The Royal sherry.

From the London Chronicle.
The last lot OF the kings sherry fetched
a price which might tempt even a royal
cellarer to 60 into the market again. AS a
matter Of fact. the equal OF the sherry sold
yesterday has often been bought under the
hammer at a third OF the price. The gem
eral laughter which greeted the final bid
ding betokened the good humor of the on
lockers. who finally cheered when the ham,
ner came down. Now that sherry liz less
drunk than 1t was the supply left in the
royal cellars is large enough to last many
years. and, for some OF the purposes to
which 1t is put, rather cheaper brand
than any that the late queen laid In will.

The profit for the merchant on

which we believe is quite a re-
