St. Petersburgh May 19/21st 1842.

My dear Sir,

You find hereby a small parcel of seeds,
a certain number of which is of new introduction and
gathered by Dr. Schrenck in the Kirgees territory. I delivered
some months ago to the Minister of the United 
States, Mr. Todd a copy of the description of the new
species collected by that traveller, which I hope you have
already received. When Dr. Schrenck will be back from
his travel I can get to the distribution of the Duplicate
of his Herbarium and I hope to be able to communicate 
to you a good number of them.

I remain most faithfully
Dear Sir
Your devoted servt [servant]
F.E.L. Fischer
