TS3ATIVE ELECTRIC FLUID, Prepared by N. W. Seat, M. D. lit mod* why it should be used instead of any other treat ment in all Febrile affections: lt.--£coaomy of Time. —A# only one-seventh el tbo ordinary time is required to effect a cure. ‘iiU'Economy of Money, —As it costs but one dollar. 3rd.—Economy of Feeling.— As it saves the suffering of a long sickness and the consequent treat ment; the annoyance of taking nausoating doses of aaediciDe, their disagreeable operation, and the pain of long confinement; hut little of the fluid being necessary, and that pleasant in its effects. *th. — 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. 3tli.— Economy of Health. —As the system is not reduced, and consequently racked; nor is the fever ruhjoct to be followed by chronic disease. tlth, — 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 bo added, but these are doomed sufficient to satisfy all classes and jatrsons in all condi tions of life. The above reasons ar ■ more particularly applicable to Uie immediate treatment oti the first attack, but will apply with equal force to cases which have been subject ed to or have become reduced, corresponding of course Vi the nature of the case at the time it is ffrst adminis tered. As this remedy gives so prompt, effectual and perma nent rebel, in all ordinary cases, when used soon after the attack, persons can scarcely realise Unit they hat been really much sick, and very naturally conclude tin y wer • not attacked with fever, and if so, “it was trifling —a little cold, which gave alarm—lt could have been nothing of consequence—it would have passed oil’ witli oni anything—that medicine had noeffect.” The general impression on the subject of fever is such, that thoughts not unlike the above follow the euro of a common case i-.s naturally as men think at all; and it is not until ‘ be individual has witnessed many cases that, lie can fully .ualiao the truth; and oven then he may conclude them all very tilfling 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 ruses occur where there is some organic or local cause so great as to require particular attention, or though sitceessiul in reducing the fever, . it will again rise as tbo influence of the “Fluid” passes olf, as the exciting cause muy still exist, it is to guard against disappointment m sae.li cases that I have given nnd frequently refer to what 1 have culled a “ synopsis.” Remarks on Fever* lu General* On this subject I wish to be fully undersbxid. lly the term “fevers,” 1 comprehend all febrile affections to which the human frame is subject, including small pox and other eruptive fevers; but as they arise by a great variety of causes, nnd in quite dissimilar constitutions uud habits, they of course differ considerably iri their development and exhibit a variety of forms or types; yet all are distinguished by the same general character istics—that ol undue excitement in the circulatory and nervous systems—inducing more or less unnatural fre quency in tlio pulse, sense of heat, dryness of the skin, debility, Ac. To show that I am not wholly alone in the opinion I advance, X quote from tbu celebrated I’rof. T. M atson, ol King’s College, Loudon, whose work on tho - 1 i’riuci p|. -and Practice Os Physic” is a text hook in many of our medical colleges, and consequently standard authority. (in pago 834, he says:—“Wo hear continually, both In and out of the profession, different species of fever spo ken of. liy the public, Typhus Fever, ltrain Fever, bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever, sic. Ami systematic writers are to the full as particular: Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, (lustro-Kntone, and so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows Itself under various forms, I am persuaded that the eflect upon tho mind of all this sub-division, is bad and hurtful. It eucourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre scribe for a disease according to its naine. There is no lino of genuine distinction DetWoen continued fevors, that can bo relied on. They run insensibly into each other, ovuu the most dissimilar of them, und are often traceable to the same cause.” Tho above Is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance and I would impress on your minds the folly of bunting up or troubling yourself about u “ name;” if you have lever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and you Mill be well insteud of any distinctcliaraoter being dcvul ■ -pod, so as to be properly named by the most scientific. This assertion is no hypothesis based pn closet specula tiuns or visions of mind, but on experience at the bod sido of tbo sick, in hundreds, ayo, thousands of cases (by myself and others) under a great variety of cir cumstances, seasons and climates, bear this in nitud, and treat at once without regard to name., ami rest assured you will soon he freed from all dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers. Hut as cases may have be come developed before the “ Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under some other treatment, 1 will describe as briefly as possible the proper course to be pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though the ** Rules” and “ Synopsis” will be amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon tho sick. Utiles important to hr observed in all cases in using the Negative Electric Fluid. ,Ist. It should bo given In three or four times Us own quantity of water, and may bo sweetened or not at pleasure!. Sid. Patients must bo free from all currents of air, (though there should always bo free ventilation in the sick rootti,) nor attempt to go about while under its in fluence. 3d. It must he continued whenever the fever subsides, or is evidently passing off; to bo resumed when it begins to rise again, should such be the case under any circumstances. 4th. When the fever begins to subside, patients must, bo left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should not bo questioned as to tlieir wan-tH or feelings, nor attempt to converse, read or take any exercise whatever, till tlieir own natural ftdingt, independent of all extra neous influences, induce them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation bo allowed in tlieir hearing, in which they may feel more or less interested, but be left quiet to all intents and purposes. Mil. Fluids 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 cold or warm, as parties may prefer or patients desire. bill. Should patients experience any oppression or faiulnesa while iu the lying posture, so as to occasion a restlessness after the 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 breast maybe bathed iu 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, “ &to 15 “ “ “ 2 “ 5 “ l2 to 30 “ “ 6 “ 10 “ “ 20 to 60 “ 8 “ 15 half to a teaspoonful. All persons over fifteen considered as adults, for whom a tonspoonful is a commou dose. Old persons do net require us much as young, or those iu the prime of life; nor females, as a general rule, as much u.< males. There la uo particular care necessary iu giviug it to children —those often years of age frequently having taken full doses; hut for a little guide, 1 have given the above table, with the remark that, as a general rule, children require more than adults iu proportion. By observing the above directions, the medifftne will bes mud agreeable in all of its effects, the expectations of the most sanguine realized, and many perfectly astonished. My object lu being thus particular is, that the full bouellt of the medicine tnay bo obtained, and not on account of nuy acttuil necessity of such strict ob servances. Bilious or Remittent Fever. Give a teasponful of “Fluid” (see rule Ist) once in two hours, till the fever is evidently passing off; this constitutes the whole treatment in all simple oases of fqvor, with such observances as are sot forth in the “ltules.” Hut should there be prominent local symp toms, or known local existing causes, they should be attMidud to at once, uud while giving the “ Fluid.” See Synopsis. If iu any ease the bowels are particularly constipated or routined, pive a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with tho fl rst portionthey must be opened or the fever may rise again. Where the fever is very high, pulse running 110 or upwards, and tho pntiout is not particularly susceptible t.< tho iufiumiee of medicine —not easily operated on by medicine generally—a double dose, or two teaspoousful may bo given at first with advantage, and even repeated In two hours—if it—the pulse—lias not been softened, thus showing the medicine has taken effect. Buthiug the surface with water at an agreeable temperature, the saline wash, vinegar or spirits nnd water, in these difficult eases, will afford relief nnd aid tho medicine much iu takiug effect. Congestive Fever. Ohre two taaspoousful and repeat every two hours till tho pulse becomes more full and soft, thru only a tea spoonful, to be discontinued as tile fever subsides. As the bowels are generally confined, and it Is frequently very difficult to get medicine to operate in thlv disease, uo t line should be lost to get them opeu, give some active cathartic with tho “ Fluid” and repeat as may l>o neces sary till it operates; euemas (injections) may also be used to advantage; also, mustard to the extremities, or friction (rubbing) with the hands or flantfel; also, bold applications to the head. Quinitie may be added to the “ Fluid” if thought advisable. 800 Synopsis, Nervous Fever, Typhus, Ship and Putrid or Spotted Fever, As these fevers are all of one character, differing iimiuly in degree, being all of a low grade, the pulse •iiutll and wiry, with a general great depression there is no practical use in separating them—at least so far ns my treatment is concerned, lu these low fevors, w hen fully developed, a little patience will be required; still comparatively little, hs they frequently run weeks under tlu, common treatment, while with this but a few days will I*, necessary at longest to establish a permanent cenvuleuoence. Tho treatment should be commenced—whieh may immediately follow any other without detriment with a teaspoonftil of “ Fluid” every two hours, till the pulse becomes fuller or larger in volnme, then to be continued nc* in stator eight hours till fever entirely subsides. In bod eases, from three to live grains each of quinine and capsicum. (Cayenne pepper) or some tonic and stimu laut (see auxiliaries) should bo added to each close. The bowels should ho kept gently open, and small portions of some liepalw should bo given occasionally, oven though the bowols should be very loose. Tbo patient should bo sustained by nourishing and mucilageuous drinks—such as are iu common use in such cases.— Where the skin is very dry, sponging tile surface as di rected iu bilious fever, will be found advantageous. Tonics should he used during convalescence, in all cases which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typlioitl Pneumonia, Dung or Winter Fever. Give a teaspoonful of the “Fluid” every two hours, with a wino-glasslul ofa stroug decoction of Loueoet; or half tho quantity may be given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say once in six or eight hours. The boneset tea should bo given warm till the violent symptoms are allayed, or the patient is relieved; then cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, 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, anil 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. Remember never wuit to learn the “name,” whether it is one or the oilier, or neither, as they all commence with fever, but trout it at unco; govern the fever and there will l;e no trouble; there will be but little eruption even iu small pox. Tills, 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; attended with but little erup tion; little or no idtting, and that there is no necessity of its running its ordinary course. On this 1 will stake not only my reputation, tint all that l hold most dear; besides, on this subject, 1 have good authority; that of Prof. Watson, previously quoted. He says, pago 874: “ You may übate the force of the eruptive lever, and keep down, it is believed, lliu number oj the pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Here is the admission that it may be done. I nave not only proven it mug be, but has been done in numerous cases that occurred on board ship. fice.tlie account appended. Give a teaapoouful or more, according to the urgency of tlie ease, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat the Fluid once hi two hours if necessary, until the fever sub sides —though one or two doses is generally sufficient; but it should he given and repeated sufficiently to keep tlio fever under control. When the throat is affected, any of the ordinary gargles may be used, and the surface batliod, as thought advisable. In one ottse, on the ship Duchessd’OrleanS, the tongue and sauces were so much swollen that the patient could not swallow or speak, and he was cured by dropping the Fluid oil his tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow, when it was given iu teaspoonful doses every houri till all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of tho throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment in about twelve hours by tho Fluid alone.— Used to wet tho throat frequently, it is doubtless the best gargle in all such cases. Puerperal or CHililljetl Fever. This heretofore painful, dangerous ami 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 r. toaspoonful, almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need lie entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it in a slioi t time, it should lie re pealed ns long us the foyer continues, as in other cases. Tho bowels of course should be attended to. iu connection witli this subject, I cannot refrain from making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by the Indies, will save them much pain and suffering, it is to inform them of tlio happy effect of the Fluid in many of tlieir trials, in child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives the labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must ho triad to ho appreciated.— Painful menstruation will bo relieved tit once by a com mon dose ami retiring. Restlessness, nervous irritability, ora cold taken at a delicate time, is easily relieved by its use; in short, it is one of tho moat convenient and offoctuai remedies for many of the ills of females, it not the most so of any medicine known. Us uff'ect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability and iritalillity of the nervous as well as the circulatory, it will not force sleep like opiates, but it. will sooth and quiet tlio system so that one can sleep naturally and healthy; lienee its use iu 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 eases. As the Negative Llectric Fluid Will change the condition called lever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name it may Lai or ought to be called, it should he given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot ho ex pected to control all organic or local causes, which, when Biieli exist, must be removed iu order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any case, they should be appropriate means, and these soliuld be given w hile giviug the “Fluid,” and iu connection with it, when occasion requires, as they will then more readily act, producing moro general effect, besides uo unnecessary time will then be lost. As the 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 the first dose, or soou after, und should it fail to operate in due time, repeat tho dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something known to he good for that complaint, though if caused by irritability, the “Fluid” will soon relievo that condition; if severe local pail! or inflammation, apply some stimulating liniment, a mustard phister, a blister, fomentations of bitter herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet in cold water, lo tho part; if violent pain in tho head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe tho feet iu hot water; if the fever is very high, skiu dry and hot, with great suffering, sponge or liathe the whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature; “tiie 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 lie no trou ble ; it the pat font lias beeu reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonies and stimulants, particularly in low fevers, in absence of fever or when indicated; also, during convalescence, when tlio patient lias become re duced; if there is nausea and vomitiug, that must be allayed before any medicine will remain on the stomach to do any good; for this purpose 1 generally give some gentle emetic to cleanse 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 circumstances, giving tho “Fluid” at the same time as directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till you have seen, aud then you will bo astonished at the case with which you can control all febrile excitement. Auxiliaries. I'arties may feel at a less to know what is meant by cathartics, Ac., as physicians are usually particular about what is iiHod. 1 have found ho such necessity when using the Fluid, and to he fully understood by all, 1 will name a tew of the different articles of medi cine 1 have referred to, viz:— Cat Hart Ics.— Articles that purge or operate on the bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots or Larks, and many pills, antlbilious, Ac.; anything known to bo good for such purposes. Hepatic*.— Anything known to act on the liver particularly, portal circulation and secretions generally. Any of the articles depended on by tho different schools for this purpose, will answer when used in connection with the “Fluid” or while the system is under its in ti nonce. Ami cue may choose calomel—another, blue mass—the third, pottopliyllin— the fourth, mandrake root, mid so on; each may take Ids choice and be suc cessful. Tonic*.—Articles that give tono or strength, such as quinine, various harks, roots and bitter herbs. Bone sot or I borough wort is one of the best used iu fevers. A sti lngeiil s.—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. Stimulant*.—Articles that raise or excite the system. Capsicum (Cayenne popper) is one of the host; ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., the essences are ail more or less stimulating. These are the only classes necessa ry ill treating fevers, though many ethers are generally used, but the Negative Electric Fluid ts a better “ dia phoretic,” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and ” sedative” than known iu the materia medico. I shall not tax the reader with a long list of proofs, depending mainly on tho results of a trial, and will only refer to one instance of success, that on the Pnckrtshlp Duchess D’Orleans. which cannot bo classed among ordinary certificates: We, the undersigned, certify to tlio following, viz— Wo took passage on the packetship Duchess d’Orleaiis Capt Hutton, then lviug in the port of Havre. France* and bound for New York. She sailed on the 9th of Au gust, 1851, with over u hundred souls on beard, mostly emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, the small pox broke out among the emigrants, Thev were all treated by the physician iu charge, Dr. N. \V.‘ Seat, with anew remedy of his own, which he calls Negative ’ Elec tric Fluid, with which he seemed to have entire control over the disease, arresting It in a sow hours, and curing in h very short time. During the voyage, which lasted thirty-nine days, there w ere about eighty cases of small pox, sonic fever Ac., nod not a single death. All were cured with unu sual promptness. From what we saw during said passage, we are fall v conviticod that the medicine used by Dr. Seat on the oc casion. possesses inestimable virtue's. We never before beard or road of febrile affections being controlled w ith so much ease, promptness and certainty, or so little trouble to the nurse. A crowded ship, a long passage, smnll pox nnd fever on board, and not a death! The fact speaks for itself. Signed, K. I'. Fabki, 84 Pearl street, New York. E. G.Fabri, “ “ “ .1. A. DkNormandt.

Dear Sir —The public generally are fully aware of (he thousands of remedies for Diseased Lungs, under the titles of Sarsaparillas, Pills, Plasters, Liniments, Ac., that are daily brought to their notice through the newspapers by way of advertisements.

This preparation has attained a wide celebrity from the universal success which has attended its use. For cough*, colds, and in fact, any pulmonary complaints, this medicine, from its peculiar properties as a dissolvent nnd its soothing power to all irritations of tho throat, will probably be preferred to any other offered to the public.
