LONDON,
THURSDAY, A UGITS2' 4, 1814.

The following intelligence by a Gottenburgh
Mail,- which . arrived this morning, confirms the
accounts previously received through the medium
of the French Papets. Hostilities against .Nor-
Way have actually commenced : the country is
naturally very strong, and has on former occasions
successfully resisted- invasion, but we imagine it
is utterlyincompetent, iu its preseni situation,
and against the new system of carrying on ‘var,
to maintain a struggle, the result of which can
be otherwise than fatal to many valuable lives,
and useless to Norway.

GOTTENBURGII, JLJLT 26.—A heavy can-
nonade was heard on Saturday last, in the direc-
tion of Indericsvarn, which lasted from 2 till 10
o'clock in the afternoon, and is supposed to be an
'attack on the Islands at the entrance ot which
the Norwegian flotilla is stationed, as troops were
embarked on Wednesday and Thursday last, at
purpose.
Strom for that

" Two o'CLocK, P. M.—lntelligence has just
been rsceived from Utidevralla, that Mi. reltrran

and the other Commissioners were to leave that
town at 5 this morning, to return to Norway."

Ppers of the ist Attginst have borne to
iland. They are silent upon the report we noticed
yesterday, and otherwise unimportant. `With te-
kard to that report, our Readers would see, from
our introductory remarks, that we considered it
somewhat improbable ; we can assure them,
however, that it has been openly spoken Of in
Paris, though we do not eNpect to sec it noticed
in the French Journals.

The Party are quite displeased with the Prin-
cess of NVALES for giving them the slip, and going,
contrary to their_adeice, to the Continent. They
fondly imagined her Royal Highness would spend
her increased income among themselves. The Or-
gan for ptillisbing all these affairs (since every
private transaction must now be published, and
domestic concerns only are conducted with the view
of being laid before the whole world! !) states,
'' that the PRINCESS says, in her letter to
the Earl of LIVERPOOL. that she has met with
nothing but mortification and misery since she set
her foot in the Island. assuaged only by the affec-
tionate protection she received from his MAJESTY,
to the last hour of his mental intelligence. De-
prived of his countenance, sLe had no tie left hit
her daughter, and her society she was no longer
permitted to enjoy. We understand, that in her
letter she offers to resign the flangership of Green-
wicn rarK in favour of the Prin::ess CHARLOTTE.

She wiAcs to keen her ap:,lrttnents in Kensington
PAlace for a short Clink., 31;,(i there is cue or t‘vo
other requests, which will i: all co:4lied
Upon all this we shalt nrieily retna...k, that t:'e
Princess has contrived pretty ally to mortify
others in .return for het unirtilleations, and that
she does- not stand alone in having had misery
inflicted upon her.

We have long eeascd to be astonished at any
means employed by the desperate Party, or at
any of their assertions, however bold, to dis-
parage the country of their birth, or cast censure
upon the Throne and its advisers.
Less, we have been a little staggere.i this morn-
ing, by the excessive effrontery, and utter con-
tempt to truth, Manifested by the Chronicle, is
an effusion treating of the contest in which
we are engaged with America. As if forget-.
ful of the origin of this war, and of the
incessant endeavours of the British Cabinet
to avert it in the first instance, and ever af-
ter to bring it to an honourable conclusion,
this impudent and. mendacious journal dares to '
charge our Government with indulging in " a spi-
rit of ferocious hostility" against America, with
eheuishing an " implacable temper," with endea-
vouring '° to keep alive a spirit of rancorous hos-
tility to America, which seems to 'aim at the ex-
tinction of the United States us an independent
country."—Where, in Heaven's name, ha-s this li-
beller of his country discovered these things but in
his own malignant brain. The very Faction of
which be is a retainer, must disown his fake-
hoods, for they pledged themscl% es to the most
vigorous support of the war, should the Govern-
ment of the United States be so irreclaimably de-
termined in hostility against this Country, as to
refuse Peace founded on their then only ggettnd of
complaint—the Repeal of the Orders in Council.
These Orders were repealed (proof of our " fero-
cious hostility"), and America persevered in
war. In every Speech from
,the Throtie, the
most solemn pledges have been given by the
PIONCE REGENT of his earnest desire to conclude
an honourable Peace with the United States, (more
proofs of " implacable temper;") but America
persevered in War. In the very last of these sa-
cred documents, on Saturday last, the same as-
surances are repeated, even after the downfall of
the MADisoNIAN Idol, IIuoNAPARTE, (farther
proofs of a desire to extinguish the indepen-
dance of the Country) ; and, unless chastisement,
aided by the humiliation of the hopes founded on
European politics, induces a better way of think-
ing, America' will, in spite of ail our pacific ef-
forts, still continue at war with us.
Is it not infamous, that any faction, however
unjust, should take such pains to relieve the real
offenders from the odium of this unnatural war,
for the patriotic purpose of throwing it upon the
Administration of their own country
But whatever may be the spirit of our Mini-
sters, anti whatever fears the Morning Chronicle,
with its usual Anti English feeling, may begin to
entertain for the safety of its Transatlantic friends,
we hope, indeed we know, that there is a na-
tional spirit which extends far beyond the Mini-
sterial circles, and that every true friend of his
country is sensible, as he ought to be, that no peace
which does not absolutely cripple America, can be
safe, so long as that contemptible wretch MADISON
and his gang continue to govern that Country. We
again repeat, for the satisfaction of the Morning

But, we cou-
