    To G. S. Esq. Petersburgh. DEAR SIR; I received the favor of your lastK dated February 18th, and very sincerely con- gratulate you on the success of the Emperor. May his magnanimous exertions lay a solid foundation for peace and good order throughout Europe ! I am much obliged by your account of the state of medicine and surgery in Russia. The philosophic traveler, who, in addition to general observation, pursues some favorite branch of science, and liberally communicates the result of his inquiries, performs an essential service to society.
