The Russian Emperor's Reception Of an
American Citizen.


American Citizen.
We have received autographed letter giving the fol
lowing particulars Of the atterng reception given by the
Emperor Alexander to an American Citizen
LEGATION or THE UNITED STATES
ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. %, 1859 (
During the great Court Ball given at Nobility Hall last
night in honor Of the majority Of the heir apparent
to the Crown of Russia the Emperor up me and
said be had that day the pleasure of sending for Mr. Sas
+. Burrows, fellow counryman of mine and receiving
him at the Palace where he glad have the oppor
tunity of welcoming him. for he had been great friend
of his father. the Emperor Nicholas and did many kind
things for Russia and very hospable the Russian
His Imperial Majesty then added with warmth and feel
ing, :" am glad to be able to him and give him a
kind welcome by the hand, and Twas pleased with the
interview
The Grand Duke Constantine also made the warmest
acknowledgement OF Mr. Burrows kindness and generos
ty. Mr. Burrows had solicited presentation through
me, which Is the ordinary mode Of seeking interview
with the Emperor, but expressly said that what he had
done Tor the Emperor Nicholas and his naval officers had
been done MS private gentleman and he would be graft
fed to receive an acknowledgment personally from the
Emperor but he would not request seek it through me-
the Minister of the United Sta,es.
do not know that private citizen of any country was
ever before received by the Emperor Of Russia in his
private cabinet alone, in such friendly and
consider the highest act Of real kindness and
welcome that could be extended him. and reflects great
creut on the goodnesS ana Kindness OF the Emperor S
heart.
1t is true that what Mr. Burrows did in rescung Baron
Krudener and the officers of the Russian Navy who
passengers from the wreck OF his Imperial Maestys cor
vette kensington now Prince Of Warsaw) In 1880 and
refusing the ten thousand dollars which Baron Krudener
(who was the Russian Minister to Washngton) had
agreed TO give Mr. Burrows captain for returning with
them TO New York; merits the highest praise In addition
his afterwards advancing sixty thousand dollars to rct
that corvette for sea- and sending her to Russia at Pc
Rod when the Poles in possession Of Warsaw at
great sacrifices to himself altogether exhibit the ex-
aordinary acts Of generosity and beraty ever per-
formed by private gentleman for the exclusive benefit
Of foreigners and grea. potentate.
Mr. Burrows acts Of hospitality and lbcralty to the
Russians who were prisoners at Hong Kong evnced the
feelings and magnanmity Of true American citizen.
For all of these acts he deserved everything that could
be done by noble and generous monarch but for the
Emperor to evnce such unreserved kindness when his
time must be absorbed by the great and pressing de-
mands of this mighty empire, Is evidence Of uncommon
grateful to him aud honorable to his Imperial Majesty the
emperor f. w. PICKENS.
