N UINATIVE EL.ECTBIC FLUID, Prepared by SI. W . Seal, M. D. : >ust>n why it should be use.l instead of any other treat ment in ull Febrile affections: (at.—Gvuuomy of Time.—As only one-seventh ■ ; tin. ordinary time is required to effect a cure. I(l.—Feonomy of Money.—As it costs but ono dollar. 3rd.—Economy of Keeling.—As it saves the suffering of a long sickness and the consequent treat ment ; the. annoyance of taking nauseating doses of medicine, their disagreeable operation, and the pain of long confinement; but little of the fluid being necessary, ami that pleasant in its effects. ltli.—Economy of Thought.—As when known, it will remove all dread and anxiety at present •xlstiug. respecting febrile affections', particularly while a dear friend is sick. S!l.—Economy of Health.—As the system is not reduced, and consequently racked; nor is the fever subject to lie followed by chronic disease. •>tli.— 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 ‘irini nation. Other reasons might be added, but these are deemed sirlileient to satisfy all classes and persons in all condi tions iif life. Tin, above reasons nr more particularly applicable to tlie immediate treatment on the first attack, Inn will apply with equal force to cases which have been subject 'd to or have become reduced, corresponding id’ course ’ o tho nature of the case at tin; time it is first adminis tered. As iliis remedy gives so prompt, effectual and purma n lit relief, in all ordinary eases, when used soon after the attack, persons can scarcely realise that they hod in eii really much sick, anil very naturally conclude th y wer • not attacked with fever, and if so, “it was trilling a little cold, which gave alarm—it could have been inning of consequence—it would have passed off with out anything—that medicine had noeffect.” The general impression on the subject of fever is such, that thoughts not unlike the above follow the cure of a common case naturally ns men think at all; and it is not until * ‘ic individual lias witnessed many cases that lie can fully ."tiltzc tile truth; and oven then he limy conclude them alt very trifling eases, which would have readily yielded to any simple moilieinn, yet persons, though tiiey have I” eii thus successful iu perhaps hundreds of cases, must expect that there will cases occur win-re there is some organic or local cause so great us hi require particular attention, or though success.ul in reducing the fever, it will again rise as the iufltieuco of the •• Fluid” passes oir, as the exciting cause may still exist. It is to guard against disappointment ill SUCH cases that 1 have given and frequently refer to what I have called a “ synopsis.” Remarks (in Fevers In General* On tins subject L wish to be fully understood. Ily the win “lovers,” I comprehend all febrile affections to which tlie human frame is subject, including small [six and other eruptive fevers; hut as they arise by a great variety of causes, mid in quite dissimilar constitutions .uni habits, they of course differ considerably in their development and exhibit a variety of forms or types; yet ull are distinguished by tiie same general character istics—that ol undue excitement in tlie circulatory and nervous systems—inducing more or less unnatural fre quency in tlie pulse, sense of heat, dryness of tlie skin, debility, &c. to show that l am not wholly alone in tho opinion I advance, I quote from tho cclobrufed Prof. T. Watson, and King's College, liomlon, whoso work on the •• I’rinci pies and Practice of Physio” is a textbook in many of • nr medical colleges, and consequently stundardaulhorily. On p >ge 834, lie says:—“We hear continually, both in and out of tlie profession, different species of fever spo ken of. By tho public, Typhus Fever, Brain Fever, Bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, bow Fever, Nervous Fever, .iu. And systematic writers lire to the full as particular: Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Unstro-Kiitcric, and so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, I am persuaded that the effect upon tho mind of all this sub-division, is had and hurtful. It encourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pro scribe for a disease according to its name. There is no line of genuine distinction between continued fevers, llmt can bo relied on. Tiiey run insensibly into each oilier, even the most dissimilar of them, and are often traceable to tlie same cause.” Tlie above is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance nud t would impress on your minds the folly of hunting up or troubling yourself about a “Maine;” if you have fever, treat it at once us hereafter directed, and you mill be. well instead of any distincteharueter being devel oped, so ns to ba properly named by the most scientific. This assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula tions or visions of mind, but on experience at the bed side of tlio sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands of eases (by myself ami others) under u great variety of cir cumstances, seasons ami climates. Bear this m mind, and treat at once without regard to name, and rest assured you will soon tie freed from ull dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers. But us cases may have be come developed before tlie ‘• Fluid” is given, either by neglect, er under some other treatment, 1 will describe as bristly as possible tlie proper course to lie pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though the “ Rules” and “ Synopsis” will lie amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon the sick. Hides important to be observed in all cases in using the Negative Electric Fluid. Ist. It should be given in throe or four times its own quantity of water, ami limy lie sweetened or not at pleasure. ‘.id. Patients must ho free from all currents of air, (though there shouldulways lie free ventilation in the sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in fluence. fid. It must lie continued whenever tho fever subsides, or is evidently passing off; to be resumed when it begins to rise again, Bhould such lie tlie case under any circumstances. 4th. When tho fever begins to subside, patients must be left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should not lie questioned ns to their wants or toolings, nor attempt to converge, read or take any exercise whatever, till their own naturalfeelings, independent of all extra neous influences, ituhtce them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation be allowedin their hearing, in which tiiey may feel more or less interested, but be left quiet Mall Intents and purposes. ot.li. Fluids should bo allowed, while giving it as plentifully, and as long as tlie patient desires uml no lunger; tiiey may consist of cold water, mucilagiuous drinks, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, either coM or warm, as parties may prefer or patients desire. 6th. .Should patients experience any oppression or faintness while In tlie lying posture, so us to occasion a rest lessness after the fever has passed off, or enough to nccagiou them to speak of it, they should have a little wine, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade witli a little spirit, ginger, or some other stimulant; or tlie faee and breast may lie bathed in cold water; cither of which will give immediate relief. TABLE OF DOSES. For children of one year or under, from 3 to 8 drops. “ over 1 and tuulor 2 years, “ sto 15 “• “ 2 “ ft “ “ It! to 30 “ “ “ ft “ 10 “ “ “0 to 00 “ “ “ 8 “ Ift half to a tenspoouful. All persons over fifteen considered as adults, for w hom a leospooiiful is a common dose. Old persons do not require us much as young, or those iu tlie prime of life; nor females, as a general rule, as much as males. There is no particular care necessary iu giving it to children—those often years of age frequently having taken full doses ; but for a little guide, 1 have given the above table, with the remark that, as a general rule, tliililreu require more thau adults in proportion. By observing the above directions, the medicine w ill be found agreeable in all of its effects, tho expectations of tlie most sanguine realized, and many perfectly astonished. My object In being thus particular is, that tiie full benefit of tlie medicine may bo obtained, and not on account of any actual necessity of such strict ob servances. unions or Remittent Fever. (live a teaspouful of “ Fluid” (see rule Ist) once in two hours, till the fever is evidently passing off; this constitutes tlu) whole treatment in all simple cases of fever, with such observances as are set forth in the •• Rules.” But should there be prominent local symp toms, or known local existing causes, they should bo attended to at once, and while giving tiie “Fluid.” See Synopsis. it'in any case the bowels are particularly constipated or confined, give a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the first portion; they must be opened or tho fever may rise again. Where the fever is very high, pulse running HO or upwards, aud the patient is not particularly susceptible to the influence of medicine—not easily operated ou by medicine generally—a double dose, or two teaspoonsful may be given at first witli advantage, and even repeated in two hours —if it—the pulse—has not been softened, Unis showing tlie medicine lias taken effect. H.ttliiug tlie surface witli water at an agreeable temperature, tlie saline wash, vinegar er spirits anil water, In these difHcult ruses, will afford relief and aid tlie luodlelno much Iu taking effect. Congestive Fever. • live two teaspoonsl'ul and repeat every two hours till the pulse becomes more full and soft, then only a tea spoonful, to be discontinued as tlie fever subside). As tlie bowels are generally confined, and it is frequently very difficult to get medicine to operate in tills disease, no t ime should lie lost to got them open, give some active ithurtic with the “ Fluid” and repeat as may be neces sary till it operates; enemas (injections) may also lie used to advantage; also, mustard to tlie extremities, or frietion(rubbing) with the hands or flannel; also, cold applications to tlie head. Quinine may be added to tlie ‘• Fluid” if thought advisable. Fee Synopsis. Nervous Fever, Typhus, Ship and Putrid or Spotted Fever. As these fevers are all of one character, differing trwiinly in degree, being 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 us my treatment is concerned, in those low fevers, when fully devel'qawl. a little patience will lie required: still comparatively little, us they frequently run weeks under tlm common treatment, while with this but a few days will be necessary at longest to establish a permanent convalescence. The treatment should be eoinmonced—which may immediately follow any other without detriment with a teaspoonful of Fluid” every two hours, till the pulse becomes fuller or larger in volume, then to be continued nee in six or eight hours till t*o fover entirely subsides. In baj cases, from three to five grains each of quinine and cafutieuni (Cayenne popper) or some tonic und stimu lant (see auxiliaries; should be added to each dose. The bowels should ho kept gently open, aud small ]xirtious of some hejKUic should be given occasionally, even though the bowels should lie very loose. The patient should be sustained by uuurisliiug aud mucilageuous drinks—such us are iu common use in such cases.— Where tlie skin is very dry, sponging the surface as di rected iu bilious fover, will be found advantageous. Tonics should lie used during convalescence, iu ull cases which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typliolil or Winter Fever. • liven teaspoon) ul of tlie “Fluid” every two hours, wilb a wine-glupsful of u strong decoction of buneset; or lia.lt’ tlie quantity may bo given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say once iu six or eight hours. The boneset tea should bo given warm till tlie violent symptoms are allayed, or tlie patient is relieved; then cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, er something of the kind, to lie applied over the scat of pain ; keep liio bowels gently open. Variola, Varioloid, Rubeola ami Scarla tina; or Small Fox, Varioloid, Measles, anti Scarlet Fever. As all of these discuses are attended wiUi i'ovir, which in fact is tlie most prominent symptom, tho treatment differs line little from that of common fevers. Remember never wait to learn tlie “ namef’ whether it is one or tho other, or neither , as tiiey all commence with fever, but treat it at once; govern the fever and there will be ho trouble; there w ill lie Out little eruption even iu small pox. This, to most minds, is anew idea, aud 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 slu/rt; attended w itli hut little erup tion; little or no pitting, and that there is no necessity of its running its ordinary course. On this 1 will sink..- not only my reputation, but u.l that 1 bold most dear; besides, Oil this subject, 1 have good authority; that of l’rof. Watson, previously quoted, lie says, page 371: “You may abate tlie force „f tlio eruptive lever, and keep down, it is believed, tlie number oj the pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Here is tho admission that it may be done, i nave not only proven it may be., but has been done in numerous coses tii.it occurred on board ship. Bee tlio account appended. (live a tcaspooiiful or more, according to tlie urgency of tho case, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat tlie Fluid once in two hours il necessary, until the fever sub sides—though one or two doses is generally sufficient; but it should be giveu and repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under control. When the throat is affected, any of Ike ordinary gargles may he used, and tlie surface bathed, as thought advisable. In one case, on tlio ship Duchess d’Urleuns, the tongue and tuucus were so much swollen that the patient could not swallow or speak, and ho was cured by dropping tlio Fluid on bis tongue, drop by drop, till he could sw allow, when it was given in teaspoonful doses every hour, till nil alarming symptoms disappeared. Tho swelling of tho throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment ill nliout twelve hours by the Fluid alone.— Used to wot tho throat frequently, it is doubtless the best yuryte in all such euses. Puerperal or Childbed Fever. This heretofore painful, dangerous and uluruiing malady to which tlio mother is liable, will yield to the Negative Klcctric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem to lie of little consequence. A single dose or two of a tcaspooiiful, almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need bo entertained, ns the Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should bo re peated as long as tho fvor continues, as iu other cases. Tho bowels id course should lie attended to. In connection with this subject, 1 cannot refrain from making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by tlie ladies, will save them much pain uml suffering. It is to inform them of tlio happy effect of tlio Fluid in many 111 their trials. In chihl-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives tlio labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must be tried to bo appreciated.— Painful menstruation will bo 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 tlio most convenient and effectual remedies for many of tlio 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 tlio nervous as well as tlio circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and quiet Hie system so that ouo 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, 1 give under this head general directions for nil euses. As the Negative Idee trie Fluid will change the condition called lever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name it may be or ought to lie called, it should bo giveu wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot bo ex pected to control nil organic or local causes, which, when such exist, must be removed iu ordi i to effect a permanent cure. When such iudicatious occur in any case, they should be appropriate means, and tlieso soliuld be giveu while giving the “Fluid,” and iu connection with it, when occasion requires, as they w ill then more readily act, producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary timo will then bo lost. As the ‘, Fluid” alone will sub due tho fever, 1 call all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels mo costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) with the first dose, or booh alter, aud should it fail to operate iu duo time, repeat the dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something known to be good for that complaint, though if caused by irritability, tlie “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 iu cold water, to the part; if violent pain In the head, apply cold water, iee water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe tho feet in hot water; if the fover is very high, skin dry and hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe tlie whole surface w ith water at mi agreeable temperature; “the saline wash,” vinegar and water or spirits and water, cither will afford great relief mid aid tlie medi cine in taking effect, after which there will be no trou ble ; if the patient iias been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics aud 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 uml vomiting, that must be allayed before any medicine w ill remain on tlio stomach to do any good: for this purpose I generally give some gentle emetic to cleanse the stomach; warm water, if given plentifully, will answer every purpose; when the stomach hits settled, give the •• Fluid - ’ and a cathartic if necessary.; in short, treat all the prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giving the “Fluid” at the same time us directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed, you canuot realize it till you have seen, and then you will he astonished at tho ease with w hich 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 articles of medi cine I have referred to, viz:— Cat bailies.—Articles that purge or operate on the bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots or barks, and many pills, antibilious, Ac.; anything known to bo good for such purposes. Deputies.—Anything known to act on tlie liver particularly, portal circulation and secretions generally. Any of the articles depended on by tile different schools for this purpose, will answer when used in connection witli tho “Fluid” or while tlio 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 liis choice and be suc cessful. Tonics.—Articles flint give tone or strength, such as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. Bono set or tliorongliwort is one of tlie best used in fevers. Astringents.—Buck as cheek tlie action of the bowels. Laudanum and other preparations of opium me used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents, which have tlie effect. Stimulants.—Articles that raise or excite the system. Capsicum (Cayenne popper) is one of the best; ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., tlm essences are all more or less stimulating, riie.se are tlio only classes necessa ry in treating fevers, though ninny others are generally used, hut tlio Negative Electric Fluid is better •• dia phoretic,” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “ relaxant ” and “sedative” than known in the materia mntica. 1 shall not tax tho reader w ith a long list of proofs, depending mainly on the results of a trial, and will ouly refer to one instance of success, that on the Pnckrtslilji Ductless D’Orleans. which cannot he classed among ordinary certificates: We, the undersigned, certify to tlio* following, viz— We took passage on tlie packetsliip Duchess d’Orleans, Capt Hutton, then lying in the port of Havre. Franco and bound for Now York. She sailed on the 9th 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 tlio emigrants, They wore all treated by the physician in charge,Dr. X. W. Beat, with anew remedy of his own, which he calls Negative Klee trie Fluid, with which lie seemed to have entire control over the disease, arresting it in a 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 n 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. Beat on the oc casion, |K>ssesses Inestimable virtues. We never before heard or read of febrile affections being controlled witli so much ease, promptness and certainty, or so little trouble to the nurse.
