Having safely arrived at Petersburg, we have nothing to tell of that romantic city no hints at deep-laid plots, no prison, nor tales of jail-birds tales with salt on them, bien entendu the usual grain. We have hardly mentioned the Nevski Prospekt, which street by ancient right must needs figure in all Russian romance.
