THE CROWN JEWELS.

After the exaggerated statements and the barren
contradictions whl& have been published respecting that
=of the Crown jewels which is about to revert to
, the following authentic statement from the official
Journal, published at Hanover, will probably be acceptable :
.. When the Guelph family ascended the throne of Eng-
land in 1714 they took over • portion of the Crown jewels
with them to London. While on • visit which his
George IL pad to hie hereditary dominions in 1751, be
mamba a icier will and teetameet in German, in which he
made the illegoeition that all the jewels which he had
bought with Lid own money, or which he had inherited from
lb eacestens, should be • perpetual Rdei commis, (entailed
is perpetaity) in kis family, and should descend to his suc-
cessor la his hereditary kingdom of Hanover. His Majesty
Kb George 111. presented him consort, Queen Sophia
Charlotte, with various jewels and other articled of value, but
subsequently in two wills—a German one, dated May, 1765,
and an English one, dated July, 1770—he alluded to these
pretiou in a meaner which was open to doubts. Her
Majesty Queen Sophia Charlotte also, In • will made in
November, 1818, settled all the jewels thus presented to her
and all others at that time is her possession on her own
descendants and sunoessees in the hereditary territories
of Hanover. Whoa the two crowns of Hanover and
England be sigeneed by the death of King William
IV, it hismits aceneeryti the jewels that belonged
to Plasoww. In the asgotlat ee that were carried on in

bop* to Qom. Charlotte are entailed and settled on ;the
Crown of Hanover. Now that • bens of decision has been
°biased through the conciliatory disposition shown by the
royel mistime on both sides, the final reparation and setting
aside of the jewels that fell beck to Hanover will be Ample
and not productive of any great loss of time. Although the
Mateensat of a Landon evening paper that the jewels la quer
time are et enonnoaa veins, exceeding a million sterling, is
exceedvely exaggerated, it is nevertheless matter of vty
=satiates:non apart from their money value, that such
y pdaei sowwwire from the heads of glorious ancestors
so well esionleted to add brifliancy to the crown should, thus
revert to our wet packets Royal Howe."
