NEGATIVE ELECTRIC FLUID, Prepared by ST. W. Seat, M. D. l.mMNi* why it should bo used Instead of any other treat - ment in all Febrile affection*: 1 at.— Economy of Time, — As only vne-seoenth .1 the ordinary time Is required to effect a cure. til—Kconomy of Moneye-Ai it cut* but one dollar. llrd.—Kconomy of Feeling —As It saves the suffering of a long sickness and the consequent treat ment; the annoyance of taking nauseating doses of medicine, their disagreeable operation, and the pain of long conti neincut; hut little of the fluid being necessary, and that pleasant in its effects. Ith. Kconomy of Thought.— As when known, it will remove all dread and anxiety at present listing, respecting febrile affections; particularly while a dear friend is sick. sth.— Kconomy of Health. —As the system is not reduced, and consequently racked; nor is the fever subject to lie followed by chronic disease. Oth. — Kconomy of Life. —As the cure is effected before and without reducing the patient, consequently removing, ill n corresponding degree, all danger of a fatal termination. Other reasons might be added, but these are deemed .ulhcsent to satisfy all classes and persons in all condi tions of life. The above reasons are more particularly applicable to the immediate treatment on the lirst attack, hilt will apply with equal force to cases wliirli have been sutiject .l to or have become reduced, corresponding ol course •o the nature of tbs case at the time it is lirst adminis tered. tills remedy gives so prompt, 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 tin y wen not attacked with fever, and if so, “it was trifling —a little cold, whicli gave alarm—it could have been nothing of consequence—it would have passed oft with out anything—that medicine had no effect.” The general impression on the subject of fever is such, tliat thoughts not unlike tile above follow tile cure of a common case as naturally as meu think at all; and it is not until ‘he individual has witnessed many cuscstliat lie can fully .ealise the truth; mid even then he may conclude them all very trifling cases, which would have readily yielded to liny simple medicine, yet persons, though they have lie> ii thus successful in perhaps hundreds of cases, must expect that there will cases occur where there is some organic or local cause so great as to require particular attention, or though success, ill in reducing the fever, it will again rise as the influence of the “Fluid” passes off, us the exciting cause may still exist. It is to guard against disappointment in suen cases tliat I have given and frequently referto whnt I have called a ‘‘synopsis.” Htmsrki on Fever* In General* Uu this subject 1 wish to be fully understood. Ity the term “fevers,” I comprehend all febrile affections to which tlio human frame is subject, including smalt pox and other eruptive fevers; but as they arise by a great variety of causes, and in quite dissimilar constitutions and liubits, limy 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— tliat o! 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 1 am not wholly alone in the opinion I advance, 1 quote from the celebrated Prof. T. Watson, ul King's College, London, whose work on the “ Prlncl idea and Practice of Physic” is a text hook in many of ■ iur medical colleges, and consequently ilandanlauthority. On page 834, he says:—“We hear continually, both in and out of the profession, different species of fever spo ken of. lly the public, Typhus Fever, Brain Fever, Bilious F'ever, Putrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever, Ac. And systematic writers are to the full as particular: Mucmn Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Gastro-Knteric, and so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, I am persuaded tliat the effect upon the mind of all this sub-division, is bad and hurtful. It encourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pre scribe for n disease according to its 7ianu. There is no line of genuine distinction between continued fevers, that can be relied on. They rnn insensibly into each other, even the most dissimilar of them, and are often traceable to the same cause.” The above is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance and 1 would impress on your minds tiie folly of hunting up or troubling you. self about a “name;” if you have fever, treat it at ouce as hereafter directed, and you willbe well instead of any distinctcharacter being devel oped, so as to lie properly named by the most scientific. This assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula lious or visions of mind, but on experience nt the bed side of the sick, iu hundreds, aye, thousands of cases thy myself and others) under a great variety of cir cumstances, seasons and climates. Hear this in mind, and treat at once without regard to name, and rest assured you will soon be freed from all dread of linger iug and dangerous fevers, lint as cases may have be . ome developed before the “ Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under some other treatment, I will describe as briefly ns possible the proper course to be pursued iu ail of the most prominent fevers, though the “ Rules” and “ Synopsis” will be amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon the sick. Itules important to be observed in all cases in using the Negative Electric f'luul. Ist. It should bo given in three or four times its own quantity of water, and may be sweetened or not at pleasure. 2d. Patients must be freo from all currents of air, (though there should always ho free ventilation in the sick room,) nor attempt to go about while umler its in ffueuco. ltd. It must be continued whenever the fever subsides, or is evidently passing off; to be resumed when it bugins to rise again, should such be the case under uny circumstances. 4th. Wlien tile fever begins to subside, patients must ho 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, dll their own natural feelings, independent of nil extra neous influences, induce them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation bo allowed in their 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 the patient desires anil 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. 6th. Should patients experience any oppression or faintness while in tlis lying posture, so as to occasion a restlessness after the fever has passed off, or enough to occasion them to speak of it, they should have a little wine, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemonade witli a little spirit, ginger, or gome other stimulant; or the face and breast may he bathed in cold water; either of which will give immediate relief. TABLE OF DOSES, r children of one your or under, from 3 to 8 drops. “ over 1 and under 2 years, “ sto 15 “ “ “ 2 “ 5 “ “ 12 to 30 “ “ “ 5 “ 10 “ “ 20 to 50 “ “ “ 8 “ 15 half to a teuspoonful. All persons over fifteen considered as adults, for whom h teaspoonful is a common dose. Old persons do not require as much as young, or those in the prime of life; uor females, as a general rule, as mud) as males. There is no particular care necessary iu giving it to diildrou —those of ten years of age frequently having taken full doses ; but for a little guide, I have given the above table, with the remark that, as a general rule, children require morn than adults iu proportion. lly observing the above directions, the medicine will be found agreeable iu nil of its effects, the expectations of the most sanguine realized, aud many perfectly astonished. My object iu being thus particular is, that I lie full benefit of the medicine may be obtained, aud not oil account of any actual necessity of such strict ob servances. Bilious or Kemlttent Fever. (Jive a teaaponful of “ Fluid” (see rule Ist) once iu two hours, till the fever is evidently passing off'; this constitutes the whole treatment iu all simple cases of fever, with such observances as are set forth in the ” Rules.” But should there be prominent local symp toms, or known local existing causes, they should be attended to at once, aud while giving the “ Fluid.” Bee Synopsis. If in any case the bowels are particularly constipated nr coufined, glvo a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the first portion; they must be opened or the fever may rise again. Where the fever Is very high, pulse runuiug 110 or upwards, and the patient is uot particularly susceptible 1.1 the influence of medicine—uot easily operated on by medicine geuerall.v—a double dose, or two teospoonsful may be given at first witli advantage, aud uveu repeated m two bours—if it—the pulse—lias not been softened, thus showing the medicine lias taken effect. Bathiug the surface with water at an agreeable temperature, the saline wash, vinegar or spirits and water, iu these difficult cases, will afford relief aud aid tiie medicine much in taking effect. Congestive Fever. (live two teospoonsful and repeat every two hours till tiie pulso becomes more full and soft, then ouly a tea spoonful, to he discontinued ns the fever subsidei. As the bowels are generally confined, aud it is frequently very difficult to get medicine to operate in this disease, uo 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 the head. Quinine may he added to the “ Field” if thought advisable. See Synopsis. Nervous Fever, Typhus, Ship and 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 great depression, there is no practical use In separating them—at least so far as toy 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 be aecsssary at longest to establish a permanent convalesce tics. The treatmeit should be commenced—whieh may Immediately follow any other without detriment—with ateoepounful of “ Fluid’’ every two hours, till the pnls* b.soias. fuller or lai ger tu volume, then to be continued a*e to sis er sight hours till o>e fever entirely subsides. In bad casts*, from three to five grains each of quinine and capsicum (Cayenne peppery or some tonic and stimu lant (see auxiliaries; should be added to each dose. The bowels should be kept gcutly open, aud small ]H>rtiou of some hepatic should be given occasionally, even though the bowels should lie vory loose. The patient should be sustained by nourishing and mucilagenous drinks—suclt as are iu common use iu such cases.— Where the skin is very dry, sponging the surface as di rected iu bilious fever, will be found udvuntaguous. Tonics should be used during convalescence, in all cases which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lung or Winter Fever. Give a teaspoouful of the Fluid” every two liourß, with a wine-glassful ol a strong decoction of boneset; or half the quantity may he given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say ouce in six or eight hours. 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 the bowel* gently open. Variola, Varioloid, ilubeola and Scarla tina; or Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles, and Scarlet Fever. As all of tlieso diseases are attended with fever, which iu fact is tlio most prominent symptom, the trentment differs hue little from tliat of common fevers. Remember never wait to learn the “name,” whether it Is one or tiie other, or neither, as they all commence with /ever, but treat it at once; govern the fever and there will lie uo trouble; there will be but UUle eruption even in small pox. This, to most minds, is anew bleu, and doubtless will be regarded with ridicule by many. I nevertheless boldly make tiie assertion, that small pox, if treated as I direct, will bn cut short; attended with hut little erup tion; little or no pitting, aud tliat there is nu necessity of its running its ordinary course. On this 1 will slake not only my reputation, lint a.I tliat 1 hold most dear; besides, on this subject, 1 have good authority; that of Prof. Watson, previously quoted. He says, page 874: “You may abate the force of the eruptive lever, and keep down, it is believed, the number nj the pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Here is tiie admission that it may be done. 1 nave uot only proven it may be, but has been dotio iu uumerous eases tliat occurred on board ship, See tlio account appended. (live a teaspoouful or more, according to tiie urgency of tiie case, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat tiie Fluid ouce in two hours if necessary, until the leversub sUloh—though one or two doses is genera.ly sufficient; but it should he given and repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under control. When tiie throat is affected, any of tiie ordinary gargles may he used, and the surface bathed, as thought advisable. I u one case, on tiie ship Duchess d’Orleans, tiie tongue aud faucus were so much swollen that the patient could not swallow or speak, and he was cured by dropping the Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow, when it was given in teaspoouful doses every hour, till all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of the throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment iu about twelve hours by the Fluid alone.— Used to wet the throat frequently, it is doubtless tiie best gargle in all such cases. Puerperal or Childbed Fever., This heretofore painful, daugerous ami alarming malady to which the mother is liable, will yield to the Negative Electric Fluid with sucli readiness, as to seem to be of little consequence. A single close or two of a teaspoouful, almost invariably giving entile aud per manent relief; no ularm need lie entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should he re peated us long as tile f*<ver continues, as in 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 the ladies, will save them much pain aud suffering. It is to inform them of the happy effect of the Fluid in many of their trials. Iu child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives the labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must lie tried to be appreciated.— Painful menstruation will bo relieved at ouce by a com mon dose and retiring. Restlessness, nervous irritability, or a cold taken at a delicate time, is easily relieved by its use; in short, it is one of tlio most convenient and effectual remedies for many of tiie ills of females, if not the most so of any medicine known. Its effect is uniform, relaxiug tiie whole system, removing all excitability and iritability of the nervous ax well as the circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, but it will sooth and quiet the system so that one can sleep naturally and healthy; hence its use iu so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense the treat ment as much as possible, 1 give under this head general directions for all cases. As the Negative Electric Fluid will change the condition called tever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name it may he or ought to lie called, it should he giveu 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 iu any case, they should be appropriate means, and these sohuld be giveu while giviug the “Fluid,” and iu couuection with it, when occasion requires, us they will then more readily act, producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary time will then he lost. As the *, Fluid” alone will sub due the fever, I call all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels are costivo, 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 diarrhoea, give something known to be good for that complaint, though if caused by irritability, tiie “Fluid” will soon relieve that condition; if severe local (iaiu or inflammation, apply some stimulating liniment, a mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of hitter herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet in cold water, to the 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 the whole surface with water at au agreeable temperature; “the saline wash,” vinegar ami 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 the patient has been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics and stimulants, particularly in low fovorß, 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 be 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 lias settled, give the “Fluid” and a cathartic if necessary ; in short, treat all the prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giviug the “Fluid” at the same time as directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till you have seen, and thon you will be astonished ut tlio 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 ho fully understood by all, I 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, and many pills, antlbilious, Ac.; anything known to be good for such purposes. Ilepattcs.—Anything known to act on tho liver particularly, portal circulation and secretions generally. Any of the articles depended on by the different schools for this purpose, will answer wheu usod in connection with the “Fluid” or while tiie system is under its in fluence. And one may choose calomel—another, blue mass—the third, podophyllin—the fourth, mandrake root, and so on; each may take his choice aud be suc cessful. Tunica.—Articles that give tone or strength, such as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. Roue, set or thoroughwort is one of the best used in fevers. Astringent a.—Such as check the action of the laiwels. Laudanum aud other preparations of opium are used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents, which have the effect. Stimulant*.—Articles that raise or excite the system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is ouo of the best; ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., the essences are all more or less stimulating. These are tiie only classes necessa ry in treating fevers, though many others are generally used, but the Negative Electric Fluid is a better “ dia phoretic.” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and “ sedative” tliau known in tho materia medial. I shall not tax the 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 tiie Packet ship Durliess D’Orleans. which cannot he classed among ordinary certificates: We, the undersigned, certify to the following, viz— We took passage on tho packetship Duchess d'Orleuns, Capt Hutton, then lying in the port of Havre, France and bound for New York. She sailed on the 9th of Au gust, 1851, with over a hundred souls on board, mostly emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, tiie small pox broke out among tlio emigrants, They were all treated by the physician iu charge, Dr. N. W. Seat, with anew remedy ofhis own, which he calls Negative Elec tric Fluid, with which he seemed to have entire control over the disease, arresting it in a few hours, and curing in a very short time. During tiie voyage, which lasted thirty-nine davs, there were about eighty cases of small pox, some fev'er Ac., and net a single death. All wore cured with uuu sual promptness. From what we shw during said passage, we are fully convinced that the medicine used by Dr. Seat ou the oc casion. possesses inestimable virtues. We never before heard or read of febrile affections being controlled with •o nineh ease, promptness and certainty, or so little trouble to the nurse.

Dear Sir—The public gcnerall* are fully aware of ilio thousands of remediesfor Diseased Lungs, under the titles of Sarsapariilas, Pills, Plasters, Liuhnents, 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 the public, or at least those who are afflicted, lo use one that, contains articles of Heal Use in Pulmonary Diseases. lam conscious that in so doing, 1 am acting most unprofessionully, and deroga torily to the interests of Medical Science and the regular Practitioners of Mediciuo. I refer to Woodman's Cherry Expectorant, which is a scientilic remedy that 1 have used with more success than any of the usual prescrip tions used by Physicians. J. M. Maitlanp, M. D. Gallatin, Miss., May 1, 1555. 0. 0. Woodman —Deal Sir; 1 have given your Cherry Expectorant it 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, • M . M. Mason, M. D. This preparation has 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 the throat, will probably be preferred to any other offered to the public. As an appetizer, or dyspeptic remedy, it will also be found excellent, its natural and genial warmth keeping the digestive jKiwers in proper tone. Remember that this is the only Cough Medicine that has stood the test of the medical fraternity. It is sanc tioned by, approved of. and recommended by the leading Physicians of New York city.
