Sth.—Economy f Health.—As the system is not reduced, and consequently rucked; nor is the fever subject to be followed by chronic disease. ttth.—Economy of Life.— As the cure iseil'ected before anil without reducing the patient, consequently removing, in a corresponding degree, all danger of a fatal termination. Other reasons might bo added, but these are deemed suiHcicut to satisfy all classes and persons in all condi tions of life. The above reasons gr more particularly applicable to tlie immediate treatment on tho first attai k, but will apply with equal force to cases which have been subject ed to or liuvo become reduced, corresponding of course *! the nature of the rase at the time it Is first adminis tMl Oil. As this remedy gives so prompt, effectual and perma nent relief, iu all ordinary cases, when used soon after tl.r attack, persons cult scarcely realize that they bail been really much sick, and very naturally conclude tiny were not attacked with fever, anil if so, -‘it whs trifling —it little cold, which gave alarm—it could have been nothing of consequence—it would have |>assod off with out anything—-that medicine had no effect.” The general impression on the subject of fever is such, that thoughts not unlike the above follow the cure of a common case us naturally as men think at all; and it is not until ’ do in lividual iias witnessed many eases that he ran fully .calixu the truth; and even then he may couclmle them ail very trilling cases, which would have readily yielded to any simple medicine, yet persons, though they have lieen l Inis successful in periiafis hundreds of cases, must cXjioet that there will cases occur where Micro is some organic nr local cause so great as to require particular attention, or though success.'ul in roduciug tho fever, it will again rise as the influence of tho “ Fluid” passes off, ns tint exciting cause may still exist. It is to guard against disappointment in such cases that l have given ami frequently refer to what I have called a “ synopsis.” Remarks on Fever* in General* On this subject 1 wish to be fully understood, lty the term “fevers,” I comprehend all febrile affections to which the human frame is subject, including small pox and other eruptive fevers; liut as they arise by n great variety of causes, and in quite dissimilar constitutions and habits, they of course differ considerably in their development and exhibit a variety of forms or types; yet all are distinguished by tho same general character istics—that ol undue cxcitemout in tlie circulatory and nervous systems—imincing more or less unnatural fre quency ill the pulse, sense of boat, dryness of the skin, debility, Ac. To snow that 1 e.m not wholly alone In the opinion 1 advance, 1 quote from the celebrated Prof. T. Watson, of Kiug’s College, London, whose work on tho “ l’rinci oles and Practice of Physic” is a text book ill many of our medical colleges, and consequently standard auttunity. i)n page HIM, hesays:—“We hear continually, both in ami Out of the profession, different species of fever spiv kn of. By the public, Typhus Fever, Brain Fever, Bilious Fevor, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever, Ac. Anil systematic writers are to tho full as particular: Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Uastro-Enteric, and so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, 1 am persuaded that the effect upon tho mind of all this sub-division, is had ami hurtful. It ciiooiirugus a disposition, 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 lie relied on. They run insensibly into each other, even the most dissimilar of them, and are often traceable to the same cause.” The above isu great fact, ouo 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 its hereafter directed, and you mill hr uirtl instead of any distiuctcliavaeter being devel oped, so as to be properly named by the most scientific. This assertion is no hypothesis bused on closet specula tions or visions of mind, but on experience at tlie bed side of (lie sick, ill hundreds, aye, thousands of cases (by myself and others) under a great variety of cir ciimsliinces, seasons and climutes. Bear this iu mind, and treat at once without regard to namr, and rest assured you will soon be freed from all dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers. But as cases may have be ciniiu 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 bo pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though the “ Rules” ami ‘• Synopsis” will lie amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon tho sick. Kales important to hr observed in all cases in using the Negative Electric Fluid. Ist. It should be given in three or four timeß its own quantity of water, and may be swoeteued or not at pleasure. 2d. Patients must bo free from all currents of air, (though there should always bo free ventilation in tlie sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in fluence. 3d. It must be continued whenever the fever subsides, or is evidently passing off; to be resumed when it Pugins to rise ugaiu, should such he the case under any circumstances. tth. When the fever begins to subside, patients must be left perfectly quiet; free from nil excitement; should not bo questioned as to their wants or feelings, nor attempt to converse, read or take any exercise whatever, till their own natural feelings, independent of all extra neous influences, ituluce them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation bo allowed in their hearing, In which they may fool more or less interested, but be left quiet to all intents and purposes. nth. Fluids should be allowed, while giving it ns plentifully, and as long as the patient desires and no longer; they luay consist of cold water, mucilaginous • trill.;*, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, either cold or warm, as parties may prefer or patients desire. lith. Should patients experience any oppression or faintuess whilom the lying posture, so us to occasion a ee 1 lessneMS 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 ■ picit. ginger, or some other stimulant; or the face and breast may be bathed in cold water; either of which will give immediate rolieb* TAIILE OF DOSES. For children of one your or under, from 3 to 8 drops. “ over 1 ami under 2 years, “ sto 15 “ “ “ 2 “ 5 “ “ 12 to 30 “ “ 5 “ 10 “ “ 20 to 50 “ “ “ 8 “ 15 half to a teaspoonful. All persons over fifteen considered as adults, for whom h Icuspoouful is a common dose. Old |>orsnns do not require as much as youug, or those in the prime of life; nor females, as a general rule, as much as moles. Tliers is no particular care necessary iu giving it to children—those of ten years of age frequently having taken full doses; but fur a little guide, 1 have given tlie above table, with the remark that, as a general rule, children require more than adults in proportion. By observing the above directions, the medicine will lie found agreeable ill all of its effects, the exportations of the most sanguine realized, aud many perfectly astonished. My object in being thus particular is, that the full benetlt of the mediciue may lie obtained, aud net on account of any actual necessity of such strict ob servances. . 11l 1 lons or It emit tent Fever. (live a teiuqionful of “ Fluid” (see rule Ist) once in two hours, till the fever is evidently passing off; this constitutes the whole treatment iu all simple cases of lever; with such observances as are set forth iu the •• Rules.” But should there be prominent local symp toms. or known local existing causes, they should he attended to at once, aud while giving tlie “ Fluid.” Bee Synopsis. I fin any case tlie bowels are particularly coustipated or routined, give a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the tirat portion ; they must be o[n'ued or tho fever may rise agio u. Where the fever is very high, pulse running 110 or upwards, and tho patient is not particularly susceptible Iu the Influence of medicine—not easily operated on by medicine generally—a double dose, or two teaspoonsful may he given at first with advantage, and even repeated iu two Ilnurs—if it—the pulse—has not been softened, thus shewing tho medicine has taken effect. lUthiiig tlie 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 medicine much in taking effect. Congestive Fever. Hive two teaspoonsful and repeat every two hours till tho pulse becomes more full and soft, then only a tea spoonful, to bo discontinued as the fever subside). As the bowels are generally confined, aud It is frequently very difficult to get medicine to operate in this disease, iio time should be lost to get them open, give some active cathartic with tlie “ Fluid” aud repeat as may be neoes sary till it operates; enemas (injections) may also lie used to advantage; also, mustard to the extremities, or friction (rubbing) with the bauds or flannel; also, cold applications to the head. Quinine may lie added to tlie “ Fluid” if thought advisable. See Synopsis. Nervous Fever, Typhus, Ship and Putrid or Spotted Fever. As these fevers are all of one character, differing mainly in degree, being alt 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 common treatment, while with this but a few days will be necessary at longest to establish a permanent oonvalescenoe. The treatment should be commenced—which luav immediately follow any Other without detriment—with a teaspoonful of >• Fluid” every two hours, till the pulse becomes fuller or larger In volnme, then to be continued ■o* la lU or eight hours till tke fever entirely subsides. In lmd cases, from three to live grains egoli of quinine, aud capsicum (Cayenne peppery or route tome aud stimu -1 isut (see auxiliaries) should be added to each dose. The bowels should bo kept geutly open, and small portions of some hepatic should be given occasionally, oven though the bowels should bo very loose. The patient should bo sustained by nourishing and mucilageuous drinks—such as are ill common use in such cases.— Whore the skin is very dry, sponging tlie surface as di rected iu bilious fever, will be found advantageous. Tonics should be usod during convalescence, iu all eases which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lung or Winter Fever. (live a teaspoonful of the “Fluid” every two hours, with a wine-glassful of a strong decoction of bom-set; or half the quantity may be given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say once in nix or eight hours. The boneset tea should he given warm till the violent symptoms are allayed, or the patient is relieved ; thou cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, or something of the kind, to he applied over the seat of pain; keep the bowels gently open. Variola, Varioloid, llubeolu anti Scarla tina) 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, the treatment differs hue little from that of common levers. Remember never wait to lunrii tliu “/Millie,” whether it is one or the other, or neither, as they all commence with free.,', but treat it at once; govern the fevor and there wilt be no trouble; there will ho hut little r.rujttiun even m small pox. This, to moat minds, is anew idea, and doubtless will be regarded w ith ridicule by inauy. 1 nevertheless boldly make the assertion, tiiat email pox, il treated as I direct, will he cut short; attended with blit little erup tion; little or no pitting, and that there is no necessity of its running its ordinary course, tm this I will stake not only my reputation, but a.l tiiat J hold must dear; besides, on this subject, 1 have good authority; that of Prof. Watson, previously quoted. Jle says, page 87-1: “You may abate tliu force of-the eruptive fever, and keep down, it is believed, the number of the pustules by spline purges, Ac.”. Here is tho admission that it muy lie done. I nave not only proven il mug he,, but has been done in numerous cakes that occurred on board ship. See tlie account appended. (live a teaspoonful or more, according to the urgency of tlie cose, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat tlie Fluid once ill two hours if necessary, until the feversub siiles—though one or two doses is generally sufficient; but it should he given aud repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under control. When the throat is affected, any of the ordinary gargles may be used, and the surface bathed, us thought advisable. In one case, ou the ship Duchess d’Orleans, the tongue and faucus were so much swollen that tlie patient could not swallow or speak, and ho was cured by dropping the Fluid ou his tongue, drop by drop, till ho could swallow, w hen it was given in teaspoonful doses every hour, till all alarming symptoms disappeared. Tlie swelling of the throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment in about twelve hours by llio Fluid alone.— Used to wet tlio throat frequently, it is doubtless the best gargle, in all such cases. Puerperal or Childbed Fever.; This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming malady to which tho mother is liable, will yield to the Negative Klee trie Fluid with such readiness, as to scum to be of little consequence. A single dose or two of a teaspoonful, almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need be entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should be re peated as long as tlie fover contiuues, as in other cases. The bowels of course should be attended to. In connection with this subject, I cannot refrain from making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by the ladies, will save them much pain and suffering. It is to inform them of the happy effect of the Fluid in many of their trials. Iu child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives tlie labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must lie tried to bo appreciated.— Painful menstruation will lie 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 the most so of any medicine known. Its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability and iritubility of the nervous as well as the circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and quiot tlie system so that ono can 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, 1 give under this head general directions for all cases. As the Negative Klectric Fluid will change -the couilitlon called iever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name it may bo or ought to lie 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 iu order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur iu any case, they should bo appropriate means, and these soliuld bo given w hile giving the “Fluid,” and in connection with it. when occasion requires, as they will limn more readily act, producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary time will then bo lost, As tlie •,Fluid” alone w ill sub due the fevor, 1 call all else auxiliary treatment. If tliu bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) with tlie lirst dose, or soon after, and should it fail to operate in due time, repeat tho dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something known to ho good for that complaint, though if caused by irritability, tlie “Fluid” will soon 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 in cold water, to tho part; if violent pain in tlie head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe tho feet iu hot water; if tlie fever is very high, skin dry and hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe the whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature; “tlie 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 be no trou ble; if the patient lias been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics and stimulants, particularly in low fevers, in absence of fever or when indicated; also, during convalescence, when tho patient lots become re duced ; if there is nausea and vomiting, that must be allayed before any mediciue will remain on the stomach to do any good: for this purpose 1 generally give somo 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 the “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 lie astonished at the ease 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 ttro usually particular about what is used. 1 have found uo such necessity when using the Fluid, and to be fully understood by all, i w ill name a tew of the different articles of medi cine I have referred to. viz:— Cat hart lea.—Articles that purge or operate on tho bowels, sucb as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots or barks, aud many pills, antibiiious, Ac.; anything known to be good for such purposes. Hepatic*.—Anythiug known to act on the liver particularly, portal circulation and secretions generally. Any of tlie articles depended on by tho different schools for this purpose, will answer when used iu connection with the “Fluid” or while the system is under its in fluence. And one may choose calomel—another, blue moss—the third, podophyllin—the fourth, mandrake root, and so on; each may take his choiro and be suc cessful. Tonics.—Articles that give tone or strength, such as quiuine, various harks, roots and hitter herbs, Bone set or tlioroughwort is one of the best used in fevers. Astringents.—Such as check the action of tho bowels. Laudanum and other preparations of opium are used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents, which have tho effect. Stintulnnts.—Articles that raise or excite tho system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of the best; ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., the essences arc all more or less stimulating. These lire the only classes necessa ry iu treating fevers, though many others aro generally used, but the Negative Klectric Fluid is a better “ dia phoretic,” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” aud “sedative” than known in the materia medica. I shall not tux the reader w ith a long list of proofs, depending mainly on tlie results of a trial, aud will only refer to ouo instance of success, that on the PncketnUip Duclicss D’Orlranu. which cannot be classed among ordiuary certificates: >Ve, the undersigned, certify following, viz— We took passage on the packctshlp Duchess d'Orleapi, Capt Hutton, then lying In the port of Havre. France, and bound for New York. Blie sailed on the flth of Au gust, 1851, with over a hundred souls on board, mostly emigrants- A sow days after leaving Havre, tlie small pox broke out amoug tlie emigrants, They were all treated by the physician in charge, Dr. N. W. Seat, with anew remedy of his own, which ho calls Negative Klec tric Fluid, with which he seemed to have entire control over the disease, arresting it iu a few hours, and cuiing iu a very short time. During the voyage, which lasted tlilrty-uine days, there were about eighty cases of small pox. some fever, Ac., aud not a single death. All were cured with unu sual promptness. From what we saw during said passage, we are fully convinc'd that the medieino used by Dr. Seat on the oc casion, possesses inestimable virtues. We never before heard or read of febrile affections being 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 board, and not a death! The fact speaks for Itself. Signed, K. P. Kauri, 81 Pearl street, New York. K. 0. Fa UK i, “ “ “ “ .1.
