‘I EGATIVE ELECTRIC FLUID,
ly N. W. Sc*l, M. D.
l\i ajon why it, should bo used instead of any other treat -
mnnt In all Febrile affections :
iah—Ucouum/of Time. —As only one-semutA
dI the ordinary time* is required to effect a core.
‘!(l. Ki otiomy of Money.—A it costa but one
■foliar.
3rtl.—Keimomy of Keeling.—A* it saves tlin
suffering or a long sickness ami the consequent treat
men t; the annoyance of taking nauseating doses'of
medicine, their disagreeable operation, and the pain of
long confinement; but little of tbu Quid being necessary,
and that pleasant in its oilects.
4th.—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.
sth.—Kconomy of Health.—As the system
is not reduced, and consequently racked; nor is the fever
subject to be followed by chronic disease.
Oth.—Kconomy of Life.—As the cure iselfected
before aud without reducing tile patient, consequently
removing, in a corresponding degree, all danger ol a fatal
termination.
Other reasons might he tuldod, hut these are duumed
hultlolent to satisfy all classes aud persons in all condi
tions of life.
‘fhe above reasons arc more particularly applicable to
Hie immediate treatment on Hit- Hist attack, but will
apply with equal foroe to caeca which have been subject
ed toor have become reduced, corresponding of coursh
to the nature of the case at tjiu time it is tirst adminis
tered.
As this remedy gives so prompt, effectual and poruia
ircul relict, in all ordinary cases, when used soon after
the attack, persons can scarcely realize that they had
been really much sick, and very naturally conclude they
wars not attacked witli fever, and if so, “it was trilling
a little cold, which gave alarm—it could have been
nothing of consequence—it would huve passed off with
out anything—that medicine liad nueftect.” The general
impression on the subject of fever is such, that thoughts
not unlike Die above follow the cure of a common case
as naturally as men think at all; and it is not until
*‘io individual has witnessed many cases that he can fully
.eal ire the truth; and oven then he may conclude them
all very trifling cases, which would have readily yielded
to any simple medicine, yet persons, though they have
been Urns 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 succuss.ul ill reducing the fever,
it will again i ise as the influence of the “ Fluid” passes
off, as the exciting cause may still exist. It is to guard
against disappointment ill such cases tiiat 1 have given
und frequently refer to what I have called a “synopsis.”.
Remarks on Fevero In Ueneral*
On this subject I wisli to be fully understood. Ily the
term “fevers,” 1 comprehend all febrile affections to
which the human frame is subject, including sninll pox
and other eruptive fevers; but as they arise by a great
variety bf causes, and in quite dissimilar constitutions
and habits, they of course differ considerably in their
development ami exhibit a variety of forms or types;
yet all are distinguished by tho same general character
istics—that ol undue excitement in tho circulatory and
nervous systems —inducing more or less unnatural fre
quency in the pulse, sense of-heat, dryness of the skin,
debility, Ac.
To show that 1 am not wholly alone in tiie opinion l
advance, I quote from the celebrafod Prof. T. Watson,
of King’s College, l.oudou, whose work on ilie “ l'Hnci
ob-s and Practice of Physic” is a textbook in many of
our medical colleges, and consequently stanilarilaiU/utrily.
On page B:t4, lie says:—“We hear continuallyboth in
and out of tile profession, different species offerer spo
ken of. Ily the public, Typhus Fever, Brain Fever,
Bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever,
Ac. And systematic writers are to the full as particular:
.Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, GastroHuteric, aud
so forth. Now, admitting that, fever shows itself under
various forms, I am persuaded that the effect upon tho
intud of all this sub-dlvlsion, is bad ami htirtful. it
encourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre
scribe for a disease according to its name. There is no
liixi of genuine distinction between continued fevers,
I bat can ho relied on. They run insensibly into each
other, oven tho most dissimilar of thorn, and are often
traceable to the same cause.”
The ataive is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance
and 1 would impress on your minds the folly of hunting
up or troubling yourself about a “name;” if you have
lever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and you
ivill lie well instead of any distinctcharacter being devel
oped, so as to be properly named by the most scientific.
This assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula
tions or visions of miud, but on experience at the bed
side of the sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands of eases
(by myself aud others) under a great variety of cir
cumstances, seasons anil climates. Bear tills in mind,
aud treat at onco without regard to name , and rest
assured you will soon he freed from all dread of linger
ing and 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 os possible the proper course to be pursued in
all of the most prominent fevers, though the “ Jlules”
aud “ Synopsis” will he amply sufficient for all those
accustumed to attendance upou tho sick.
Hales important to be observed in all cases in using the
Negative Electric Fluid.
Ist. it should be given in three or four times its own
quantity of water, and nmy be sweetened or not at
pleasure.
•2d. Patients must be froo from all currents of air,
(though there should always ho free ventilation in tho
sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in
fluence.
lid. It must bo continued whenever tho fever subsides,
or is evidently passing off; to be resumed when it
begins to rise again, should such be the case under any
circumstances.
4th. Whim the fever begins to subside, patients must
be left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should
not be questioned us to their wants or feelings, nor
attempt to converse, read or take any exercise whatever,
till their own natural feelings, independent of all extru
u, oils influences, induce them to rise or speak; nor
should any conversation be allowed In their hearing, in
w hich they may feel more or less interested, but ho left
quiet to all intents aud purposes.
6th. Fluids should be allowed, while giving it as
plentifully, and us long as tho 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.
t'-tli. Should patieuts experience any oppression or
faintness while in tho lying posture, so as to occasion a
restlessness 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 aud
breast maybe bathed in cold water; either of which
will give immediate relief.
TABLE OF DOSES.
For children of one year or under, from I! to 8 drops.
“ over 1 ami under 2 years, “ 6to 15 “
“ “ 2 “ 5 “ l2 to 30 “
“ “ 5 “ 10 “ 20 to 60 “
“ A “ 16 half to a teaspoonfnl.
All persons over tlfteon considered as adults, for whom
a teaspoonfnl is a common dose. Old persons do not
require as much as young, or those in the prime of life;
uor females, as a general rule, as much as mules.
There is no particularcaro necessary in giving it to
children—those of ton 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 tlm above directions, the medicine will
be found agreeable hi all of its effects, tlm expectations
of the most sanguine realized, and matiy perfectly
astonished. My object in being thus particular is, that
the full benefit of the modiciue may bo obtained, and
not on account of any actual necessity of such strict ob
servances.
Bilious or Remittent Fever.
Give n teiisponfiil of “ Fluid” (see rule Ist) once in
two hours, till the fever is evidently passing off ; this
constitutes tho wholo treatment iu ail simple cases of
fever, with such observances as are set forth iu the
“ Rules.” Hut should there ho prominent local symp
toms, or known local existing causes, they should lie
attended to at once, aud while giving the “ Fluid.”
gee Synopsis.
If in auy case the bowels are particularly constipated
or confined, give a cathartic (soo auxiliaries) with the
first portion; they must lie 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
t<> the influence of medicine—not easily operated on by
medicine generally—a double dose, or two ti-uspoousful
may be giveu 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.
Bathiug the surface with water at an agreeable
temperature, the saline wash, vinegar or spirits and
water, in these difficult coses, will afford relief and aid
the medicine much iu takitig effect.
Congestive Fever.
Give two teaspoousfui and repeat every two hours till
the pulse becomes more full and soft, thru only a tea
spoonful, to bo discontinued as the fever subside). As
the bowels aro generally confined, and it is frequently
very difficult to get medicine to operate in tills disease,
no time should lie lost to get them open, give some active
cathartic with the “ Fluid” and repeat as may be neces
sary till it operates; enemas (injections) may also lie
used to advantage; also, mustard to tho extremities, or
friction (rubbing) witli the hands or flannel; also, cold
applications to tho head. Quinine tuny he added to the
“ Fluid” if thought advisable. See Synopsis.
Nervous Fever. Typhus, Ship and Putrid
or Spotted Fever.
As these fevers are all of one character, differing
muinly in degree, beiug all of n low grade, the pulse
siuali and wiry, witli a general great depression, there is
no practical use In separating them—at least so far as
my treatment is concerned. In these low fevers, wlieu
fully developed, a little patience will be required; still
comparatively little, as they frequently run weeks under
tho common treatment, while with this bat a few dnvs
will be necessary at longest to establish a permanent
convalescence.
‘the treatment should be commenced—which may
immediately follow any other without detriment—with
teaspoonful of “ Fluid” every two hours, till the pulse
becomes fuller or larger in volume, thou to be continued
aoa In six or eight honra till t*e fever eutlrely subsides.
; Tn bud cases, from three to five grains each of qutmtts
and capsicum (Cayenne pejijierj or some tonic aud -tlm u
; hint (sue auxiliaries, should be added to each.lope. Thu
i bowels should be kept gently open, and small portions
! of suuio hepatic should he given occasionally, even
though tlm bowels pinfold be very loose. Tho patient
j should be sustained by nourishing and niucilogenuus
drinks—such os are in common use iu such cases.—
! Where the skin is very dry, sponging the surface as di
i rected in bilious fever, will bo found advantageous,
i Tonics should be used during convalescence, in all eases
which have become reduced.
Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, hung
or Winter Fever.
(jive a teaspoonfnl of the “Fluid” every two hours,
with a wine-glassful of a strung decoction of boncNCt; or
half tho quantity may be giveu every hour till relieved,
then, at longer intervals, say once in six or eight hours.
The Loneset tea should bo giveu warm till the violent
symptoms are allayed, or the patient is relieved ; then
cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, or something of
tho kind, to be applied over the seat of pain ; keep the
bowels gently open.
Variola, Varioloid, Uubeola and Scarla
tina; or Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles,
and Scarlet Fever.
•As all of these disouses uro uLtended with fever, which
in fact is the most prominent symptom, the treatment
differs hue little from that of common levers, Remember
never wait to learn the ‘■name,” whether it is one or the
other, or neithe.r, as they all commence with J'cver, hilt
treat it at once; govern the lever and there will be no
trouble; there will be but little eruption even iu smalt
pox. This, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubtless
I will be regarded with ridicule by many, i nevertheless
boldly make the assertion, that small pox, if treated as
I direct, will be cut short ; attended with but little erup
tiou; little or no pitting, and that there is no necessity of
its running its ordinary coarse. On tills 1 will stake
not only my reputation, but ad that 1 hold most dear;
besides, oq tins subject, 1 have good authority; that of
Prof. Watson, previously quoted. lie says, page 874:
“You may abate tho force of tho eruptive lever, and
keep down, it is believed, the number of the pustules by
spline purges, Ac.” Here is the admission that it may
he done. 1 nave not only proven it may be, but has
been done in numerous cases that occurred on hoard
ship. See tho account appended.
Give a teaspoonfui or more, according to the urgency
of the case, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat the
Fluid once In two hours if necessary, until the fever sub
shles—.though one or two doses is generally sufficient;
hut it should he giveu and repeated sufficiently to keep
the fever under control. When the throat is affected,
any of the ordinary gargles limy be used, and the
surface bathed, as thought advisable.
In one ease, on the ship Duchess(VOrleans, the tongue
and Caucus were so much swollen that the patient could
not swallow or speak, and lie was cured by dropping the
Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow,
wlieu it was given iu teaspoonfui doses every hour, till
all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of
the throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour
ishment in about twelve hours by the Fluid alone.—
Used to wet the throat frequently, it is doubtless the
best gargle, in all such cases.
Puerperal or Childlxcit Fever.
This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming
malady to which tho 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 s
teaspoonfui, almost invariably giving entile and per
manent relief; no alarm need be entertained, ms the
Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should bo re
peated as long as tho foyer continues, us iu other cases.
The bowels of course Bhoulcl be attended to.
In connection with this subject, I 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 the happy effect of tho Fluid in
many of their trials. Jn child-birth, its relaxing and
soothing effect deprives thp labor of much of its pains
and difficulties; it must lie tried to he appreciated.
Painful menstruation will lie relieved at once by a com
mon dose and retiring, ltestlessness, 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
effectual remedies formally of the ills of females, if not
tiie most so of any medicine known. Its effect is uniform,
relaxing the wholo system, removing all excitability
and iritability of the nervous as well ms the circulatory.
It will not force sleep like opiates, hut it will sooth and
quiet the system so that one can sleep naturally and
healthy ; hence its use iu so many cases.
Synopsis.
To avoid constant repetition, and condense the treat
ment us much as possible, I give under this iiead general
directions for all cases. As tho Negative Electric Fluid
will change tiie condition called lever, or subdue and
control it under all circumstances, without regard to tho
name, it may he or ought to lie called, it should bo given
wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot be ex
pected to control all organic or local onuses, 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 means, and these sohuld bo given while
giving the “Fluid,” and in connection with it. when
occasion requires, as they will then more readily act,
producing more general elfeot, besides no unnecessary
time will then be lost. As the Fluid” alone will sub
due the fever, 1 call all else auxiliary treatment.
if tho bowels aro costive, give a cathartic (see auxili
aries) with the first dose, or soon after, aud should it
fail to operate in due time, repeat the doso; if attended
with diarrhoea, give something known to bo good for
that coiuploint, 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 the part; if
violent pain iu the head, apply cold water, ice water,
if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe
the feet in hot water; if the fever is very high, skin
dry and 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 aud aid tho medi
cine in taking effect, after which there will bo no trou
ble ; il the patient lias been reduced or is much prostra
ted, give tonics and stimulants, particularly in low
fevers, in absence of fever or wlieu indicated; also,
during convalescence, when the patient has become re
duced; if there is nausea and vomiting, that must be
allayed before auy medicine will remain on the stomach
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 has settled, give the “ Fluid” und a cathartic if
necessary; in short, treat all tho prominent symptoms
as you would under auy other circumstances, giving tho
“Fluid” at the same time as directed, ami success will
crown your efforts; indeed, yon 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 feel at a loss to know what is meant bv
cathartics, Ac., as physicians aro usually particular
about M hat is used. I have found no 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 I have referred to, via:—
Cathartics. —Articles that purge or operate on the
bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots
or barks, aud many pills, antlhMious, Ac.; anything
known to be good for such purposes.
Hcpatlcs.—Anything known to act on tho liver
particularly, portal circulation and secretions generally.
Any of the articles depended on by the different schools’
for this purpose, will answer when used iu connection
\yith the “Fluid” or while the 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 thatgivo tone or strength, such
as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. Bone
set or thoroughwort is one of the best used iu 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 the
system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is on of the best;
ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., the essences are all more
or less stimulating. These are the only classes necessa
ry in treating fevers, though many others aro generally
used, but the Negative Electric Fluid is a better •• dia
phoretic,” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and
“ sedative” than kuowu in tho materia medicts.
1 shall not tax the reader with a long list of proofs,
dsnending mainly on tho results of a trial, and will
ouly refer to one instance of success, that oti the
PackelsHip Duchess D’Orlenns.
which cannot be classed among ordinary certificates:
We, the undersigned, certify to the following, viz—
We took passage oil the packetsbip Duchess d'OrleuM,
Capt Hutton, then lying in the port of Havre. France
and bound for New Vork. She sailed on the Dth 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 the emigrants, They were all
treated by the physician in charge. Dr. N. W. Seat, with
anew remedy ofnis own, which iie calls Negative Elec
tric Fluid, with which he seemed to have entire control
over the disease, arresting it in it few hours, and curing
iu a very short time. *
During the vpyage, 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 w hat we 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 boing controlled with
so much ease, promptness and certainty, or so little
trouble to the nurse. A crowded Ship, a long passage,
small pox and fever on hoard, anil tint a death! The*
fact speaks for itself.

RECOMMENDATIONS.
Nkw OKLEANS, April 9, 1855.
Dear Sir—The public generally are fully aware of the
thousands of remedies for Diseased Lungs, under tbetltles
of Sursajiarillas, Pills, Plasters. Liniments, Ac., that are
daily brought to their notice through the newsjiapersby
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
Heal Use iu I'ulmnnary Disease.;. ]am conscious that in
so doing, l am acting most nnprofcssionally, and deroga
toril.v to the interests of Medical Science and the regular
Proctitiouers of Medicine, I refer to Woodman's Cherry
Expectorant, which is a scientific remedy that I 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.
0. O. Woodman—Dear Sir; 1 have giveu your Cherry
Expectorant a fair trial and am well pleased with its ef
fects; better than any ether article I over met witli. I
would be |ilea*ed to have yon send me half a dozen bot
tles by the bearer. Respectfully,
\Y. 51. Mason, M. 1).
This preparation lias attained a wide celebrity from
the universal success which Ims attended its use. For
coughs, colds, uml in fact, any pulmonary complaints,
this medicine, from Its peculiar jiroperticsas a dissolvent
and its soothing power to all irritations of the throat,
will probably bo preferred to any other offered to the
