i DISCOURSES ON DAVILA. NO. XX. —CONTINUED Faille enfant, quide Guise adorait les caprices iudoot on ignorait les vertus et les vices. FRANCIS lid, in this year, ij6o, issued a pro clamation concerning the affairs of the na tion, and declared that he had resolved to all'em ble at Kontainbleau,all the Princes and the Nota bles of his kingdom, in order to take their advice concerning the urgent neceflities of the state. He granted to all his fubjetfls full liberty to come therein person or by deputies, or to lend memo rials to lay open their grievances, with promifc to give them a favorable hearing, and to grant all their requests as far as equity and reason •would permit. The real intention of the Guises at this time, was to take vengeance of their rivals : but to conceal thisdefign under the most profound djf limulation, until a favorable moment fliould ar rive, to carry it into execution. A series of re finement in artifice, was pra&ifed to put off their the Prince de Conde, the Conitable de Montmorenci, the Admiral Coligni, and all the others ot their party : at the fame time that ar rangements were made in all the Provinces, and troops were allembled about the court, under commanders who were in its confidence. About this time died the Chancellor Olivier, deitroyed, as was reported, by chagrin at the cruelties pratftifed at Amboife, and was succeeded by Michel de L'Hopital, who united to a pro found erudition, a confum mate experience in bu- linefs. To show the universal prevalence of emulation and rivalry, of jealousy and envy, not only be tween opposite parties, but among individuals of the fame party, it is necessary to observe here, that De L'Hopital, notwithftaiuling his genins, so penetrating and so fruitful in resources, was elevated, with great difficulty to this eminent dig nity by the Queen-mother, in opposition to the Guises, who infilled long for Louis de Morvilli eis. Catharine began to dread the too great elevation of the Guises, and wished to confer this important office on a fubjed; entirely devoted to her interests. At the aflembly of the Notables at Fontain bleau, were found the chiefs of both parties, ex cepting the Princes of Bourbon, one of whom, however, the King of Navarre, sent his secretary La Sague. After the customary speeches of the King, Queen, Chancellor, Duke of Guise and Cardinal de Lorrain, Coligni arose, approached the King, and presented him a paper, faying that it was a petition of those of the reformed religi on, who had inftruified him to pretest it to his Majesty, founded on the faith of edi&s by which he had permitted all his fubjedts to lay open their grievances. He added, that although it was not fi'gned by any one, yet if his Majesty ihould or der it, one hundred and fifty thousand men were ready to fubferibe it. The petition demanded only liberty of conscience, and to have churches for public woritaip in the cities. The Cardinal de Lorrain, with 31l that impetuosity, which, the natural vehemence of his temper added to the ardor of his spiritual zeal and temporal am bition, inspired, called it seditious, insolent, raib, and heretical : and added, that if to intimidate the youth of the King, Coligni had advanced that it would be signed by one hundred and fifty thousand rebfels, he would be responsible for a million of good citizens, ready to repress the im pudence of the fa<ftiou», and compel refpesft to the royal authority. As to the differences of religion, those who in clined to Calvinifui, proposed to demand of the Pope, a free general council, where they might dil'cufs and decide by common consent, the mat ters of controversy : that if the Sovereign Pontiff Ihould refufe to grant one, the King ought, after the example offome of his wife predeceflors, to agetnble a national council. But the Cardinal of Lorrain,' answered that there was no occasion for any other council than that which the Pope had already called at Trent, which had already reprehended and condemned the dotflrines of the innovators, opposed to the Romish church. As to tlie constitution and government of the state, alter ail infinity of propofirionsand difcuf lions, fu<rgefted by the variety of interests, Mont lue or MariJtac, by the secret order of the Queen, proposed an Aflembly of the States General : and the two parties, with one voiceconfented. The Constable, tbe Admiral and their partizans, by the hope of obtaining a change in the ministry, the Queen-mother and the Guises, because they hoped to destroy their rivals. An edicft was ac cordingly pa fled at Fontainbleau, for holding the States General, and the lecretaries of state expedited letters patents to all the Provinces of the Kingdom, with orders to fend, in the month ot October, their deputies to Otleans, there to hold the States General.

FROM THE UNITED STATES CHROSICL t, Extratt of a letter from a gentleman in Gibraltar to his friend in America, dated June 16, 179°* « 'TnHE Effendi, who is the Prime Minister, i. kept his [The Emperor of Morocco] death concealed fevcral days, during which time he sent the treaJ'ure with aftrongguard to the capi tal,and dispatched a courier to Mali El-Azed,in forming him of the death of his father. El-Azed in an instant ordered himfelf to be proclaimed in the tomb of Abfolem, Emperor of Morocco, nißUiits his herfe, and goes dire<fl for Tetuan, at which place I was at the time of his arrival. He was received by every one with open arms, and declared Emperor in all their places of wor ftiip. The firft order that he gave was, that eve ry Jew in that city should be put to death.—This was nearly being carried into execution, but a worthy fellow who had been with him during his travels requested thai he would fufpeiul his order, as being contrary to the laws of Mahomet and God. The new Emperor they ordered every man, woman and chHd of the Jewifti religion to be ft ripped naked, their goods, money and pro perty of every kind to be given to his troops. This was a&ually done :—and of all the scenes that ever 1 law, this was the most horrid.—Think within yourfelf to fee thousands of beautiful wo men going round the streets in the greatest dis tress, without a single rag of clothcs upon them. My rooms were as full of women as they could How, and Ido declare to you, that every article of clothes, blankets, sheets, &c. save what I wore, were appropriated to their use. My pen cannot describe to you the horrid fuuation they were in, cut, beat, and abufedby every rascal they came near. Many hundreds of their women were ra vished by the black troops. This horrid scene beinc over, he enquired for the Spanish and En gl ilh Vice-Con fu'.s. who were both Jews. He or dered them both to be tied up by their heels, there to remain until they died. At the request •f the Englilh Admiral, the Englilli Vice-Consul did not fulFer, but a much better man, the Spa nish, fuffered as above. The many cruelties he has committed would be too much for me to describe, or you to read. He next proceeded to Tangiers, Sallee, See. but in place of acting as he had done at Tetuan, he was advifedto exa<S large fuins of money, which was done all along as hepafl'ed. He is now created Emperor all over the Empire. It was generally thought he wouldmeet withoppofition fromfome of his brothers, but in place of that wherever he made his appearance they fled. New-London, Sept. 8. IT is recommended to those who put up beef for a foreign market—ift, That in cutting up their beef they would use a long lharp knife to cutthefleih, and a steel plate back saw to cut the bone, inllead of an ax or cleaver, as the cutting and sawing leaves the meet fquareend unbruifed, and fair to the eye *fter salting and packing. 2d. A sure way of putting up beef to remain good and fit for any market for the lpace ofyears —Apply to of pick'd or mess beef,cut in 4lb. or 61b. pieces, half bushel Liverpool fait, 2 or 3lb. coarfc brown sugar, 40Z. falt-petre—pack it close—let your cask be well hoop'd and pickled. This has been experienced by a friend this 40 years, who never lolt any so put up. DIRECTIONS FOR MAKING CIDER. THE apples after being thrown in a heap Should always be covered from the weather. The later the cider is made the better, as the juices are then more perfectly ripened, and less danger to be feared from fermentation. No thing does more harm to cider than a mixture of rotten apples with the found. The apples ought to be ground foclofe as to bieak the feeds, which gives the liquor an agreeable bitter. The pumice also, ihould be preflcd through hair bags, and the juice (trained through two sieves, the upper molt of hair, the lowermost of mullin. After this the cider ihould be put into open calks,when great attention is neccflary to discover the exart time in which the pit take Hill remaining in the juicc, rises on the topj which happens from the third to the tenth day, according as the weather is more or less warm. This body does not re main upon the top more than two hours ; confc quently great care should be taken to draw off the cider before it fink?, which may be done by means of a plug. When drawn off, the cider is put into caiks. Particular attention is again re quired to prevent the fermentation, when the least inclination towards it is discovered. This may be done by means of a small quantity of cider lpirits, about one gallon to the hogshead. In March the cider Ihould be again drawn off, when all risk of fermentatidn ceases. Then it fliould be pur into good sweat calks, and in three years' from that time is fit for bottling. Old wine calks are to be preferred ; those which contained rum are ruinous to cider. Large earthen jars might be made witlv or without glazing, which would 600 be preferable to any wooden veflels whatever. Tliis is theEngliih method of making cider, and when compared with the hasty procel's usual in America, 110 wonder their cider I'o infinitely ex. eels ours. Daily Advertiser. ADVE RTIS EMENT.
