-tftSGATIVE ELECTRIC FLUID, Prepared by N. W. Seat, M. I*. i.ea-mus liy it should be used instead of any other treat ment in all Febrile affections : let.—Bconomy of Timer—Aa only one-seventh >(’ the ordinary time is required to effect a cure. -i<l.--Kconomy of Money<—Aa it c.iiU but oue dollar. 3rd.—Kconomy of Keeling.—As it save* the nutteriug of a tout; sickness and the consequent treat incut; tile annoyance of taking nauseating donee of medicine, their disagreeable operation, and the pain of long confinement; but little of tlio fluid being necessary, and that pleasant in its effects. 4lll.—Kconomy of Thought.—As when known, it will remove all dread and anxiety at present ixistiug, respecting febrile affections; particularly while a dear friend is sick. sth.—Kconomy of Health.—As the system is nut reduced, and consequently racked; nor is the lever subject to be followed by chronic disease. Gth.—Kconomy of Klfe.—As the euro is effected before and without reducing the patient, consequently removing, in a corresponding degree, all dangerof a fatal termination. Ollier reasons might lie added, bnt these are deemed “iidb'senf to satisfy all classes and persons in all condi tions id’ lile. i'i.e above reasons are more particularly applicable to Uie immediate treatment on the first attack, but will apply with equal force to cases which liuve been subject <vl to or have become reduced, corresponding of couise \o the nature ot the case at the time it is iirst adminis tered. As this ruiuudy gives so prompt, effectual and perma nent relief, In *ll ordinary cases, when used soou after the attack, persons can scarcely realize that they had been really much sick, and vory naturally conclude they Wen not attacked with fever, audit’ so, “it was trifling —a little cold, which gave alarm—it could have been nulhing of consequence—it would have [sissed off with out my thing—that medicine had no effect.” The general Impression on the subject of fever is such, that thoughts not unlike tliu above follow the cure of a common case as naturally us men think at all; and it is not until *'te individual has witnessed many cases that lie can fully .eallze the truth; and even then he may conclude them all vory trifling cases, which would have readily yielded t<> any simple medicine, yet persons, though they have been thus successful in perhaps hundreds of cases, must expect that th ro wil. casus occur where there is some organic or local cause so great as to require particular attention, or though success.til 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 to sticn cases that I have given and frequently refer to what I liuve called a “ synopsis.” Krmarks on Fever* In General’ Du tins subject 1 wish to be fully understood, liy the term “ fevers,” i comprehend all febrile affections to which Hie 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 unit hubils, 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, Jtc. To allow that I am not wholly alone in the opinion 1 advance, 1 quotu from the celebrated Prof. T. Watson, of King’s College, London, whose work on the •• Priuci Dies and Practice of Physic” is a text Imok in many of our medical colleges, and consequently standard authority. On page 834, ho 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, Low Fever, Nervous fever, A-:. And systematic writers arc to the lull as particular: Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Castro-F.nteric, and so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, 1 am persuaded that the effect upon the mind of ail tills sub-division, is bud 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, tii.it can bo relied on. They rtui insensibly into each other, even the most dissimilar of thorn, and are often t raceable to the same causo.” Tho above is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance and 1 would impress oa your minds the folly of hunting up or troubling youi self about a “ name;” if you have fever, treat it at ouee as hereafter directed, ami you mill be well instead of any distinct character 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, in hundreds, aye, thousands of cases (bv myself and others) under a great variety of cir cumstances, seasons and climates. Bear this in mind, and treat at once without regard to name, and rest assured yon will soon bo freed from all dread of liuger iug and dangerous fevers. But as cases may liuve he i nine developed before the “ fluid” is given, cither by neglect, or under some other treatment, I will describe as briefly as possible th* proper courso to lie pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though the t‘ Rules” and “ Synopsis” will be amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon the sick. Halts important In be observed in all cases in using the Negative Electric Fluid. Ist. It should bo given in throe or four times its own quantity of wutor, and may bo sweetened or not at pleasure. 2d. Patients must be free from all currents of air, (though there should always bo free ventilation in the sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in fluence. Ad. It must be continued whenever the fever subsides, or is evidently passing off; to be resumed when it begins to rise again, should such be the ease under any circumstances. 4tli. When the fever begins to subside, patients must be left perfectly quiet; free from all 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 extru ueous influences, induce them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation bo allowed in their bearing, in which they may fool more or less interested, lint lie left quiet to all intents and purposes. uth. fluids sliouhl be allowed, while giving it as plentifully, and as long us the patient desires and no longer; they may consist of cold water, mucilaginous dunks, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, cither cold or warm aa parties may prefer or patients desire. Oth. Should patients experience any oppression or faintness while in tha lying posture, so as to occasion a restlessness after the fever lias 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 somo other stimulant; or the face and breast may lie 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 18 “ “ “ 2 “ 6 “ l2 to 30 “ “ “ 6 “ 10 “ “ 20 to 80 “ “ “ 8 “ IS half to a teaspoonful. All persons over fifteen considered as adults, for whom a teaspoonful is a cotumou dose. Old persons do not require as much as young, or those in the prime of life; nor females, as a general rule, as much as males. There is no particular care necessary in giving it to children —those of ten 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. By observing the above directions, the medicine will bo found agreeable in ull of itseffoota, tlie expectations of ihe most sanguine realized, and many perfectly nstimishod. My object in being thus particular is, that ihe full benefit of the medicine may be obtained, and not on account of any artual necessity of such strict ob servances. Ulllaua or Remittent Fever. tiive a teasponful of “ fluid” (see rule Ist) utice 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.” Bnt should there be prominent local symp toms, or known local existing causes, they should be attended to at once, and while giving the “fluid.” See Synopsis. If iu any case tho bowels are particularly constipated or coufined, give n cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the first portion; they must be opened or the fever may rise again. Where the fever is very high, pulse ruuuing 110 or upwards, and tlie patient is not particularly susceptible to tlie influence of medicine —not easily operated on by medicine generally—a double dose, or two tcaspoousful may be given at first with advantage, and even repeated in two hour*—lf it—tlie pulse—lias not been softeneil, thus showing tho medicine lias taken effect. Bathing the surface with water at an agreeablo tomparaturo, the saline wash, viuegar or spirit* and water, in theso difficult cases, will afford relief anil aid the medicine much iu taking effect. Congestive Fever. (liv two teaspoousful and repeat every two hours till the pulse becomes more full and soft, then only a tea spoonful, to bo discontinued as the fever tnbaldei. As the 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 lie used to advantage; also, mustard to the extremities, or friction (rubbing) with tlie hands or flan .el; also, cold applications to the head. Quinine may be added to the “ Fluid” if thought advisable. Bee 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 small and wiry, with a general grant 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 tli common treatment, while with this but a few days will be necessary at longest to establish a permanent convalescence. The treatment should be com sis need—which may immediately follow any other without detriment-—with h t-a-pooaful of “ Fluid” every two honrs, till the pulse heeopws MU*r or larger in volume, then to be continued **• tu six or eight hour* till fever entirely subside*. In bad rasas, from three tq five grains each of quinine and capsicum (Cayenne pepper) or some tonic and stimu lant (see auxiliaries) should be added to each done. The bowels should be kept gently open, and small portions of some hepatic should bo giveh occasionally, even though the bowels should be very loose. Tho patient should be sustained by nourishing and mucilagenuus drinks—such us are in common use iu sucli cases.— Where tlie skill is very dry, sponging tho surlace as di rected in bilious fever, wilt be found advantageous. Tonics should be used during convalescence, in ail cases which have bec-ume reduced. Pneumonia, TypUoid Pneumonia, Lung or Winter Fever. Give a teaspoonl'ul of tlie “ Fluid” every two hours, with a wine-glassful ol a strong decoction of boueset; or half the quantity may be given every hour till relieved, tiien, at longer intervals, say once iu six or eight hours. Tho boueset tea should be given wurm till the violent symptoms are allayed, or the patient is relieved; then cold; fomentations, mustard pluster, or something of the kiud, to be applied over the scat 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 witli fever, which in fact is tho most prominent symptom, the treatment differs hue little from that of common levers. Remember never wait to learn tlie “ /tome,” whether it is olio or tlie other, or neither, as they ull commence with fever, but treat it at once; govern the fever and there will be no trouble; there will be but little eruption even iu small pox. This, to most minds, is anew idea, and doubtless will lie regarded w ith ridicule by many. 1 nevertheless boldly make tlie assertion, that small pox, if treated as t 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 tins f will stake not only my reputation, hut ml that I hold most dear; besides, on this subject, 1 have good authority; that of Prof. Watson, previously quoted. lie says, page b 74: “Vou may abuto tlie force of tlie eruptive lever, and keep down, it is believed, tlie number of the pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Here is the admission tliut it may bo dono. 1 nave not only proven it may be, but has been done iu numerous eases tliut occurred on board ship, flee the account appended. Give a teaspoonful or more, according to tlie urgency of tlie case, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat tlie Fluid once iu two hours if necessary, until theieversub sfdes—though one or two doses is genera-ly sufficient; hut it should ho given and repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under eontrol. When the throat is affected, any of tlie ordinary gargles may be used, ami tlie surface bathed, as thought advisable. Iu one case, on tlie ship Duchess d’Orleans, the tongue and faur.ua were so much swollen that the patient could uot swallow or speak, and lie was cured by dropping the fluid on Ills tongue, drop by drop, till be could swallow, when it was given iu teaspoonful doses every hour, till all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of tlie throat was reduced so as to euable him to take nour ishment in about twelve hours by the Fluid alone.— Used to wet tlie throat frequently, it is doubtless tlie best gargle in ail 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 little Consequence. A single dose or two of a teuspoouful, 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 the fever continues, as iu 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 (lie 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 pains and difficulties; it must he tried to be appreciated.— Painful menstruation will be 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 fornmuy of the ills of females, if not the most so ofany medicine known. Its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability and iritability of the nervous as well as the circulatory. It will uot force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and quiet the system so that one can sloep naturally and healthy; hence its use in so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense the treat ment ns much as possible, I give under this head general directions fur all cases. As the Negative Electric Fluid will change tlie condition called lever, or subdue ami control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name it may bo or ought to be 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 in order to effect a permanent cure. When such indications occur in any case, they should be appropriate means, and these soiiuld be given while giviug tlio “fluid,” and iu connection witli it, when occasion requires, as 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 the first dose, or soou after, and 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, the “ Fluid” will soon relievo 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 tlie part; if violent pain iu the head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe the feet in hot water; if the fever is very high, skin dry and hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe tlie whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature; “the saline wash,” viuegar and water or spirits and water, either will afford great relief and aid tlie medi cine in taking effect, after which there will be no trou ble ; if the patient lias been reduced or is much prostra ted, %ive tonics and stimulants, particularly iu low fevers, in absence of fever or when indicated; also, during convalescence, when the patient has become re duced; if there is nausea and vomiting, that must lie allayed before any medicine will remain on the 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 has settled, give tlie “ Fluid” uud a cathartic if necessary ; in short, treat all tlie prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giving tiie “Fluid” at the same time us directed, and success will crown your elforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till you have seen, and then you will be astonished at tlie ease witli which you can control all febrile excitement. Auxiliaries. Parties may feel at a loss to know what is meant by cathartics, 4c., as physicians are usually particular about wit at is used. 1 have found ho such necessity when using tlie Fluid, ami to be fully understood by all, 1 will name a lew of tlie different articles of medi cine I have referred to, viz:— Cathartic*.—Articles that purge or operate on tlie bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, any of tlie roots or barks, and many pills, autibilious, 4c.; anything kuown to be good for such purposes. Hepatic*.—Anything kuown to act 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 while the system is under its in fluence. And oue may choose calomel—another blue mass—the third, podophyllin—the fourth, mandrake root, uud so on; each may take his choice and be suc cessful. Tonic*.— Articles that give tone or strength, such as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. Bouo set or thoroughwort is one of tlie la-st used in fevers Astringent*. —Such as check the action of the bowels. Laudanum and other preparations of opium are used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringent* which have tlie effect. stimulant a. Articles that rulsu or excite tlie system. Capsicum (Coyeune pepper) is one of Hie best • ginger, spirits, hartshorn, 4c., the essences are all more or less stimulating.

RECOMMENDATIONS. New Oueeans, April 9, 1555. Dear Sir—The public generally are fully aware of ■ lie thousands of remediesfor Diseased Lungs, under the titles of Sarsaparilla*, Pills, Plasters, Liniments, Ac., that art daily brought to their notice through the newspapers by way of advertisements. My object in writing this note for publication, is to induce ihe public, or at least those who are afflicted, to use oue that contains articles of Heal L'se in Duhnonary Diseases. lam conscious that in so doing, 1 am acting most unprofessionally,and deroga torily to the interests of Medical Science and tlie regular Practitioners of Mcdiciue. 1 refer to Woodman’s Cherry Expectorant, which is u scientific remedy that I have used with more success titan any of the usual prescrip tions used by Physicians. J. M. Maitland, M. D. Gai.latin, Miss.. May 1, 1565. O. 0. 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 the bearer. Respectfully, W. M. Mason, M. D. This preparation hits attained a wide celebrity from the universal success which has attended its use. For coughs, colds, and in fact, any pulmonary complaints, this medicine, from its peculiar properties as a dissolvent and its soothing power to all irritations of tho throat, will probably be preferred to any other offered to the public. As an appetizer, or dyspeptic remedy, it w ill also be found excellent, its natural and genial warmth keeping the digestive powers in proper tone. Remember that this is thu only Cough Medicine that has stood the test of the medical fraternity. It is sanc tioned by, approved of, ami recommended by the leading Physicians of New York city. Every bottle is warranted to give satisfaction or the money refunded.
