SHELLS OF GREEN PEAS.

A MEMBER of the Chemical Society OF

Green Peas, Which are a, preient thrown away

The prooefs is to pour fix gallons of water
on one buihel ct the ihells Of peas, and boil the
whole until the ihells are inhpid to the tate.
Pour off the water which will be very fwest,
into clean tub or key, and add to it point OF
yesa, and two ounces Of ginger in powder. In
a ihort time fermentation will take place, and
when it is complete the bee, will be fit for ule.
Beer obtained in this manner is very clear,
tate, when poured into tumbler bears hne
beed, is fuperior to the com non molaiies beer,
and is not inferior 10 mead.
One buihel OF The fhells Of peas will make &c.
veral dozen bottles of beer. The beer ihould
be put into hrong bottles, which ihould be kept
in cool cellar, and the corks fhould be feeured
with wire. Ii the cellar is not cool, the bottles
will buff with an erploGon, as the author Of

hands of the conquerers, who IN other
rclpe6ts took but few priloners. The
Turks and Englifh ALTO took feveral
fhips on the coat of Paleitine, which
had been fent from Egypt with ammu-
milton and military flores.
Previous to the arrival of the two
above mentioned coufierS, two Tarters
arrived with the news of this victory on
the 9Th inf. from PaIeltine. The Porte
having of late been frequently impofed
upon with falfe news, thofe Tarters
were aflured, with threats, that it would
colt them their lives, if the intelligence
they brought was falfe. The Tarters
readily fubmitted to this, adding, that
they were fure that the confirmation of
the news they had brought would i'm
mediately follow. i-r-
The Grand Vizier fets out from
hence on the 10th inf. The Selim, of
40 guns, carries him to the coat Of
Ala, with fquadron of twenty-one
ihips of the line and two fri
gates. The rendezvous of the troop
whom the Grand Vizier will farther
take with him, is to be at Scutari.--
Gen. Kochler, Maj. Franklin, and 9th.

A dreadful fire broke out here few

" A civil war has broken out in Hill
PAMELA. will not attempt to detail
the caufes, that led to this event it is
fuhicient to know that it exits, and is
conducted with brutal ferocity. The
favourable reception given to the En-
glih by rouaaint, is the plea urged by
Rigaud in defence of his conduct. He
accules the former with an intention of
delivering up the ifland to them, or at
leait- of putting ii under their protec-
ton. The real objea of contention is
power, The one being relolved TO pre-
ferve the fupreme command, the other
equally deiirous to poiefs it.
When Hedouville was ient off TO
France, he wrote Rigaud, and directed
him to aHume the command ihould he
oblerve Touiaaint was about TO take
any ieps to render the ifland indepen-
dent. From that moment Rigaud en-
deavoured, by means of his agents, TO
gain over the feveral chiefs to his par
ty and when he believed the crifis
was arrived in which he might declare
himfelf openly, he marched a body of
troops to Petit Goave, which was taken,
delivered up to pillage, and mott of the
whites maiIacred. The itandard Of
revolt was now reared. He expected
at Port.au- Prince the fame fcene would
take place, the chief of which was gain
ed, and he counted upon the exertions
of his adhercnts at Gonaives, Port.de-
Paix, Mole St. Nicholas, Jean Reabel
and other places. Mott of thefe plots
have been diicovered, and all of them
prevented, except at the Mole, where
a regiment whichwas ordered to march,
expelled the commandment, and took
poGellion Of the town and forts. The
perfons Of the inhabitants and property
have hitherto been re(petted. The
fails and rudders of the veaels which
lie in port were taken ON ihore tho
it is Eaid they have lince been reltored
to them. An army of 5000 men is on
its march to that place, and as the gar
rifon is but frnall, it may foon be redu-
ced. After the capture of Petit Coave,
party advanced as far as Grand CO.
ave, and took pofeilion of block
houfe--they are now furrounded by a
