Much nearer to the capital is Eidsveld, on the navigable outlet of Lake Mjosen, where the first Norwegian Storthing met after the treaty of union with Sweden in 1814. It had for

The lake is sometimes swept by gales, which raise heavy seas, billows, and ground swells like those of the ocean. Its waters are also kept in a constant ferment by its tributaries, to which is perhaps partly due a current setting steadily along the east coast northwards, and along the west coast southwards. Its level has been determined by Schubert at about GO

Even the channel separating them from the Swedish coast is sometimes frozen, and in 1809 a Cossack troop was able to gallop across and surprise the town of Grisselhamn. Wolves also cross over in severe seasons, and ravage the inhabited islands, numbering altogether about eighty. The southern shores of Finland are also cut off" from the deep waters by numerous isles and reefs, which greatly obstruct navigation. In the middle of the gulf itsel

But its fluvial form renders it probable that in a previous geological epoch the Suvando had already received the waters of the Wuoxen. Like Onega and Peipus, Ladoga was formerly far more extensive even than at present, for its low and almost treeless southern shores consist of clays, sands, and gravels containing large quantities of erratic stones of every size, from simple pebbles to huge boulders. From these low-lying shores the bed of the lake falls imperceptibly towards
