They were very polite and civil, and seemed highly delighted when told that we came there as friends, and as Americans, and shook Captain Nicholson and all warmly by the hand. They were then introduced to Mr. Reed 'by Mr. Williams, with whom they had a long conversation, through the interpreter. Captain Nicholson had some hot ooeee furnished for them and their attend ants, about twenty in number. The weather being very cold, this kind act of our warm-hearted daptain pleased them very much. Mr. Reed assured them that our visit was one of friendship, peace, and commerce, and that we did not come there as enemies, but as American friends. Mr. Reed ih formed them that he had a dispatch to send to the emperor, and that our little junk. The Peiho, was about starting up to the forts to deliver it. The mandarins offered to furnish any provisions we might want free of cost. To this Mr. Reed objected, stating that we must pay for all that we received from them. They also thought that our letter would be received without any difficulty. They then gave Mr. Reed and the officers another shake of the hand, and, bowing very politely, left the ship.
