London, March 16
It is said that the diamonds her Majesty had about her on
Monday night at the play cost upward of 250,000 L.  The
stomacher, sleeve knots, necklace, ear-rings, and head
ornaments, were clusters of the largest and most valuable
brilliants.  The young Princess Royal dropped from her bosom
a large sprig of diamonds over the box on the stage, which a
Yeoman picked up and gave to Lord Delawar, who presented it
to her Majesty.
