‘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.

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.
