Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travels in Russia, &C. &C, Vol. 1 of 2In the same breath we declare the Russians to be semi-barbarians, and furiously inveigh against them because we do not find them models of perfiection; we are determined to note down only their faults, and then abuse them because we do not bring home a catalogue of virtues. Let us rather keep in view that the latter and virtues they assuredly have, arise not fi'om the excellence, but in spite of the defects of their institutions. Patriotism is unquestionably a noble sentiment; but I will not denominate that patriotism which displays itself only in depre ciating others that hateful spirit, which would pass its ban upon all beyond its own narrow pale.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travels in Russia, &C, Vol. 1 of 2 Notwithstanding that the two capitals of Russia have been frequently described, I have been induced to lay before the public my own observations, trusting that these sketches of them will be found to contain many particulars that have been passed by without notice by other travellers. In fact, the improvements that have taken place at St. Petersburg during the reign of Alexander, and the renovation of Moscow, have tended to render preceding descriptions obsolete; while those who have more recently visited these places, have, by no means, de scribed them so fully as to supersede any occa sion for similar works. Neither do I myself pretend to have supplied their omissions; yet I may, perhaps, be allowed to say, that I have con tributed a few gleanings to the common stock of our information relative to Russia, a country.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travels in Russia, &C, Vol. 2 of 2 Having viewed the most interesting edifice and other objects at St Petersburg, it was now our intention to proceed to the ancient capital of the empire, which had become more peculiarly interesting in consequence of the resistance it had made against Napoleon, the devastation it then experienced, and its subsequent rapid revival from almost total extinction. The road in this direction was really excellent, and we observed in various places several handsome wells, built of granite, and ornamented with sphinxes in the antique style.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Six Years Travels in Russia, Vol. 1 of 2 These were unusually hilarious sounds, which, issuing from the breakfast-table, greeted us in our distant cabin on awakening to that joyous morn ing, the fourth since we had left Stettin, and the last we were likely to pass on board the Vladimir. A heavy sea and high winds - the usual avant courrz'ers of approaching winter in these latitudes - had beset our gallant vessel ever since she quitted the lagoon at the mouth of the Oder, terminating in a violent tussle in the Gulf of Finland, from which she was likely to have suf feted severely but for a sudden change in the wind that enabled her to escape with comparatively small damage, such as the loss of some of her gear, a few bruises, breakages, tattered gibs, and the almost suspended animation of every female heart on board. But, happily, the fears and sorrows of the past night were merged in other feelings, in the unexpected - and to most of us unprecedented scene which awaited our awakening in the morning.

We had a Virgin and Child in one corner, and a large saint with a brilliant glory in another. Having taken stock of these things, we mount ed to an upper deck provided with an awning and benches. The steersman was at one end, and the other was occupied by rows of leathern buckets, full of water, the sparks from the wood being apt to set the awning on fire, as many a hole testified. The river rolled on swift, broad, and troubled. The low banks, fringed with scrubby brushwood, had no beauty to te commend them. The scene was fine but deso late, there were so few signs of human occupa tion. The morning ﬂed rapidly away in tranquillity, which was delightful, after the fatigues of the previous day. Those who could afford to dine from the restaurant, did so be tween four and five o'clock. The Armenians, along with their Russian bonne, who spoke a few words of French, took their meals in the deck cabin, and some half-dozen men had their little tables spread under the awning. We pre ferred the large ladies' cabin, of which we had sole possession, the Armenians having stowed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Russia, Vol. 2 of 2 The spring had already arrived: the great break ing up of the Neva had taken place, and only a few tardy masses of ice were oating down the /cur rent, to be lost in the gulf, which was already open to navigation. The roofs had lost their ermine covering, and the snow in the streets had turned into black mire and hopeless Slush. The ravages of winter, hidden for so long under a white cover ing, showed in all their ugliness. The pavements were disjointed, the streets broken, and our droskies, pitching from one quagmire to another, jolted us so terribly that we jumped about like peas on a drum, for the bad condition of the streets did not at all prevent the drivers from tearing along as if the devil were after them. If only the two little wheels follow them, they are quite content, and do not in the least trouble themselves about the trav eler.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travels in Russia, Tartary and Turkey One evening, being at his theatre in the Hermitage, a French piece was performed, in which the story of the English powder-plot was introduced. The emperor was observed to listen to it with more than usual at tention; and as soon as it was concluded, he ordered all the vaults beneath the palace to be searched. Coming down the street called the Perspective, he perceived a nobleman who was taking his walk, and had stopped to look at some workmen who were planting trees by the emperor's order. What are you doing 2 said he. Merely seeing the men work, replied the nobleman. Oh is that your employment? Take off his pelisse, and give him a spade! There, now work yourself! When enraged, he lost all command of himself, which sometimes gave rise to very ludicrous scenes. The courtiers knew very well when the storm was coming on, by a trick which he had in those moments of blowing from his under lip against the end of his nose. In one of his furious passions, ﬂourishing his cane about, he struck by accident the branch of a large glass lustre, and broke it. As soon as he perceived what had hap pened, he attacked the lustre in good earnest, and did not give up his work until he had entirely demolished it. In the rare intervals of better temper, his good humour was betrayed by an uncouth way of swinging his legs and feet about in walking. Upon those occa sions, he was sure to talk with indecency and folly. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
