bn found advantageous. Tonics should he used during convalescence, in all cases which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lung or Winter Fever. (live a toaspoonful of tho “Fluid” every two hours, with a wine-glassful of a strong decoction of boneset; or half the quantity may be given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, suy unco iu six or eight hours. Tho boneset tea should be given warm till tho violent symptoms are allayed, or the patient is relieved; then cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, or something of the kind, to lie 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 diseases are attended with fever, which in fact is the most prominent symptom, the treatment differs hue little from that of common fevers, liemeiuher never wait to learn the “ name,” whether it is oue or Hie other, or neither, as they ull commence with fever, but treat it at once; govern the fever and there will be no trouble; there will be but little eruption even in small pox. This, tomosl minds, is anew idea, and doubtless will be regarded with ridicule by many, i noverthclei.- boldly make the assertion, that small pox, if treated as I direct, will be cut short; attended w ith but little erup tion ; little or no pitting, and that there is no necessity ol its running its ordinary course. On this 1 will stake not only my reputation, but ail that 1 hold most dear; besides, on this subject, 1 have good authority; that oi Prof. Watson, previously quoted. l!o says, page 874: “You may abate the force of the eruptive lever, and keep down, it is believed, the number of the pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Hero is the admission tnut it may be dune. 1 nave not only proven it may be, but has been done iu numerous eases that occurred ou board ship. Seo the account appended. (live a teaspoonful or mere, according to the urgency of the case, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat the Fluid once in two lioura if necessary, untii the fever sub sides—though ono or two doses is generally sufficient; but it should he given aud repeated sufficiently to keep tho lover under control. When the tliroat is affected, any of the ordinary gargles may be used, and the surface bathed, as thought advisable. In one case, on tho chip Duchessd’Orleans, the tongue and faucus were so much swollen that the patient could not swallow or speak, aud he was cured by dropping the Fluid ou his tongue, drop by drop, till lie could swallow, wlieu it was given iu teaspoonful doses every hour, till all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of tlie tliroat was reduced no as to enable him to take nour ishment in, about twelve hours by tho Fluid alone.— Used to wet the throat frequently, it is doubtless the best gurgle in all such cases. Puerperal ur Childbed Fever. This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming malady to which tho 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 u teaspoonful, almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need be entertained, as lire Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should be re peated as long as the f-ver continues, as in other cases. The bowels of course should he 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 aud suffering. It is to inform them of tire happy effect of tlie Fluid in many of tlreir trials. In child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives tho labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must bo tried to be appreciated.— Painful menstruation will be relieved at once by a com mon dose aud retiring. Restlessness, nervous irritability, or a cold taken at a delicate time, is easily relieved by its use; in short, it is oue of tlie 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 and iritability of tbe nervous as well as tho circulatory. It will not forco sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and quiet tbo system so that ono can sleep naturally and healthy ; hence its uso 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 fever, or sulntuo and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name it may be or ought to he called, it should bo given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it canuot be ex pected to control ail organic or local causes, which, when such exist, must be removed iu order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any case, they should be appropriate means, and those sohnld he given while giving tho “ Fluid,” uuil in connection with it, when occasion requires, as they will then more readily act, producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary timo will then be lost. As tlie ‘, Fluid” alone will sub due the fever, I call all else auxiliary treatment. If tlie bowels al e costive, give a cathartic (seo auxili aries) with the first dose, or soon alter, and should it fail to operate in due time, repeat the dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something known to bo good for that complaint, though if caused by irritability, tho “Fluid” will soon relievo that condition; if severe local pain or inflammation, apply somo stimulating liniment, a mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of Bitter herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet in cold water, to tho part; if violent pain in the 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, spougo or bathe the whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature; “the saline wash,’* vinegar and water or spirits aud water, either will afford great relief and aid tho medi cine in taking effect, after which there will bo no trou ble ; if tlie patient has been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics and stimulants, particularly iu low fevers, in absence of fever or when indicated; also, during convalescence, when the patient has become re duced; if there is nausea and vomiting, that must lie allayed before any medicine will remain on tlie stomach to do any good; for this purpose I generally give some gentle emetic to cl ause the stomach; warm water, if given plentifully, will answer every purpose; when the stomach has settled, give the “ Fluid” and a cathartic if necessary; in short, treat all the prominent symptoms as you would under any other eireumstauces, 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 he astonished at the ease willi which you can control all febrile excitement. Auxiliaries. Parties may feel at a loss to know what is meant by cathartics, <U\, 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, I will name a lew of tho different articles of medi cine 1 have referred to, viz:— Cathartics.—Articles that purge or operate on tho (towels, such as castor oil, suits, senna, any of the roots or barks, and many lulls, antibilious, Ac.; anything known to be good forsuch purposes. llepatics.—Anything known to act on tho liver particularly, portal circulation and secretions generally. Any of tlie articles depended on by fhu different schools tor this purpose, will answer when used iu connection with tho “Fluid” or while tho system is under its in fluence. And one may choose calomel—another, blue mass—the third, podophyllin—the fourth, mandrake rout, aud so on; each may take his choice and be suc cessful. Tonics.—Articles that give tone or strength, such as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. Bone set WT tlioroughwort U oue of the best used in fevers. Astringents.—Such ns cheek the action of the bowels. Isiiidiuium and other preparations of opium are used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents, which have the effect. Stlmiilants.—Articles that raise or excite the system. Capsicum (CayeiAo pepper) is one of the best; ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., the essences aro all more or less stimulating. These are tho only classes necessa ry in treating fevers, though many others are generally used, but the Negative Electric Fluid is a better “dia phoretic,” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and “sedative” than known in the materia metlica. 1 shall not tax tho reader with a long list of proofs, depending mainly on tho results of a trial, and will ouly refer to one instance of success, that on the Packrtstilp Duchess D'Orleans. which cannot bo classed among ordinary certificates: We, the undersigned, certify to the’ following, viz We took passage on the packetshlp Duchess d'Orleans, Cupt Hutton, then lying in tlie port of Havre. France, and hound for New York. File sailed on the Oth of Au gust, 1851, with over a hundred souls on board, mostly emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, the small pox broke out among the emigrants. They were all treated by tho physician in charge, Dr. X. W. Seat, with anew remedy es his own, which lie culls 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 tlie voyage, which lasted thirty-nine .lavs, there were about eighty eases of small pox, some fiver, Ac., and not a single death All were cured with unu sual promptness. From what we saw during said passage, we are fully convinced that the medicine used by Dr. Seat on the oc casion, possesses Inestimable virtues. We never before heard or read of febrile affections being controlled with so much ease, promptness and certainty, or so little tronldo to the nurse.

Liniments, Ac., that are daily brought to tlreir notice through the newspapers by way of advertisements. My object iu writing this note for publication, is to induce tlie public, or at least those who are afflicted, to use one that contains articles of Real Use iu Pulmonary Diseases, lam conscious that iu so doing, 1 am acting most uiiprofi ssiotially.und derogu torily to the interests of Medical Science and tlie regular Practitioners of Medicine. I refer to Woodman’s Cherry Expectorant, which Is a scientific remedy that 1 iuive used witli more success tlmn any of tiie usual prescrip tions used by Physicians. J. M. Maitland, M. D.

Woodman —Dear Sir; 1 have given your Cherry Expectorant a fair trial aud am v, i ll pleased with its ef fects; better than any other article 1 ever met witli. 1 would be pleased to have you send me half a dozen bot tles by the bearer. Respectfully, W. M. Mason, M. D. This preparation has attained a wide celebrity from thu universal success which has attended its use. For coughs, olds, und in fact, any pulmonary complaints, this medicine, front its peculiar properties us a dissolvent and its soothing power to all irritations of the throat will probably be preferred to any other offered to the public. As an appetizer, or dyspeptic remedy, it will also he found excellent, Its natural and genial warmth keeping the digestive powers in proper tone.
