Literary Chronicle review of Compton Audley and linked tales
The Literary Chronicle surveys Compton Audley by Lord William Lennox and a vivid excerpt from Indra by an Indian Officer. It praises writing and character sketches, contrasts aristocracy with mob culture, and includes long scenes from The Abandonment showing Noorun and Tam featuring betrayal, fever, and ritual child care amid colonial settings.

The Hindoo Love Triangle and a Shocking Seizure
Tanfylde faces a broken bond with Noorun and their child amid coercive pleas from Noorun's mother for help to save her husband Ahmad Aly Khan from death. Helen, entangled in a rising Indian drama, is pressed by petitioners to intercede, while Noorun storms out with the infant and accuses Tanfylde of theft as moral threats and family ruin unfold.

Lighted lightship change at Felland lighthouse
Extract from St Petersburgh dated letter reports Felland western coast lighthouses. The wooden tower to be rebuilt in 1841 and only the stone lighthouse will emit a light every three minutes two minutes visible one minute dark. Also notes a thaw and early spring predicted. A Russian musket by Baron Heurteloupe impresses nobles at Chalk Farm with flawless mechanism, reliability, and potential cost savings, seen as superior to existing percussion arms and likely adoption.
