SOMERHJELM,

CHRISTIAN. , Nov. 13.
Highness the Prince-Royal, accom-
panied by Prince Oscars set out from Fredericks-
hail on the Bth inst. for Christiania. At Sooner,
where the line of demarkation passed, the Nor,
wegian regiment of Sunnanfyall was under arms,
and his Royal Highness passed it in xeliew. Ge.
neral Ahrenfelt received him half a league in ad-
vance of Moss. He passed the night in that town.
Next day his Royal Highness continued his
journey. Gen. Sejerstedt 'Came to render his ho-
mage at half a league from Christiania ; and Col.
Hegernian, Chief of the Garrison, received the
Priuce at the entrance of the capital, which was
illuminated. The Members of the Council of
State, the President of the Stortliing, the CM' and
military authorities, were assembled at the castle
to receive his Royal Highness.
On the 10th the Prince repaired in state to the
Hall of the Diet. - His procession was composed
of the Counsellors of State, the Commissioners'
of the King, the Generals present at Christiania,
and the OfficerS of his suite. His Royal High-
ness deliveyed a Speech to the Assembly, which
is annexed hereto, and which was repeated by
Prince Oscar in. the Swedish language. When
this was finished, the Assembly on the invitation
of the President, took the oath -of fidelity to the
King, each with ' one hand uplifted. This act
was followed by his Royal Highness giving to the
President the Declaration by which his Majesty
promises to govern the Norwegian Nation accord-
mg to the laws : after which-his Royal Highness .
left the Assembly, and returned to Christiania,
accompanied as before.
His Royal Highness presided _at a Sitting of
the Council of State on the Ilth, When the
Members took the oath of fidelity to the King,
and when his Excellency the Field Marshal-Colint
d'Esscn was invested with'. the -dignity of Stadt-
. holder of the kingdom of Norway.
• On the 13th a solemn Te Decent was celebrated
in the Cathedral Church of Christiania, to recut n
thanks for the union or the two kingdoms, at
which their Royal Highnesses, with the. King's
Commissioners, the Civil and Military Authori-
ties, and the ;whole body of•t/se Deputies to the
Diet, assisted. Doctor Bech, Bishop of Aggers-
mus, in an eloquent discourse, developed the -ad-
vantages which the two nations ought to derive
how their 'union, and exhorted the Norwegian -

peop)c to obedient e-and firlelity to their new 567
• vereinn ; after which he read in an audible voice
From the pulpit, the ProAantation of his Majesty
to the Norftgiatt nation, Of which-, translatiOn

'I ttis
clay a proposition of the Kin;.; concernipg
the finances has, been communicated to the As--
seMbly. it will-terminate the labours of the ac-
tual f)ieti which will probably be dissolved on
thl6th th. next month: two or three days after
which his Royal ilighness will.depart for Stock-
holm.

His Royal Highness has every reason to be sa-
tisfied with the good spirit that reigns among the
inhabitants of Christiania, and the Members of
the Diet ; it spreads itself further and ffirtheri tb
the extremities of, the kingdom ; and new hopes,
strengthened by the general satisfaction which
the presence of the l'rince produces, hate already
succeeded to the former prejudices which alone
opposed the union with Sweden.
The Swedish artily has_been on its march bome;-
wards for these two days. At Frederiekshall, his
Royal Highness .-addresscd a proclamation (sub-
joined) to his troops.
Accept t.he assurance of the high consideration
with .whiclt-I have the honour to be,„&c. &c.

of Stormaric aid- Dittmarsen, Count of Oldenburg and
neluzenhorst; &c. To all our Subjects i nhabiting the King-
!tom of Norway t .
We now perform a duty dear to our heart in acquainting
you that the National Diet of the Kingdom of Norway
. having, nil the 4th inst. unanimously acknowledged and
elected us Constitutional King of Norway, we-yesterday, by
the hands of our well-beloved son, Charles John, Crown
Prince of Sweden and Norway, and Generalissimo of the Sea
and Land Forces of both Kingdoms, deposited with the Die t
our oath to govern the Kingdom of Norway according to its
. constitution and its laws, and receive the oath of the Diet to
us and to the constitution.
The great object of our wishes is ' thus accomplished, and
• theslast seal is'atlixed to the anion of the two nations of the
Scandinavian Peninsula. Norwegians-: henceforward you
have sacred claims on our heart and on our paternal solici-
tude. Your fidelity and attachment will be the return for the
new duties which we have to fulfil towards you, and the most
satisfactory reward which a gond King cati desire.
Tti fundamental law, which your Representatives have
adopted in concert with our Commissioners, and which we
have solemnly received and.approved, will serve as a guaran-
tee both of 'your rights and your future 'prosperity. Bear in
mind that these valuable blessings are only to be preserved by
respect for Religion and so.eialorder, and that the sanctity of
rights always rests on the faithful performance of the'duties
thereto attached.
We are aware of the difficulties which we have to surmount
hut we entertain the consoling hope, that, seconded by the
intelligence and energy of patriot-citizens, we shall be enabled
succes,i rely to efface the remembrance and the enets of a long
and disastrous war.
It is by encouraging agriculture,, by giving to commerce un-
interrupted activity,• that the public welfare will gradually
resume new strength. The union between Sweden and Nor-
way collecting in one mass the hitherto divided powers of the
two kingdoms, furnishes the most powerful motive and the
surest means for maintaining recce. :The nations of the
Scandinavian Peninsula have within themselves strength to
defend their independence arid their laws. Beyond its limits
they have no real advantage to.exneet:
May Providence bless cur paternal efforts for ydur happi-
ness. Union of heart and of resolution, obedience to the
laws, energy against oppression,—such are the surest foun-
dations of the existence of States: it is by them that the
North, amidst all fature.vicissittides, will maintain its name,
its liberty, and glory, defended by the sea and its mountains,
and by the courage of its sans. •
By the authority of my most gracious Sovereign and Lord.

Christiania, Nor. 1 1 , 1814.

SPEECH DELIVERED EY HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS THE

CROWN PRINCE, TO THE NATIONAL DIET OF
NORWAY, THE 10TH NOV. 1814.
GENTLEMEN,-The King has seen the wishes
accomplished which he has not ceased to form
for the happiness and independence of the Scan-
dinavian peninsula : its two'nations have abjured
their long and unfortunate animosities, and in
future will know no other rivalry but in their love
for their common country. I❑ concurring to-
wards this great object, Gentlemen, you have ac-
quired sacred claims to the regard of his Majesty,
and to the gratitude of your fellow-citizens.
The double glory has been reserved to the King;
of seeing two tree nations present to hint the
Crown by their spoutaneous and unanimous
Wisheii. Towards the Swedes he never set up the
rights of his birth ; and in like manner he pre-
ferred to those claims which► the most solemn

treaties had given him, the titles more pleasing
and dear to his heart which he might derive from
your affections. The King has alwiys wished
that the Norwegians aid Swedes, as being equal
in rights, should enjoy the same eOnstitutional
benefits ; and the new fundamental law which
you have adopted in concert with the King, will
serve at once as a guarantee of your liberty, and
as a proof to Europe of the liberal views and the.
moderation of your Sovereign.
You will-reply, Gentlemen, to the just confi-
dence which he has placed in, you. You will guide
this faithful people„ and after zealously fulfilling
your ftmetions as Legislators, you will contribute
by your intelligence and efforts to make that Go-
vernment loved which you. have. given yourselves.
-In order to prepare the -Means of doing this, it
is-essentially important to enlighten the Nation
as to its situation and prospects. It is necessary
that theY.should.aiit ascribe to the new authority
evils of whichifilliNS not the cause. It is neces-
sary that -the peofile should know in what state
the King found your finances and your adminis-
tration, in order that they may be able to judge
impartially of the ameliorations which must he
the natural fruit of his Government. You will
receive, Gentleitieli, a proposition as tp.tlie pre-
paratory measure which will he necessary for this
purpose.

The union between Sweden
,and Norway is
founded 'Oll our.gengruphical position, on the na-
ional character of both. Stittesi on their ;mutual

We sternly re-assert the fact here denied. We
will prove it from their own lips to have been
their undeviating practice, and tie challenge them
before fair Country to produce one, ONE INSTANCE,
iri which they 'adopted en opposite course, or one.
prophecy which they delivered which has not been
falsified by events, or one advice which they have
given, not directly opposite to the policy by
which Europe his been saved, and this country
raised to the pinnacle of glory.

And why do they now ahtte their fallen idol
and friend ?—Why do they not run the disgrace-
fUl race to Elba, which they did before to Paris,
to pay their adorations at the footstool of the Hero
whom their desperate ingratitude stigmatizes in his
wreck with the cruel appellation of Tyrant !
Shame. on such men. They ought to hide their
heads,.and not venture thus to brave the recol-
lections of an indignant People.

- Through a private channel (says a. Morning Pa-
per), a letter yesterday reached tni from Frattee,
of tie &Ate of Saturday last, giving some further
information as to the measures adopted regarding
Amerian vessels. By this intelligence it appears
that the True-Blooded Yankee, which has com-
mitted so many depredations on. our British
traders, was in the harbour of Brest, under re-
strictions not to quit it. In defiance of the man-
date Of the Port AdMital she made a successful at-
tempt to leave the harbour, and she is now at sea.
On this circumstance being known,. expresses were
sent from Brest to Paris, with a statement of the
facts•to the illinister of the Marine, and the eon-

sequence has been that the property of an Ante-
rican'merchant, the owner of this privateer, who
resided at Paris, has been put under sequestration,
and to avoid the arrest of his person he has him-
self withdrawn from the city.

In a letter received in town from Lisbon, dated
Nov 12, it k stated, that an American privateer
schooner, which had arrived there with a valuable
cargo of hark, and had taken on board another
cargo for Philadelphia, after lying, some • time at
Lisbon, about nine o'clock on the morning of the
above date, got under weigh to put to sea, having
on board, it is mentioned, Mr. CocHHANE JOHN-
STONE, under- the assumed name of Sharp; and
that two of our frigates, the Gilliam! and Curagoa,
also weighed anchor, and stood out about half-
past nine o'clock the same morning ; when an
passing Belem, the Castle fired a blank, gun to
bring them to, which not being attended to, an-
