.JKGA.TIVE EXJ2CTRIO FLUID, Prepared ty N. W. Seat, M. D. Reason* why it should be used instead of any other treat uiont in ail Febrile affections : Ut.Eoonomy of Time. —As only oiuirstcttilh t Hie ordinary time is required to effect a cure. id.>-Kconomy of Money.— As It emits but uue 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 tho pain of long contlnoiuerit; but little of the fluid being necessary, a od that pleasant in its effects. 4th. — Economy of Thought. —As when known, it will remove all dread and anxiety at present existing, re-quieting febrile affections; particularly while a dear friend is sick. .Ith.—Economy of Health.—As tho system is not reduced, aud consequently racked; nor Js the fever subject to be followed by chronic disease. Olh. — Economy of Life.— As the cure Is effected before and without reducing the patient, consequently removing, in a corresponding degree, ail danger of a fatal termination.’ Other reasons might be added, but these are deemed sufficient to satisfy all classes and persons in all condi tions of life. The above reasons are more particularly applicable to the immediate treatment on the lirst attack, but will apply witli equal furce to cases which have been subject ion) or have become reduced, corresponding of course to the nature of the casu at the time it is first adminis tered. As tills remedy gives so prompt, effectual aud perma nent relief, in all ordinary cases, when used soon after Hie attack, persons cun scarcely realize that they had been really much sick, and very naturally conclude tin y wsc * not attacked with fever, and If so, “it was trilling -a little cold, which gave alurm—it could have been i.oitiing of consequence—lt would have passed off with out anything—that medicine had no effect.” The general impression on the subject of fever is such, that thoughts mit unlike tha übovg follow the cure of a common ease as naturally us men think ut all; and it Is not until •'••• individual has witnessed many eases that he can fully . eel ize tile truth; and eveu then he may conclude them all very trilling cases, which would hava readily yielded In any simple medicine, yet persons, though they huve lawn thus successful in perhaps hundreds of cases, must c*|set that there will cases occur where there is some organic or local causo ho great us to require particular attention, or though succossiul in reducing tho fever, it will again rise as the influence of the “Fluid” passes i.ll', as the exciting cause mu.y still exist. It is to guard against disappointment in sum cases that I have given anil frequently refer to what I have called a “synopsis.” Remarks on Fevers In General* Du this subject l wish to be fully understood. liy the icriu “fevers,” 1 comprehend all febrile affections to which the human frame is subject, including small pox and other eruptivu fevers; hut as they arise by a great variety of causes, and in quite dissimilar constitutions and habits, they of course differ considerably in their development aud exhibit a variety of forms or types; yet all are distinguished by the same general character istics—that ol undue excitement in tliu circulatory aud nervous systems—inducing inure or less unnatural fre quency ill the pulse, sense of heat, dryness of the skin, debility, Ac. To show that I am not wholly alone in (lie opinion 1 HdriLUue, 1 quote from the cilobrnfeii Prof. T. Watson, oi King's College, London, whose work on the •• I'rinei nles and Practice Os Physic” is a text book iu many of ~ur medical colleges, and consequently standard authority. ‘in page 834, besays:—“We hear continually, both in and out of the professiou, different species of fever spo ken of. By the public, Typhus Fever, Drain Fever, llilious Fever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever, Ac. And systematic writers are to the full as particular: Mucous Fever, Ataxic. Adynamic, Gastro-Eutoric, and so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, I am persuaded that the cll'oct upon tho mind of ull this sub-division, is had and hurtful. It encourages a dis|Hisition, already too prevalent, to pre scribe for a disease according to its name. There is no line of genuine distinction between continued fevers, that can bo relied on. They run Insensibly into each other, eveu tho most dissimilar of them, and are often traceable to tho same cause.” The above is n great fact, one worthy of remembrance aud l would imprest on your minds the fully of hunting up or troubling yoursoll about a “name;” if you have fever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and you mill be. well instead of any distinctcharacter being devel oped, boas to be proporly named by the most scientific. This assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula tions or visions of mind, but ou experience at the bed side of tlie sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands of cases (by myself and others) under a great variety of cir cumstances, seasons and climates. Dear this in mind, end treat ut once without regard to mime, aud rest assured you will soon he freed from all dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers, lint 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 ho pursued iu all of tlie most prominent fevers, though the “ llulos” and “ Synopsis” will ho amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upou the sick. Hales important to be observed in all cases in using the Negative Klr.ctric Fluid. Ist. It should be given in throe or four times its own quantity of water, and may be sweetened or not at pleasure. 2d. Patients must ho free from all currents of uir, (though there should always l>e free ventilation iu the sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in tlueuce. 3d. It must he coutiuuod whenever tlie fever subsides, or is evidently pussing off; to be resumed when it begins to rise again, should such be tlie case under any circumstances. 4th. When tlie fever begins to subside, patients must he left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should not lie questioned as to their wants or feelings, nor attempt to converse, read or tako any exercise whatever, till their own natural feelings, independent of all extra neous influences, induce, them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation he allowed in their hearing, in which they may feel more or loss interested, but be left quiet to all intents aud purposes. sth. Fluids should bo allowed, while giving it as plentifully, and as long as the patient desires aud 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. fitll. Should patients experience any oppression or faintness while iu tlie lying posture, so us to occasion a restlessness after tlie fever lias passed off, or enough to occasion them to speak of it, they should have a little wino, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade with a little spirit, ginger, or some other stiuiulaut; or the face and breast maybe bathed in cold water; either of which will give immediate relief. TABLE OK DOSES. For children of one year or uuder, from 3 to 8 drops. “ over 1 and uuder 2 years, “ sto 15 “ “ “ 2 “ 6 “ “12 to 30 “ “ 5 lO “ 2O to 50 “ “ “ 8 “ 15 half to a teaspoonful. All persons over fifteen considered as adults, for whom a teaspoonful is a common dose. Old persons do uot require as much as young, or those in the prime of life; nor females, as a general rule, ns much as males. There is uo particular care necessary iu giving it to children —thoso of tou years of age frequently having takeu full doses; but for a little guide, 1 have given Die above table, with the remark that, as a general rule, children require more than adults in proportion. lly observing the above directions, the medicine will be found agreeable iu all of its effects, the expectations of the most sanguine realized, aud many perfectly astonished. My object in being thus particular is, tliat tlie full liuuellt of tlie medicine may be obtained, and not on account of any actual necessity of such strict ob servances. Hiltons or Remittent Fever. Uive a toasponful of “ Fluid” (see rule Ist) ouce In two hours, till the fever is evidently passing off; this constitutes the whole treatment iu all simple cases of fever, with such observances as are set forth iu the “ Rules.” Dut should there be prominent local symp toms. or known local existing causes, they should be attended to at ouce, and while giving the “ Fluid.” Bee Synopsis. If in any case the bowels are particularly constipated or confined, give 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 the patient is uot particularly susceptible to tho influence of medicine —not easily operated on by medicine generally—a double dose, or two teaspoonsful may begiveu at first with advantage, and even repeated in two hours—if it—tho pulse—lias not been softened, thus showing the medicine lias taken efi'oet. bathing the surface with water at an agreeable temperature, tho saline wash, vinegar or spirits and water, iu these difficult cases, will afford relief aud aid the modiolus much in taking effect. Congestive Fever. (live two teaspoonsful and repeat every two hours till the pulse becomes more full and soft, then only a tea spoonful, to be discontinued as tlie fever subsidei. As the bowels are generally confined, and it is frequently very difficult to get medicine to operate iu tills disease, uo time should lie lost to get them open, give some active cathartic with tho “ Fluid” aud repeat as may be neces sary till it operates; enemas (injections) may also Ik used to advantage; also, mustard to the extremities, or friction (rubbing) with tlie hands or flannel; also, cold applications to the head. Quinine may be added to tlie “ Fluid” if thought advisable. Bee Synopsis. Nervous Fever, Typhus, Ship amt Putrid or Spotted Fever. As these fevers are all of one character, differing mainly in degree, being all of a low grade, the pulse small and wiry, with a geueral great depression, there is no practical use iu separating them—at least so far as my treatment Is concerned. In these low fevers, when hilly developed, a little patience will be required; still comparatively little, as they frequently run weeks under tlie common treatment, while with this but a few days will be necessary at longest to establish a permanent cesivalesccnce. The treatment should be commenced—whieh may immediately follow any other without detriment—with ateespoonrol of “ Fluid” every two hours, till the pulse become* fuller or larger In volume, tbeu to be continued no# in six or eight hours till P>e (fever entirely subsides. Iu bad cases, from three to live gratae oath ol gainin''. and capsicum I Oayen no pepper; or Home tome and st.um laut (see auxiliaries)niiouid he adiiod to cacll dose. The bowels should bo kept gcutly open, and i.mall portions of some hepatic should be giveu occasionally, even though tlie bowels should bo loose. ‘lbe patient should lie sustained by nourishing aud iiuioilagenous drinks—such as are in common use in such cases.— Where the skin is very dry, sponging the surface ns di rected in bilious fever, will bo found advantageous. Tonics should be used during couvalesceuue, in all cases whicli have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid l'licuiueuiu, Luag or Winter Fever. (iive a teaspoonful of tlie “Fluid” every two hums, with a wine-glassful of a strong decoction of bum-set; or half tho quantity may be given every hour till relieved, tlieu, at longer intervals, say onto iu six or eight hours. Thu bouesot tea should bo giveu warm till the violent symptoms are allayed, or tlie patient is relieved ; then cold; fomentations, mu,-.turd plaster, or something of tho kind, to be applied over the scat of pain; keep the bowels gently open. Variola, Varioloid, Rubeola and Scarla tina; or Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles, and Scarlet Fever. As all of these diseases are attended with fever, which in fact is the must prominent symptom, the treatment differs hue little from that of common levers. Remember never wait to learn tho “name,” whether it is one or tfce other, or neither, as they all commence with fever, hut treat it at once; govern the fever and there will he no trouble; there will be but little erupturn even in small pox. This, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubtless will bo regarded with ridicule by many. 1 nevertheless boldly make tlie assertion, that small pox, il treated us 1 direct, will be cut short; attended witii hut little erup tion; littlo or no pitting, and that there is mi necessity of its running its urdiuary course. Du this 1 will stake nut only my reputation, imt ad that 1 hold most dear; besides, ou ibis subject, 1 have good authority; that ol l’rof. Watson, previously quoted. Ho says, page hit; “ Von may abate tho force of the eruptive lover, and keep down, it is believed, tlie number oj the pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Here is the admission tliat it may be dono. 1 nave not only proven it maybe, but has been dono iu numerous cases that occurred on board ship. Bee tlie account appended. - (live a teaspoonful or more, according to the urgency of the case, with a dose of suits or castor oil; repeat the Fluid once in two hours if necessary, until the fever Sub sides—though one or two doses is generally sufficient; but it should bo giveu and repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under control. When tho throat is affected, any of the ordinary gargles may bo used, and the surface bathed, ns t bought advisable. in one case, on the ship Duchessd’Orleans, tlie tongue uiid faucus were so much swollen tliat tlie patient could not swallow or speak, and lie was cured by dropping the Fluid on liis tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow, when ii was given iu teaspoonful doses every hour, till ull alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of tlie throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment in about twelve hours by tile Fluid alone.— Used to wet tho throat frequently, it is doubtless the best gargle in all such cases. Puerperal or CDiiillicd Fever. Tiiis heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming malady to which tlie mother is liable, will yield to tho Negative Electric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem to be of little consequence. A single dose or two of a teaspoonful, almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need ho entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should be re peated as long us tlie l'-ver continues, ns in oilier eases. The bowels ol course should be attended to. iu connection with this subject, J cannot refrain from making a few general remarks, whicli, if regarded by tlie ladies, will save them much pain and suffering. It is to inform them of tho happy effect of the Fluid iu many of tlieir trials, in child-birth, its relaxing and toothing effect deprives the labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must be tried to bo appreciated.— Painful menstruation will be 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 the most convenient and effectual remedies for many of the ills of females, if not tlie most so of any metUClne known. Its effect is uniform, relaxing tlie whole system, removing ail excitability aud iritability of tlie nervous as well a-s the circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and quiet tlie system so that one can sleep naturally and healthy ; lienee its use in so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense tlie treat ment as much as possible, I give under this head general directions for all cases. As the Negative Electric Fluid will change the condition called fever, or subdue and control it under ull circumstances, without regard to tho nunui it may bo or ought to be called, it should be given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot be ex pected to control all organic or local causes, which, when such exist, must be removed in order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur iuany case, they should be appropriate means, and these soliuld be giveu while giving tlie “Fluid,” and in connection with it, when occasion requires, as they will then more readily act, producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary time will then be lost. As the -, Fluid” alone will sub due tho fever, I call all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) witli the lirst dose, or soon after, and should it fuil to operate in due time, repeat tlie dose; if attended witli diarrhoea, give something known to he 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 hitter herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet iu cold water, to the part; if violent pain iu the head, apply cold water, ico water, if convenient, or somo cooling application, and batlio tho feet iu hot water; if tlie fever is very high, skin dry uml hot, witli great suffering, sponge or bathe tlie whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature; “tlie saline wash,” viuegar and water or spirits and water, either will afford great relief and aid the medi cine in taking effect, after which there will be no trou ble ; if the patient lias been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics aud stimulants, particularly in low fevers, in absence of fever er when indicated; also, during convalescence, when tlie patient lias become re duced; if there is nausea uml vomiting, that must be allayed before any medicine will remain on tlie stomach to doauy good; for this purpose I generally give some gentle emetic to cleanse tlie stomach ; warm water, if given plentifully, will answer every purpose; when the stomach has settled, give tlie “ Fluid” and a cathartic if necessary; in short, treat all tlie prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giving tlie “Fluid” at tlie same time ns directed, and success will crowu your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till you have seen, and then you will be astonished at tho case witli whicli you can control all febrile excitement. Auxiliaries. I’artios may feel at a loss to know what is meant by cathartics, 4c., as physicians are usually particular about what is used. I have found uo such necessity when using tho Fluid, and to be fully understood by all, 1 will name a lew of tho different articles of medi cine 1 have referred to, viz : Cal hart tea.—Articles tliat purge or operate on the bowels, sueli us castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots or barks, and many pills, nntibilious, 4c.; anything knowu to be good for such purposes. Hrpattcs.— Anything known to act on tlie 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 with the “Fluid” or while the system is under its in fluence. And ouo may choose calomel—another, blue mass—the third, podophyllin—tlio fourth, mandrake root, and so on; each limy take liis choice and Ik suc cessful. Toulcs.— Articles that give tone or strength, such as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. ‘ Done set or thorougliwort is one of the best used in fevers Astringents.— Buch as check the action of the bowels. Laudanum aud other preparations of opium arc used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents, which have tho effect. Stimulants. —Articles that raise or excite the system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of the best; ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., tlie essences are all more or loss stimulating. These are the Only classes necessa ry in treating fevers, though many others are generally used, but tlie Negative Electric Fluid is a het'er “ dia phoretic,” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and “sedative” than known in the materia medica. I shall not tax thq reader with a long list of proofs depending mainly on the results of a trial. and will only refer to one instance of success, that on the Pnckctahip Duchess D’Orleans. which canuot be classed among ordinary certificates: We, tlie undersigned, certify to the following viz— Wo took passage on the paeketship Duchess d’Orleans, Capt lluttou, then lying in the port of Havre France and hound for New York. She sailed on the Uth of Am 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 ofliis own. whicli he culls Negative’ Flcc tric Fluid, with which lie seemed to have entire control over tlie disease, arresting it in a few hours, and curing in a very short time. During the voyage, which lasted thlrtv-nlue days, there were about eighty cases or small pox, some fever Ac., and uot a single death. All were cured w itli unu sual promptness. From what we saw during said passage, wo are fully convinced that the medicine used by Dr. Seat on tlie oo cation, |missesses inestimable virtues. We never before beard or read of febrile affections being controlled with so much case, promptness and certainty, or so little trouble to the nurse. A crow ded ship, a long passage, smallpox and fever on board, aud not a death! The’ fact speaks for itself. Signed, K. I*. Fabri, 84 Pearl street, New York. K. ti. Fabri. “ “ “ “ J. A. DeNormandv.
