Synopsis
Reception And Entertainment Of The Chinese Embassy by City Council of Boston documents the 1868 visit of Anson Burlingame's Chinese Mission to the United States and the city’s receptions in Boston. The pamphlet recounts the sequence of events: a civic procession through city streets to the Parker House; a public reception in Faneuil Hall; a banquet at the St. James Hotel attended by Governor Alexander H. Bullock, Mayor Nathaniel B. Shurtleff, and a host of dignitaries, including Ralph Waldo Emerson, Oliver Wendell Holmes, and Charles Sumner. It records the Embassy’s representatives, led by Burlingame, and cites lengthy remarks celebrating the treaty between China and the United States, the principles of equality, non-intervention, and the expansion of commerce. The text includes toasts, orations, and poems that praise Sino-American friendship, as well as discussions of the treaty’s significance for trade and law. Additional entertainments—the harbor excursion, visits to Cambridge and Lawrence, and the Governor’s reception—are described, culminating in the Embassy’s departure for New York.
