PORTRAIT OF M. DE LAMARTINE.

Mr. H. W. Phillips has just brought over from Paris a portrait of the most eminent among French statesmen of the day-the only one for which M. de Lamartine has sat. It is in the painter's studio, at 8 George Street, Hanover Square. The head is a fine one; with much animation, much delicacy and refinement, dignity, and active energy-perhaps some evident "love of approbation." Mr. Phillips has undoubtedly produced the best portrait of Lamartine yet seen in this country.
