fuiu.ia'lVE JiILECTRIC FLUID,

dotlftr.
3rd.— Kcenomy of Feeling— A* it wve the
-ulYoring of a long aiokness and the cniiHei|iieut treat
uient; the anuoyanco of taking nauseating doses of
medicine, their disagreeable operation, mid the pain of
lung confinement; hut little of tlw fluid being necessary,
and that pleasant in its effect*.
4th. — Economy of Thought. —As wheu
known, it will remove all dread and anxiety at present
xistin ‘, respecting fobrileaffections; particularly while
a dear friend is sick.
slh of Health.- As the system
is not reduced, and consequently racked; nor is the fever
subject to be followed by chronic disease.
11l !>.— Economy of Life.—As theccre is effected
before aud without reducing the patient, consequently
removing, in a corresponding degree, all danger of a fatal
termination.
Other reasons might be added, but these rr deemed
sulttciout to satisfy all classes and persons in all condi
tions of life.
Tile 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
'd to or have become reduced, corresponding of eonrse
•o t tie nature of t lie case at the time ilia first adminis
tered.
Ac this remedy gives so prompt, effectual amt perma
nent relief, in nil ordiiiHiy cai.es, when used warn alter
the attack, persons ran scarcely realize that they had
been really much sick, and very naturally conclude lin y
w„r; not attacked with fever, and if so, ‘fit was trifling
a little cold, which gave alarm —it could have been
no, iiiug of consequence —It would hove passed off with
out anything—that medicine had uoeffeot.” The general
impression on the subject of fever ie such, that thoughts
not unlike the above follow the cure of u Common case
. naturally as men thiuk at all; and it is not until
•ho individual lias witnessed many cases that lie rail lolly
.value tlio truth; nnd even then he may conclude them
nil very trifling casus, which would have readily yielded
to any simple medicine, yet persons, though they have
been thus successful ill perhaps hundreds of c ases, must
expect that there will cases occur where there is some
• i or local cause so great ns to require particular
aUeution, or though success ill in reducing the fever,
it will again i ise fts the influence of the ■’ Fluid” passes
elf, as the exciting cause limy still exist. It is to guard
against disappointment 111 suen eases that I have given
and frequently refer to what 1 have called a “ synopsis.”
Rciunrk.* on Fevers In General*
On this subject I wish to be fully uuderstosal. Hy tbe
term ‘•fevers.’ 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
vui iuty of causos, anil in quite dissimilar constitutions
and habile, they ot course differ considerably in their
development aud exhibit a variety of forms or types;
yet nil are distinguished by t lie same general character*
[sties—that ol undue excitement in the circulatory and
nervous systems—inducing more or less unnatural fre
quency iu the pulse, sense ot heat, dryness of the skin,
debility, Ac.
To show that 1 him not whully alone in the opinion I
advance, I quote from the celebrated Frol. T. Watson,
.and King's College, London, whose work on the •* Princi
les and Fraction of Fliysio” is a textbook in many of
•nil- medical colleges, nnd consequently standard author ity.
On page 834, he says:—“We hear continually, both in
and nut of the profession, different species of fever spo
ken of. By tlio public, Typhus Fever, Brain Fever,
Bilious Fever, Futrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever,
Ac. And systematic writers ure to the full us particular:
Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, tinstro-Enteric, and
so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under
iacinus forms, I am persuaded that the effect upon tiie
mind of all this sub-division, is bad and hurtful. It
encourages a disimsition, already too prevalent, to pre
scribe for a disease according to its name.. There is iui
line of genuine distinction between continued fevers,
that can be relied on. Tliey run insensibly into each
• titer, even (lie most dissimilar of them, and are often
t raceahle to the same cause.”
Die above Is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance
sod 1 would impress on your minds the folly of hunting
up or troubling yourself about a “ name;” if you have
lever, treat it at ouee us hereafter directed, and you
i-ill Or writ instead of any distinctcbaracter being devel
oped, so as to be properly named hy the most scientific.
This assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula
tions or visions of mind, but on experience at the bed
sole nt the sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands of cases
i by myself and others) under a great variety of cir
cumstances, seasons aud climates. Bear this in mind,
and treat at once without regard to name, and rest
assured you wilt soon be freed from all dread of linger
ing and dangerous fevers. But as cases may have be
, one developed before the ‘• Fluid” is given, either by
neglect, or under some other treatment, I will describe
as briefly as possible the proper course to be pursued in
all of the most prominent fevers, though the “ Rules”
and “Synopsis” will be amply sufficient for all those
accustomed to attendance upon tho sick.
Huh s iin jKuUinl In Or observed 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 be sweetened or not at
pleasure.
2d. Patients must bo free from all currents ot air,
(though there should always be free ventilation in the
sick room,) nor attempt to go about while uuder its in
ti itciice.
lit. It must be continued whenever the fever subsides,
nr is evidently passing off'; to be resumed when it
begins to rise again, should such ho the case under any
circumstances.
4th. When the fever begins to subside, putients must
l.s left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should
not be questioned as to their wants or feelings, nor
attempt to converse, read or tukeany exercise whatever,
till their own natural feelings, independent of all extra
neous intlueuces, induce them to rise or speak; nor
should any conversation be allowed in their hearing, in
wiiicli they may feel more or less interested, but he left
quiet to all intents and purposes.
ith. Fluids should ho 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, auy simple decoctions, or teas, either
cold or warm, as parties may prefer or patients desire.
utli. Should patients experience any oppression or
faintness while in the lying posture, so as to occasion a
restlessness alter the fever has passed off, or enough to
uevawiuii 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
breast maybe bathed in cold water; either of which
will give immediate relief.
TABLE OK DOSES,
r children of one year or under, from i! to 8 drops.

VII persons over fifteen considered as adults, for whom
a (eas|MX>nful is a common dose. Old persons do not
require as much ns young, or those in the prime of life;
nor females, as a general rule, as much as males.
There Is no particular care necessary iu giving it to
children —those of ten years of age frequently having
taken full doses ; hut for a little guide, 1 have given the
above table, with the remark that, as a general rule,
children require mure than adults iu proportion.
By observing ttie above directions, the medicine will
lie found agreeable in all of its effects, the expectations
~f the most sanguine realized, aud many perfectly
astonished. My object in being thus particular is, that
the full benefit of the medicine may be obtained, and
not uu account of any actual necessity of such strict ole
-ervanres.
Ulllous or Remittent Fewer.
Give a teasponful of “ Fluid” (see rule Ist) ouce in
two hours, till the fover is evidently passing off; this
constitutes she whole treatment in all pimple cases of
fever, with such observances as are set forth in the
••Rules.” lint should there ho prominent local syrnp
toms, or known local existing causes, they should be
attended to at ouee, and while giving the “Fluid.’*
Bee Synopsis.
If iu auy case the bowels are particularly constipated
r confined, give s cathartic (see auxiliaries) with the
first [airtion ; they must be opened or the fever may rise
again.
Where the fever is very high, pulse ruuuiug 110 or
upwards, aud the patient is uol particularly susceptible
to the influence of medicine—not easily operated on hy
medicine generally—a double dose, or two traspoousful
may bo given at first with advantage, and eveu repeated
in two hours —if it—the pulse—has not been soj'tened,
i bus showing the medicine lias tsken effect.
Bathing the surface with water at an agreeable
temperature, the salino wash, vinegar or spirits aud
“nter, in these difficult cases, will afford relief and aid
the medicine much in taking effect.
Congestive Fewer.
I live two teaspoousful and repeat every two hours till
the pulse becomes more full and soft, then only a tea
spoonful, to be discontinued as the fever subsides. As
tile bowels am generally confined, and it is frequently
very difficult to get medicine to operate in thlw disease,
no time should lie lost to get them open, give some active
cathartic with tlio “Fluid” and repeat as may he necee
iry till it operates: enemas (injections) may also he
ued to ml vantage; also, mustard to the extremities, or
frietlou(rubbing) with the hands or flannel; also, cold
applications to the head. Quinine muy lie added to the
•• Fluid'’ if thought advisable. See Synopsis.
Nervous Fewer, Ty plum, 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 depreeaiou. there Is
no practical nse in separating them—at least so fer as
in v treatment is concerned. In these low fevers, when
fully developed, a little patience will be required; still
imperatively little, as they frequently run weeks under
tfi” common treatuient, while with this hut a tew days
will I* necessary at longest to establish a permanent
convalescence.
Ih* treatment should he cemmeacerf—whieh may
iin ms,! lately fhtlow auy other without detriment—with
e isaspusaful of •• Fluid” every twe hems, till the pulse
U.e .uiss t 011,., laigeriu volume, thea to he continued
ace Iu Six si .1,1,1 hours till tF# fever entirely subsides.
Iu Lad cases, from three to live grains oath of quinine
an,l capsicum (Cayeuui! pepper; or some tonic aud stimu
lant (se j auxiliaries) should be added lo each dose. The
Ixiwcla should he kept gently open, and small portions
of some hepatic should be given occasionally, eveu
though the bowels should tie very loose. The patient
should he sustained hy nourishing and mucilagenons
drinks—such as are in common use iu such cases.—
Where the skin is very dry. s|ionging the surface as di
rected in bilious fever, will Ire found advantageous.
Tonics should be used during convalescence, ill all eases
which have become reduced.
Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lung
or Winter Fever.
tlive a leaspoonful of the “Fluid’’ every two hours,
with a wine-glassful of a strong decoction of ismeset; or
half the quantity may lie given every hour till relieved,
then, at longer intervals, say once in six or eight hours.
The houeset tea should lie given warm till the violent
symptoms are allaysd, or the patieut is relieved; then
cold; lbinentatioiiH, mustard plaster, or something of
the kind, to be applied over the seat of pain; keep (lie
bowels gently open.
Variola, Varlololil, llubcola and Scarla
tina) or Small Pox, Varioloid, Meaalva,
and Scarlet Fever.
As all of these dis-nsesare attended with fever, which
in fact is the most prominent symptom, the treatiueal
differs luie little from thst ofTommnu levers. Remember
never wait to learn the ••name,” w hether it Is one or the
other, or neither, as they all commence with Ji.cer, but
treat it at once; govern the lever and there will he no
trouble; there will It r bill little eruption even in smalt
pox. This, to mostmiuds, is anew idea, and doubt loss
will lie regarded with ridicule by many. I nevertheless
boldly make tlio assertion, (list small pox, ii treated us
I direct, will lie cut short; attended with but little erup
tion ; little or no pitting, amt that there is iw uece/sity of
its muniug its ordinary course. On this I will stake
not only my reputation, blit a,I tlint I hold most dear;
besides, on this subject, I have good authority; that of
Frol'. Watson, previously quoted, lie says, page 874:
*• You may abate tbe force of the eruptive lever, and
keep dowu, it is believed, tbe number oj the pustules by
spline purges, Ac.'’ Here i Hie admission that it limy
lie done. I nave not only proven it mag be., but hue
been done iu numerous cases that occurred im board
ship, tier the account appended.
Hive a teiuqiooutul or more, according to the urgency
of the case, with a dose of sails or cantor oil; repeat the
Fluid ouee in two hours if necessary, until the fever sub
aides—though one or two doses is generally sufficient;
hut it should be giveu and repeated sufficiently to keep
the fever under control. When the throat is affected,
any of the ordinary gargles may he used, anil the
surface bathed, as thought advisable.
In one case, oil the ship Duchesa d'Orleans, tile tongue
and Caucus were so much swollen thst the patient rould
not swallow or apeak, and he was cured hy dropping the
Fluid on his tongue, drop hy drop, till he could swallow,
when it was given in teanpoouful doses every hour, till
all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of
the throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour
ishment in about twelve hours hy the Fluid alone.—
Used to wet the throat frequently, it is doubtless the
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 such readiness, as to seem
to lie of little consequence. A single dose or two of a
teanpoouful. almost invariably giving entire and per
manent relief; no alarm need be entertained, as the
Fluid will arrest it iu a short time. It should he re
peated as long as the fover continues, as in other cases.
The bowels ot course should be 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 aud
soothing effect deprives the labor of much of its pains
and difficulties; it must lie tried to lie appreciated.—
Painful menstruation will be 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; iu short, it is one of the most convenient aud
effectual remedies fur many of the ills of femules, if not
the most so of auy medicine knowu. Its effect is uniform,
relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability
and iritability of the nervous as w ell us the circulatory.
It will not force sleep like opiates, hut it will sooth amt
quiet the system so that one can sleep naturally ami
healthy ; heuee its use iu so many cases.
Synopsis.
To avoid constant repetition, and coudeu.se the treat
ment as much as possible, I give under this head generul
directions for all coses. As the Negative Electric Fluid
will (hangs the condition called fever, or subdue and
control it uuder all circumstances, without regard to the
name it may he or ought to he called, it should he giveu
wherever or whenever it exists; yet it cannot he ex
pected to control all organic or local causes, which,
when such exist, must he removed in order to effect a
permanent cure.
AVhen such indications occur in auy case, they should
be appropriate means, aud those sohuld he giveu while
giving the “Fluid,” and in connection witli it, when
occasion requires, as they will then more readily act,
producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary
time w ill then he lost As tho ’, Fluid” alone w ill sub
due the lever, I call all elßeauxiliary treatment.
If the bowels are costive, given cathartic (Bee auxili
aries) with the first doso, or soon after, and should it
fail to operate in due time, repeat the dose; if uttended
with diarrlnca, 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 bitter herbß,
or, perhaps, cloths wot iu cold water, to the part; if
violent pain in the head, apply cold water, ice water,
if convenient, or some cooling application, and bathe
the feet in hot water; If tho fever is very high, skin
dry and hot, with great suffering, sponge or bathe the
whole surface with water at an agreeable temperature;
“the saline wash,” vinegar and water or spirits and
water, either will afford great relief and aid the medi
cine in taking effect, after which there will he no trou
ble; If tho patient bus been reduced or is much prostra
ted, give tonics and stimulants, particularly in low
fevers, in absence of lever or when indicated; also,
duriug convalescence, when the patient has become re
duced; if there is nausea and vomitiug, that must he
allayed before any medicine will remain on the stomach
to do any good; for this purpose 1 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” aud a cathartic if
necessary; in short, treat all the prouiineut symptoms
as you would under any other circumstances, giving the
“Fluid” at the same time ns directed, aud success will
crown your efforts; iudeed, you cannot realize it till you
have seen, nnd then you will he 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 w hat is used. 1 have found no such necessity
when using the Fluid, and to be fully understood by
all, 1 will name a lew of the different articles of medi
cine 1 have referred to, viz:—
Cathartics.—Articles that purge or operate on the
bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots
or barks, and many pills, autib.iliuus, Ac.; anything
know n to tie good for such purposes.
Hepattr.il.—Anything known to act on the liver
particularly, ]>ortal circulation and secretions generally.
Any of the articles depended on hy the different schools
for this purpose, will auswer when used in connection
with the “Fluid” or while the system is under its in
fluence. And one may cloaise calomel—another, blue
mass—the third, podophyllin—tlie fourth, mandrake
root, and so on; each may take liix choice snd he suc
cessful.
Tonics.—Articles that give time or strength, such
as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. Bone
set or thorough wort 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 the effect.
Stimulants.—Articles that raise or excite the
•yatem. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of the best;
ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., the essences ure all more
or lens stimulating. These are tbe ouly classes necessa
ry iu treatiug lovers, though many others ore generally
used, but the Negative Electric Fluid is a hetier “dia
phoretic,*’ “aaodyue,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and
“ sedative” tbuu knowu iu tho materia medial.
I shall uot tux the reader with a loug list of proofs,
depeudiug muinly ou the results of a trial, and will
only refer to oue instance of success, that on the
Packet ship Duchess D’Orleans.
which cannot tie dossed among ordiusry certificates;
We, tlie undersigned, certify to the following, viz—
We took passage ou the pucketship Duchess d'Orleans,
Capt Hutton, then lyiug in the port of Havre. France,
and bound for New York. She sailed on the Uth of Au
gust, 1861, with over a hundred souls ou hoard, mostly
emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, the small
pox broke out among the eiuigrauts, They were all
treated hy the physician iu charge, Dr. N. W. Sent, with
anew remedy of his own, which be culls Negative Elec
tric Fluid, with which he seemed to have entire control
over the disease, arresting it in a frw hours, and curing
in a very short time.
Duriug the voyage, which lasted thirty-nine days,
there were shout eighty cases of small pox, some tever,
Ac., auJ not a single death. All were cured with unu
sual promptness.
Fretu what we saw duriug said passage, we are fully
couvineed that the uiediciue used hy Dr. Seat ou the oc
casion, iKiasesses inestimable virtues. We uever before
heard or read of febrile affections being controlled with
so much ease, promptness aud rertaiuty, or so little
trouble to the nuree. A crowded ship, a long passage,
small pox and fever ou board, and nota death! The

J. S. PEMBERTON & CO.,
HAVE received the appointment from the proprietor
for tlie sole agency of
Woodman’s Cherry Expectorant,
the medicine that has created such an excitement at the
North among the Physieians, and lias been pronounced
by all who have used it ns being far superior to any
Cherry Pectoral. Woodman’s Cherry Expectorant con
tains the active medical qualities of the Yellow .lesauiine,
tho pure decoction of Wild Cherry Bark, and many other
valuable Ingredients that render it far better than any
other Cough Medicine in this country.
RECOMMENDATIONS.
Nxw OULEAKS. April 9, 1855.
Dear Sir —The public generally arc fully aware of ilie
thousands of remedies for Diseased Lungs, under tlie titles
of Sarsaparillas, Fills. Plasters. Liniments, Ac., that are
daily brought to their notice through the newspapers liy
way of advertisements. My object in writing this noto
for publication, is to induce the public, or at least those
who are afflicted, to use oue that contains articles of
Heal Use in Pulmonary Diseases. lam conscious that in
so doing, 1 inn acting most tinprofessionally, and deroga
torily to the interests of Medical Science anil the regular
Practitioners of Mediciue. 1 refer to Woodman's Cherry
Expectorant, which is a scientific remedy that I have
used with more success than any of tho usual prescrip
tions used tiy Physicians.
J. M. Maitland, M. D.
Gallatin, Miss., May 1, 1855.
0. 0. Woodman —Dear Sir; 1 have given your Cherry
Expectorant a fair trial ami am well pleased with its ef
fects; better than any other article I over met with. I
would he pleased to have you send me half a dozen bot
tles liy the bearer. Respectfully,
\V. M. Mason, M. |>.
This preparation has attained a wide celebrity from
the universal success which lias attended its use. For
coughs, colds, and in fact, any pulmonary complaint)!,
this medicine, from its peculiar properties us a dissolvent
and its soothing power to all irritations of the throat,
will probably he preferred to any other offered to the
public. As an appetizer, or dyspeptic remedy, it will
also he I'ohikl excellent, its natural and genial warmth
keeping the digestive powers in proper tone.
Remember that this is tlio 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. Every bottle is warranted
to give satisfaction or the money refunded. We guaran
