The French crown diamonds.
--During the recent journey of the French Emperor, some of the finest diamonds of the crown were more than once worn, the value of the whole collection being 20,908,260f. The first inventory was made in 1810, by order of Napoleon II., and another was taken under Louis XVIII., on his return from Ghent, to which place his majesty had caused them to be conveyed.
On the latter occasion all the precious stones being removed from the settings were found to be 16,312 in number, to weigh 18,752 carats, and to be of the value mentioned above.
An inventory recently made shows the number, weight and value to be unchanged.
