HER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO FRANCE.

(Front Galignani.)
The approaching visit of the Queen of England
suggests to the Pays some observations alike marked
by good taste and justice. No one, indeed, who
hears the manner in which the coming of the Royal
party of England is spoken of by every class of per-
sons in Paris can entertain the slightest doubt that
the reception of her Majesty will be in every re-
spect worthy of so chivalrous a nation as France,
and that the enthusiasm of the Parisian population
will nobly respond to the acclamations which hailed
the presence of the Emperor of the French during
his late visit to London. The Pays, in bearing
the fullest testimony to the excellent feeling which
prevails in Paris on the subject, makes the follow-
ing observations

" The visit of the Queen of the ;United Kingdom of
Great Britain is the last seal affixed to the alliance
of the two nations. In this point of view, it must be
considered as an event, the trace of which will remain in
history. The enthusiastic reception which awaits her
Britannic Majesty will be, on the part of our fellow-
citizens, not only an act of courtesy, but it will be a
political demonstration. All the marks of respect which
the French people will lavish on the august ally of the
Emperor will be justly considered as a fresh and striking
adhesion given to the policy of the Anglo-French al-
liance. In feting Queen Victoria, we shall celebrate
the reconciliation of two great nations that have ex-
tinguished in a glorious fraternity of arms the remem-
brance of old discords, the seeds of which are for ever
destroyed. The just popularity which is attached to
the person of Queen Victoria will, besides, be expressed
in such a manner as to leave no doubt in her Majesty's
mind as to the sentiments which she inspires. France
loves and respects the Savereign who presi3es with so
much wisdom and dignity over the destinies of Eng-
land, and who, from her throne, sets an example of
every virtue. The cause of the sanguinary quarrels
of the middle ages disappeared with feudaiity, and the
war which, at the beginning of the present century ab-
sorbed a part of the activity of the first Empire, had its
origi❑ in the political situation of the old government,
prior ti the French revolution. Forty years of uninter-
rupted peace between France and England have effaced
the last bitterness of the struggle ; a new generation has
risen up, which has not imbibed the milk of national
hatred. The moment had arrived to repair by the cor-
dial association of the two most powerful nations of
Europe the mischief which their enmity had caused in
the world. This great idea the Emperor Napoleon and
Queen Victoria have a,ccmplished. Thanks be to them
for it ! Lord Clarendon said the other day in the House
of Lords, to characterise the intimate union of the two
countries, that there was no longer either a Free,ch or
an English Cabinet, but a single ono; the members of
which sat indifferently at one or the other side of the
Channel, We can in our turn say that there will be
only one people from the day when Queen Victoria shall
have made her entry into Paris.'
