Itii.—Economy of Thought.—As when known, it wifi remove all dread and anxiety at present listing, respecting febrile affections; particularly while a dear friend Is sick. Sth.-Economy of Health.—As the system Is not p lucud, and consequently racked; nor is the fever subject to he followed by chronic disease. 8 th.—Economy of Life.—As the cure is effected be fori and without reducing the patient, consequently removing, ill a corresponding degree, all danger of a fatal termination. Other reasons might be added, but these are deemed - efficient to satisfy all classes and persons in all condl ious of life. Th* above reasons ar ■ more particularly applicable to ‘lie immediate treatment on the first attack, but will apply with equal force to cases which have been subject i t o or have become reduced, corresponding of course ‘ i the nature of the case at the time it is first adminis tered. As this remedy gives so prompt, effectual and pertnu ” hi relief, in all ordinary eases, when used soon after ’ be atSir’t, persons can scarcely roaltz, that they had (icon really much sick, and very naturally conclude tin y vet, not attacked with fever, and if so, “it was trifling —a little cold, which gave alarm—it could have been i “hlng of consequence—it would have passed off with ■: .nything—that medicine had nocfloct.” The general iJliPi 1 -V’ h oil the subject of lever Is siu h, (liat thoughts not unlike the above follow the euro of a common ease naturally as men think at all: and it is not until • individual lias witnessed many cases that lie can fuliy feat. i/e the truth; and even then he may conclude them ul! very ti ijfiug c,i*es, which would have readily yielded to any simple Medicine, yet persons, though they have I— n thus successful in perhaps hundreds of cases, must expert that tie'ro wil eases occur wln re there is some sigunlc or local cause so great as to require particular utteiitlou. or though success ul In rislucing the fever, It will again vl-o as tlieinfftunico of the “Flub!” passes otf, us the exciting cause may still exist. It is to guard against disappointment in suen cases that I have given and frequently refer to wliat i have callod a “synopsis.” Ilomarltsojx Ftvers In General* On this subject I wish to bo fully uudcrJtbod. By the ■ ovui “levers,” 1 comprelieud all febrile affections to which the human frame is subject, including small pox and other eruptive lasers; hut as they arise liy a great variety of causes, and m quits* dissimilar constitutions and habits, they of course differ considerably In their bel,.placet and exhibit a variety of form* or types; yvt all are distinguished by the same general character i;>Ugs—that o; undue excitement iu the circulatory and nervous systems—inducing more or less unnatural fre quency in the pulse, sense of beat, dryness of the skin, debility, Ac. To libw Unit I am not wholly alone in the opinion I >.nice, 1 quote from the relebrufcd l’rof. X. Mat on, ; King/: College, Loudon, whose work on the ■* Triuci pi is and Practice of Physio” is a text book in many of mr medical colleges, anil consequently sUuuhirJautlairity. >n p ige Kill, he. says:—"We. hear continually, lioth in and out of (lie profession, different species ~f fever spa k. li of. lly tile public, ‘typhus Fever, Brain Fever, Bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever, •. And systematic writers are lu the full as particular: Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, UastroKnteric, and r forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, 1 am persuaded that the effect upon the ,iiiud of all this sub-division, is bad and hurtful. It encourageri a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre ►eritai for a disease according to its name. There is no tin ■ of genuine distinction between continued fevers, thill can be relied on. They run insensibly into each oilier, even the most dissimilar of them, and are often tra ‘oable to tile same cause.” The übive is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance and 1 wliuld imprest on your minds the folly of liuutiug .p or troubling yoinself about a “ name;” il you have l v r, treat it at ogee as hereafter directed,’ and you iv.V ae mjcJl :nsteiul rtf any distinctcharacter being devel oped, so as to lie properly named by the most scientific, t'libf assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula tions or visions of mind, hut on experience at the bed side of the sick, iu hundreds, aye, thousands of cases (by myself and Other.) under a great variety of cir cumstances, seasons mid climates. Bear this in mind, and treat at once without regard to name, and rest assured you wilt soon bo freed from all dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers. Hut ils cases may have bo eoine developed before the “ Fluid” is given, either by udglect, or under sumo other treatment, I will describe ; briefly as possible the proper course to be pursued in .ill of the most prominent fevers, though the “ ltules” and ••,synopsis” will be amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon the sick. Rules important to be observed in all eases in using the Negative Electric Fluid. Ist. It should he given in three or four times its own quantity of water, and may he sweetened or not at pleasure. 2.1. Patients must bo free from all currents of air, (though there should always bo free veutilatiou ill the lick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in fluence. Bd. It must be continued whenever the fever subsides, or is evidently passing off'; to be resumed when it begins to rise again, should such he the case under any e ire u in stances. 4th. When the fever begins to subside, patients must be left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should not bo questioned ns 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 ■ lioiilit any conversation be allowed in their hearing, in which they may fed more or loss interested, lint lie left quiet to all intents and purposed. 6th. Fluids should be allowed, while giving it as plentifully, audits long as the patient desires and no longer; they may consist of cold water, mucilaginous drinks, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, either cold or warm as parties may prefer or patients desire. litli. Should patients experience any oppression or faintness w hile in tile lying posture, so as to occasion a vest le.ssnc.ss after tho fever has passed off, or enough to occasion them 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 Preset may l>e 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 1 and under 2 years, “ 6to 15 “ “ *• 2 “ 6 “ 12t030 “ “ “ 6 “ 111 “ “0 to f>o “ “ “ 8 “ 15 half to a teaspoonful. All persons over fifteen considered as adults, for whom ati iispoonful is a common dose. Old ihtsous do not quire hs much as young, or those in the prime of life; ii- females, as a general rule, as much as males. There is no particular care necessary in giving it to lot.lren—those often years of ago frequently having taken full doses; but for a little guide. 1 have given the ,if . o table, with the remark that, as u general rule, children require more than adults in proportion. By observing tlui above directions, the medicine will he found agreeable iu ail of its effects, tho expectations • j the most sanguine realized, and mauy perfectly astonished. My object iu boing thus particular is, that tlio full benefit of the medicine may be obtained, and nut on account of any actual necessitg of such strict ob servances. Bilious or Remittent Fever. tlive a tcasponful of “Fluid - ’ (see rule Ist) once in two hours, till the lever is evidently passing off; this constitutes tho whole treatment in all simple cases of fever, with such observances as arc set forth in the Rules.” But should there lie prominent local symp toms, or known local existing causes, they tdiould bo attended to at once, and while giving the “ Fluid.” Beo Synopsis. If in any case the bowels are constipated or confined, give a cathartic (sec auxiliaries) with the first portion; they must hs opened or the lever may rise again. Where the fever is very high, pulse running 110 or upwards, and the patient is not particularly susceptible io the influence of medicine —not easily operated on by medicine generally—a double dose, or two toaspoousful may be given at first with advantage, and even repeated in two hours—if it—the pulse—has not been s<{ftene<t. thus showing the medicine has taken effect. Bathing the surface with water at an agreeable temperature, the saline wash, vinegar or spirit* and w it, r, iu those difficult cases, will afford relief autl aid tlie medicine much iu taking effect. Congeattve Fever. Give two toaspoousful and repeat every two hours till tho pulse becomes more full and soft, then only a tcu sp, ,out'ui, to tie discontinued as the fever subsides. “As tbo bowels are generally confined, and It is frequently very difficult to get medicine to operate in thlv disease, l, time should bo lost to got them open, give some active cathartic with tlu* “ Fluid” and repeat as may be neces sary till it operates; enema* (injections) may also lie us, and to advantage; nlso, mustard to the extremities, or friction (rubbing) with the hands or flannel; also, cold applications to the bead. Quinine may be added to tlie ‘• Fluid” if thought advisable. See Synopsis. Nervous Fever, Typhus, Ship and Putrid nr Sjtotted Fever. As those fevers are all of one character, differing mainly in degree, living all of a low grade, tlie pulse small and wiry, with a general great depression, there is ho practical use 111 separating them—at least so far as my treatment is concerned, lu these low fevers, when fully developed, a little patience will hq required: still comparatively little, as they frequently rim weeks under tlie common treatment, while with this but a few days will In, necessary at longest to establish a permanent convalescence. The treatment should bo coiumcuced—which luav immediately follow any other without detriment with a toaspoonfiil of •* Fluid” every two hours, till tlie pulse tmeomes fuller or larger in volume, then to be continued knee In ala or eight hours till the fever cutirely subsides. Iu laid cases, from three to iivo grains each of quinine and capsicum (Cayenne pepper) or some tonic and stimu lant (See auxiliaries) should be added to each done. Tne bowels should bo kept gently open, and small portions of some hepatic should ho given occasionally, even though the bowels should ho \ cry loose. The patient should be sustained by nourishing and mucilagcnous drinks—such as ara in common use iu such cases.— Where tlie skin is very dry. .sponging the surface its di rected in bilious fever, will bo found advantageous. Tonics should be used during convalescence, iu ail owes which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, bung or Winter Fever. Given teaspoonful of the “Fluid” efery two hours, with a wine-glassful of a strdng decoction of bone*<t; or half the quantity may bo given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say once in six or eight hours. Tho bone.sot tea should bo given warm till tne violent symptoms are allayed, or tbo patient is relieved; then Cold; fomentation.;, mustard planter, or sou:'-thing of the kind, to be applied over tho seat of pain; keep the bowels gently open. Variola, Varioloid, Rubeola arul Scarla tina; or Small Pox, Varioioid, Measles, and Scarlet Fever. As all of these diseases ure attended with fever, which in fact is the most prominent symptom, the treatment differs hue little from that of common fevers. Jtomember never w ait to learn the whether it is one or tho other, or neither, as they all commence with Jtvcr, but treat'it at once; govern the fever and -there will bo no trouble; there will b v but little eruption even in small pox. Tills, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubtless will be regarded with ridicule by many. 1 nevertheless I>oldly make tlie assertion, that small pox, if treated as i direct, wM be cut slv/rl; attended with but little erup tion; little or no pitting, and that there is no necessity of its running its ordinary course. Un this I will stake not only my reputation, but a.l that I hold most dear; besides, un this subject, 1 have good authority; that of Prof. Watson, previously quoted. He say-, page 874: “You may abate tho force of tlie eruptive lever, and keep down, it is believed, the number oj the pmstulei by sphue purges, Ac.” Here i* die admission that it may be dune, i nave not only proven it may be, but bus been done m numerous esses that occurred on board ship. See the account appended. Give a teaspoonful or more, according to tiie urgency of tire case, witli a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat the Fluid once in two hours it necessary, until the feversuh sides—though one or two doses is genera ly sufficient; but it should be given and repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under control. When the throat is affected, any of tlie ordinary gargles may be used, and tlie surface bathed, as thought advisable. J none case, on tlie ship Duchess and urlearm, the tongue and faurus were so much swollen that the patient could not swallow or speak, and he wits cured by dropping the Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till lie could swallow, when it was given in teaspoonful doses every hour, till all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of tlie throat was reduced so its to enable hint to take nour ishment in about twelve horns by the Fluid alone.— Used to wot the throat frequently, it is doubtless the best yargle in all such cases. Puerperal or Childbed Fever. This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming malady to which tile 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 teaspoonful. almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need bo entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it iu a short time. It should be re pented as long as the fever continues, as in other cases. The bowels of course should be attended to. In connection with this subject, 1 cannot refrain from making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by tiie ladies, will save them much pain and suffering. It is to inform them of tiie happy effect of tiio Fiuid in many of their trial.-, iu child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives tins labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must be tried to be appreciated.— Painful menstruation will bo relieved at oueo by a com mon dose and retiring. Bestlessness, nervous irritability, ora cold taken at a delicate time, is easily relieved by its use; in short, it is one of tlie must convenient and effectual remedies for many of the ills of females, il not tho most so of any medicine known, its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing ail excitability and iritability of the nervous as well as the circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and quiet tlie system so that one can sleep naturally and healthy ; hence its uso iu so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense the treat ment as much as possible, 1 give under tills head general directions for all cases. As the Negative Electric Fluid w ill change the condition called lever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to tlie name it may be or ought to he called, it should be given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot be ex pected to control all organic or local causes, which, when such exist, must be removed in order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any case, they should I*’ appropriate means, and these sohuid 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 be lost. As the', Fluid” alone will sub due tlie fever, I c all all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) with tiie first dose, or soon after, and should it tail to operate in due time, repeat tlie dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something known to be 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 bitter herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet in cold water, to tho part; if violent paiu iu the head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe tlie feet in hot water; if tlie fever is very high, skin dry'ami hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe tlie 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 iu taking effect, after which there will be no trou ble ; if the patient has been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics and stimulant*, particularly in low fevers, in absence of fever or when indicated; nlso, during convalescence, when tlie patient lias become re duced; if there is nausea and vomiting, that must be allayed before any medicine w ill remain on tho stomach to do any good; for this purpose I generally give some gentle emetic to cleanse the stomach; warm water, if givuu plentifully, will answer every purpose; when the stomach lias settled, give the •• Fluid” and a cathartic if necessary; in short, treat all tlie prominent symptoms as y ou 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 tiie 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* I will name a tew of the different art ides of medi cine 1 have referred to, viz:— (at it art ica.—Articles that purge or operate on the bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, any of tiie roots or barks, and many pills, autibiliuus, Ac.; anything known to bo good for such purposes. Hepatic*.—Anything known to act on the iiver particularly, portal circulation and secretions generally. Any of tho article* depended on by the “Afferent schools for this purpose, will answer when used in connection with the “Fluid” or while tlie system is under its in fluence. And one may choose calomel—another, blue mass—the third, podophyllin—the fourth, mandrake root, and 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 or thoroughwort is one of the best used in fevers. Astringents.—Such as check the action of the bowels. Laudanum and other preparations of opium are used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents, which have the effect. Stimulants.—Articles that raise or excite tlie system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of the l*est; 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” than known iu the materia in-dica, I shall not tax the reader with a long list of proofs, depending mainly on the results of n trial, and will only refer to one instance of success, that on the Packetslilii Duclicss D’Orlean*. which cannot be classed among ordinary certificate*: We, the undersigned, certify to the following, viz— Wo took passage on the pneketship Duchess d’Orloan* Capt Hutton, then lying iu the port of Havre, France’ ami bound for New York.

RECOMMENDATIONS. New Ouleaxs. April 9, 1855. Dear cir—The public generally are fully aware of the thousands of remedies for Diseased Lungs, under the titles of Sarsaparilla*, Pills, Plasters, Liniments, Ac., that are daily brought to their notice through the newspapers by way of advertisements. My object iu writing this note for publication, is to induce the public, or at least those who are afflicted, to use one that contains articles of Real t’sc in Pulmonary Diseases. Tam conscious that in so doing, I am acting most unprofessionally, and deroga torily to the interests of Medical Science and the regular Practitioners of Medicine. I refer to Woodman’s Cherry Expeotomnt, which is a scientific remedy that l have used with more success tliau any of the usual prescrip tions used by Physicians. J. M. SLulaxd, M. D. Gallatin-, Miss., May J, 1565. O. 0. Woodman—Dear Sir; 1 hfive given your Cherry- Expectorant a fair trial and am well pleased with its ef fects; better than any other article 1 ever met with. I would he pleased to have you scud 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 lias attended its use. For coughs, colds, and in Let. any pulmonary complaints, this medicine, from its peculiar properties as a dissolvent and Its soothing power to all irritations of the throat, will probably be preferred to any other offered to the public. A* an appetizer, or dy -peptic remedy, it will also be found excellent, its natural and genial warmth keeping the digestive powers In proper tone. Remember that this is the only Cough Medicine that has stood the test of the medical fraternity. It is sanc tioned by. approved of. and recommended by the leuding Physicians of New York city.
