aNTEGATIVE ELECTJRIC FLUID, Prepared by N. W. Seat, M. D. ■reasons why it should be used instead of any other treat ment in all Febrile uiTections: Ut.nEconomy of Tline< —As only one-sevent’ and the ordinary time is required to effect a cure. ltd.— Economy of .Honey. —As it costs but one dollar. 3rd. — Economy of Keeling.— As it saves the suffering of long sickness and the consequent treat ment; the annoyance of taking nauseating doses of medicine, their disagreeable operation, and tho pain of long conlluouiont; but little of the fluid being necessary, and that pleasant in its effects. 4th. — . Economy of Thought. —As when known, it will remove all dread and*anxiety at present existing, respecting febrile affections; particularly while a dear friond is sick. litll. — Economy of Health. —As the system is not reduced, and consequently racked; nor is tho fever rulyefft to be followed by chronic disease. 6th. — Economy of Life. —As the cure is effected before and without reducing tho patient, consequently removing, in a corresponding degree, nil 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 ar ■ 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 liavu become reduced, corresponding of course ‘si the nature of the ease at tho time it is lirst adminis tered. As this remedy gives so prompt, effectual and perma nent relief, iu all ordinary cases, when used soon after the attack, persons cun scarcely realize that they had been really much Bick, and very naturally conclude th y wers not attacked with fever, and if so, “It was trifling -—a little cold, which gave alarm —it could have been nothing of consequence—it would have passed off with out anything—that medicine had no effect.” The general impression on the subject of fever is sueh, that thoughts not unlike tho above follow the cure of a common ease as naturally as men think nt all; mid it is not until ; he imp viiliml has witnessed many eases that he can fully .ealiae the truth; and even then he may conclude them all very trifling cases, which would have readily yielded to uuy simpio medicine, yet persons, th'ough they lmvo been til its successful in perhaps hundreds of eases, must expect that there wili eases 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 us tho influence of the “ Fluid” passes off, os the exciting causo may still exist. It is to guarif against disappointment in suen cases that X have given and frequently refer to what 1 have culled a “synopsis.” Remarks on Fevers In General* On this sulijoct I wisli to he fully Understood. Jly the term “levers,” 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 iu 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 liy I lie same general character istics—that ol online excitement in the circulatory and nervous systems—inducing more or less unnatural fre quency in tile pulse, sense of heat, dryness of the skill, debility, Ac. To show Unit I am not wholly alone iu the opinion I advance, 1 quote from tile celehrafed Prof. ‘l'. Watson, ol King's College, Loudon, whose work on the “ Princi ples anil Practice of Physic” is a text book in many of our medical colleges, and consequently standard authority. Uu page 834, he says : —“We hear Continually, both in and out of tlie profession, different species of fever spo ken of. Ily tlio public, Typhus Fever, Brain Fever, bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever, Ac. And systematic w riters are to the full as particular: Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Austro-Knteric, and so forth. Now, admitting that fever sliows itself under various forms, l am persuaded that the effect upon the mind of ull 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 between continued fevers, that can be relied on. They run insensibly into each other, oven the most dissimilar of them, ami are often traceable to the same cause.” Tho above is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance mid I would imprest on your minds the tolly of hunting up or troubling yourself about a “name;” if you have fever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, anil you unit be well instead of any distinctcliaraoter 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 the bed side of tlie sick, iu hundreds, uye, thousands of cases (by myself and others) under a greut variety of cir cumstances, seasons and climates. Bear this in mind, and Irent at onco without regard to name, and rest assured you will soon bo freed from all dread of linger ing ami dangerous fevers. But as cases may have be come developed before the “ Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under some other treatment, 1 will describe as bristly as possible tlie proper course to be pursued iu all of tlie most prominent fevers, though tlie “ Kules” and “ Synopsis” will l>o amply sufficient for nil those accustomed to nttouduuce upon tho sick. Rales important to be observed in all cases in using the. Negative Klectric Fluid. Ist. It should ho given ia throe or four times its own quantity of water, and may be sweetened or not at pleasure. ‘_’d. Patients must bo free from ull currents of air, (Though there should always be free ventilation iu the sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in ti lienee. 3d. It must bo continued whenever tlie fever subsides, or is evidently passing off; to bo resumed when it begins to rise again, should such lie the case under any circumstances. 4th. When tlie fever begins to snbsidu, patients must lie left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should not lie 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, induce them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation he allowed iu their hearing, iu which they may feel more or less interested, but bo left quiet to all intents and purposes. sth. Fluids should be allowed, while giving it as plentifully, and as long as the patient desires and 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. titli. Should patients experience any oppression or faintness wliilo in tlie 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 wine, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade with a little spirit, ginger, or some other stimulant; or tlie face and bivast maybe bathed in cold water; either of which will give immediate relief. TABLE OF DOSES.- r children of one year or under, from 3 to 8 drops. “ over 1 and under 2 years, “ 6to 15 “ n “ 3 “ 5 “ “ iff to 30 “ “ 5 “ 10 “ “ 20 to 50 “ “ “ 8 “ 15 half to a teaspoonl'ul. All persons over lifteen considered as adults, for whom a tsaspoonful is a common dose. Old persons do not require as much as young, or those in tlie prime of life; nor females, as a general rule, as much as males. There is no particular care nocessary iu giving it to children —those of ten years of age frequently having taken full doses; hut for a little guide, 1 have given tlie above table, witli tlie remark that, as a general rule, children require more than adults in proportion. Ily observing the above directions, the medicftie will be round agreeable in all of itseffecte, the expectations of the most sanguine realized, mid many perfectly astonished. My object hi 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. Uilious or Remittent Fever. (live a teaspouful of “ Fluid'’ (see rule Ist) once in two hours, till tlie 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 “ Kules.” Hut should there be prominent local symp toms, or known local existing causes, they should lie attended to at once, and while giving the “ Fluid.” See Synopsis. If iu auy ease the bowels are particularly constipated or confined, give a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with tlie first iiortion ; they must be opened or tlie fever may rise again. Where the fever is very high, pulse running 110 or upwards, and the patient is not particularly susceptible to tlie influence of medicine—not easily operated on by medicine generally—a double dose, or two teaspoonsful may be given at lirst with advantage, and even repeated In two hours —if it—the pulse—lias not been softened, ttine showing tlie medicine lias taken effect. nothing the surface with water at an agreeable temperature, the saline wash, vinegar or spirits and water, in these difficult cases, will afford relief atid aid tlie medicine 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 spooufui, to be discontinued ns tlie fever subsides. As the bowels are generally confined, ami it is frequently very difficult to get medicine to operate in tills disease, no time should bo 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 tlie head. Quinine may lie add off to tlie “ Fluid” if thought advisable. See Synopsis. Nervous Fever, Typhus, Ship anil Putrid or Spotted Fever. As these fevers are all of one character, differing mainly in degree, being all of a low grade, the pulse siuAll and wiry, With a general great depression, there is no practical use in separating them—at least so far us 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 tlie common treatment, while with this but a few days will be necesaary nt longest to establish a permanent convalescence. The treatment should be commenced—whieh may immediately follow any other without detriment—with s teaapoonfhl of “ Fluid” every two hours, till tlie pulse becomes hiller or larger in volnme, then to be continued , gee In sin or eight hours till tfe fever eutirely subsides. In bad cases, from three to five grains each of quinine and capsicum (Cayenne pepper) or some tonic and stimu lant (see auxiliaries) should be added to each dose. Th . bowels should be kept gently open, and small |s>rtione of some hepatic should be given occasionally, oven 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 tlie skin is very dry, sponging the surface as di rected iu bilious fever, will be found advantageous. Tonics should be used during convalescence, iu all cases which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumunia, Lung or Winter Fever. (live a tcuspoonful of tho “ Fluid” every two hours, with a wine-glassful of a strong decoction of boneset; or half the quantity may he given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say once in six or eight hours. Tho boneset lea should be given warm till the violent symptoms ore allayed, or the patient is relieved; then cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, or something of the kind, to he applied over the seat of pain; keep the bowels gently open. Variola, Varioloid, Rubeola and Scarla tina; or Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles, and Scarlet Fever. As ull of these diseases are attended with lever, which in fact is tlie most prominent symptom, the treatment differs hue little from tint 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 und there will he no trouble; there will be but little eruption oven in small pox. This, to most minds, is u new idea, and doubtless will be regarded with ridicule by many. 1 nevertheless boldly make tlie assertion, that small pox, if treated as ] direct, will be, cut short; attended with hut little erujs lion; little or no pitting, and that there is no necessity of its running its ordinary course. On this I will stake not only my reputation, lint ail that I hold most dear; besides, on this subject, 1 have good authority; that of I’rof. Watson, previously quoted. He says, page 874: “ Von may abate tlie force of tlie eruptive fever, and keep down, it is believed, the number of the pustuks by spline purges, Ac.” Here is the admission that it may be done, i nave not only proven it maybe, but has been done in numerous cases tlmt occurred on board ship. See tlie account appended. Give a teaspoonful or more, according to the urgency of the ease, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat tlie Fluid once iu two hours il necessary, until the feversub sides—though one or two doses is generally sufficient; but it should bo given and repeated sufficiently to keep tlie lever under control. When tlie throat is affected, any of tlie ordinary gargles may be used, and the surface bathed, ns thought advisable. I u one case, on tlie ship Duchess d'Orleaus, tlie tongue and Caucus were so much swollen that the patient could not swallow or speak, and lie was cured by dropping the Fluid nu his tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow, when it was given iu teaspoonful doses every hour, till all alarming symptoms disappeared. Tlie swelling of tlie tliroatwas reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment in about twelve hours by tlie Fluid alone.— Used to wet tho throat frequently, it is doubtless tlie 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 ouch readiness, as to seem to he of little consequence. A single dose or two of a teaspoonl'ul, almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need bo entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should he re peated as long as tlie fever continues, as in other cases. Tins bow els 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 tlie happy effect of tlie Fluid in many of their trials. Iu child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives the labor of much of its paius hjul difficulties; it must lie tried to be appreciated.— Painful menstruation will be relieved at ouce by a com mon dose ami retiring. Restlessness, nervous irritability, or a cold taken at a delicate time, is easily relieved by its use; in short, it is one of tlie most convenient and effectual remedies lor 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 ami iritability of tlie nervous as well as the circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and quiet t-lie system so that one can sleep naturally and healthy; hence its use in so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense tlie treat ment as much as possible, 1 give under this head general directions for ail eases. As the Negative Electric Fluid will change tlie condition called fever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name, it may be or ought to lie called, it should be given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot ho 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 lie appropriate means, and these soliuld be given wliilo giving the “Fluid,” and in connection witli it, when occasion requires, us they will then more readily act, producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary time will then be lust. As the Fluid” alone will sub due tlie fever, 1 call ull clso auxiliary treatment. If tlie 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 the dose; if attended witli diarrhoea, give something known to be 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 latter herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet iu cold water, to tho part; if violent pain iu tho head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe tlie feet in hot water; if the fever is very High, skin dry and hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe tho 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 tho medi cine 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, iu absence of fever or when indicated; also, during convalescence, when tlie patient lias become re duced; if there is nausea and vomiting, that must be allayed before any medicine will remain on tho 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 the stomach has settled, give the “ Fluid” and a cathartic if necessary; iu short, treat all tlie prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giving the “Fluid” at the samo time as directed, ami success will crown your efforts; iudeod, 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. 1 have found ho sueh necessity when using the Fluid, and to be fully understood by all, I will name a tew of the different articles of medi cine I have referred to, viz:— Cat liarttca. —Articles tlmt purge or operate on the bowels, smell as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots or barks, and many pills, untibilious, Ac.; anything known to lie good for such purposes. Hepatic*. —Anything known to net 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 wliilo tho system is under its in fluence. And oue may choose calomel—another, blue mass—the third, podophyiiin—tlie fourth, mandrake root, anil so on; each may take liis choice and be suc cessful. Tonics. —Articles that give tone or strength, such as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. Rone sot or thoroughwort is one of the liest used in lovers. Astringent*.— Such us check the action of tlie bowels. Laudanum and other preparations of opium 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., tlie essences are all more or less stimulating. These are tlie only classes necessa ry in treating fevers, though ninny others are generally used, but the Negative Electric Fluid is a better “dia phoretic.” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” und “sedative” than known in the materia medica. I shall not tax tlie reader with a long list of proofs, depending mainly on tho results of a trial, and will only refer to one instance of success, that on tlie Packetahlp Duchess D'Orleaus. which cannot be classed among ordinary certificates: We, tlie undersigned, certify to the following, viz— We took passage on the packetsliip Duchess d’Orleaus, Capt Hutton, then lying iu tlie port of Havre, France, and bound for New York. She sailed on the 9th of Au gust, 1851, witii over a hundred souls on board, mostly emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, tlie small pox broke out among the emigrants, They were all treated by the pliysicianjn charge,Dr. N. W. Scut with anew remedy of his owrffwhich he calls Negative Elec tric Fluid, with which lie seemed to lmvo entire control over the disease, arresting it in a few hours, und curing in a very short time. ** During the voyage, which lasted tliirty-nine 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 wo saw during said passage, we are fully convinced that the medicine used by Dr. Seat on the oc casion, possesses inestimable virtues. M'e 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, email pox and fever on board, and not a death! The fact speaks for itself. Signed, K. P. Fabri, 84 I’earl street. New York. E. 0. Fa hr I. “ “ “ A.

PEMBERTON & CO., HAVE received tlie appointment from the proprietor for tlie sole agency of Woodman’s Cherry Expectorant, tlie medicine that has created such an excitement at the North among the Physicians, and has been pronounced by all who have used it as being far superior to any Clierry Pectoral. Woodman’s Cherry Expectorant con tains the active medical qualities of tlie Yellow Jesamine, tlie pure decoction of Wild Cherry liark, aud many other valuable ingredients that render it far better than auy other Cough Medicine iu this country. RECOMMENDATIONS. New Orleans, April 9, 1855. Dear Sir—The public generally are fully aware of tlie thousands of remedies for Diseased Lungs, under the titles of Sarsaparillas. Pills, Plasters, Liniments, Ac., that are daily brought to their notice through the newspapers by way of advertisements. My object in writing this note for publication, is to induce tlie public, or at least those who are afflicted, to use one that contains articles of Real Use iu Pulmonary Diseases. lam conscious that iu so doing, I am acting most tin professionally, and derogo torily to the interests of Medical Science and the regular Practitioners of Medicine. I refer to Woodman’s Cherry Expectorant, which is a scientific remedy that 1 have used witli more success than any of tlie usual prescrip tions used by Physicians. J. M. Maitland, M. D. Gallatin, Miss., May 1, 1855. 0. O. Woodman—Dear Sir; I have given your Cherry Expectorant a fair trial and am well pleased with its ef fects; better than any other article I ever met with. I would be pleased to have you send me half a dozen bot tles by tlie bearer. Respectfully, W. M. Mason, M. D. This preparation has attained a wide celebrity from tlie universal success which lias attended its use. For coughs, colds, and in fact, any pulmonary complaints, tliis medicine, from its peculiar properties as a dissolvent and its soothing power to all irritations of the throat, will probably be preferred to any other offered to the public. As mi appetizer, or dyspeptic remedy, it will also lie found excellent, its natural aud genial warmth keeping tlie digestive powers iu proper tone. Remember that this is tlie only Cough Medicine that lias stood tlie test of tlie medical fraternity. It is sanc tioned by. approved of, and recommended by tlie leading Physicians of New York city.
