Excerpt from A Summer's Tour in Europe, in 1851: In a Series of Letters, Addressed to the Editors of the Charleston Courier
We have also, in our list of passengers, the Hon. S. G. Goodrich, recently appointed Consul of the United States, to succeed Mr. Walsh at Paris. This latter gentleman has done much, during a long residence in France, both in a private and public capacity, to elevate and vindicate the American character and its institutions: and we doubt not that his suc cessor, carrying with him, as he does, a world-wide literary reputation, founded in some degree upon his writings under the well known name of Peter Parley, will be enabled to do like good service to our country.
There is also among our passengers, the Hon. G. W. Wright one of the members of Congress from California, a gentleman of indomitable energy and perseverance, who is said to have traversed, within the last two years, more of the mineral re gions of that newly acquired territory, than perhaps any other American citizen. He has with him, it is understood, a most extensive cabinet of specimens of the rich minerals of that region, with which he expects to tempt the capitalists of Eng land to unite more extensively in furnishing the necessary means for advantageously developing them.
