.tKvLki'lVE ELECTRIC FLUID, Prepared by N. W. Seal, 31. 11. ea.Niis why it should l> used iaftaut of any other treat ment in all Febrile affections : I at.— Economy of Time. —Ah only one.-seuenth ..l the ordinary time is requirial to effect a cure. ‘ld.—blcoitomy of Moßfye-Aii it costs but one dollar. drd.-Kcuiiumy of Keeling. —As it saves the suffering of a long sickness uud the consequent treat ment; the annoyance of taking nauseating doses of medicine, their disagreeable operation, and tile palu of mug courtooiuent; but little of the Hui l being uecessury, and that pleasant ill its effects. 4 111.— Economy of Thought.— -As when known, it will remove all dread and anxiety at present listing, respecting febrile affections; particularly while a dear friuiul is sick. 5 Ml.— Kconomy of Health.—As the system in not reduced, and consequently racked; nor is the fever subject to l followed by chronic disease. tit h.—Economy of hlfe.-A* the cure is effected before and without reducing the patient, consequently ii moving, in n corresponding degree, all danger of u fatal termination. Other reasons might be kdded, but these are deemed Htilllotent to satisfy alt classes and persons in all condi tions of life. The above reasons are more particularly applicable to the immediate treatment on the ilrst attack, but will apply wit ii equal force to cases which have been subject i and to or Imvu become reduced, corresponding of course ‘n t lie nature of the case at the time ills Ii ret adminis tered. As this remedy gives so prompt, eifoctiml and perma nent nlii-r, in all ordinary casus, when used soon alter ihe attack, persons can scarcely realize that they had been really much sick, and very naturally conclude they wen not attacked with fever, uud if so, “it was trilling -a little cold, which gave alarm—it could have been nol lung of consequence—it would have passed off with out anything—that medicine had noeffect,” The general impression on the subject of fetor is Mich, that thoughts not unlike the above follow the cure of a common case n- naturally as men think at all; and it is not until The individual has witnessed inaay eases that lie can fully .ealize the truth; and even then ho may conclude them ail very trifling cnees, which would liuve readily yielded to nny simple medicine, yet persons, though they have bt en llius successful in perhaps hundreds of cases, must expect that there will cases occur where there is siime organic ur local cause so great as to require particular attention, or though suceesatul in reducing the fever, it will again rise as the intiueuce of the “ Fluid’’ passes off, as tiie exciting cause may still exist. It is to guard against disappointment in suen coses that 1 have given and frequently refer to what I have called u “synopsis.” Remarks ou Fevers In General* On this suiiject I wish to be fully understood, By the luriii “fevers,” I comprehend all febrile affections to which the human frame is subject, including small pox and other eruptive fevers; hut as they arise by a great variety of causes, and in quite dissimilar constitutions and habit h, they of course differ considerably in their development and exhibit a variety of forms or typos; 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 ill tlm pulse, sense of heat, dryness of the skin, debility, Ac. To snow that l am not wholly alone in the opinion I advance, I quote from the celebrated Prof. T. Watson, ul King s College, London, whose work on the “ I'rinci oleii and Practice of l’hysic” is a text book in many of our medical colleges, aud consequently standardautharily. On page 834, hosays:—“Wo hear continually, both in Slid out of tlie protession, different species of fever spo ken of. liy the public, Typhus Fever, limit! Fever, lliiious Fever, l’utrid Fever, Low Fever, Nervous Fever, .Vc. And systematic writers are to the full us particular: Mucous Fever, Ataxic, Adynamic, Uustro-Kntorlc, aud so forth. Now, admitting that fever shown itself under various forms, I am persuaded that the effect upon the mind of ull 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, that ran he relied on. They rmi insensibly iuto each other, even the most dissimilar of them, anil ure often ti ai cable to the same cause.” The above is a great fact, one worthy of remembrance and 1 would impress ou your miuds the folly of hunting up or troubling yourself about u “name;” if you have fever, treat it at once as hereafter directed, and you will be well instead of any distiiietcliaracter being devel oped, so as to lie properly named by the most scientific. This assertion is no hypothesis based on closet specula tions nr visions of miud, but on experience at the bed side of the sick, in hundreds, aye, thousands of cases (by myself and others) under a great variety of cir iiiinstances, seasons and climates. Dear this in miud, uud tieat at once without regard to name., and rest assured you will soon be freed from all dread of linger ing and dangerous fevers, ltut as cases may have be come developed before the “ Fluid” is given, either liy neglect, or under some other treatment, I will describe as briefly as possible the proper courso to he pursued in ull of the most promlneut fevers, though tho “ Rules” and “ Synopsis” will oo amply suftleiont for all those accustomed to attendance upon the sick. Kales important to be. observed in aU cates in using the Negative. Electric Fluid. Ist. it should be given in three or four tiuios its own quantity of water, and may he sweetened or not at pleasure. 3d. Patients must he free from ail currents of air, (though there should always bo free ventilation in the sick room,) nor attempt to go übout while under its iu lluouco. 3d. It must bo continued whenever the fover subsides, pr is evidently passing oft'; to be resumed when it begins In rise again, should such be the cuse under any circumstances. 4th. When tho fover begins to subside, patients must be left perfectly quiet; free from all excitement; should not bo questioned as to their wants or feeliugs, nor attempt to convorse, road or take any exercise whatever, till their ywn natural feelings, independent of all 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, hut bo left qiiiel to all intents and purposes. Mb. Fluids should be allowed, while giving it as plentifully, and as long as the patient desires and uo longer; they may consist of cold water, mucilaginous drinks, lemonade, any simple decoctions, or teas, either void or warm, as parties may prefer or patients desire. lith. Should patients experience nny oppression or faintness while in the lying posture, so as to occasion a ustlessiiess after the fover 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, giuger, or some other stimulant; or the face ami breast may he bathed iu cold water; either of which will give immediate relief. TABLU OF DUSKS, r children of one year or under, from 3 to 8 drops. “ over l and under 3 years, “ Sto 16 “ “ *• a “ 5 “ “ 6 “ 10 “ “ 20 to 50 “ 8 “ 16 half to a teaspoonful. All persons over fltteeu considered as adults, for whom „ tc.Aspooufui is a common dose. Old persons do not require us 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; hut for a little guide, 1 liuve given the alsive table, with the remark tliut, aa a general rule, ■ hildreu require more than adults iu proportion. liy observing the above directions, the medicine will be fouud agreeable in all of its effects, tho expectations of the most sanguine realized, aiul many perfectly astonished. My object in being thus particular is, that the full benefit of the medicine may lie obtained, aud not on account of any netted necessity of such strict ob servances. lliiious or Remittent Fever. (Jive a teusponful of “ Fluid” (see rule Ist) once in two hours, till the fever is evidently passing off; this constitutes the whole treatment in ull simple cases of fever, with such observances as are set forth ill 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,” flee SyuO|HUS. if in any case the bowels are particularly constipated or confined, give a eat hurtle (see auxiliaries) with the first portion; they muat 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 inlinenee of medicine—not easily operated on by medicine generally—a double dose, or two teoapooiisful may he given at first with advantage, and even repeated in two liuurn —if it—the pulse—hits not lieeu softened, thus shewing the medicine has taken effect. Bathing the surface with water at ail agreeable temperature, the saline wash, vinegar or spirits aud water, in those difficult cases, will afford relief and aid the medicine much in taking effect. Congestive Fever. Uivetwo teaspoonsful and repeat every two houre till the pulse becomes more full aud soft, then only a tea spoonful, to be discontinued as the fever subside!. As tlie bowels are generally confined, and it Is frequently vary difficult to get medicine to operate In tlili disease, uo time should he lost to get tiieni open, give some active cathartic with tlie “ Fluid” and repeat as may be neces sary till it operates; enemas (injections) may also lie used to advantage; also, mustard to tlie extremities, or frietion(rubbing) with the bands or flannel; also, eold applications to the head. Quinine may he added to tlie “ Fluid” if thought advisable. See Synopsis. Nervous Fevrr, Typhus, Ship and Putrid or Spotted Fever. As these fevers are all of one character, differing mainly in degree, being ull of a low grade, tho pulse small and wiry, with a general great 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 the common treatment, while with this but a few days wilt he necessary at longest to establish a permanent convalescence. The treatment should be commenced—which may immediately follow suy other without detriment with a teaspooeful of “ Fluid” every two houre, till the pules become, tullur or larger in volume, then to be continued ace Tn ill er eight houre till toe fever entirely subsides. Iu bad yiuij from Uimoto five grains each of quinine aud capsicum ,Cayenne pepper) or sonic tonic and stimu lant (see auxiliaries; should be added to each dose. The buWels should lie kept gently open, and small portions of some hepatic should be given occasionally, otcu though the boWols should bo very loose. The patient should be sustained by nourishing uud mucilogeuous drinks—sucli as are iu cumuioii use in such casus.— Where tho skin is very dry, spougiug the surface us di rected in bilious fever, will be found advantageous. Tonics should be used during convalescence, iu ail oases which have become reduced. Pueuiuoata, Typhoid Pneumonia, Lung or Winter Fever. (Jive a teaspoonful of the “Fluid” every two hours, witli a wine-glassful of a strong decoction of boticset; or half the quantity may be given every hour till relieved, then, at longer intervals, say ones in six or eight hours. Tho boneset tea should be giveu warm till the violent symptoms are allayed, or tho 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 open. Variola, Varioloid, Rubeola uml Scarla tina; or Small Pox, Varioloid, Measles, and Scarlet Fever. As all of these diseases are attended with fever, which iu fact is the most prominent symptom, the treatment differs hue little from tliut of common fevers. Remember never wait to luurn the “name.,” whether it is one or tlie other, or neither, as tiiey ull commence with fever, but treat it at once; govern the fever and there will be uo trouble; there will bo but little eruption even iu sola)] pox. This, to most minds, is n new idea, ami doubtless will be regarded with ridicule by many. I nevertheless boldly make tbe assertion, that small pox, if treated as 1 direct, will be, cut short; attended with but little erup tion; little ur no pitting, and tliut there is no neceesity of its running its ordinary course. Un this I will stake not only my reputation, but a 1 that 1 hold most dear; besides, on this subject, I havogood authority; that of Prof. Watson, previously quoted, lie says, page 874: Vou may abate the loroe of tlie eruptive level, and keep down, It is believed, the number of the pustules by spline purges, Ac.” Here is tlie admission that it may be done, i nave not only proven it may be, but has been done iu numerous cases that occurred on board ship. .See the account appended. (Jive a teaspoohl'ul or more, according to tlie urgency of tlie case, with u dose of salts or castor oil; repeat the Fluid onco in two hours If necessary, until the feversub sides—though one or two doses is generally sufficient; but it slwiuld be given and repeated sufficiently to keep the fever under control. When tho throat is affected, any of tlie ordinary gargles may be used, and tlie surface bathed, as thought advisable. In one case, on tlie ship Duchessd’Orleans, the tongue aud fauciis were so much swollen that the patient could nut swallow or speak, and lie was cured by dropping the Fluid ou his tongue, drop by drop,till he could swallow, when it was given iu tcuspoouful doses every hour, till all alarming symptoms disappeared. The swelling of tho throat was reduced so as to enable him to take nour ishment in about twelve hours by the Fluid alone.— Used to wet the throat frequently, it is doubtless the best yargle. iu all such cases. Puerperal or Childbed Fever., This heretofore painful, dangerous and alarming malady to which tlie mother is liable, will yield to the Negative Electric Fluid with such readiness, as to seem to be of littlo consequence. A single dose or two of a teuspoouful, almost invariably giving entire aud per manent relief; no alarm need be entertained, as tbe Fluid will arrest it in a short time. It should be re peatigl ns long as the lover continues, as in other cases. The bowels of 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 iu many of their trials. In child-birth, its relaxing and soothing effect deprives tho labor of much of its pains and difficulties; it must ho 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; iu short, it is ouo of the most conveuieut aud effectual remedies lor many of the ills of females, if not tlie most so of any medicine known. Its effect is uniform, relaxing the whole system, removing all excitability aud iritability of the nervous as well as tlie circulatory. It will not force sleep like opiates, hut it will sodth and quiet the system so that one can sleep naturally and healthy; hence its use in so many cases. Synopsis. To avoid constant repetition, and condense tile treat ment as much as possible, 1 give under this head general directions for all cases. As tho Negative Klectrie Fluid will change tlie condition called fever, or subdue and control it under all circumstances, without regard to the name it may be or ought to be called, it should bo 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 iu order to effect a permanent cure. When sucli judications occur iuany case, they should he appropriate means, and those soliuhl bo given while giving tlie “Fluid,” and in connection with it, wiien occasion requires, as they will then more readily act, producing more general effect, besides no unnecessary time will then be lost As tho ‘, Fluid” alone will sub due the fever, I call all else auxiliary treatment. If tlie bowels are costive, give u cathartic (see auxili aries) witli the first dose, or soon after, aud should it fail to operate in due time, repeat the dose; if attended witli 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 paiii.or inflammation, apply some stimulating liniment, a mustard plaster, a blister, fomentations of bitter herbs, or, perhaps, cloths wet iu cold water, to the part; if violent pain in tho head, apply cold water, ice water, if convenient, or seine cooling application, and batlio tlie feet in hot water; if tlie fever is very high, skin dry aud hot, witli great suffering, sponge or batlio tlie 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 tlie medi cine iu taking effect, after which there will be uo trou ble ; if tho patient lias been reduced or is much prostra ted, give tonics ami stimulants, particularly iu low fevers, iii absence of fever or when indicated; also, during convalescence, when tlie patient has become re duced; if there is nausea and vomiting, that must bo allayed before any medicine will remain on the stomach to do any good; for this purpose 1 generally give some gentle emetic to cleanse tile stomach; warm water, if given plentifully, will answer every purpose; when the stomach has settled, give tlie •• Fluid” and a cathartic if necessary; iu short, treat all the prominent symptoms as you would under any other circumstances, giving the “ Fluid” at tho same time as directed, and success w ill crown your efforts; indeed, you cannot realize it till you have seen, aud then you will bo astouislied at the ease witli 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. 1 have found no sucli necessity when using the Fluid, and to be fully understood by all. I will name a lew of the different articles of medi cine 1 have referred to, viz:— Cat l>n rtics. —Articles that purge or operate ou the bowels, sucli as castor oil, salts, senna, any of the roots or barks, ami many pills, uutibiUuus, Ac.; anything kuowu to be good fur sucli purposes. Hepatics.—Anything known to act outlie 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 tlie “Fluid” or while tlie system is under its iu ttuonce. And one may choose calomel—another, blue mass—the third, pudophyllin—the fourth, mandrake root, and so on; each may take his choice and be suc cessful. Tonics.—Articles thatgive tone or strength, such as quinine, various barks, roots and bitter herbs. Roue 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 astringeuts, which have the effect. Stimulants.—Articles that raise or excite the system. Capsicum (Cayenne pepper) is oue of the best; ginger, 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 Klectrie Fluid is a bettor •• dia phoretic,” “anodyne,” “diuretic,” “relaxant” and “sedative” than known iu the materia medico. I shall not tux 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 the Pncketahlp Duchess D’Orlenns. which cannot he classed among ordinary certificates: We, the undersigned, certify to the following, viz— We took passage on the paeketship Duchess d’Orleaus, Cupt Mutton, then lying in the port of Havre, France, and bound for New York. She sailed on the 9th of Au gust. 18.il, with over a hundred souls ou board, mostly emigrants- A few days after leaving Havre, the small POX broke out among the emigrants, They were all treated by the physician in charge, Dr. N. W. Seat, with anew remedy of his 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 the voyage, which lasted thirty-ulue days, there were about eighty cases of small pox, some fever, Ac., and not a single death. All were cured with unu sual prompt uess. Frsm wliat we saw during said passage, we are fully convinced that the medicine lined by Dr. Seat ou tho oc casion, possesses inestimable virtues. We never befora heard or read of febrile affections being controlled with so much ease, promptness and certainty, or so little trouble to the nurse. A crowded ship, a long passage, small pox and fever on board, and not a death! Tho fact speaks for itself. Signed, K. I*. s’ vital, 84 Pearl st reet. New York. K. G.Fabßi, “ “ “ J. A.
