Debates over Lord Ellenborough and Afghan policy
A critical review of Parliament's Afghan policy and Lord Ellenborough's conduct. The piece argues the Governor-General pressed a retrograde withdrawal from Kandahar and Jellalabad, constrained by dispatches and resisting prisoner liberation, and contends a vote of thanks would wrongly celebrate that approach.

Arrival of the Caledonia gives mixed Atlantic dispatches
Reports from the Caledonia describe a challenging Atlantic passage with headwinds and delays from Boston departure to Halifax. The bulletin surveys U.S. politics on tariffs and debts, Oregon, and the Somers affair, plus trade gloom in Manchester and Leeds. A London inquest into John Wright’s death cites temporary insanity after a money scheme and self harm.

Drury air shows a thin crowd for She Stoops to Conquer
A Drury Lane program failed to draw patrons as snow sleet and a north wind kept audiences away. The revival of Goldsmiths comedy featured Compton as Hardcastle and Miss Nisbett as Miss Hardcastle with strong supporting turns. La Gazza Ladra followed with Miss Sabilla Novello and Miss Horton in key roles. A note criticizes Schlora's Bijou Almanack gag and mentions Mr. Macready's benefit on Friday. The evening also offered a Shakspearian revival and Comus with a strong cast, plus a Sonnambula ballet at CoveNT-Garden.
