TREATY BETWEEN RUSSIA AND SWEDEN.

Substance of the ergagentutts between the Courts of St. Petersburgh
and stockholin, signed at St. Petersbnrgh the 4th of March, 81'4
so fur as the saute w.e rearrtd to in the Tr, aly tetween his Majesty
and the King of .*,tectlett, signed at Stockholm on the :id of March,
1813.
The object of the Emperor of Russia and tie King of Sweden
ill forming an alliance, is stated to be for thuaimrpose of securing
reciprocally their states and possyssions against the common enemy.
The French Government, 11,1%1114 by the occupation of Swedish
Pomerania committed an act of hostility against the Swedi-h Go-
' vernment, and by the movement of its armies having menaced the
tramptillity of the empire of Russia, the contracting parties engiti:e
to make a diversion against Fralice and her allies, with a combined
knee of twenty five or thirty thousand Swedes, and of fifteen or
twenty thousand Russians, upon 'owl' point of the coast of Ger-
maity a, ni.iy be judged most convenient for that pi,rpose.
As the King of Sweden cannot make this diversion in favour of
the common cause, consistently with the security of his doinionms,
so long as lie call regard the kiligdom of .Norway as an euenry, flis
Majesty the Emperor of Rto:sia engages, either by negociation or by
fkilitary co-optrationx to (wile liinedon of I\cm‘ay to Swedeti,
etigages, moreover, to gnat autec the peaceable possession of it
to his Swedish Maje•ty.
The two Contractiog Parties engage to consider the acquisition
of Norway by Sweden as a preliminary military operation to the di-
-I.4ersion on the coast of Germany ; and the Emperor of Russia pro-
mises to place for this object, at tlw disposal and under the imme-
diate orders of the Prince Royal of Sweden, the corps of Rwsian
troops above stipulated.
The two Contracting parties being unwilling if it can be avoided,
to make au enemy of the Kilig of Denmark, will propose to that
Sovereign to accede to this alliance ; and will idler to his Datiisla Ma-
jesty to procure for him a complete indemnity for Norway. by a terri-
tory more contiguous to his German dominion.; provided his Danish
Majesty will cede for ever his rights/0m the kingdom of Norway to
the King of Sweden.
In case his Danish Majesty shall refuse this offer, and skill have
decided to remain in alliance with France, the two contracting par•
ties engage to consider Denmark as their enemy.
As it has been expressly stipulated that the engagement ()Ibis
Swedish Majesty to operate with his troops in Germany in fa-
vonr at the conmum cause, shall not take effect mail alter Norway t
tzten SwrAlen, either by the CmiOu a the I
