ELECTRIC FLUID, Prepared by N. W. Seat, M. D. iiutvini why it should bo used instead of any other treat ment in all Febrile affections: lt—ficonomy of Time.—As only one-seventh us the ordinary time is required to effect a cure. id.-Ktonorav of Money.—As it cost* but one dollar. 3rd.—Kconoiny of Feeling—As it saves the suffering of a long sickness aud the consequent treat ment; the aunoyauce of taking nauseating doses of medicine, their disagreeable operation, and the pain of long confinement; but little of the fluid being necessary, and that pleasant In its effects. 4th.— Kconoiny of Thought.— As when known, It will roraove all dread and anxiety at present existing, respecting febrile affections; particularly while a dear friend is sick. ®th.—Economy of Health.—As the system is not reduced, and consequently racked; nor is the fever subject to bo followed by chronic disease. Oth.—Economy of Life.—As the cure is effected before and without reducing the patient, consequently removing, in a corresponding degroe, 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 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 *.o tile nature of the case at tile time it is first adminis tered. As this remedy gives so promp', effectual and perma nent relief, in all ordinary cases, when used soon after the attack, persons can scarcely realize that they had been really much sick, and very naturally conclude they were not attacked with fever, and if so, “it was trilling —a little cold, which gave alarm—it could have been nothing of oensequeuce—it would have passed off with out anything—that medicine 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 as men think at all; and it is not until the individual has witnessed many cases that lie can fully .valise the truth; aud even then lie may conclude them all very trifling cases, which would have readily yielded to any simple medicine, yet persons, though they iiave been llins successful in perhups hundreds of rases, must expect that there wilt cases occur where there is Home organic or local cause so groat as to require particular attention, or though success uI in reducing the fever, it will ugaiu rise as the influence us the ‘•Fluid” passes off, as the e.'.citiug cause may still exist, it is to guard against disappointment in such cases that X liave given and frequently refer to wluit 1 liave called a•• synopsis.” Remarks on Fevers In General* On this subject X wish to be fully understood. By the term “fevers,” I comprehend all febrile affections to which the human frame is subject, including small pox and other eruptive fovers; hut as they arise by a great variety of causes, and in quite dissimilar constitutions an l habits, they of course differ cousiderably in their development and exhibit a variety of forms or types; yet all are distinguished by the same general character istics—Unit u! 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 celehrafed Prof. T. Watson, of King’s College, London, whose work on the “ Princi pies and Practice of Physio” Is a text hook in many of our medical colleges, and consequently standanlauthority. On page 884, he says:—” Wo hear continually, both in and out of the profession, different species of fever spo ken of. Uy the public, Typhus Fever, Drain Fever, bilious Fever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever, Ac. Aud systematic writers are to the full as particular: Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, (lastro-Knteric, and so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, I am persuaded that tile effect upon the mind of all this suls-division, is had and hurtful. It encourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pro scribe for a disease according to its luonc. There is no line of genuine distinction between continued fevers, that can he relied on. They rnu insensibly into each other, even the must dissimilar of them, and are often traceable to the same cause.” The above is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance and I would impress on your minds the folly of hunting up or troubling yourself about a “ name;” if you have fever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and you will be well instead of any distinct character being devel oped, so us to lie properly named by the most scientific. This assertion is lio hypothesis based oil closet specula tions or visions of mind, hut on experience at tlia bed side of the sick, in hundreds, uye, thousands of cases (by myself aud others) under a great variety of cir cumstances, seasons and climates. Dear this in mind, and treat at once without regard to name, and rest assured you will soon he freed from all dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers. But as cases may have be come developed before the “ F'luid” is given, either by neglect, or uuder some other treatment, I will describe as briefly as possible the proper course to be pursued in all of the most prominent fovers, though the “ Rules” and “ Synopsis” will he amply ‘sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon the sick. liulet important to be observed in all cases in using the Negative Klectric Fluid. Ist. It should he giveu iu three or four times its own quantity of water, and may he sweetened or not at pleasure. lid. I’atieuta must lie free from all currents of air, (though there should always be free vontilatiou in the sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in ti ueuce. 3d. It must be continued whenever the fever subsides, or is evidently passing oft'; to lie resumed when it begins to rise again, should such be tho case under any circumstances. 4th. When the fever begins to subside, patients must he left perfectly quiet; free from all exciteuieut; should not bo questioned as to their wants or feelings, nor attempt to converse, read or take any exercise whatever, till ttmlr own natural feelings, independent of all extra neous influences, iiuluce them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation be allowed in their hearing, in which they may feel mere or less interested, but he left quiet to all intents and purposes. sth. Fluids should he allowed, while giving it as plentifully, aud as loug 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 litny prefer or patients desire. Oth. Should patients experience any oppression or faintness while in tlis lying posture, so as to occasion a restlessness after the fever him passed off, or euoiigh to occasion them to speak of it, they should liave a little wine, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade with a little spirit, ginger, or some other stimulant; or the fie-e and breast may he 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, “ sto 15 “ “ “ 2 “ 6 “ “ 12 to 30 “ “ “ 5 “ 10 “ “ “0 to 60 “ 8 “ 15 half to a teaspoouful. All persons over fifteen considered as adults, for whom * teaspoonful is a common dose. Old persons do not require as much as youug, or those in the prime of life; uor females, as a general rule, as much as males. There is uo particular care necessary iu giving it to childreu—those of ton years of age frequently having taken full doses; but for a little guide, 1 have given the above table, with the remark that, as a general rule, children require more than adults in proportion. Uy observing the above directions, the medicine will be found agreeable iu all of it* effects, the expectations of the most sanguine realized, aud many perfectly astonished. My object in being thus particular is, that the full benefit of the medicine may he obtained, and not on account of auy actual necessity of such strict oh servauces. Bilious or Remittent Fever. Hive a teasponful 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 the “ Rules.” Dut should there he promiueut local symp toms, or knowu local existing causes, they should he attended to at once, aud while giving the “ Fluid.'* See Synopsis. If ill sny case the bowels are particularly constipated or confined, give a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the first portion ; they must he opened or the fever may rise again. Where the fever is very high, pulse running 110 or upwards, aud the patient is not particularly susceptible to the iullueuee of medicine—not easily operated on by medicine generally—a double dose, or two teaspoousful may be given at first with advantage, and even repeated in two hours—if it—the pulse—has not been softened, thus showing the medicine lias takeu effect. D.itliiug the surface with wuter at an agreeable temperature, tho saline wash, vinegar or spirits aud water, in these difficult oases, will afford relief and aid tho medicine much iu takiug effect. Congestive Fever. Give two teaspoousful and repest every two hours till the pulse becomes more full aud soft, then oulv a tea spoouful, to bo discontinued as the fever subsides. As the bowels are generally routined, 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 aetive cathartic with the “ Fluid” aud repost as may lie 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 be added to the “ Fluid” if thought advisable. Bee Synopsis. Nervous Fever, Typhus, Ship and Putrid or Spotted Fever, As these fevers sre ail of oue character, differing mainly in degree, being all of a low grade, the pulse ■ mall and wiry, with a general groat depression, there is uo 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 tlie common treatment, while with this but a few days will U necessary at longest to establish a permanent uunraleßceiic*. Tlis treatment should be commenced—which may Immediately fbllow any other without detriment—with a teaspoosful of “ Fluid” every two hours, till the pulse ” !’ r ’* r * ur iD Tolnrm *’ ‘hen to be continued see tn six or eight hours till t*e fever entirely subsides i Iu hail cases, from three to five grains each of qui nine. and capsicum (Cayenne pepper) or some tonic aud stimu lant (see auxiliaries) should he added to each dose. The bowels should he kept gently open, and small portions of some hepatic should he given occasionally, even though the bowels should he very loose. The patieut should he sustained by nourishing and mucilagenous drinks—sucli as are in common use in such cases.— Where tlie skin is very dry, sponging the surface as di rected in bilious fever, will bo found advantageous. Tonics should he used during convalescence, iu all cases which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lung or Winter Fever. (live a teasjioonful of the “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, suy once in six or eight hours. The boneset tea should he given warm till the violent symptoms are 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 tlie bowels gently open. Variola, Varioloid, Rubeola anil 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, tlie treatment differs hue little from that of common fevers. Renumber never wait to learn the “name,” whether it is one or tlie other, or neither, as they all commence with fever, bill treat it at once; govern the fever and there will be no trouble; there will bo but little eruption even iu small pox. This, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubtless will be regarded with ridicule by many. 1 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 that there is no necessity of its running its ordinary course. On this I will slake not only my reputation, hut ail that 1 hold most dear; besides, on this subject, X have good authority; tluil of I’rof. Watson, previously quoted, lie says, page 874: “You may abate tlie force of the eruptive lever, and keep down, itis believed, the number of the pustules by spline purges, Ae.” Here Is the admission that it may he done. I nave nut only proven it may be, but has been done in numerous rases that occurred on hoard ship. See the account appended. Give a teaspoonful or more, according to the urgency of the ease, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat the Fluid once in two hours if necessary, until the foversub sides—though one or two doses in genera ly sufficient; hut it should he giveu aud repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under control. When the throat is affected, any of the ordinary gargles ruuy he used, and the surface bathed, as thought advisable. ill one case, on the ship Duchess d’Orleans, the tongue and faucus were so much swollen that the patieut could not swallow or speak, and lie was cured by dropping tlie Fluid on Ids tougue, drop by drop, till he could swallow, when it was given in teaspoonful doses every hour, til) all alarming symptoms disappeared. Tho swelling of tlie throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment in about twelve hours by the F’luid alone.— Used to wet the throat frequently, it is doubtless the best yargle. in all such cuses. 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 he of little consequence. A single dose or two of a teaspoouful, almost invariably giving entire and per manent relief; no alarm need ho entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should he re peated as long as the fever continues, as iu other cases. The bowels of course should he 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 and suffering. It is to inform them of the happy effect of the Fluid in many of their trials. In child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives the labor of much of its paius and difficulties; it must he tried to be appreciated.— i’aiuful menstruation will ho 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 sos Many of tlie ills of females, if not tho most so ofany medicine known. Its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability and iritability of the nervous as well as tho circulatory. It will uot force sleep like opiates, hut it will sooth and quiet the system so (hat one can sleep naturully and healthy; lienee its use in so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, ami 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 all circumstances, without regard to the name it may he or ought to he called, it should he 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 in any case, they should he appropriate means, and these sohuld be given whilo giving tlie “ Fluid,” and in connection with it, when occasion requires, as they will then more readily act, producing more general effect, besides uo unnecessary time will then he lost. As the ‘, Fluid” alone will sub due the fever, 1 call all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) with the first dose, or soon after, and should it fail to operate in due time, repeat the dose; if attended with diarrhuea, give something known to bo 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 hitter herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet iu cold water, to the part; if violent pain in tlie 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, spongo or bathe tlie whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature; “tlie saline wash,” vinegar amt water or spirits and water, cither will afford great relief and aid the medi cine in taking effect, after which there will bo no trou ble; if tlie patient lias been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics aud stimulants, particularly in low fevers, in absence of fever or when indicated; also, during convalescence, when the patient lias become re duced; if there is nausea and vumitiug, that must he allayed before any medicine will remain on the 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” und a cathartic if necessary; in short, treat all the prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giving tlie “F'luid” at tlie same time as directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed,you cauuot realize it till yon have seen, and then you will he astonished at the Jase with which you eau control all febrile excitement. Auxiliaries. Parties may feel at a loss to know what is meant by oathartics, Ac., as physicians are usually particular about what is used. 1 have found no such necessity when using tho Fluid, and to be fully understood by all, 1 will name a tew of the different articles of medi cine I have referred to, viz:— Cathartics.—Articles that purge or operate on the bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots or harks, aud many pills, antihilious, Ac.; anything known to he good for such purposes. Ilepat ics.—Anything 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 in connection with tho “Fluid” or while tho system is under its in fluence. And one may choose calomel—another, blue mass—the third, podophyllin—tlio fourth, mandrake root, and so on; each may take his choice ami he suc cessful. Tonics.—Articles that give tone or strength, such as quinine, various harks, roots and hitter herbs. Rone set or thoroughwort Is one of tlie best used in fevers. Astringents.—Such as check the notion of the bowels. Laudanum and other preparations of opium arc used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents, which have tlie 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. Tlioao 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” than known in tho materia medico. I shall uot tax the render with a long list of proofs, depending mainly on the results of a trial, hiiil will only refer to one iustanee of success, that on tho Packetslili> Dnchesi D’Orleans. which caunot be classed among ordinary certificates: We, the uudersigued, certify to the’ following, viz— We took passage on tho packetship Duchess d’Orleans Capt Iluttou, then lyiug in the port of Havre, France’ and bound for New York. She sailed on the 9th of Ain gust, 1861, with over a hundred souls ou board, mostly emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, tlie email pox broke out among the emigrants, They were all treated by the physician in charge, Dr. N. W. Seat, with anew remedy of his own, which lie calls Negative ’ Klec tric Fluid, with which he seemed to have entire control over the disease, arresting it in a few hours, and curing ill a very short time. During the voyage, which lasted thirty-nine days, thore were about eighty cases of small pox, some fever Ac., and not a single death. Ali were cured with unu sual promptness. From what we saw during said passage, we are fully convinced that the medicine used by Dr. Beat on tlie oc casion, possesses inestimable virtues. We never liefer* 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, E. P. Farm. 84 Pearl street, New York. K. 0. Kauri, “ “ “ “ J. A. DiNokmanpy.
