OUR ALLIES.
THE VISIT OF THEKERSAINT. Not with flying fails and unmasked guns as we picturo them in the past—as tho early claimants for a portion of our shores once came—but in a trim, if small, frigate, grim and modern will the. representative of the French fleet enter our harbour to-morrow. It is a considerable number of years sinco New Zealand last received a visit from a man-o'-war flying tho tri-colour—not, at all events, since the existence of tho entente cordiale. The French Literary Circle propose to appropriate tho officers for Tuesday evening next to entertain them, and on the previous evening, Monday, they are to be the guests of the Wellington Club. Other functions may follow. An official visit is to bo paid her on her arrival by the Harbour Board and the City Council. The Kcrsaint is to be in the harbour until February 7.
