NEGATIVE electric fluid, Prepared liy N. W. Seat, 31. U. Reason* why it should bo used instead of any other trout ment In all Febrile affections: I*l.--Economy of Time.—A* only one-seventh of the ordinary time ia required to effect a cure. Ad.—Economy of Money.—A* it costa but one dollar. 3rd.—Economy of Feeling.—As it saves the suffering of a long sickness and the consequent treat ment; tho annoyance of taking nauseating doses of medicine, their disagreeuble operation, and the pain of long confinement; but little of the fluid being nocessary, and that pleasant in its effects. Uh.—Bconomy 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. 5 tlx. —Economy of Health.—As the system is not reduced, and consequently racked; nor is the fever subject to be followed by chronic disease. ftlh.—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 be added, but these are deemed sufficient to satisfy all classes aud persons in all condi tions of lifo. The above reasons are more particularly applicable to the immediate treatment on the first attack, but will apply with equal force to cases which have been subject ed to or have become reduced, corresponding of course to tho nature of tho case at the time it is first adminis tered. As this remedy gives so prompt, effectual and perma nent relief, ill all ordinary cases, when used soon after the attack, persons can scarcely realize that they hail Imon really much sick, and very naturally conclude they wars not attacked with fover, and if so, “it was trilling —a little cold, which gave alarm—it could have been nothing of cousequeuco—it would have passed off with out anything—that medicine had nocffect.” The general impression on the subject of fever is such, that thoughts not unlike the above follow the cure of a common case as naturally as men think at all; and it is not until ’ ‘ni individual has witnessed many cases that he can fully .calfso the truth; and even then he muy conclude them all very trifling cases, which would have readily yielded to any simple medicine, yet persons, though they have been *lbus successful in perhaps Hundreds of cases, must expect that there will eases occur where, there is some organic or local cause so great as to require particular attention, or though success.ul in reducing the fever, it will again rise as the influence of the “ Fluid” passes off, as tne exciting cause may still exist. It is to guard against disappointment in sncii cases that I have given and frequently refer to what 1 have called a “synopsis.” Remarks on Fevers In General* On this subject 1 wish to be fully understood, liy the term “fevers,” I comprehend all febrile affections to which the human frame is subject, including small pox aud other eruptive fevers; hut as they arise by a great variety of causes, ami iu quite dissimilar constitutions aild habits, they of course differ considerably in their development and exhibit a variety of forms or types; yet all are distinguished by the same general character istics—that ot undue excitement in tliu circulatory and nervous systems—inducing inure or less unnatural fre quency in tho pulse, sense ol’ heat, dryness id’ the skin, debility, Ac. To show that I am not wholly alouo in the opinion X advance, I quote from tho colebrafed Prof. T. Watson, us King's College, London, whose work on the “ i’riuci utes aud Practice of Physic” is a text book in many of •mr medical colleges, and consequently standardauthorily. Ou page 831, lie says:—'“We hear continually, both in uml out of the profession, different species of fever spo ken of. By the public, Typhus Fover, Brain Fever, Bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever, Ac. And systematic writers are to the full as particular: Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Gastro-Kiiteric, and so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, I uut persuaded tlmt the effect upon the utiuil of all this sub-division, is bad and hurtful. It encourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre scribe for a disease according to its name. There is no line of genuine distinction betwoon continued fevers, that can be relied on. They run insensibly into each other, even the most dissimilar of them, and 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 hunting up ur troubling yoursolf about a “ name;” if you have fever, treat it at once us hereafter directed, and you mill be well instead of any distiuctcharacter being devel oped, so us to bo 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 tho sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands us cases (by myself and othors) under a great variety of cir cumstances, seasons and climates. Bear this in mind, aud treat at once without regard to name., and rest assured you will goon be freed from ull dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers. But as cases may have be come developed before tbo “ Fluid” is given, either by uogloet, or under some other treatment, 1 will describe as briefly as possible the propor course to be pursued in all of tlio most prominent fevers, though the “ Rules” and Y Synopsis” will lie amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon the sick. liules important to be observed in all cases in using the Negative Electric Fluid. Ist. It should be given iu three or four timos its own quantity of wutor, and may be sweetened or not at pleasure. 2d. Patients must be free from all currents of air, (though tlioro should always be free ventilation in tiie sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in fluence. 3d. It must bo continued whenover tho fever subsides, or is ovidontly passing off'; to bo resumed when it begins to rise again, should such bo the case under any circumstances. 4th. When the fever begins to subside, patients must be left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should uut be questioned as to tlieir wants or feelings, nor attempt to converse, read or tako any exercise whatever, till their own natural feelings, independent of ull oxtra neous influences, induce them to rise or speak; uor should auy conversation be allowed in their hearing, in which they may feel more or loss interested, but be left quiet to all intents and purposes. 3th. Fluids should be allowed, while giving it os plentifully, and as lung as the pationt desires and uo longer; they may consist of cold water, mucilaginous drinks, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, either cold or warm, as parties may prefer or pationts desire. fith. Should putieuts experience any oppression or faintness while in the lying posture, so as to occasion restlessness afler 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 tho face and breast maybe bathed in 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, “ sto 15 “ “ “ 2 “ 5 “ 12 to 30 “ “ “ 5 “ 10 “ 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 not require as much as young, or those in the prime of life; uor females, us a general rule, as much as males. There is uo particular care necessary iu giving it to children —those of ton years of ago frequently having taken full doses ; hut for a little guide, 1 have given tho above table, with the remark that, ns a general rule, children require more than adults in proportion. By observing tho above directions, the medicine will be found agreeable in all of its effects, the expectations of tho most sanguine realized, and many perfectly astonished. My object iu being thus particular is, that the full benefit of the medicine may be obtained, and not on account of any actual necessity of such strict ob servances. Unions or Remittent Fever. (live a teasponful of “ Fluid” (see rule Ist) once in two hours, till tlio fever is evidently passing off; this constitutes the whole treatment in nil simple cases of fever, with such observances os are set forth in the “ Rules.” But should there be prominent local symp toms, or known loesl existing onuses, they should be attended to at once, and while giving tho “Fluid.” Bee Synopsis. If in any ease the bowels are particularly constipated or confined, give n 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 iB not particularly susceptible to the influence of medicine—not easily operated on by medicine generally—a double dose, or two teaspoonsful may be given at first with advantage, and eveu repeated tu two hours—if it—the pulse—has not been softened, thus showing tho medicine has taken effect. Bathing the surface with water at an agreeable temperature, the saline wash, vinegar or spirits and water, in these difficult cases, will afford relief and aid the mediriue much iu taking effect. Congestive Fever. Give two teaspoousful aud repeat every two hours till the puls* becomes more full and soft, then only a tea spoonful, to bo discontinued as tlio fever subside*. As tiie bowels are generally confined, and it is frequently very difficult to get medicine to operate iu till* disease, uo time should be lost to get them open, give some active cathartic with the “ Fluid” and repeat as may be neces sary till it operate*; enemas (injection*) may also lio used to advantage; also, mustard to the extremities, or friction (rubbing) with the bands or flannel; also, cold applications to the head. Quiniue may be milled to the “ Fluid” If thought advisable. See Synopsis. Nervous Fever, Typhus, Ship ami 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 general great depression, there is no practical use in separating them—at least so far as my treatment is concerned. In these low fevers, when fully developed, a little patience will be required: still comparatively little, as they frequently run weeks under the roinmou treatment, while with this but a few days will be necessary at longest to establish a permanent oimvalescenee. The treatment should lie commenced—which may t A mediately follow any other without detriment—with a teaspoonful of “ Fluid” avery two hours, till the pulse becomes fuller or larger In volume, then to be continued no* In dx or eight hour* till fever entirely subsidee. In bud cases, from three to five grains each of >/at nine. ami capsicum (Cayenne pepper) or some touie anil stimu lant (see auxiliaries) should be added to each dose. ] lie bowels should be kept gently u]kjii, aud small portions of some hepatic should be given occasionally, even though the bowels should he very loose. Ihe patient should be sustained by nourishing and mucilagenous drinks—such as are iu common use in suen cases. Where the skin is very dry, sponging the surface as di rected in bilious lever, will be found advantageous. Tonics should be used during convalescence, in all cases which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, hung or Winter Fever. Given teaspoonful of the “Fluid” every two hours, with a wine-glussful of a strong decoction of boneset; or half the quantity may bo given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say once iu six or eight hours. Tho boneset tea should he given warm till the violent symptoms are allayod, or the patient is relieved; then cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, or something of tho kind, to he applied over the seat of pain; keep the bowels gently.open. Variola, Varioloid, Rubeola and Scarla tinn; or Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles, and Scarlet Fever. As all of these diseases are attended with fever, which in fact is the most prominent symptom, tlio treatment differs hue little from that of common fevers. Remember never wait to learn the “name,'’ whether it is one or the other, or neither, as they all commence with fever, but treat, it at once; govern the fever and there will be no trouble; there will lie but little, eruption even iu small p,ix. This, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubtless will be regarded with ridicule by many. I nevertheless boldly make the assertion, that smalt pox, if treated as 1 direct, will be cut short; attended with but little erup tion; littlo or no pitting, and that there is no necessity ol Its running its ordinary course. On this 1 will stake not only my reputation, but a 1 tlmt I hold most dear; besides, on this subject, I have good authority; that of l’rof. Watson, previously quoted, lie says, page 874: “ You may abate tbo force of tbe eruptive fever, and keep down, it is believed, the number of the pustules by spline purges, Ac.’’ Here is the admission tlmt it may be done. I nave not only proven it may be, but has been dune in numerous cases that occurred ou board ship. Bee the account appended. (live a teaspoonful or more, according to tho urgency of tho case, witli u dose of salts or castor oil; repeat tho Fluid once in two hours if necessary, until the lever sub sides—though one or two doses is genera ly sufficient; but it should bo given and repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under control. When the throat is affected, any of tho ordinary gargles may bo used, and the surface bathed, as thought advisable. In one case, on tho ship lfuchessd’Orleans, the tongue and faucus were so much swollen that the patient could not swallow or siieak. and he was cured by dropping tho Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow, when it was given in teaspoonful doses every hour, till till alarming symptoms disappeared. Tbe swelling of tlio throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment in uhout twelve hours by the Fluid alone.— Used to wet the throat frequently, it is doubtless the best gargle in all such coses. Puerperal or Childbed Fever. This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming malady to which tho mother is liable, will yield to the Negative Electric Fluid with such readiness, us to seem to be of little consequence. A single doso or two of a teaspoonful, almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need be entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it iu a short time, kt should be re peated us long as the fover continues, as in other cases. The bowels of course should be attended to. In connection with this subject, 1 cannot refrain from making u few general remarks, which, if regarded by the ladies, will save them much pain aud suffering, it is to inform them of the happy effect of the Fluid in many of their trials. Jn child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives the labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must be tried to be appreciated.— Painful menstruation will be relieved at once by a com mon doso aud retiring. Restlessness, nervous irritability, or a cold taken at delicate time, is easily relieved by its use; iu short, it is oue of the most convenient and effectuui remedies for many of the ills of females, if not the must so of any medicine known. Its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability and iritubility of tho nervous as well as tire circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and quiet the system so that one cun 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, 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 the name it may bo or ought to be called, it should be given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot bo ex pected to control all organic or local causes, which, when such 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 while giving tho “ Fluid,” and in connection with it, when occasion requires, us they will then more readily act, producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary time will then be lost As tho Fluid” alone will sub due the fever, I call all else auxiliary treatment. If tho bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) with tho first dose, or soon after, and should it fail to operate in due time, repeat the dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something known to he good for that complaint, though if caused by irritability, the “ F'luid” will soou 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, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe the feet in hot water; if tho 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 aDd 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 and stimulants, particularly iu low fevers, in absence of fever or when indicated; also, during convalescence, when the patient has become re duced; if there is nausea and vomiting, that must be allayed before any medicine will remain on the stomach to do any good; for this purpose I'geuere.lly give some gentle emetic to cleanse tho 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 ull tho prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstance*, giving the “ Fluid” at the sumo time as directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till you have seen, and then you will be astonished at the case with which 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 uo 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 1 have referred to, viz:— Cat kart let*.—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 goodforsuch purposes. Ilepattcs.—Anything known to act on the liver particularly, portal circulation and secretions generally. Any of the articles depended on by the different schools for this purpose, will answer when used in connection with the Fluid” or while tho system is under its in fluence. And one may choose calomel—another, blue mass—the third, podopliyllin—the fourth, mandrake root, and so on; each may take his choice and bo suc cessful. Tonics. —Articles that give tone or strength, such as quinine, various harks, roots and bitter herbs. Bone set or thorough wort is one of the best used in fevers. Astringents.— Such ns check the action of the bowels. Laudanum and other preparations of opiufn are used: also, many mixtures, not properly astringents, which have the effect. Stimulants.—Articles that raise or excite the system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one 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 are generally list'd, but the Negative Electric Fluid is a bettor “ dia phoretic,” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and “sedative” than known in the materia medico. I shall not tax the reader with a long list of proofs, depending mainly ou tho results of a trial, and will only refer to oue instance of success, that on the PackctsUip Duchess D'Orleans. which cannot be classed among ordinary certificates: We, the undersigned, certify to the following, viz— We took passage on the packet ship Duchess d’Orleaus, Capt llutton. then lying in the port of Havre, France, and bound for New York. She sailed on the 9tli of Au gust, 1851, w ith over a hundred souls ou board, mostly emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, tho small pox broke out among the emigrants, They were all treated by the physician in charge. Dr. X. W. Beat, with anew remedy of his own, which lie calls Negative Elec tric Fluid, with which he seemed to have entire control over the disease, arresting it in a few hours, and curing In 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 a 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. Seat on the oc casion. posses Les inestimable virtues. We never before heard or read of febrile aft'i>ctioiis being controlled w ith so much ease, promptness and certainty, or so little trouble to the nurse.
