he enclosed will give you a very ius,
IDEA OF the opinion which all Foreign Courts
have OF the insgnifcance of our government.
An American who has fortune, and lives
like Gentleman, is more noticed and re
spected at the Courts Of st. Cloud and St
Petersburgh, than the American Ambassa
DOR because the former supports his charac
ter, and the latter is not able to support the
style OF d gentleman with the salary Above d
to him by his government"
The following is the article enclosed in the
letter from which the preceding was extrac
ted 1t was taken from a London paper of
the 22d of November:
Letters from St. Petersburgh. of the
10th October have been transmitted ov the
tIottenburgh Mails. They mention the ar
rival there OF the American plenipotentiarv
var. JOHN QUINCY ADAMS, on the 2sd in
the merchant ship Horace. The approach
to the Russian Capital of this ship and her
charge, had been previously announced from
Carlscrona, and for day or two prevjous
TO her appearance, guns were prepared on
the ramparts to give eckat to the landing Of
TINS new statesman; at length, Instead of a
trigate, as was expected, a merchant shin
laden with sugar and coffee hove in sight
q boat was hoisted out, and Mr.. J. y. A.
DAMS approached the shore but before he
was suffered to land. he underwent a severe
examination by tie Officers of the Customs.
who were with difficulty convinced that he
was the ambassador expected from the new
world. He was, however, at last permitted
10 land, but the usual salute by the guns on
shore did not take place."
