FRAScE.-The London papers announce that the
Emperor Napoleon and the Empress will arrive in
England, on visit to the queen, in the course of
the month Of APRIL. The Times correspondent
says:
The rumor Of visit of the Emperor of the French
to England, has often been circulated since the al
lance between the countries, and is at last likely to
be realized. The visit has been decided within the
last few pays, and in official quarters it is affirmed
that it will take place on Easter Monday. As for
hejourney to the Crimea nothing more can be said
than that it is likely to depend the turn matters
take at Vienna, and if it be true that the difficulty
about Sebastopol will be removed otherwise than
by stornng aud capture there is no reason why His
Majesty should undertake SO fatigueing journey,
not without risk in its execution and far from GER
tain in its results letter from Toulon states that
the Imperial yacht Refine Hortense will not be COM
pletely fitted up before the end of the month and it
is therefore thought there that should the Emperor
proceed to the Crimea as has been affirmed, his de-
parture will not take place 80 soon as some Jour-
ras have announced.
The Morning Heroh says, awe are informed on
good authority that the Emperor of the French has
agreed to send $4,000 additional troops to the Cr-
if it should be necessary after the Vienna Con-
gFess, the condition that England shall find YES
sells to convey them. Emperor Louis Napoleon
and the Empress will arrive in England on a visit
to Her Majesty Queen Victoria, on the 10Th April
