amative ELECTRIC FLUID, I Prepared by N. W. heal, M. D. i.i aeons why it Shofflil be used instead of any other treat ment in all Febrile affections: i i.-"Econiny of Time.—As only ‘me-sivenlh >f the ordinary time is required toetfoct a cure. dd.— Economy of Money.—As it costs but one • lolhir. 3rd.—Kfiunmy of Feeliiig.~AH it eaves the utllerlug of a lout? sickness and the consequent treat ment; Die annoyance of taking nauseating doses of medicine, their disagreeable operation, and the pain of long confinement; hut little of the fluid being necessary, and that pleasant in its effects. 4th. —Economy of Thought.— As when known, it will remove all dread and anxiety at present misting, 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 nibjoct to lio followed by chronic disease. Oth.—Economy of Life.—As the cure is effected ‘adore and without reducing the patient, consequently removing, in a corresponding degrwo, all danger of a fetal termination. Other reasons might be added, but these ur* deemed ,uUicivet to satisfy all classes and persona in all condi tions of life. ‘i.‘ii above raasous are mure particularly applicable to the immediate treatment on the first attack, but will apply with equal force to cases which have been subject i to or liavo become reduced, corresponding of course *.-> tire nature of tile euse at the lime it is first udminis fered. As this remedy giver no prompt, effectual ami perma nent relief. In all ordinary cases, when used soon after . rie attack, persons cun scarcely realise that they hud neen l-eully nun h sick, and very naturally conclude they ■ver i.nut attacked with fever, end if so, “it was trifling —a little robl, which gave alarm—it could have been nothing oi esusequenco—it would have passed off with out any tiling—that medicine had no effect.” Tito general impression on ttio subject of fever is such, that thoughts no. unlike the above follow the cure of a common case naturally as men thin!; at all; and if is not until .be individual has witnessed many rases that he can fully realise the truth; and even than ho may conclude them all very trifling cases, which would have readily yielded hi any silupio modicum, yet persons, though they have lioiii thus sucooislitl in perhu|,s hundreds of raises, must •■xpc.it (hat there will cases occur white there is some organic or local cause so great as to require particular 0 tent ion. or though success.ul in reducing the fever, it will again rise ns the influence of tho •• Fluid” passes off, os the exciting cause may still exist. It is to guard tgainst disappointment in such cases that I have given and treqiirilly refer to wliatl liavo called a “synopsis.” Keiaarhsnu Keven In General* till tills subject l wish to he fully understood. By the ir.m “ Icvets,” I comprehend all febrile affections to vln. ii the human frame is subject, including small pox yard other eruptive fevers; but as they arise by a great Variety of causes, and in quite dissimilar constitutions ami habits; th"y of eourss differ considerably in their dc “l.ipujont utid exhibit a variety of forms or types; yet i.II art) distinguished by the mine general character i tii i—that oi undue excitement In the circulatory and nervous systems —inducing Wore or less unnatural fre quency in the pulse, sense of beat, dryness of the skin, debility; Ac. To show that T am not wholly ulono in the opinion I affiance, 1 quote from the celebrnfeil Prof. T. Watson, of King’s College, London, whose work on tlio •• I’rinci i I, ■ and Practice of Physic” is a text book in many of o; :■ medical colleges, and consequently standard authority. on pig?) 88 i, lie says :—’“We tiear continually, both in i.i.d out of the profession, different species of fever s]ki ... u of, lly tile public, Typhus Fever, Bruin Fever, Poising Fever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever, A ml-systematic writers are to the full as particular: ’ I deoils Fever, Ataxic. Adynamic, biasti o-liiiterle, and forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, I am persuaded that the effect upon the mind of all this sub-division, is bad ami hurtful. It eoi images a disposition, already ton prevalent, to pre , ribe for a disease according to its name, There is no iii of g< nnirie distinction between continued fevers, l iuil can bo relied cm. They run insensibly into each . i.'i\ even tho most dissimilar of them, and are often , - ,■i cable to the same cause.” The above Is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance and 1 would imprest on your minds tho lolly of hunting up m‘troubling yourself about a “name; ’ if you have fever, treat it at once us hereafter directed, anil yon mill he i oi’ll. instead of any dlstluetcharucter being devel oped, so us to he properly named by tho most scientific. This assertion is do hypothesis bused on closet specula .oiis or visions of mind, but on experience at the bed side of tho sick, in hundreds, uye, thousands of cases (by myself uud others) under u great variety of cir cjiustiuicua, seasous and climates. Bear this in mind, uud treat at once without regard to name, aud rest assured you will soon bo freed from all dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers. But as oases may have be come developed before the ‘• Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under some other treatment, 1 will describe vs briefly as possible the proper course to be pursued iu all of the most prominent fevers, though the “ Rules” and “ Synopsis” will bo amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon the sick. /iiAi important to be observed in all cases in mine; the negative Electric Fluid. Ist. Jt should be given In tliroo or four times Us own quantity of water, and may be sweetened or not at pleasure. id. Patients must be free from all currents of air, (though there should always be free ventilation in the nek room,) nor attempt to go about while under Us in fluenco. id. it must be continued whenever the fever subsides, or is evideutly passing off'; to be resumed when it begins to rise again, should such bo the case under any ciivuuiatauecH. 4th. When the fever begins to subside, patients must be left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should not ho questioned as to their wants or feelings, nor attempt to converse, read or take any oxerciso whatever, till their own natural feelings, independent of all extra neous influences, induce them to rlso or speak; nor -Itimld any conversation bo allowed In their hearing, in vv hick they may feel more or less interested, but be left quiet to all intents and purposes. .>tk. Fluids should be allowed, while giving it as plentifully, and as long ns (lie patient desires and no longer; they may consist of cold water, mucilaginous iriuks, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, either cold or warm, as parties may prefer or patients desire. (’.lit. Should patients experience any oppression or i.iiiittiess while in the lying posture, so as to occasion a restlessness alter tho fever has passed oil', or enough to occasion them to apeak of it, they should have a little wine, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade with a little spirit, ginger, or some other stimulant; or tho face ami cut maybe bathed in cold water; either of which Hill give immediate relief. TABLE OF DOSES.

All persons over fifteen considered as adults, for whom a teaspoonful is a common dose. Old persons do not cquire as much ns young, or those iu (lie prime of life; i- r females, as a general rule, as much as males. there is lie particular care necessary in giving it to hildren —those of ten years of age frequently having taken full doses; tint for a little guide, X have given the above table, with the remurk that, as a gcm#al rule, , hilvU'eu require more than adults iu proportion. lly observing the above directions, the medicine will be found agreeable in all of its effects, tho expectations of the most sanguine realized, and many perfectly astonished. My object ill being thus particular is, that ihe full benefit of (lie medicine may be obtained, aud not on account of any actual necessity of such strict ob- Horvauees. Ulltous ur Itculttcnt Fever. Give a tuasponful of “ Fluid” (see rule Ist) once in two hours, till tlio fever is evideutly (Hissing off; this constitutes tlio whole treatment in all simple cases of lever, with such observances a are set forth ill tlie ■'Rules.'’ But should there lie prominent local symp loms, or known local existing causes, they should be attended to at once, and while giving the “ Fluid.” Seo Sytuqisis. ts m any euse the bowels are particularly constipated or confined, give a cathartic (See auxiliaries) with tlie first isirtion; they must be opened iq tlie fever may rise again. Whore the fever is very high, pulse running 110 or upwards, and tlie patient is not particularly susceptible to tlie influence of medicine —not easily operated ou by medicine generally—a double dose, or two teaspoonsful may bo given at first with advantage, and even repeated n two hours—ls It—the pulse—lias not been sojlenmt, thus showing tlie medicine has taken effect. Bathing the surface witii water at an agreeable temperature, the saline wash, vinegar or spirits and v-ater, in these difficult cases, will afford relief and aid tlie medicine much iu takiug effect. Cong-estiva Fever. ‘live two teaspoonsful and repeat every two hours till ibe pulse becomes more full and soft, thou only a tea t-poonftll, to bo discontinued us the fever subside!, As the bowels arti generally confined, and it is frequently very'difficult to get medicine to operate in this disease, no ilrne should be lost to get them o]s>n. give some active ,tlmrtic with the “ Fluid” amt repeat as may tie neces •ury till it operates; enemas (injections) may also bo used to advantage; also, mustard to the extremities, or friction (rubbing) with tlie hands or flannel; also, cold applications to tho head. Quiuine may be added to the ” Fluid” if thought advisable. See Symqisis. Nervous Fever, Typhus, Ship and Putrid or Spotted Fever. Vs these fevers are all of one character, differing nxviiily iu degree, being all of a low grade, tlie pulse small and wiry, with a general great depression, there is no practical use in separating them—at least so far as ay treatment Is concerned. Iu those low fevers, w hen fully developed, a little patience will be required; still comparatively little, as they frequently run weeks under tie-common treatment, while with this but a few days wilt be necessary at longest to establish a permanent convalescence. The treatment Arnold be commenced—which may immediately follow cjiv other without detriment witii , a leaspuonl'ul of “ Fluid” every two hours, till the pulse becomes fuller or larger in volume, then to be coctiuued hue# in tia or tight hours till the fever entirely subsides. In bad case*, from three to five grains u-vh of quinine and capsicum (Cayenne pepper) or Some lonic anil stimu lant (iee auxiliaries) should be added to each dose. Tho bovvuls should be kepi gently open, and small portions of some /ispafie should be given uccasioiSally, even though the bowels sliuuhl be Very loose, The patient should he sustained by nourishing and miioilageuous drinks—such as tiro in common use iu such casus.— Where the skin is very dry, sponging the surface as di rected ih bilious fever, will be lu.uud advantageous. Tonics should be used during convalescence, in all Canes which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneuinonlu, Lung or Winter Fever. Give a teaspoonful of tho “Fluid” every two liourf, with a wine-glassful of a strong decoction of bone-set; or half the quantity may be given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say once in six or eight hours. The boneset tea should be given warm till the violent symptoms arc allayed, or the patient is relieved; then cold; fomentations, mustard pluster, or something of 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 dis’ .iseß are attended w ith fever, which in tact is the most prominent symptom, the treatment differs bue little from that of common fevers. Remember never wait to learn the “name,” whether it is one or tlio other, or neither, its they all commence with fever, hut treat it at once; govern the fever and there will he no trouble; there will be but little eruption even iu small pox. This, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubtless will lie regarded with ridieule by many. 1 nevertheless boldly make the assertion, that small (iojc, if treated as 1 direct. wiU lee, cut short; attended with but little erup tion; little ur no pitting, uud that there is no necessity of its running its ordinary course. On this I will stake not only my reputation, but a I that 1 hold moat dear; besides, on this subject, 1 have good authority; that of Prof. Watson, previously quoted, lie says, page 874: “ You may abate the force of the eruptive fever, and keep down, it is believed; the number oj the pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Here is the admission tout it may be done. I nave not only proven it muy be, but has been done in numerous cases that occurred on board ship. See the account appended. Giro u teaspoon fill or more, according to the urgency of tlio case, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat tho Fluid once in two hours if necessary, until the feversub sides—though one or two doses is genera ly sufficient; but it should lie given ami repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under control. When the throat is affected, any of the ordinary gargles may bo used, and the surface bathed, as thought advisable. In one case, on the amp Duchess d’Orleans, the tongue and Caucus were so much swollen that the patient could not sw allow or speak, and ho was cured by dropping tlio Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till be could swallow, when it was given iu” teaspoonful doses every hour, till all alarming symptoms disappeared. Tho swelling of tlio throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment in about twelve hours by the Fluid alone. — Used to wet tho throat frequently, it is doubtless the best yurgle, in all such cases. Puerperal or Childbed Fever. This heretofore paiulol, dangerous aud alurming malady to which tho mother is liable, will yield to the Negative Electric Fluid witii 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 be entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should be re peated ns long as tlio fever continues, as in oilier cases. Tlie bowels of course should be atteuded 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 uniLsuilering. 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 ot much of its yaffis and difficulties; it nrhst be tried to be appreciated.— Painful menstruation will be relieved at once by a com mon dose and retiring. Restlessness, nervous irritability, ora cold taken at a delicate time, is easily relieved by its use; In short, it is one of the most convenient and elfectuai remedies for many of the ills of females, if not tlio most so of any medicine known. Its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability and iritability of the nervous as well as tlio circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and quiet the system so that one can sleep naturally aud healthy; lienee its use iu so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, ami condense the treat ment as much as possible, 1 give under this head generul directions for all cases. As the Negative Electric Fluid will change tho condition called fever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to tho name it may bo or ought to lie called, it should be given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot bo ex pected to control all organic or local causes, which, when such exist, must he removed in order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any case, they should bo appropriate menus, and these aohuld be given while giving the “ Fluid,” and iu 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 tho •, Fluid” alone will sub due the fever, 1 call all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) with tlie first dose, or soon after, and should it fail to operate in due time, repeat tho dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something known to be good for that complaint, though if caused by irritability, the “ Fluid” will Siam relievo 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 iu cold water, to the part; if violent pain in the head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, aud bathe the feet in hot water; if tho fever is very high, skin dr y anil hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe the 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 in taking effect, after which there will he no trou ble ; if the patient has been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics and stimulants, particularly in low fevors, iu absence of fever or when indicated; also, duriug convalescence, wiien the patient has become re duced ; if there is nausea and vomiting, tliat must be allayed before auy medicine will remain on tlio stomach to do any good : tor this purpose 1 generally give some gentle emetic to cleanse tlio stomach ; warm water, if given plentifully, will answer every purpose; when the stomach has settled, give the “ Fluid” aud a cathartic if uocossary; in short, treat nil the prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giving tlie “Fluid” at the same time as directed, anil success will crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till yon have seen, and then you will bo astonished at the ease witii which you can control nil 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 tho Fluid, and to be fully understood by all, I will name a lew of the different articles of medi cine I have referred to, viz,:— Cat Hurt lea. —Articles tliat purge or operate on tho bowels, such os cantor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots or harks, and many pills, antibilious, Ac.; anything known to be good for such purposes. Hepatic*.—Anything known to art on the liver particularly, portal circulation and secretions generally. Any or the articles defended on by tho different schools tor this purpose, will answer when used in connection with tho “Fluid” or while the system is under its in fluence. And one may choose calomel—another, blue mass—tlie third, podophyllin—tlio fourth, mandrake root, and so on; each may take his choice aud be suc cessful. Tonics. —Articles that give tone or strength, such as quinine, various harks, roots and bitter herbs. Uone sot or tlioroughwort is one of the best used in fevers. Astringents.— Pucli us check the action of tho bowels. Laudanum and other preparations of opium are used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents, which liavo the effect. Stimulants.—Articles that raise or excite the system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of the host; ginger, spirits, lmrtsliorn, Ac., ttie essences are all more or less stimulating. These are tlio only classes necessa ry in treating fevers, though many others are generally used, but the Negative Khwtrie Fluid is a bet'er “ dia phoretic,” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and “ sedative” than known in the materia medial. I shall not tax the reader with u long list of proofs, depending mainly on the results of u trial, and will only refer to one instance of success, that on the Packetslilp Duchess D’Orlcans. which caunot be elussod among ordinary certificates: We, the undersigued, certify to tlie following, viz— Wo took passage on tlie packetsliip Duchess d’Oileans, Capt Hutton, then lying in tlie port of Havre, Franco, and bound for New York. Bhe sailed on the 9th of Au gust, 1861, with over a hundred souls on hoard, mostly emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, the small pox broke out among the emigrants, They were all treated by the physician in charge,Dr. N. W. Seat, with anew remedy of his own, which lie calls Negative Elec tric Fluid, with which lie 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 thirty-nine days, 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 wo 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 euse, promptness and certainty, or so little trouble to tho nurse.
