negative electric fluid, Pi't'imreci by N, W. Seat, M. U. Reason* why it should bo used instead of any other treat ment in all i*V-brile affection*: i i.-- Kcoaoiny of Time. —As .inly one-seventh •f tlm ordinary tirno is required to effect a cure. -4U.— Economy of Money.— As it costs but one dollar. iii-il.— Economy of Feeling.— As it saves tlio suffering of a long sickness and tlie consequent treat ment; tlie annoyance of taking nauseating doses of medicine, their disagreeable operation, and the pain of lung confinement; but 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 -Hating, 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 be followed by chronic disease. Oth.— Economy of Life. -As the cure Is effected before and without reducing the patient, consequently removing, in a corresponding degree, all danger of a fatal termination. Other reasons might he added, hut these are deemed sufficient to satisfy all classes ami persons in all condi tions of life. The alnvo reasous are more particularly applicable to the immediate treatment on the first attack, but will apply with equal force to cases which have been snbject . •! to or have become reduced, corresponding of course V) the naturp of tlio case at the time it is first adminis tered. As ibis remedy gives so prompt, effectual anil permit neqt relief, in all ordinary cases, when used sisin after Uie attack, persons cun scarcely realize that they had been really much siek, and very naturally conclude they wur i not attacked with fever, and if so, “It was trifling -a little cold, which gave alarm —it could have been noth tug of consequence—it would have passed off with out anything—that medicine hid nocffoct.” The general impression on the subject of fever is such, that thoughts not unlike the above follow the cure of a common case a- naturally as men think at all; and it iH not until *. je individual lias witnessed many cases that lie can fully .oali/.e the truth; and even then he may conclude them ail very trilling cases, which would have readily yielded to any simple medicine, yet persons, though they have been 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 attention, or though successful in reducing tlio fever, it will again rise as the influence of the “Fluid” pauses off, as the exciting cause limy still exist. It is to guard against disappointment in such canes that I have given and frequently refer to what 1 have called a “synopsis.” He marks on Fevers io General* On this subject I wish to he fully understood. Ily the term “fevers,” I comprehend all febrile affections to which the human frume is subject, including small pox and other eruptive fevers; but as they arise by a great vaiiety of causes, mid in quite dissimilar constitutions and habits, tiny of course differ considerably in their development and exhibit a variety of forms or typos; yet ull are distinguished by the same general eburaoter (sties—that ol undue excitement in 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 show that 1 am not wholly alone iu the opinion l advance, 1 quote front tho celebrafod I’rof. T. Watson, ol King’s College, lam doll, whose work on the “ 1 ’ll uci pies amt Practice of Physic” is a text book in many of our modi cal is dirges, and consequently standardautkorit y. fin pigo 834, lie any*; —“We hear coutinualh, both iu and out of the profession, dilfereut species of fever spo ken of. liy tint public, Typhus Fever, ih'uin Fever, bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, how Fever, Nervous Fever, Ac. And systematic writers are to the full as particular: Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, (iostro-Kuturic, mid so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms. I am persuaded tlutt the client upon the mind of all this sub-division, is bail and hurtful. I t uucoitrages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre scribe for a disease according to its name. There is no line of genuine distinction between continued fevers, Unit can bo relied on. They run insensibly into each other, even tlie most dissimilar of them, and uro often traceable to the same cause.” The above is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance and 1 would impress on your minds the lolly of limiting up or troubling yourself about a ‘• name;’ if you have fever, treat it at once ns hereafter directed, and you will be well instead of any distinctcharactcr being devel oped, so as to be properly named by the most scientific. ’I bis assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula tions or visions of mind, but on experience at tlie bed side of tho sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands of eases (by myself and others) under a great variety of cir cumstances, seasons and climates. Bear tins in mind, and treat Ht once without regard to name, and rest assured you will soon bo freed from all dread of linger ing uud dangerous fevers. But as cases may have be come developed before the “ Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under some other treatment, I will describe as briefly as possible the proper course to bo pursued iu all of the most prominent fevers, though the” Rules” and •• Synopsis” will be amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon tho sick. links important to be observed in till cases in using the Negative Electric Fluid. Ist. Jt should be given in three or four times its own quantity of water, anil may be sweetened or not at pleasure, Jd. Patients must liti free from all currents ol air, (though there should always be free ventilation iu the sick rw>w,) nor attempt to go about while under its in fluence. ltd. It must bo continued whenever the fever subsides, Or is evidently passing off; to ho resumed when it begins to rise again, should such he the ease under any circumstances. 4lh. When the fever begins to subside, patients must bo left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should not be questioned as to their wants or fcoliugs, nor attempt tocouverso, read or take any exercise whatever, •till their man natural feelings, independent of all extra neous influences, induce them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation be allowed In their hearing, in ujiieli they may feel more or less interested, but be left qniei to all intents and purposes. ■itli. Fluids should bo allowed, while giving it us plentifully, aud as 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. (Hit. Should patients experience any oppression or faintness while in the lying posture, so as to occasion a restlessness after the lever 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 breast may be bathed in cold water; either of which will give immediate relief.

I’here Is no particular care necessary iu giving it to children—those of ton years of age frequently having taken full d>wes; but for a little guide, 1 have given the above table, with the remark that, us a general rule, children require more than adults in proportion. By observing the above directions, the medicine will be found agreeable in all of its effects, the expectations of the most sanguine realized, and many perfectly astonished. Sly object in 1 icing thus particular is, that the full benefit of the medicine limy be obtained, and not on account of any aetml necessity of each strict ob servances. unions or Heinlttent Fever. Give a teaspotifnl of “ Fluid” (see rule Ist) once In two hours, till the fever is evidently passing off; this constitutes the whole treatment in nil simple eases of fever, with such observance* us are set forth in the “ Rules.” lint should there be prominent local symp toms. or known local existing causes, they should be attended to at once, and while giving the “ Fluid.” See Synopsis. If in any ease tho bowels are particularly constipated or confined, giro a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the first portion ; they must be opened or the fever may rise again. Where the fever is very high, pulse running 110 or upwards, and tho patient is not particularly susceptible to the iuflueuee of medicine —not easily operated on by medicine generally—a double dose, or two toas|>ooiisful may bo given at first with advantage, and even repeated in two liouro—lf it—the pulse—has not been softened, I bus showing the medicine has taken effect. Bathing the surface with water at an agreeable temperature, the saline wash, vinegar or spirits and water, In these difficult eases, will afford relief aud aid the medicine much in taking effect. I'mtgrsttve Fever. (live two tenspeonsful and repeat every two hours till tlio pulse becomes more full and soft, then only u ton* spoonful, to be discontinued as the fever subside*. A* the bowels are generally confined, and it is frequently very difficult to get medicine to operate in tills disease, Up time should be lost to get them open, give Mime active cathartic with the “ Fluid” and repeat as may he neces sary till it operates; enemas (injections) may also he used to advantage; also, mustard to tho extremities, or tril lion (rubbing) with the hands or fiatmul; also, cold applications to the head. Quinine may be milled to the “ Fluid” if thought advisable. Fee Synopsis, Nervous Fever, Typhus, Ship nml Putrid or Spotted Fever. \s these fevers are all of ono character, differing muiuly in degree. Vicing all of a low grade, the pulse small and wiry, with a general great depression, there is no practical use In separating them—at least so far as m v treatment Is concerned. In these low fevers, when fully developed, a little patience will lie required; still comparatively little, a* they frequently run weeks tinder the common treatment, while with this but a few days will Ist necessary at longest to establish a permanent convalescence. Tlie treatment should be commenced—which may Immediately follow any other without detriment—with a teaspoonful of “ Fluid” every two hours, till the pnlso becomes fuller or larger in volume, then to be continued nc* in sii or eight hours till t**o fever eutlrely subsides. Iu had cases, from three to five grains each of quinine and capsicum (Cayenne popper) or souio tonic and stimu lant (see auxiliaries) should bo added to ouch dose. The bowels should bo kept gently open, and small portions of some hepatic should he given occasionally, even though the bowols should lie very louse. The patient should ho sustained by nourishing and mucilagenuus drinks—such as are iu common use in such coses.— 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, in all cases which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lang or Winter Fever. (five a teaspoonful of tho “Fluid” every two hours, with a wine-glasslul of u strong decoction of bnneset; or half the quantity may ho given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say once in six or eight hours. Tlio houeset tea should be given warm till tlio violent symptoms are allayed, or the patient is relieved; then cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, or something of the kind, to bo applied over tho seat of pain; keep Uio bowels gently open. , t( Variola, Varioloid, Rulieola and Scarla tina; or Mmail Pox, Varioloid, Measles, ami Scarlet Fever. As ull of these diseases are attended with fever, which in fact is the most prominent symptom, tlie treatment differs hue little from that of common fevers. Remember never wait to learn the “name,” whether it is one or tlio other, or neither, us they nil commence with fever, but treat it at once; govern tho fever and there will be no trouble; there will he but little, eruption oven iu smuil pox. This, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubtless will be regarded with ridicule by many. 1 nevertheless boldly make the assertion, that small pox, if treated as 1 direct, will be cut short; at tended with hut little erup tion; little or no pitting, and that there is no necessilg of its running its ordinary course. Un this X will stake not only my reputation, but all that I hold most dear ; besides, on this subject, 1 have good authority; t lint of I’rof. Watson, previously quoted, 110 says, page 574: “You may abate the force of tlie eruptive lever, and keep down, it is believed, the number of the pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Hero is the admission that it may be dene. I nave not only proven it maybe, but has been done in numerous cases that occurred on board ship. Feu the account appended. (live a teaspoonful or nioro, according to the urgency of the ease, witli a dose of solLs or castor oil; repeat tlio Fluid unco in two hours if necessary, until the lever sub sides—though one or two doses is generally sufficient; but it should bo given and repeated sufficiently to keep the fevor under control. When tlie throat is allotted, any of the ordinary gargles may ho used, and the surface hathetl, as thought advisable. In one ease, on the ship Duchess d’Orleuns, the tongue and fattens were so much swollen that tlie patient could not swallow or speak, aud lie was cured by dropping the Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till ho could swallow, when it was given iu teaspoouful doses every hour, till all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of the throat was reduced so us 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 gargle, iu ull such cases. Puerperal or Childbed Fever. This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming malady to which the ‘mother is liable, will yield to the Negative Electric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem to lie of little consequence. A single dose or two of a teaspoouful, almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need be entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it ill a short time. It should lie re peated as long us tho foyer continues, ns iu other cases. The bowels ol course should be attended to. In connection with this subject, 1 cannot refrain from making a few general remarks, whiHi, if regarded liy tlie ladles, will save them much pain and suffering, ft is to inform them of tho liappy effect of the Fluid in many of their trials, in child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives the labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must bo tried to bo appreciated.— Painful menstruation will be relieved at once by a com mon doso and retiring. Restlessness, nervous irritability, ora cold taken at a delicate time, is easily relieved by its use; in short, it is ono of the most convenient and oilectuai 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 tlie nervous as well as tho circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and quiet the system so that ono can sleep naturally and healthy ; hence its use in so mauy cases. Synopsis, To avoid constant repetition, and condcnsu the treat ment as much as possible, X give under this head general directions fur all cases. As the Negative Electric Fluid will change tho condition called fever, or subduo and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name it may be or ought to be called, it should l>e given wherevor or whenever it exists; yet it cannot be ex pected to control all organic or local causes, which, when such oxist, must be removed in order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any case, they should be appropriate means, and these sohuld be given while giving the “ Fluid,” and in connection with it, when occasion requires, as they will then more readily act, producing moro general effect, besides no unnecessary tinio will then be lost. As the ‘,Fluid” alone will sub due the fever, l call all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels are costive, givo a cathartic (see auxili aries) with the lirst 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, the “ Fluid” will soon relieve that condition; if severe local pain or inflammation, apply some stimulating liniment, a mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of bi tter 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 hatlie tho feet in hot water; if the fever is very high, skin dry and hot, with great suffering, spongo or bathe the whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature; “the saliao wash,” vinegar aud water or spirits aud water, either will afford great relief and aid the medi cine iu taking effect, after which there will bo no trou ble ; if tho paticut has boon reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics and stimulants, particularly in low fevers, in absence of fever or when 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; lor this purpose 1 generally give some gentle emetic to cleanse the stomach; warm water, if given plentifully, will answer every purpose; when the stomach Ims settled, give tho “ Fluid” and a cathartic if necessary; in short, treat all the prominent symptoms ns 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 tho ease with which you can control all febrile excitement. Auxiliaries. Parties may fool at a loss to know what is meant by cathartics, Ac., as physicians arc usually particular uhout what is used. 1 have found no such necessity when using tlie Fluid, ami to be fully understood by all, I will name a tew of the different.articles of medi cine 1 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, and many pills, aatibilious, Ac.; anything known to be good forauoli purposes. Hepatic*.—Anything known to act on tho liver particularly, portul circulation and secretions generally. Any of the articles depended on by the different schools for this purpose, will answer when used iu connection with the “ Fluid” or while the system is under its in fluence. And one may choose calomel—another, blue mass—the third, podopliyllilt—tho fourth, mandrake root, aud so on; each nitty take his choice and ho suc cessful. Tonic*.—Articles that givo tone or strength, such as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. Bono set or thoroughwort is olio of the best used in fevers. Astringents.—Such as check the action of tho bowels. Euudanuntand other preparation* of opium are used; also, mauy mixtures, not properly astringents, which have the effect. Stimulant*.—Articles that raise nr excite the system. Capsicum (Cuyeuue pepper) is one of tho best; ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., the essences are all more or less stimulating. These are the only classes necessa ry iu treating fevers, though mnny others are generally used, but the Negative Electric Fluid is a better “ dia phoretic,” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and ” sedative” than known in tho materia medico. 1 shall not tux tho reader with a long list of proofs, depending mainly on tho results of a trial, and will only refer to one Instance of success, Unit on the Racket ship Duclicss D’Orleans. which cannot be classed among ordinary certificate*: We, the undersigned, certify to the following, viz. We took passage on tho packetship Duchess d'Orleana, Capt Hutton, then lying in the port of Havre, Franco, and bound for New York. She s illed on the flth of Au gust, 1561, with over n hundred souls on hoard, mostly emigrant*- A few days after leaving Havre, the small pox broke out among the emigrants, They wore all treated by the physician iu charge,Dr. N. W. Scut, with anew remedy of hi* own, which ho call* Negative Elec tric Fluid, with which he seemed to have entire control over the disease, arresting it in u few hours, and curing iu 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 prompt uess. From wlmt we aaw during said passage, we are fully convinced that the medicine used by Dr. Scat 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 trouble to the nurse.

Woodman's Cherry Expectorant con tains the active medical qualities of the Yellow Jesaminu, the pure decoction of Wild Cherry Bark, and many other valuable ingredients that render it far better than an other Cough Medicine in this country. RECOMMENDATIONS. New Orleans, April 9, 1855. Dear Fir—The public generally are fully aware of the tliousauds of remedies for Diseased Lungs, under the titles of Sarsaparlllas. Pills, Plasters, Liniments, Ac., that are daily brought to their notice through the newspapers by way of advertisements. My object in writing this note for publication, is to induce the public, or at least those who are afflicted, to use one that contains articles of Ileal Vse, in Pulmonary Diseases'. lam conscious that in so doing, 1 am acting most unproi'cssionally.and deroga torily to the interests of Medical Fcicuee and the regular Praotitiomu sos Medicine, i refer to Woodman’s Cherry Expectorant, which is a scientific remedy that 1 have used with more success than any of the usual prescrip tions used by Physicians. J. M. Maitland, M. D. Gallatin. Miss., May 1. 1855. O. 0. Woodman—Door Sir; 1 have given your Cherry Expectorant a fair trial and am well pleased with its ef fects : better tlmu any other article 1 ever met with. I would be pleased to liavo you send mo half a dozen bot tles by tho bearer. Respectfully. W. M. Mason, M. D. This preparation has attained, a wide celebrity from the universal success which has attended its use. For roughs, colds, and in fact, any pulmonary complaints this medicine, from its peculiar properties as a dissolvi nt and its soothing power to all irritations of the throat will probably bo preferred to any other offered to the public. As an appetizer, or dyspeptic remedy, it will also be found excellent, its natural and gonial warmth keeping the digestive powers iu proper tone.
