THIS Piirsev.ss Fitriiritiett Wii.i.t ‘m.--The Prinects
Frederick William and the Infant Prince continue Eking
well. .

The Berlin correspondent of the Nord, writing on
Tuesday, says " Preparations for the baptism of the
infant prince are already a 'liked of discussion, and the
presence of queen Victoria and her august Conant is
counted upon. 'Mere is vague talk, too, of the arrival
at the same time, of Another crowned head, but this is
more the ex preiiision of a widi than an authorised state-
ment. I refer to the Emperor of Russia, and certainly
an interview between that monarch and the Queen of
England would contribute to further increase. if that
be possible, the excellent relations which have subsisted,
for the last uluthe this. LetWeell the two courts—thank
to the effort* of Baron Brunnow and Sir John
Crampton."
Th,, prince of Wales is travelling under the name of
" Baron Renfrew."

Among the distinguished company present in the
House of Lords on Thursday afternoon, were the Duke
de Malakoff, tile French .tinbataisolor, with his ne sly.
married ducheisi on his arm. The veteran soldier wet*
the uniform of a mondial of Franc:, with the Legion ..f
Honour, and the duchess a very simple but becomii g
dress, of which the prbdominating colour WM white.
She was shown to a seat int a bark row of the opposition
benches near the gangway, but afterwards removed to •
better ',midden close to the throne, where she was very
cordially greeted by the Duke of Cambridge, who re-
wait/et' in conversation with her for a considerable
time.
The statement which has gone the round of the daily
press, about the visit of the queen to assist at the
christening of her grandchild, in the Prussian capital, is
incorrect. Hut it is expected the Princess Frederick-
William of Prussia will collie to England sometime ill
the spring, to visit her parade.
