Note 11 — SECT. V. Of the IMPEDIMENTS which will oppose European Settlements on the Coast of Guinea.
Reading edition
Mr. Sefstrom, in Sweden, has lately discovered, that a very small quantity of campfire, strewed on a fire-coal, immediately destroys every insect within the reach of its effluvia, and no doubt would prove fatal to the musketoes. See the Acts of the Royal Society of Sciences at Stockholm, for the year 1787.
