Nicholas Nickleby and Barnaby Rudge each earned £3000 from Chapman & Hall. The Christmas Carol profits fell short of expectations at £726 against £1000 hoped.

Martin Chuzzlewit paid £200 per month for 20 parts totaling £4000 plus shares in stock and future interest. A short NY Ledger story earned £1000. Sketches by Boz yielded nothing at Old Monthly Magazine. Evening Chronicle pay rose to £7 weekly and later sold to Macrone for £400.
