M&iAti'lVß BLECTBIC fjlui d* Prepared by N. W. Seat, 51. D. Lea-on* why it should be used instead of any otlier ti f*l mi'iit in all Febrile affections : tat.— Economy of Time.—l only one-sec Mh hi the ordinary time ia required to effect a cure. •id— Economy of Money.— Ae it oat* but one • lollar. 3rd Kconomy of Keeltn*.— Aa it aavee the suffering of a long sickness and the consequent treat, ment; the annoyance of taking nauseating done* of medicine, their disagreeable operation, and the pain of long confinement; but little of the fluid being necessary, and that pleasant ill its effects. 4th. — Kconomy of Thought. —As when known, it will remove all dread and auxlety at present existing, respecting febrile affections; particularly while a dear mend Is sick. sth. — Kconomy of Healtl*. —As the system is not reduced, and consequently racked; uor is the fever subject to be followed by chronic disease. 6 th. — Kconomy of Laife. —As the cure iseffected before and without reducing tho patieut, con-equently reruoviug, In acorreapondiog degree, all danger of a fatal termination. Other reasons might be added, but these are deemed sufficient to aatisfy all clasaes and persons in all condi tions of life. Tlie above reasous are more particularly applicable to the immediate treatment on the first attack, but will apply with equal force to casus which have been subject ed to or have liecome reduced, corresponding of course •o the nature of tliecaae at the time it is first adminis tered. As this remedy gives so prompt, effectual and perma nent relief, in all ordinary cases, when used soou after the attack, |tenons can sca/cely realise that they had been really much sick, and very naturclly conclude they were not attacked with fever, and ts so, “it was trifling —a little cold, which gave alarm—it could have lieen nothing of oeusequence—it would have passed off with out anything—that medicine had noeffect.” The general impression on the subject of fever is such, that thoughts uot unlike the above follow the cure of a common case as naturally as men think at all; and it is not until I're individual has witnessed many cases that he can fully realise the truth; and even then he may conclude them aii very timing cases, which would have readily yielded to any simple medicine, yet persons, though they have been thus successful in perhaps hundred* of cases, must aspect that there will cases occur where there is some organic or local cause so great as to require particular attention, or though successiul in reducing the fever, it will again rise as the influence of the “ Fluid’’ passes off, as the exciting cause may still exist. It is to guard against disappointment in such cases that I have given and frequently refer to what 1 have called a “ synopsis.” Remarka on Ktvsrs In General* On tills subject I wish to be fully understood. Hy the Urni “fevers,” I comprehend all febrile affections to which the human frame is subject, including small pox and other eruptive fevers; but as they arise by a 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 the same general character istics—that of undue excitemunt in the 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 I am not wholly alone in the opinion I advance, 1 quote from tile cclebrafed Prof. T. Watson, of King’s College, London, whose work on the “ Priori nles and Practice of Physic” is a text book in many of .hi r medical colleges, and consequently standardauthority. On page 81)4, be says;—“We hear continually, both in and out of the profession, different species of fever spo ken of. By the public, Typhus Fever, Brain Fever, Bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, iaiw Fever, Nervous Fever, Ac. And systematic writers are to the full as particular; Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Uastro-Knteric, and so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, I am persuaded that the effect upon tho mind of all this sulMllvision, is had 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 between continued fevers, that can be relied on. They ran insensibly into each other, even tlie most dissimilar of them, and are often traceable to the same cause.” Tho above is a great fact, one worthy of remembranoe aud 1 would impress on your minds the folly of hunting up or troubling yourself about a “name,” if yon have fever, treat It at once as hereafter directed, and you o)ill be, writ instead of any distinctcharucter being devel oped, so its to be 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 of cases (by myself and others) under a great variety of cir cumstances, seasons and climates. Bear this in mind, and truut at ouce without regard to name, and rest assured you will soon be freed from all dread of linger ing ami dangerous fevers. But as cases may have be come developed before tlie “ Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under some otlier treatment, 1 will describe as briefly as possible tbe proper course to be pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though tlie “ ltules” and “ Synopsis” will be amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon tile sick. Rules important to be observed in all cates in using the Negative Electric Fluid. Ist. It should be given in three or four times its own quantity of water, and may be sweetened or not at pleasure. 2d. Patients must be free from all currents of air, (though there should always bo free ventilation in tlie sick room,) uor attempt to go about while under its in fluence. 3d. It must be continued whenever tlie fever subsides, or is evidently passing off; to be resumed when it begins to rise again, should such lie the case under any circumstances. 4th. When tho fever begins to subside, patients must be left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should uot bo questioned as to their wants or feelings, nor attempt to converse, road or take any exercise whatever, till their oum natural feelings, independent of all extra neous influences, iiuluce them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation be allowed in tiieir hearing, in which they may feel more or less interested, but be left quiet to all intents and purposes. sth. Fluids should be allowed, while giving it as plentifully, and as long us tlie patient desires and no longer; they may consist of cold water, mucilaginous drinks, iomonude, any simple decoctions, or teas, either cold or warm, as parties may prefer or patients desire. 6th. Should patiuuts experience any oppression or faintness while in tlie lying posture, so ns to occasion a restlessness after tlie fever has passed off, or enough to occasion them to speuk of it, they should have a little wine, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade with a little spirit, ginger, or some otlier stimulant; or the face amt lueast may be battled in cold water; either of which will give immediate relief. TABIsK OF BOSKS. For children of one year or under, from 3 to 8 drops. “ over I and under 2 years, “ sto 16 “ “ “ 2 “ 5 “ “ 12 to 30 “ “ b “ 10 “ “ 20 to 50 “ “ “ 8 “ 15 half to a toaspoouful. All persons over fifteen considered as adults, for whom a teaspoonful is a common dose. Old {Minions do not require us much ns young, or those in tbe prime of life; uor females, us a general rule, as much as males. There is no particular care necessary iu giving it to children —those of ten years of age frequently having taken full doses; but for a little guide, 1 have given tlie above table, with the remark that, as a general rule, children require more than adults iu proportion. By observing the above directions, the medicine will Ihi found agreeable in all of its effects, the expectations of the most sanguine realized, aud mauy perfectly astonished. My object iu being thus particular is, that the full benefit of the medicine may be obtained, and uot on account of any actual necessity of such strict ob servances. Bilious or Remittent Fever* (live a teasponful of “ Fluid” (see rule Ist) once in two hours, till the fever ia evidently passing off; this constitutes the whole treatment in all simple cases of fever, with such observances as are set forth in the “ ltules.” But should there be promiueut local symp toms, or knowu local existing causes, they should Imi attended to at once, aud while giving the “Fluid.” See Synopsis. If iu any case the bowels are particularly constipated •r confined, give a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the first portion; they must be opened or the fever may rise again. Where the tovur is very high, pulse running 110 or upwards, and the patient is not particularly susceptible to tho influence of medicine —not easily operated on by medicine generally—a double dose, or two teaspoousful may bo given at first with advantage, and even repeated iu two hours—if it—the pulse—has not been softened, thus showing tho medicine has taken effect. Ilatliing the surface with water at an agreeable temperature, tlie saline wash, vinegar or spirits and water, in these difficult cases, will sfford relief and aid the mediciue much iu taking effect. Congestive Fever* (live two tcaspoonsful and repast every two hours till the pulse becomes more full aud soft, then only a tca spoouful, to he discontinued as tlie fever subsides. As the bowels are generally confined, and it is frequently very difficult to get medicine to operute in this disease, uo time should be lost to gut them open, give some active cathartic with the “Fluid” aud repeat as may be neces sary till it operates; enemas (injections) may also be used to advantage; also, mustard to the extremities, or friction (rubbing) with the hands or flannel; also, cold applications to the head. Quinine may b added to the “ Fluid” if thought advisable. Bee By nopals. Nervous Fever, Typhus, Ship and Putrid or Spotted Fever* As these fevers are all of one character, differing tuninly in degree, being all of a low grude, the pulse •mall and wiry, with a general great depression, there is no practical nse in separating them—at least so far as my treatment is concerned. In these low fevers, when fully developed, a little patlenee will bo required; still comparatively little, as they frequently run weeks under tlie common treatment, while with this hut a few days will be necessary at loagest to establish a permanent esnvalescence. The treatment should be commenced—which may I turned lately follow any other without detriment—with a Uaspoonful of “ Fluid” every two hours, till the pulse become* fuller or larger In volume, then to he continued *t eight hour* till tbe fever eutlrely subside*. In bad cases, from three to five gruius each of quinine aud capsicum (Vuyeuuo pepper) or some tome and stiniu laut (see auxiliaries) should be added to each dose. The bowels should bo kept gently open, aud small portions of some hepatic should be given occasionally, even though the laiwels should be very louse. The patieut should be sustained by nourishing and murilagenous drinks—such as are iu common use iu such cases.— Where the skin Is very dry, sjKiiigiiig the surface as di rected iu bilious fever, will be found advantageous. Tonics should be used during ‘convalescence, in all cases which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lung or Winter Fever. (jive a teas|ssinful of tho “Fluid” ovory two hours, witli a winc-glussful of a strong decoction of boueset; or half the quantity may be given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say ouce ui six or eight hours. Tho boueset tea should lie given tnlrni till the violent symptoms urc allayed, or the patient is relieved ; then cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, or something of the kind, to i>e applied over the seat of pain; keep the bowels geutly open. Variola, Varioloid, Rubeola and Scarla tinal or Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles, and Scarlet Fever. As all of these disease.* are attended with lever, which in fact is tlis most prominent symptom, tlie treatment differs hue little from that of common fevers. Remember never wait to learn tbe “na/ne,” whether it is one or the other, or neither, as they all commence with fever, hut treat it ut once; govern tlie fever ami there will be no trouble; there will be but liule, eruption even in small pox. Tliis, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubtless will be regarded with ridicule by many. I nevertheless boldly make the assertion, that small pox, ii treated tta 1 direct, will be cut slurrl; attended with hut little erup tion; little or no pitting, and that there is no necessity of its running its ordinary course. On this 1 will stake not only my reputation, but a.i that I huld most dear; besides, on this subject, 1 have good authority; that of Prof. Watson, previously quoted, lie says, page 574: “You may abate the force of tho eruptive lever, anil keep down, it is believed, the number of the pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Here is the admission Hint it may be done. 1 nave uot only proven it may be, but Inis been douo in numerous eases that occurred on lioai and ship. See the account appended. Give a teaspoonful or more, according to the urgency of the case, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat tire Fluid ouce in two hours if necessary, until thefeversub shles—though one or two doses is genera.ly sufficient; but it should bo given and repeated sufficiently to keep tlie fever under control. When the throat is affected, any of tlie ordinary gargles may lie used, and the surface bathed, as thought advisable. In one case, on the ship Duchessd’Urleuns, llio tongue and faucus were so much swollen that the patient could not swallow or speak, and lie was cured by dropping tlie Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till lie could swallow, when it was given in teaspoonful doses every hour, till all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of tlie throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment in alsiut twelve hours by the Fluid alone.— Used to wet the throat frequently, it is doubtless the best garyle in all such cases. Puerperal or Childbed Fever. This heretofore painful, duugerous and alarming malady to which the mother is liable, will yield to the Negative Klootric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem to he of little consequence. A single dose or two of a teaspoonful, almost invariably giving entire aud per manent relief; no alarm need be entertained, us tlie Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should be re peated as long as tlie fever continues, as in other cases. The bowels of course should lie attended to. In connection with this subject, 1 cannot refrain from making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by the ladies, will save them much pain mill suffering. It is to inform them of the happy effect of tlie Fluid in many of their trials. In child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives tlie labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must lie tried to ho appreciated.— Bain fill menstruation will bo 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; iu 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 tlie whole system, removing all excitability and iritability of tlie nervous as well us the circulatory. It will not lorco sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and quiet tlie system so that ouo can sleep naturally and healthy; lienee its use in so mauy cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense the treat uieutas much as possible, 1 giveimder this head general directions for all cases. As t lie Negative Klectric Fluid will change tlie condition called lever, or subdue ami control it under all circumstances, without regard to tlie name it may ho or ought to be called, it should be given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot ihe ex pected to control all organic or local causes, which, when such exist, must be rumored iu order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any case, they should be appropriate meaiiß, and these sohnid be given while giving the “Fluid,” and iu 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 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) with tho first dose, or soou after, find should it fail to operate in due time, repeat the dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something known to be good for that complaint, though if caused by irritability, tho “ Fluid” 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 in 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 tlie lever is very high, skin dry und hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe the whole surface with water ifr'nn agreeable temperature; “the saline wash,” vim-g Wand jvater or spirits and water, either will afford great relief and aid the medi ciue in taking effect, after which there will be no trou ble; if tlie 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 tlie patient lias become re duced ; if tliero is nausea and vomiting, that must be allayed before any mediciue will remain on tlie stomach to 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 tho stomach has settled, give tho •• FTuid” and a cathartic if necessary; in short, treat all the prominent symptoms as you would under any other dreumstnuces, giving tlie “Fluid” at the same 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 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 are usually particular about what is used. I have found no such necessity when using the Fluid, and to he fully understood by all, I will name a lew of the different articles of medi cine I have referred to, viz:— CalliarticM. —Articles that purge or operate on tlie bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots or barks, and many pills, autibilious, Ac.; anything known to be good for such purposes. Ilepat lea. —Anything known to act ou tho liver particularly, portal circulation und secretions generally. Any of tlie articles depended on by tlie different schools for this ptir{H)Be, will answer when used in connection with tlie “Fluid” or while the system is under its in fluence. And one may choose calomel —another, bine mass—tlie third, podophyllin—tlie fourth, mandrake root, aud so ou; each may take his choice und be suc cessful. Tonics.—Articles that give tone or strength, such as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. Bour ses or tlmrougliwort is one of the best used in fevers. Astringent*.—Such as check the action of tlie bowels. Laudanum aud other preparations of opium are used: also, many mixtures, not properly astringents, which have tlie effect. Stimulant a.—Articles that raise or excite tho .system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of the best; ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., tlie essences are all more or less stimulating. These are tho only classes necessa ry in treating fevers, thougli many others are generally used, but tho Negative Klectric Fluid is a better “ dia phoretic,” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and “sedative” than known in tho materia tnedica. 1 shall uot tax tlie 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 Packetalilp Ductless D’Orleane. which cannot tie classed among ordinary certificates; We, the undersigned, certify to the” following, viz— We took passage on the packetship Duchess d’Orleuns, Capt llulton, then lying in tlie port of Havre, Franco, and bound for New York. She sailed on the 9th of Au gust, 1861, vrith over a hundred souls on board, mostly emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, the small pox broke out among tlie emigrants, They were all treated by the physician in charge. Dr. N. W. Seat, with anew remedy of liis own, which lie rails Negative Klec tric Fluid, with which he seemed to hnve entire control over the disease, arresting it in a few hours, and curing in u very short time. During tbe voyage, which lastod thirty-nine days, there were about eighty cases of small {mix, some fever, Ac., and not a aiugle death. All were cured with unu sual promptness. Freni what we saw during said passage, we are fully convinced that the medicine used by Dr. Beat 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 tho nurse. A crowded ship, a long passage, small pox and fever on board, and not a death! The fact speaks for itself. Signed. H. P. Filial, 84 Pearl street, New York. K. G. Final, “ “ “ “ J. A. DkNormaxdy.
