CoPe.NHAGES. MARCIT 13.
" I, Christian f rederick, Regent of Norway, &c.
declare, that I, as well as the whole people of Nor-
way, acknowledge it as a particular benefit from the
King, Frederick VI., that a few days before he ab-
solved this nation from its oath, be gave it peace
with Great Britain. It would have been my first
object to obtain this blessing, and I shall always en-
deavour to preserve it for the good people of Nor-
way, not only with Great Britaio, but also with all
other Powers."
[lt then recites some regulations respecting com-
merce, which, in the present slats) of affairs, are not
of iMportaoce.]
PROCLASIATIoN TO THE SOLDIERS.
".The Norwegian nation places it hopes on you,
Witte warriors, for a happy conclusion of the con-
igst,t in which we willingly engage 'for the country.
- " The first condition of the surrender of Norway,
Ilvas the delivery of all the fortresses and warlike
stores to the Swedes. -
6• Then you would have been required to lay
down your arms, but this shall not be.
66 Norway exists by your valour. The, aged
women and children live secure among the Norwe-1
gian mountains, defended by Norway's brave sorts,
led by your Regent and, revered Commander. Vicrj
tory and liberty, or death, be our motto !—My lot T?
inseparable from yours ; my confidence is yours -
unanimity, my hope God, my reword your love."
A circular to the Clergy, expressed almost in th
. same terms as the other Proclamation, desires them
it..' to pot up public prayers for the success of the Nor-
wegians, in the assertion of their independence.
