On November 16, 1867, when he was set to retire and return to his political career at home, the Chinese government appointed Burlingame envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary to head a Chinese diplomatic mission to the United States and the principal European nations. The mission, which included two Chinese ministers, an English and a French secretary, six students from Peking, and a considerable retinue, arrived in the United States in March 1868. Burlingame used his personal relations with the Republican administration to negotiate a relatively quick and favorable treaty. In a series of speeches across the country, he displayed eloquent oratory to advocate equal treatment of China and a welcoming stance toward Chinese immigrants. </p><p>On July 28, 1868, the mission concluded at Washington, D.C., a series of articles, supplementary to the <a href="/wiki/Treaty_of_Tientsin" title="Treaty of Tientsin">Reed Treaty of 1858</a>, and later known as the <a href="/wiki/Burlingame_Treaty" title="Burlingame Treaty">Burlingame Treaty</a>.

Burlingame worked successfully to include a clause permitting Chinese to become citizens, which was barred by American law.
