EMBELLISHMENTS. A Portrait of the Right Honourable LADY EMILY FEILDING, engraved by COCHRAN, from a Painting by KIRKBY. A beautiful coloured whole-length Portrait Figure, in an Evening Dress. TO SUBSCRIBERS AND CORRESPONDENTS. The letter dated Sunderland, from "One of the first Subscribers to LA BELLE ASSEMBLEE, in 1806," affords us great and sincere pleasure. It will, we are sure, be gratifying to the writer to know, that his ideas respecting the portraits of the respective female branches of the Royal Family are precisely our own, and that we are exerting ourselves to carry them into effect. The loan of a portrait of one of the illustrious ladies to whom he alludes, by an artist of the first eminence, has been most obligingly promised us. If he can promote our views respecting any of the others, we shall feel truly grateful for his attention. Can" GEORGE," who takes so kind and lively an interest respecting our Picture Gallery of the Female Nobility of Britain, assist us? If he can, it will confer upon us an important obligation. GEORGE will be pleased to hear, that Sir Thomas Lawrence's admirable portrait of one of the ladies alluded to, will, in the course of a few days, be in our possession. Rejoicing in the happy restoration of its author's health, it was with no tame feelings of satisfaction that we received the exquisite poem of "The Ocean Bower," by our kind friend "L. S. S." It is hardly necessary to say, that it shall next month enrich our pages. 66 Besides her "Maid of the Raven Tress," which appears this month, we have the pleasure to announce the receipt of a Song," "An Address to Erin," and " Stanzas," by our fair young correspondent "E. M. P." "Stanzas," by "MRS. H-," shall, if practicable, appear next month. "The Return," by "E. C." will, probably, be inserted. We like not OSSIAN-at second-hand. The request of the writer of "Thoughts on Dinner Parties," has been complied with. We regret that his letter did not reach us at an earlier period of the month. Our friend" GREGORY SCRIBLERUS" has, we hope, received from us a private communication. We are sorry that the favours of our Blackheath correspondent are not in the list of accepted articles. He must not be offended at our having returned them. We regret that "The Last of the Battles" is not adapted to the poetical department of La BELLE ASSEMBLEE. "Home Re-visited" contains some sweet little touches; but it is much too long, and, upon the whole, deficient in interest. The humour displayed in “The History of an Unfortunate Foreigner," is not to our taste; the paper shall be returned. We hope for the pleasure of inserting "The Haunted House" in our next. We must take leave to return "The Sultana and her Slave, a Turkish Fragment," to its fair author, with a suggestion, of which we hope she will be able to avail herself. We shall examine the tale entitled "Woman's Love," and communicate with our friend W. C. S., on the subject. A bookseller shall be consulted on the subject to which he refers. "Love, Jealousy, and Revenge, a German Tale," shall experience our earliest attention. Symptoms of Foresight, &c." though clever, are not suitable. "Hints for a Fashionable Dictionary," if not already in print, are made up of very stale ideas "A Prig," has already been published in a weekly paper. We do not like to be triffed with. "Early Rising "is neither more nor less than a coarse abridgment of a vulgar, though witty paper, which appeared some years ago in Blackwood's Magazine. Again we say, we do not like to be trifled with. The offensive trash of a "Mother's Advice to her Son," is altogether unfit for the eye of our readers. How could its intelligent author think of sending it to us? And why must we so frequently have occasion to remark, that our Gentlemen correspondents seem to forget that they are writing for Ladies? It is impossible to suppose that the writer of " Miseries of being Tall" could, for one moment, expect that such a production would be allowed to insult the readers of LA BELLE ASSEMBLEE. When one of our ablest correspondents shall have read the present page, we wish him to answer this question :-Does he feel that he has acted fairly by us?
