Schie, Messrs, Dkiks and Wille, &o. 11 35 10 45 NOTES. 1. Coast of Norway.—The Trigonometrical Survey of the "Western Coasts of Norway, to the northward of Trondhjem, was commenced by Lieut. Vibe, assisted by Lieuts. Paludan and Hagerup, in June, 1828, by order of the Norwegian Government. It waa continued by those officers, under the direction of Capt. Vibe, to the frontiers of Russian Lapland, till 1849. Their elaborate charts, pubhshed at intervals, between 1835 and 1849, show the extraordinary features of this coast—a complete labj'rinth of islets and rocks— of which all written descriptions must utterly fail in giving any notion. We have given the positions of the more prominent landmarks, but there are few points which can be made available for the mariner's use, except the mformation afforded by their valuable charts. 2. Trondhjem, &c.—The ancient cathedral of Trondhjem or Drontheim, once one of the finest in Europe, was the northern limit of the survey carried on by the Danish Government. The coasts to the South were trigonometrically and astronometrically surveyed by Commissioner N. A. Vibe, before mentioned, assisted by Lieut. D'Aubert and Captain C. F. Grove, as far as Stavanger "uid Egefield. The charts issued vmder Admiral Kliiit (ft well-known name), leave little to be desired, and the nature of the country, tiie
