N ELECTRIC FLUID, Prepared by N, W. Seat, M. D. I. ramus why it should be used instead of any other treat* I mont in all Febrile affections: | t,—Ecunomy of Time. —As only one-seventh .3 the ordinary time is required to effect a cure. •4<t •■Ueoilomy of Money.— As it c ats but one lollar. 3rd. — Ucottomy of Peeling.— As it saves the sintering of a long sickness and the consequent treat ment; the annoyance of taking nauseating doses of inedioino, their disagreeable operation, and the pain of long oonttncuient; but little of the fluid being necessary, and that pleasant in its effects. 4th. — Kconomy of Thought. —As when knuwn, it will remove all dread and auxlety at present existing, respecting febrile affections; particularly while a dear mend is sick. 9 th.—Kconomy of Health.—As the system is not reduced, and consequently racked; nor is the fever subject to be followed by chronic disease. 6 th.—Economy of Life.—As the cure is effected before and without reducing the patient, consequently removing, in a corresponding dcgTce, all danger of a fatal termination. Utlier reasons might be added, but these are deemed sufficient to satisfy all classes and | Mintons in all condi tions of life. 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 the nature of the case at the time it is lirst adminis tered. As tiiis remedy gives so prompt, effectual and pornm uent relief, In all ordinary cases, when used soon after tile attack, psrson! can scurcely realize that they hud been realty much sick, and very naturally conclude they weiM not attacked with fever, and if so, “it was trifling —a little cold, whicli gave alarm—it could have been nothing of caneequence—it would have |ui*sud off with out anything—that moiliclne had noeffect.’’ 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 us men think at all; and it is not until *'i individual li&s witnessed many cases tliut lie can fully .ealize the truth; aud even then he may conclude them all very trifling casos, which would hare readily yielded to auy simple medicine, yet persons, though they have been thus successful in perhaps hundreds of cases, must expect that there will coses occur where there is some •rgauic or local cnUNe so great as to require particular attention, or though success; ul in reducing the fever, It will again rise os the influence of the “Fluid” passes off, as tlie exciting cause may still exist. It is to guard against disiippoiutmeut m suen cases that I have given anil frequently refer to what I have called a “ synopsis.” Itemarlu on Feveri In General* On this subject T wish to be fully understood. Ily tlie term “fevers,” I comprehend all febrile affections to which the humau frame is subject, including small pox aud other eruptive fevors; but as they arise by a great variety of causox, 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 ol undue excitement 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, I quote from the celebrated I’rof. T. Watson, us King’s College, London, whose work on the “ I’rinci olss aud l’ractice of Physic” is a text book in many of our medical colleges, and consequently standant authority. On page 831, he says:—“We hear continually, liotli in and out of tlie profession, different species of fever spo ken of. By the public, Typhus Fever, Brain Fever, Bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, low Fever, Nervous Fever, Ac. Aud systematic writers are tu the full as particular: Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Gastro-Knterie, and so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forma, f am persuaded that tlie effect upon the mind of all this sub-division, is bad and hurtful. It euoourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre scribe for a disease according to its name. Tliero is line of genuine distinction between 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.” The above Is it great fact, one worthy of remembrance and l would imprest on your minds the folly of hunting up or troubling youiself about a “name;” if you have fever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and you wiU be. well instead of any distinctcharacter being devel oped, so ns 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 tlie bed side of the sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands of cases (by myself uud others) under a great variety of cir cumstances, season! and climates. Bear this in mind, uud treat at once without regard to name, and rest assured yon will soon bo freed from all dread of linger ing aud 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 descrilw as briefly as possible the proper courso to be pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though the “ Rules” ami “ Synopsis” will be amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon the sick. llules 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 quautity of water, and may be sweetened or not at pleasure. id. Patients must be 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 whenevor the 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 the fever begins to subside, patients must bo left jierfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should not be questioned as to their wants or foelings, nor attempt to converse, read or take any exercise whatever, till their own natural feelings, independent of all extra neous influences, itiduce them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation be allowed in their hearing, in which they may feel more or loss interested, but be loft quiet to all intouts und purposes. 6th. Fluids should be allowed, while giving it as plentifully, und as long as the patient desires and no longer; they may consist of cold water, mucilnginous drinks, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, either cold or warm, as parties may prefer or patients desire. flth. Should patients experience any oppression or faintness while in the lying posture, so as to occasion a restlessness after tlie fever has passed off, or enough to occasion them to speak of It, they should have a little wiuo, 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 3 to 8 drops. “ over 1 uud under 2 years, “ sto 15 “ “ ..go 5 .< l2 to 30 “ “ “5 “ 10 “ 2O to 60 “ “ “ 8 “ 15 half to a teaspoonful. All pursous over flfteou considered as adults, for whom a leuspoonful is a conimou 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 males. There is no particular care nocessary in giving it to children—those of ten years of age frequently having taken frill doses; bat for a little guide, I have given the above table, with the remark that, as a general rule, children require more thau adults in proportion. By observing tlie above directions, the medicine will be found agreeable in all of its effects, the expectations of tlie most sanguine realized, aud many perfectly astonished. My object in being thus particular is, that tlie full beueflt of the medicine may be obtained, uud not on accouutof any actual necessity of such strict ob servances. Bilious or Remittent Fever. (Jive a tcasponful of “Fluid” (see rule Ist) once in two hours, till the fever is evidently passing off; this constitutes the whole treatment in all simple cases of fever, with such observances as are set forth in tlie “ Rules.” But should there he prominent local symp toms, or known local existing causes, they should be attended to at once, and while giving the “ Fluid.” See Synopsis. If in any case the bowels are particularly constipated or confined, give a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the first portion; they must be o|>enrd er tlie fever may rise again. Where the fever is very high, pulse ruuning 110 or upwards, and the patient is not particularly susceptible to the influence of medlciue—not easily operated on by medicine generally—a double dose, or two teaspoonsful may be given at first with advantage, and even repented in two hours—if it—the pulse—has not been softened, thus showing the medicine lias 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 tlie medicine much in taking effect. Congestive Fever. Give two teaspoonsful aud repeat every two hours till the pulse becomes more full and soft, then only a tea spoonful, to bo discontinued us the fever subside). As tlie bowels are generally confined, and It is frequently very difficult to get medicine to operate In this disease, no time should be 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 be used to advantage; also, mustard to the extremities, or friction (rubbing) with the hands or flannel; also, cold applications to tho head. Quinine may be added to the “ Fluid” if thought advisable. See Synopsis. Nervous Fever. Typhus. Ship end Putrid or Spotted Fever. As these fevers are ail 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 nse in separating them—at least so far ns 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 hut a few days will ba accessary at longest to *Matdii>h a permanent canvalescencs. The treatment should be commenced—whish may immediately follow any other without detriment—with s tsespoesful of “Fluid” every two hours, till the pulse beeoaee falter or larger in volume, then to be continued •te in sixer eight hours till the fever eutlrely subsides. In bad cases, from three to five grains each of quinine aud capsicum ;Cayenne pepper) or some tonic and stimu lant (see auxiliaries) should be added to each dose. The bowels should be kept gently open, and small portions of Some hepatic should Ik- given occasionally, even though tlie bowels should be very loose. The patient should be sustained by nourishing and mucilagenous drinks—such as are in common use in such cases.— Where the skin is very dry, sponging tho surface us 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. Give a teaspoonful of the “ Fluid” evory two hours, with a wine-giasslul of a strong decoction of boneset; or half the quantity may be given every hour till relieved,, then, at longer intervals, say once iu six or eight hoars. The boneset tea should be given warm till the violent symptoms are allayed, or the patient is relieved; then cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, or something of the kind, to be applied over the seat of pain; keep tlie bowels gently open. Variola, Varioloid, Rubeola and Hcarla tina; or fima.ll Pox, Varioloid, Measles, and Scarlet Fever. As nil of these discloses are attended witli fever, which in fact is the most prominent symptom, the treatment differs hue little from that of common fevers. Remember never wait to learn tlie “name,” whether it is one or the other, or neither, as they all commence with fever, but treat it at once; govern the fever uud there will be no trouble; there will b v but little eruption even in small pox. This, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubtless 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 tion ; little or no pitting, and tiiat there is no necessity of its running its ordinary course. On this 1 will stake not only my reputution, but ad that I hold most dear; besides, on this subject, 1 have good authority; that of Prof. Watson, previously quoted. lie says, page 874: “You may abate 100 force of tlie eruptive lever, and keep down, it is believed, tlie number oj the pustules by spline purg"S, Ac.” Here is tho admission that it may be done. I nave not only proven it may be, but has been done in numerous cases that occurred on board ship. Moo tlie account appended. (live a teaspoonfiil or more, acconling to the urgency of tlie case, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat tho Fluid once in two hours if necessary, until the feversub sidos—though one or two doses is genera ly sufficient; Imt It should he given and repented sufficiently to keep the fever under control. When tlie throat is alfocted, any of tlie ordinary gargles may lie used, and the surfticc bathed, as thought advisable. In one case, on tlie ship Duchess d’Orlcans, the tongue and faucus 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 lie could swallow, when it was given iu teaspoouful doses every hour, till nil alarming symptoms disappeared. Tlie swelling of tlie throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment in about twelve hours by tlie Fluid alone.— Used to wet the throat frequently, it is doubtless tbe best gargle in all such cases. Puerperal or Childbed Fever.. This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming malady to which the mother is liable, will yield to the Negative Electric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem to be of littlo consequence. A single doso or two of a tcaspooiilul. almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need be entertained, as tbe Fluid will arrest it iu a short time. It should he re peated as long as the fever continues, as iu other cases. The Ihiwcls of course should tie attended to. In connection with this subject, I caunot refrain front making a few general remarks, which, if regarded by the tallies, will save them much pain and 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 the lalsir of much of its pains and difficulties; it must lie tried to bo appreciated.— Painful menstruation will bo relieved at once by a com mon dose andretiriug. 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 tlie ills of females, if not the most so of any medicine known. Its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability and iritahility of the nervous us well as the circulatory, it will not force sloop like opiates, but it will sooth aud quiet tlie system so that one cun sleep naturally and healthy; lienee its use in so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense tlie treat ment as much us possible, I give under this head general directions for all cases. As the Negative Electric Fluid will change the condition called lever, or subdue and control it under nil circumstances, without regard to the name it may he or ought to bo called, it should be given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cunnot 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 iu any case, they should be appropriate means, and these sohuld be given whilo giving the “ Fluid,” aud in connection with it, when occasion requires, ns they will then more readily act, producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary time will then be lost. As the ‘,Fluid” alone will sub duo the fever, 1 call all else auxiliary treatment. if the bowels are costive, give a cathar tic (see auxili aries) with the first dose, or soon after, and should it fail to operate in due tirno, repeat the dose; if attended with diarrhoea, give something known to be good for that complaint, though if caused by irritability, tbe “ Fluid” will soon relieve that condition; if severe local pain or inflammation, apply some stimulating liniment, u mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of bitter herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet in cold water, to tlie part; if violent pain in tho head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling upplicAtion, und bathe the feet in hot water; if the fever is very high, skin dry aud hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe the whole surface with water at an agreeable teuiporature; “the saline wash,”, vinegar aud 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 tho patient lias been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics and stimulants, particularly iu low fuvers, iu absence of fever or when indicated; also, during convalescence, when the patient has become re duced; if there is nausea uud vomiting, tliut must be allayed before any medicine will remain on tho stomach to do any good; for this purpose 1 generally give some gentle emetic to cleanse tlie stomach; warm water, if given plentifully, will answer every purpose; when tlie stomach lias Bottled, give tlie “ Fluid” aud a cathartic if necessary ; in short, treat all tlie prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giving the “ Fluid” at the same time as directed, aud success will orown 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 uo such necessity when using the Fluid, and to be fully understood by all, I will name a tow of the different articles of medi cine I have referred to, viz:— Cathartic*.—Articles that purge or operate on the bowels, sucli as castor oil, salts, senna, auy of the roots or barks, and many pills, autibilious, Ac.; anything known to be good for such purposes. Hepatic*.— Anything known to act on the liver particularly, portal circulation aud secretions generally. Any of the articles depended on by tho different schools for this purpose, will answer when used in connection with the “ Fluid” or while the system is under its in fluence. And one may choose calomel—another, blue mass—tlie third, podophyllin—tlie fourth, mandrake root, and so on; each may take his choice aud be suc cessful. Toulca. —Articles that give tone or strength, such as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. Bone set or thoroughwert is one of tbe best used in fevers. Astringents.—Such as check the action of the bowels. Laudunum aud other preparations of opium are used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents, which have the effect. Stimulant*.—Articles that raise or excite tlie system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of the best; ginger, spirits, hartßhoru, Ac., tlie essences are ail more or less stimulating. These are the only classes necessa ry iu treating fevers, though many others are generally used, but the Negative Electric Fluid is a better “dia phoretic, •’ “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and “sedative” thau known in the materia medica. I shall not tax the reader with a long list of proofs, depending mainly on the results of a trial, aud will only refer to one instance of success, that on the Packetshlp Duchess D'Orle&ns. which cannot be class-"d among ordinary certificates: We, the undersigned, certify to tlie following, viz We took passage on the packetship Duchess d’Orleans, Capt Hutton, then lying in the port of Havre, France, and bound for New York. She sailed on the flth 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 tho emigrants, They were all treated by tlie physician in charge. Dr. N. W. Seat, with a new remedy of his own, which Tie calls Negative Elec tric Fluid, with which he seemed to liavo entire control over tlie disease, arresting it in a few hours, and curing in a very short time. During tits 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. Krem what we saw during said passage, we are fully convinced that the medicine used by Dr. Seat on the oc casion, possesses inestimable virtues. Wo never la-fore heard or read of febrile affections being controlled witli so much ease, promptness and csrtainty, or so little trouble to the nurse.
