lUmarki on fevers In General*
On this subject I wish to he fully understood. llv the
term ‘‘lovers,” i comprehend all febrile affections to
which the human frame is subject, including small pox
aud other eruptive fevers; but as they arise by a grout
variety of causes, aud in quite dissltnihtr constitutions
and habits, 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, *c.
To snow that I am not wholly uloue In the opinion I
advauce, I quote from the celebrated Prof. T. Watson,
of Kiug’s College, London, whose work on the •• Princi
ples aud Practice of Physic” is a textbook in luauy of
our medical colleges, and consequently staiulanla ulhority.
Mu page S:U, hosays:—“We hear continually, both in
aud uut of the profession, different species of fever spo
ken of By ti;e public, Typhus fever, Ilrain fever,
unions fever, Putrid fever, Low fever. Nervous fevor,
Ac. Aud systematic writers are to the full os particular:
‘lnonus fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Uastro-Knteric, aud
so forth. Now, admitting that fever shows itself under
various forms, 1 nut persuaded that tho effect upon the
mind of all this sub-division, is bad and hurtful. It
encourages a disposition, already too prevalent, to pie
t ribe for a disease uccordiug to its name. There Is no
Hue of genuine distinction betweeu continued levers,
that can be relied on. They run insensibly into each
•111.11, even the most dissimilar of them, and are often
Ireenable to the same cause.”
Tim above I* a great fact, one worthy of remembruuco
and I would imprest 011 your minds the folly of hunting
II p or troubling yourself about a ‘•name;'’ if you have
fever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and you
mill be welt instead of auy distinctcharacter being devel
oped, So as to be properly named by the most scientific.
This ussertiou is uo hypothesis based on closet specula
tions or vlsious of mind, but on experience ut the bed
aide of the sick, iu hundreds, aye, thousands of cases
(by myself and others) under a great variety of cir
cumstances, seuaomt and climates. Bear this in mind,
aud treat at once without regard to name, and rest
assured you will soon be freed from all dread of litiger
-lug and dangerous fevers. But as cases may have bo
nne developed Iwlore tbs ** fluid” is given, either by
neglect, or under some other treatment, I will describe
as briefly us possible the proper course to be pursued in
all of the most prominent fevers, though tho “ Itules”
and “ Synopsis” will lie amply sufficient for nil those
accustomed to attendance upon the sick.
Hulft impmiatU to be observed in all cases in using llie
negative Electric Fluid.
Ist. It should lie given in three or four times its own
quantity of water, and may be sweetened or not at
pleasure.
fd. Patients must be free from all currents of air,
(though there should always bo free ventilation in tlie
sick room,) nor attempt to go about while under its in-
Huence.
dd. It must be continued whenever the lever subsides,
or ia evidently passing oft'; to be resumed when it
brgius to rise again, should such l>* the ease under an;
circumstances.
4th. When the fever begins to subside, patients must
be left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should
uut he questioned as to their wants or feelings, nor
attempt to converse, read or take any exercise whatever,
till their oum natural feelings, independent of all extra
neous influences, induce, them to rise or speak ; uor
should any conversation be allowed in their hearing, in
which they may feel more or loss interested, but be left
quiet to all intents and purposes.
dth. fluids should be allowed, while giving It as
plentifully, and as long as the patient desires aud uo
longer; they may consist of cold water, mucilaginous
drinks, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, either
cold or warm, us parties may prefer or patients desire.
bth. Should patients experience any oppression or
laiutuesa while in Ilia lying posture, so as to occasion a
irstlessuess alter the fever has passed off, or enough to
m i ssion them to apeak of it, they should have a little
wine, toddy, camphor, hartshorn, lemounde 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.

Congentive Fever.
(live two teaspoousful and repeat every two hours till
the pulse becomes more full and soil, then only a tea
•poouful, to be discontinued as the fever subside!. As
I ho bowels are generally confined, and it is frequently
*ery 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 be
lined to advantage; also, mustard to the extremities, or
friction (t übbing) with the hands or flannel; also, cold
spplicatious to the head. Quinine may be added to the
Fluid” if thought advisable. See Syuopsis.
Nrrvoua Fever, Typhus, Ship and Putrid
or Spotted Fever.
As these fevers are all of one character, differing
totinly in degree, being all of a low grade, the pulse
small and wiry, with a general great depression, there is
110 practical use in separating them—at least so far as
my treatment Is concerned. In these low fevers, when
lully developed, a little patience will be required; still
comparatively little, as they frequently run weeks under
the common treatment, while with this but a few dsys
will lie aecesssry st longest to establish a permanent
1 wivaleacence.
Tbs treatment should be commenced—whieh niny
immedlntely follow nny other without detriment—with
s ‘eatiaientill es “ Fluid” every two hours, till the pulse
Wveomes fuller or larger in volume, then to bo eontianod

In bad coses, front three to five grains each ol </uinme

bowels should be kept gently open, and email pdrtlnn*
ol muio hepal, c should Ihj given uccaslomiily, oven
though the buwels should be very loose. The patient
should be sustained by nourishing and mucilagciioun
drinks—such as are in common use in auch cases.—
Where the skiu ia very dry, sponging the surface its di
rected iu bilious fever, will be found advantageous.
Tonics should he used during convalescence, iu all cases
which have become reduced.
Pneumonia, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lung
or Winter Fever.
(Jit’ea teaspoonful of the “Fluid” every iwo hours,
with a wine-glassful of a strong decoction of bouesot; or
ball the quantity may be given every hour tilt relieved,
theu, at longer intervals, say once in six or eight hours.
The boneset ten should he given warm till the violeuL
symptoms an; allay oil, or the patient is relieved; then
cold; fomentations, mustard plaster, or something of
the kind, to iw applied over the scat of pain; keep the
bowels gently open.
Varloin, Varioloid, Uiibeols and hcarln
tliia; nr Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles,
and Scarlet Fever.
As all of these diseases are attended with fever, which
in fset is the most prom incut symptom, the treatment
ilith-rs lute little from that of common levels. Remember
never wait to learn the name,” w hether it is one or the
other, or neither, as they all commence with fever, but
treat it nt once; govern the fever ami there w ill be no
trouble; there will be but little, eruption even iu small
pox. This, tomost miuds, is anew idea, ami doubtless
will be regarded with ridicule by many. 1 nevertheless
: boldly make the assertion, that small (six, if treated ns
! 1 direct, will be cat short; attended with but little erqje
tion; little or im pitting, and that there is no necessity of
its running its ordinary course. On this I will stukc
not only my reputation, Imt a I that I hold most dear;
besides, on this subject, I have good authority; that of
l’rof. Watson, previously quoted. He says, page 874:
“You may abate the force of the eruptive lever, and
keep down, it is believed, the number of the pustules by
spline purges, Ac.” Here Is the admission tliut it may
be done. 1 nave not only proven it uuiy be, but has
been iluuo in numerous esses that occurred on boil'll
ship. See the account appended.
(five a teaspoonful or more, according to tlie urgency
01 the case, with u dose of salts or castor oil; repent the
Fluid once in two hours if necessary, until the fever sub
sides—though one or two doses is generally sufficient;
but it should lie given unit repeated sufficiently to keep
the lever under control. When the throat is affected,
any of the ordinary gargles may be used, and the
surface bathed, as thought advisable.
In one ease, on the ship Duchessd ijrleaus. the longue
and fuucus were so much swollen that the patient could
not swallow or speak, ami he was cured by dropping the
Fluid on his tongue, drop by drop, till he could swallow ,
when it was given iu teaspoonful doses every hour, till
all alarmiug symptoms disappeared. The swelling of
the throat whs reduced so us to euiiblo him to take nour
ishment in about twelve hours by tlie Fluid alone.—
Used to wet the throut frequently, it is doubtless the
best gargle in all such cases.
Puerperal or Childbed Fever.,
This heretofore painful, dangerous ami alarming
malady to which the mother is liable, will yield to the
Negative Klectric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem
to be of little consequence. A single dose or two of a
teaspoonful, almost invariably giving entire and per
manent relief; no alarm need lie entertained, as the
Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should he re
peated as long as the lover continues, ns in other eases.
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 and suffering. Jt
is to iu form them of the happy effect of the Fluid in
many of their triuls. In child-birth, its relaxing and
soothing effect deprives the labor of much of its pains
and difficulties; it must be tried to be appreciated.—
Painful menstruation w ill be relieved at once by a com
mon dose ami retiring. Restlessness, nervous irritability,
or a cold taken at a delicate time, is easily relieved by
ilsuse; iu short, it is one of tlie most convenient and
effectual remedies for many of the ills of females, if not
the most so of any medicine known. Jis effect is uniform,
relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability
and iritability of the nervous as 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 in so many cases.
Synopsis.
To avoid constant repetition, mid condense flic treat
ment us much as possible, 1 give under this head general
directions for nil cases. As the Negative Klectric Fluid
will change the condition called tever, or subdue and
control it under all circumstances, without regard to the
name it may be 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 eiisl, must lie removed iu order to effect R
permanent cure.
When surh indications occur in any case, they should
he appropriate means, and these sohuld be given while
giving the “ Fluid,” ami in connection with it, when
occasion requires, as they will then more readily act,
producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary
time will then be lout. 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 first dose, or soon after, anil should it
fail to operate iu due time, repeat the dose; if attended
with diarrhoea, give something known to he 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 herbs,
or, pci-lisps, cloths wet in cold water, to the (.art; if
violent (min in the head, apply cold water, ice water,
if convenient, or some cooling application, aud bathe
tlie feet in hot water; if the fever is very high, skin
dry anil 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 ami aid the medi
cine in taking effect, after which there will lie no trou
ble; if the patient has been reduced or is much prostra
ted, give tonics and stimulants, particularly in low
fevers, iu 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, w ill remain on tho stomach
to do auy 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” aud a cathartic if
necessary; in short, treat all (lie prominent symptoms
as you would uuder any other cireumstances, giving the
“Fluid” at the same time ss directed, aud success will
crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till you
have seen, and then you will be astonished at the case
with which you can control all febrile excitement.
Auxiliaries.
Parties may feel at a loss to know wind is meant by
cathartics, Ac., as physicians are usually particular
about what is used. 1 have found ho such necessity
when using the Fluid, and to he fully understood by
all, I will name a lew of the different articles of medi
cine I have referred to, viz
Cnt battles.—Articles that purge or operate on the
bowels, such as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots
or barks, aud many pills, autibilious, Ac.: anything
knowu to be good for such purposes.
Hepatic*.—Anything known to act 011 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, podophyllln—the fourth, mandrake
root, and so on; each may take bis choice ami be suc
cessful.
Tonics.— Articles that give tone or strength, such
as quinine, various barks, roots anil bitter herbs. Bone
set or tlioroughwort is one of the best used in fevers.
Aatringent*.—Such as check tho action ol the
bow els. 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
system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is one of the best;
ginger, spirits, hartshorn, Ac., the essences are all more
or less stimnlatiug. These are the only classes necessa
ry in treating fevers, though many others are generally
used, but the Negative Klectric Fluid is a better “dia
phoretic,*’ •• anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and
“sedative” than known iu tho materia median.

depending mainly on the results of a trial, and w ill

We, the undersigned, certify to the following, viz—
We took passage on the packctsliip Duchess d’Orleans,
Capt liuttuu. then lying In the poit of Havre. France,
and bound for New York. She sailed on the Belt of Au
gust, 1861, with over a hundred souls on lioard, mostly
emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, the small
pox broke out amoug the emigrants, They were all
treated bv the phyeician in charge. Dr. N. W. Feat with
a nevv remedy of his own. which he calls Negative Klec
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.
Durtug the voyage, which lasted thirty-nine iluva,
there were about eighty cases of small pox, some fever
Ac., and not a single death. All were cured with unu
sual promptness.
From what we saw during said passage, we are fully
convinced that the medicine used by Dr. Seat on the oc
casion, possesses inestimable virtues. We never before
heard or read of febrile affections being controlled with
so much ease, promptness anil certainty, or so little
trouble to the nurse. A crowded ship, a long passage,
small pox and fever on board, and not n death! The’
fact speaks for itself.

Dear Bir—The public generally are fully aware es the
thousands of remedies for Diseased Lungs, under the titles
of .Sarsaparilla*, Pills, l’lnsli rs. Liniments, Ac., that are
daily brought to their notice through the newspapers by
way of advertisements. My object in writiug this note
for publication, is to induce tlie public, or at least those
who are afflicted, to use one that contains articles of
Ileal Use. In Fulmonary Diseases, lam conscious that in
so doing, I am acting moat linprof'ssinnally, and dcroga
torily to the interests of Medical .>cieucc and the regular
Practitioners of Medicine. 1 refer to Woodman's Cherry
Kxpectorant, which is a scientific remedy (hat I have

This preparation has attained a wide celebrity- from
tlie universal successuliicli has attended its use. For
coughs, colds, and iu fact, any pulmonary complaints,
this medicine, from its peculiar properties us a dissolvent
hihl its soothing power to all irritations of the throat
