PORTRAIT OF HIS MAJESTY.—InS MAJESTY,
immediately after his Coronation, commis-ioned
Sir T. LAWRENCE, President of the Royal Aca-
demy, to paint a new Portrait of him in his Co-
ronation Robes, and seated in St Edward's chair,
with the Crown of England upon his head, and
the Sceptre in his hand, as he appeared enthroned
in the Abbey. The Picture, which is of great
magnitude, to admit the various concomitants, is
already far advanced, and probably will be the
most successful from the pencil of the President.
It promises far to excel in magnificence and splen-
dour the famous Picture of the POPE, by the
same Artist, belonging to his MAJESTY. When
finished, it is the, intention of his MAJESTY to
present duplicates of it to various Corporation
[Jails in the United Kingdom.

The. Portuguese Cortes have addressed a Procla-
mation to the inhabitants of Brazil, calling upon
them to dispatch Deputies to assist in completing
the frame of national Representation. The great
difficulty of both Spain and Portugal is colonial
arrangement; and this difficulty is so connected
with the nature of continental colonization, as to
be nearly immoveable.
