Ji’ JbiGATI VE ELECTRIC FLUID, Prepared by Hi. W. Seat, M- D. i;itu-mi, why It should bo used instead of any other treat ment in nil Febrile affections: Ist.— Kcouoiuy of Time.— Aa only wswenatt .! the ordinary time in required to effect a cure. Id.—Kconomy of Money- As it cut* but out dollar. 3rd.—Economy of Feeling.— As it oaves the suffering of a loug sickness and the consequent treat ment ; tho aunoyanco ol taking nauseating dose* of medicine, their disagreeable operation, and the pain of lung confinement; but little of tho fluid being necessary, and that pleasant in its effects. 4tii. — Economy of Thought. —As when known, it will remove all dread and anxiety at present •misting, respecting febrile affections; particularly while a dear friend is sick. Dili. — Economy of Health. —As the system is not reduced, and consequently racked; nor is the fever subject to he followed by chronic disease. Oth.— Economy of Life. —As thecure is effected before and without reducing tike patient, consequently removing, in a corresponding degree, all danger of a fatal termination. Other reasons might bo added, but these are deemed sullioiont to satisfy all classos and persons in all condi tions of life. The above reasons are more particularly applicable to tho immediate treatment on the tirst attack, but will apply with equal force to cases which have been subject ed to’ or have become reduced, corresponding of course ♦,o the nature ol'tlie case at tho time it is lirst adminis tered. .Vs this remedy gi /es so prompt, cffoctual and perma nent relict', ill all ordinary cases, when used Siam after the attack, persons can scarcely realize that they had been really much sick, and very naturally conclude they won not attacked with fever, nud 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 uoeffect.” The general impression ou 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 *‘io individual has witnessed many eases that he can fully .culize the truth; and even then he may conclude them all very tiifling cases, which would have readily yielded to any simple medicine, yet persons, though they have been thus successful in perhaps hundreds of cases, must expect that there will cases occur win-re there is some organic or local cause so great as to require particular utieiitiou, or though success.ul ill reducing the fever, it will again rise as the influence of the “Fluid” passes oil, itH tite exciting cause may still exist. It i* to guard against disappointment in suen cases that 1 have given and frequently refer to what I have called a “ synopsis.” Remark* ou Fever* tu General- On this subject I wish to be fully understood. By the term “ levers,” 1 comprehend ull febrile affections to which tho human frame is subjuct, including small pox and uther eruptive fevon; hut as they arise by a great variety of causes, aud in quite dissimilar constitutions and habits, they of course differ considerably in their development aud exhibit a variety of forms or types; yet all are distinguished by the same general character istics—that ol undue excitement in tho circulatory and nervous systems—inducing more or less unnatural fre quency in the pulse, sense of heat, dryness of the skill, debility, Ac. To show that 1 ain not wholly alone in the opinion I advance, 1 quote from the celebrafed Prof. T. Watson, ul King’s College, London, whose work on the “ Princi ples aud Practice of Physic” is a text hook in many of our medical colleges, and consequently standard authority. lju page KIU. he says:—“We hear continually, both in aud 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, Ac. Anil systematic writers are to the full as particular: kliicous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Oastro-Euteric, and so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under various forms, 1 am persuaded tiiat the effect upon tho mind of ail this sub-division, is had and hurtful. It encourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pro scribe for u disease according to its name. There is no line of genuine distinction between continued fevers, that can lie relied on. They run insensibly into each other, even the most dissimilar of them, aud are often traceable to the same cause.” The above is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance aud I would impress on your minds tho folly of hunting up or troubling youiself about a “name;” if you have lever, treat it at once ns hereafter directed, aud you Mill be well instead of any distinctchuracter being devel oped, so as to he properly named by the most scientific. Tins assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula tions or visions of mind, hut on experience at the bed side of the sick, in hundreds, uye, thousands of cuses (by 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 you will soon he freed from all dread of liuger ing and dangerous fevers. But us cases may have be come developed before the “ Fluid” is given, either by neglect, or under somo othor treatment, I will describe us briefly as possible tho proper course to he pursued in all of the most prominent fevers, though the “ Rules” aud “ Synopsis” will be amply sufficient for all those accustomed to attendance upon the sick. Kales important to be obserxed in all cases in using the Negative Electric fluid. Ist. It should be given in three or four times its own quantity of water, and may he sweetened or not at pleasure. 2d. Patients must be free from all currents of air, (though there should always ho free ventilatiou in the sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in fluence. ad. It must ho continued whenever the fever subsides, or is evidently passing off; to be resumed when it begins to rise again, should such he the case under any circumstances. 4th. When the fever begins to subside, patients must ho left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should not ho questioned as to their wants or feelings, nor attempt to converse, read or take any exercise whatever, till their own natural feelings, independent of ail extra neous influences, induce them to rise or speak; nor should any conversation be allowed in their hearing, in which they may feel more or less interested, hut ho left quitH 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 decoctious, or teas, either cold or warm as parties muy prefer or patients desire. titb. Should patients experience any oppression or faintness while in the lying posture, so as to occasion a restlessness after tho 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 the face and lueast may he bathed in cold water; either of which will give immediate relief. table: of doses. r children of one year or under, lVoni 3 to 8 drops. “ over 1 and under 2 years, “ 6to 15 “ “ “ 2 “ 5 “ l2 to 30 “ “ 5 “ 10 “ 2O to 50 “ “ 8 “ 15 half to a teaspoonful. All persons over fifteen considered as adults, for whom n teaspoonful is a common dose. Old persons do not require os much as young, or those in the prime of life; nor females, as u general rule, aa much as males. Thera Is no particular care necessary iu giving it to children —those of ten years of age frequently having taken full doses ; but for a little guide, 1 have given tho 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 tie found agreeable iu all of its effects, the expectations of tlie most sanguine realized, aud mauy perfectly astonished. My object in being thus particular is, that the full benefit of the medicinu may be obtained, aud not ou account of any actual necessity of such strict ob servances. Bilious or Remittent Fever, (live a teaspouful of “ Fluid” (see rule Ist) once iu two hours, till the fever is evidently passing off; this constitutes the whole treatment in all simple cases of lever, with such observances as are sot forth iu the •• Rules.” But should there be prominent local symp toms. or known local existing causes, they should lie attended to at once, and while giving the “ Fluid.” Bee Synopsis. If iu any case the bowels are particularly constipated or confined, give a cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the tirst portion; they must be 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 influence of medicine—not easily operated on by medicine generally—s double dose, or two teaspoonsful may be given at tirst witii advantage, and even repeated in two hours—if it—tho pulse—has not been softened, thus showing the medicine has taken effect. Bathing the surfuco with water at an agreeable temperature, tlie saline wash, vinegar or spirit* nd water, in those difficult case*, will afford relief and aid the medicine much in taking effect. Congestive Fever. Hive two teaspoonsful and repeat every two hours till the pulse become* more full and *oft, then only a tea apoonful, to be discontinued as tho fever subsides. A* ttie bowels are generally routined, and It is frequently very difficult to get medicine to operate in this disease, no time should he lost to get them open, give some active cathartic with the “Fluid” and repeat as may he neces sary till it operates; enemas (injections) may also lie used to advantage; also, mustard to the extremities, or friction (rubbing) with the hands or flannel; also, raid applications to the head. Quinine may he added to the “ Fluid” if thought advisable. Bee 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 i* no practical use in separating them—at least so far as uit treatment Is concerned. In these low fevers, when fully developed, a little patience will be required; still emuparstively little, as they frequentlv run weeks under thr common treatment, while with this but a few days will he necessary at longest to establish a permanent convalescence. The treatment should be commenced—whieh may immediately follow any other without detriment—with teaepouaful of “ Fluid” every two honre, till the pulee Ib Oome. taller or laiger in volume, then to be continued aoe in sis or eight hours till tke fever entirely subsides. j In bad cases, frotn three to five grains each of t/uininc. and capsicum (Cayenne pepperj or some tonic aud stiiuu- I laut (see auxiliaries ) should he added to each dose. Tlie bowels should he kept gently open, aud small portions of some hepatic should he given occasionally, even though the bowels should lie very loose. The patient should he sustained by nourishing and mucilage-nous drinks—such us are in common use iu such cases.— Where tlie skin is very dry, sponging the surface us di rected iu bilious lever, will he found advantageous. Tonics should he used during convalescence, in all cases which have become reduced. Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lung or Winter Fever. (Jive a tcaspoouful of tho “ Fluid” every two hours, with a wine-glassful of a strong decoction of houeset; or half the quantity may he given every hour till relieved, then, ut longer intervals, say once iu six or eight hours. The bonsset tea should bo given warm till tlie 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 the bowels gently opeu. Variola, Varioloid, Rubeola and Scarla tinal or Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles, and Scarlet Fever. As all of these diseases are uttended with fever, which in fact is the most prominent symptom, the treatment differs hue little from that of common levers. Remember never wait to learn the “ no me,” whether it is one or tlie other, or neither, as they all commence with fever, hilt treat it at once; govern the fever and there will he no trouble; there will he but little eruption even in small pox. This, to most minds, is anew ideu, and doubtless will he regarded with ridicule by many. 1 nevertheless boldly make the assertion, that small pox, if treated as 1 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 litis I will stake not only my reputation, but ail that 1 hold most dear; besides, on this subject, 1 have good authority; that ol’ ITof. Watson, previously quoted. He says, page 874: “You may abate the force of tlie eruptive lever, and keep down, it is believed, the number of the pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Here is tho admission that it muy be done. I have not only proven it may be, hut has been done iu numerous cases that occurred on board ship. See the account appended. (Jive a teaspoonful or more, according to the urgency of tlie case, with a dose of salts or castor oil; repeat the Fluid once in two hours if necessury, until the feversuh sides—though one or two doses is genera.ly sufficient; hut it should he given and repeated sufficiently to keep tlie fever under control. When tlie throat is affected, any of the ordinary gargles may he used, and the surface bathed, us thought advisable. In one case, on the ship Duchess ((’Orleans, tlie tongue and faucus were so much swollen that the patient could not swallow or speak, and ho was cured by dropping tlie Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow, when ii was given in teaspoonful 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 tlie Fluid alone.— llßed to wot tho throat frequently, it is doubtless tlie best gargle in all such cases. Puerperal or Childbed Fever., This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming mulaily to which tlie mother is liable, will yield to tlie Negative Electric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem to be of little consequence. A single dose or two ol’ a teaspoouful, almost invariably giving entire aud per manent relief; no alarm need tie entertained, as the Fluid will arrest it iu a short time. It should he re peated as long as tlie fever continues, as in other cases. The bowels of course should he attended to. Iu connection with this subject, I cannot refrain from making a few general remurks, which, if regarded by the ladies, will save them much pain and suffering. It is to inform them of tlie 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 aud difficulties; it must he tried to he appreciated.— Painful menstruation will he relieved at once by a com mon dose aud 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 remedios for many of tlie ills of females; if not the most so ofany medicine known. Its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability aud iritability of the nervous as well as the circulatory. It will not forco sleep like opiates, but it will sootli and quiet the system so that one can sleep naturally ami healthy; hence its use iu so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense tlie treat ment as much as possible, I give under this head general directions for all cases. As the Negative Electric Fluid will change tho condition called fever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name it may he or ought to ho called, it should he given wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot he 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 sohuld he given while giviug the “Fluid,” and in connection with it, wheu 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 the fever, I call all else auxiliary treatment. If the bowels are costive, give a cathartic (see auxili aries) with the tirst dose, or soon after, aud 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, tho “ 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 iu the head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe the feet iu hot water; if the fever is very high, skin dry and hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe the whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature; “the saliue wash,” vinegar ami water or spirits ami water, either will afford great relief aud 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, give tonics aud stimulants, particularly in low fevers, in absence of fever or when indicated; also, during convalescence, when the putieut has become re duced ; if there is nausea aud vomiting, that must he allayed before any medicine will reumiu 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 answe.r every purpose; wheu tlie stomach lias settled, give the “ Fluid” and a cathartic if necessary ; in short, treat all the prominent symptoms as y ou would under any other cireumstances, giving tlie “ Fluid” at the sume time as directed, and success will crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till you have seen, anil then you wilt he astonished at tlie ease with which you can control all febrile excitement. Auxiliaries. Parties may feel at a loss to know what is meant by cathartic*, Ac., as physicians are usually particular about what is used. 1 have found no such 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;— Cathartic*. —Articles that purge or operate on tlie bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, auy of tlie roots or barks, and many pills, antibilious, Ac.; anything know n to he good for such purposes. Hepatic*.—Anything known 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. Aud one may choose calomel—another, blue mass—the third, podopliyllln—the fourth, tnandrako root, ami so on; each may take his choice and be suc cessful. Tonic*.—Articles that give tone or strength, such as quinine, various harks, roots and hitter herbs. Rone se: or thoroughwort is one of the best used in fevers Astringents.—Such as check the action of the bowels. laudanum and other preparations of opium are used; also, many mixtures, not properly astringents, which have tlie effect. Stimulant*.—Articles that raise or excite the system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of tlie best; gingci, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., the essences are all more or less stimulating. These are the only classes necessa ry in treatiug fevers, though many others are generally used, but the Negative Electric Fluid is a better “dia phoretic,*’ “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and “ iedativo” than known iu tho materia medico. I shall not tax the reader with a long list of proofs dapeuding mainly on tho results of a trial, anil will only refer to one instance of success, that on the Packetshlp Duchess D'Orlean*. which cannot be classed among ordiuary certificates • We, the undersigned, certify to the following viz— n e took passage ou the packetsliip Duchess d’Orleans Capt Hutton, then lying in the port of Havre, Fiance’ and bound for New York.

This preparation lias attained a wide celebrity from the universal success which has attended its use. For coughs, colds, and in fact, auy pulmonary complaints, this medicine, from its peculiar'properties ns a dissolvent and its soothing pow er to all irritations of tho throat, will probably be preferred to any other offered to the public.
