London, March 25. It is said that the diamonds which her
Majesty had about her on Monday night, at the play, cost
upwards of 150, 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 Delewar, who presented it to her Majesty.
