THE NABOB AT HOME.—This novel promises to afford no less amusement to those of our countrymen and women who have closed their career in India, and are enjoying its results "at home," than of valuable and difficult to be procured information to those who are looking to that country as the arena of their fu ture struggle for fortune or fame. Its writer is said to be more intimately familiar with "Life in India" than perhaps any one among those who have hitherto employed their pens on this fertile and entertaining topic ; and the lively mode he has adopted of convey ing to the reader the results of his observation, proves that he is not behind the spirit of his age—when people will not accept even the information they most need, unless it be conveyed to them in the form of en tertainment. The great variety of individuA cha racter introduced into this novel, and the singular and eccentric phases of character that are impressed by a life passed in India, promise for this work a lasting FIRST AR REST UNDER THE popularity.

FOUB O'CLOCK, THURSDAY AFTERNOON.—We have just returned from Stanley, where two men, Samuel Bonsai! (or Bonser) and William Bland (of Heage), have been examined . before Sir Henry Wilmot, Bam, and John Radford, Esq., on the charge of being implicated in the murder of Miss Goddard. They were taken into custody at Heage, on Tuesday evening and on Wednes day were taken before John iadford and Jede diah Strutt, Esqrs., at Belper, when they were remanded till to-day, and this morning were con veyed to Stanley. • • On arriving at Stanley we found a large con course of people assembled in front of the inn where•the supposed murderers were in custody, and the little village was quite in a commotion. The conduct of the two prisoners was very dissi milar. Bonser '(evho is a collier, apparently an active man of about 3?, or 33 years of age, and dressed in fustian troWsers and jacket), conducted him Self with great.,,,sang .froid, and frequently . laughed, attempting a display of innocence and quietude to which his varying colour and forced -den - re:anon!. gave a strong contradiction. Bland (who was • dressed in a blue smock-frock) was very silent and thoughtful; and his conduct pre sented a striking contrast to that of his fellow prisoner. • From the inquiries which we made on the spot, we obtained the subjoined particulars, the chief of which may be relied on as correct; but, of course, as the examination before the Magis trates was a private one, we cannot furnish our readers with copies of the depositions. The par ties implicated in the robbery and murder are, as far as is yet known, the two prisoners, Bonsai! and Bland, and a man (who has since absconded), named Starbuck, alias Holmes. The latter per son is a travelling chimney-sweep, and has fre quently been employed in that capacity at Miss Goddard's. This man, together with another named Domino, with an alias (a tinker by trade), lodged in a notorious rookery at Heage, and it appears cohabited with, or are married to, women of the same class as themselves; and it was through these women, in the first instance, that informa tion of the real murderers was conveyed. The same parties speak also to the two former rob beries at Miss Goddard'sbeing committed by the sltne On Saturday evening, during a conversation between. Domino, Holmes, and their two women, the subject of the murder was introduced; and knowing that Holmes (the sweep) had been con twcted wi:h the former robberies (the fruits of which were shared among a lot of pals),.Domino intimated his suspicions of the guilt of Holmes. To this, at first, he made no reply ;. and Domino (who, if he had not been connected with any of his expeditions, had been specifically invited to join Holmes in one of the robberies at Miss Goddard's) immediately said, " Why, thou showest guilt." He subsequently confessed that he, Bonsall, and Bland were the parties, but that he had notching to with the murder, with which he puticularly charged Bonsall. In con sequence of this, Domino and his woman com municated with Hawkins, the constable, and Bonsai' arid Bland were taken into custody ; Holmes having - made his escape to Leek (it was thought) whither Hawkins, accompanied by Domino, has pursued him. A variety of. articles were found in Bonsali's house, some of which have been identified as Miss Goddard's property, and upon some unbleached calico there were marks of blood. The wife of Bland (who..bad an, infant at her breast) and her mother, were in attendance at Stanley. - The scene was-most distressing._ Mrs. Bland freely acknowledged that her husband ad .7nitted to her a few minutes before he was taken into custody, that he was one of the party, but he denied having any connection with the mur der, stating that he heard the cries of Miss God dard " to spare her life." and was grieved when 'le knew what had taken place. He told her that Hohnes (the sweep) struck the first blow, and lnd that Bbnsall followed it up. She also states that about seveno'clock on the night of the mur der Bonsai! called at their.house, andhe and. her husband went away together. On being taken before the Magistrates, Bland stated that he was innocent of the capital charge, and at the proper time would tell all. Bonsai! endeavoured to be collected,but his face changed colour repeatedly, and on being taken to Miss Goddard's the alteration was very palpable. Miss Sarah Goddard (the survivin g sister) iden tified Bonsall as the man who " looked stern and savage at her," and " shook his fist;" she also distinctly stated that he was the man who knocked her down, and afterwards beat her with a jemmy (an iron instrument). She said she had never seen Bland before, and this fact is cer tainly corroborative of his wife's statement. Miss Goddard inquired anxiously " for the other man"—she wanted to see' " the other man ;" and we understand for the last day or two she has talked frequently about " a sweep." The conjecture is, that the deceased Miss Goddard identified " the sweep " when in her room, and that was the reason why he (or they) murdered her. But this, of course, is merely conjecture. In a day or two no doubt all the facts will be dis6losed. Miss Sarah Goddard, and a girl who was in the house on the afternoon preceding the murder, identified an apron found in Bonsall's house as the one which the deceased wore on thatvery day. • r The partieg were again remanded until to morrow, and were sent to Derby 3aol. In taking them through the village, the yells from the crowd were terrific, and several attempts were made to seize Bonsai!, who would certainly have met with rough treatment had he not been pro tected by the officers. Ile attempted to laugh, but his whole demeanour had undergone a change since his appearance before Miss Sarah Goddard. Bland's demeanour was much the same as at first, though he was considerably moved when he encountered his weeping wife. We hope to be able to announce the capture of Holmes shortly. OTHER BURGLARIES AT DERBY. Between twelve and one o'clock on Wednes day morninir, the 28th ult., the house of Mr. Hinkley, farmer, of " the Ash," between Etwall and Sutton-on-thedlill, in this county, was en tered by three daring villains, who got through the cellar grate. Mrs- Hinkley hearing some one in the house, got out of bed and went to the room door, and, convinced that some one was on the other side, called out " who's there? what do you want ?" After the lapse of a mo ment the door was forced open, and a man en- . tered the room armed with two pistols, one of which he presented at Mrs. H., telling her that " if she did not get into bed again, he would blow her brains out." He then followed her to the bed, in which were Mr. Hinckley and it little boy, where he remained holding a pistol in one hand and a candle in the other, whilst two other men forced open the drawers, &c., with jemmies. From a desk they took about 28s. in silver and a security for 2001. at Messrs. Smiths' bank. Not finding what they wanted so readily, the armed ruffians demanded to know "where their money was—they had more in the house—money they wanted, and money they must have." Mrs. H. persisted that they had no more—that they paid their men weekly, and that they had not sold their cheese. After this the thieves made their retreat. One of the burglars wore a mask. "'here was in the desk from which they took the 285., money to the amount of 701., which fortu nately they did not discov er , Th ere were i n the house two nieces and the mother of Mrs. H., but none of them dare offer resistance. We should have stated that the villains also stole a silver watch, maker's name John Huddon, No. 1,881, with brass seal and two keys attached with a black ribbon. They effected an entrance by taking a pane of glass from the back window. Last night week (being the fair night), a dar ing robbery was committed in the house of Mr. Rowley, Rising Sun, Friar Gate, Derby. It ap pears that about six o'clock in the evening, two young men, to all appearance gentlemen, went to the bar and asked for sonic gin and water. The servant girl was going up stairs when one of them gave a low whistle, and on the girl turning round, he exclaimed "I have a dog somewhere about;" the other "gentleman" added " you seem rather sneaking there with the hot water, fetch us some directly." Shortly afterwards they went away, one of them saying "You'll tell Mr. that Mr. Taylor has been and could not stay any longer ;" and again turning he said—" be sure and remember the name—Mr. Taylor." On ;oing np stairs, about eleven o'clock, the door and window of the s e r vant ' s room we r e found wide open, and on furth er exam i nat i on it was discovered that a chest of drawers had been tbrced open, apparently with a chisel, from one of which was taken a purse containing a 51. Bank of England note, about six sovereigns, and a quantity of silver —amounting in the whold to about 12/. Two other purses and the contents of the drawers were thrown out on the top of the chest. In every room partially burnt lucifer matches were found. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. CITY, FRIDAY EVENING.

I Mr. Lambert made his debut at this theatre last evening in the character of Sir Anthony Absolute. This gentleman has marked features, considerable powers of grimace, and a good voice. He gave IR the conventional Sir Anthony Absolute very fairly, and was judicious enough not to aim at making any new points. He was most successful in the scene in which, introducing his son to Mrs. Malaprop and Lydia, Beverly and Jack Absolute are discovered to be one and the same person. It was rather unfortu nate that he should have chosen the character of Sir Anthony for his first appearance before a London audience. It seemed to challenge a comparison with Parren ; and where is the actor who, in Farren's pecu liar line, can come out from such an ordeal unscathed? Mr. Lambert's style is essentiallydifferent from Farren's, and approaches nearer to Blanchard than to that of any actor we remember. We should say he would do better in farce than in comedy, and there is a heartiness about him which would tell well in the domestic drama. His engagement is undoubtedly an acquisition to the Drury lane company, inasmuch as It'strengthens it in the only line in which it was Wehietl- -Thee-Captain Absolute of An derson, and the Mrs. Malaprop of Mrs. C. Jones, are well known and justly appreciated. Mr. Phelps was the Faulkland, and never have vq.e seen this very ditficu`lt character more effectively pourtrayed. Faulkland, as usually represented, is a sermonizing bore, but Mr. Phelps made him a really interesting character. We felt that he was a somewhat over sensitive but honourable and warm-hearted man, who, notwithstanding all his faults, was deserving of our sympathy. Perhaps in the whole range of acting nothing is more difficult to hit than the line which separates serious comedy from tragedy. In his delineation of the character of Faulkland, Mr. Phelps has shown that he has the judgment and dis crimination to mark the distinction between the two, and, accordingly, his Faulkland is the best on the stage. He was excellently supported by Miss Helen Faucit, who made a most interesting Julia. Mrs. Nesbitt was Lydia Languish, and never had Lydia a more fascinating representative. She seemed quite to re vel in the part. Keeley, as Acres, was very humorous, albeit not quite the Acres of Sheridan ; and Hud son, as Sir Lucius O'Trigger, was clever and lively. A word to these two gentlemen. Did they not in the challenge writing scene interpolate certain passages ? Let them beware of this propensity, and rest assured, that however, clever they may be, they cannot im• prove the text of Sheridan. Mr. Charles Mathews, as Fag, showed how much could be made of a small character by a clever actor. The best acted character in the play, however, was the David of Mr. Compton. Never was warm-hearted, honest,, uneducated, but .not ignorant fidelity, better delineated. It was per fect; and it is worth while to visit Drury-lane if it be only to see the David of Mr. Compton. The house was exceedingly well filled. THEATRE ROYAL, ADELPHI.

The recent death of the Marquis Wellesley (brother to the Duke of Wellington) will render a short sketch of the late father of these distinguished Noblemen acceptable to our musical friends. Though passion ately fond of music from his infancy, he never at tempted to play on any instrument until he was nine years of age. At that time, an old portrait painter came to the family seat, who was a very in different performer on the violin, and persuaded the child that if he tried to play on that in strument, he would soon be qualified to take part in a concert. With this inducement be soon learned some old catches, and soon after, was able to play the second violin in Corelli's sonatas, which gave him a steadiness in time that never deserted him. He adhered to the violin until he was fourteen, lout had always a strong inclination to the harpsichord, from which his sisters constantly drove him, fearful of his 'spoiling the instrument ; notwithstanding which, he contrived to steal intervals of practice. About this time, his father (who was also a musical amateur) de clared his intention of having an organ for his chapel, telling his son that he should have been the organist had he been able to play on the instrument. The organ was built in a year and a half, when the boy sat down at the maker's, and played an extem poraneous fugue in such a manner as to astonish his father and his friends, who did not believe he could execute a single bar of any tune. No instrument is more likely to form a composer than the organ, and his Lordship, from this period, made composition his chief study; but as he had never received any real instruction, he consulted Rosengrave and Geminiani, who, on examining his compositions, told him that they could be of no service to him, as he had mastered all the scientific rules of musical composition. In process of time, his Lordship became so distinguished for his musical abilities, that the University of Dublin conferred upon -him the degree of -Doctor and Professor of Music. His glees will continue to 'be heard and admired as long as a particle of taste for the pure and beautiful in music remains. Amongst the more admired of the late Earl of Mornington's vocal compositions are the glees,of "Here, in cool grot," " When for the world's repose," " Gently hear me, charming maid," " Come, fairest nymph," By greenwood tree," and the catch of "'Twas you, Sir." —Musical Review.

" Sir,—l am directed by the Earl of Aberdeen to traismit to you, for the information of the Committee of Lloyd's, a copy of a dispatch which has been re ceived from her Majesty's Minister at Stockholm, stating that the hull of the "Ingermanland," a Rus sial 74 gun ship, which was wrecked on the Norway co ist, has drifted to a bank, called Syre Sand, about a Swedish mile from the district of the Norwegian coast, termed Lister, and that the wreck is in a dan gerous position for vessels navigating that coast, &c.

It is boldly said by all those who now advocate increasing the power of the priesthood, disguised' under the name of the Church, that they alone can cope with the moral disorders of society, or, to borrow the language of M. DE LA MARTINS, give a soul to manufactures. The Church of England, we are emphatically told, can alone save the State ; and she alone can introduce and maintain moral order in society. Those who maintain . these opinions must be blind as moles, ' and as ignorant. They confine their eulogy to the one Church, and if their doctrine were true, there could be no order in society, no morality, no genuine religion, where that one Church did not prevail. The grotesque absurdity of these mighty praises flashes upon us irrepressible laughter, when we remember how small a por tion of time and space is filled by the English priesthood, and that human society spreads over the globe, and exists beyond the re cords of man. Everywhere and in all time ham society existed, and flourished in various degrees ; the English Church (priesthood) is the creature, as it were, of yesterday ; asid, till within a very short period, was nearly confined to this small island. Yet we are told that society cannot exist and flourish without the priesthood, and dearly must we pay, in our liber ties and our fortunes, to maintain them in power and splendour. At the same time, these imprudent advocates boast of a great present revival in the Church, or of new-born zeal in the priesthood. They tell us that, " the Church has been frozen into the accidental formulae of two hun dred years" since ; and they give us to under stand that, during that period, its great healing powers have been almost dormant. Be it so; what has happened in society, while the Church has been asleep? Has human improvement stood still ? Have not the most wonderful ad vances, both moral and physical, been made within the last two centuries ? Have not our liberties, both civil and religious, grown up and been confirmed within that period ? Does not toleration, in its most enlarged avid beneficial sense, date from less than two centuries ? and has it not been, in spite of the Church, carried out so as to include at length in form, if not yet in substance, the Roman Catholics within the Con stitution 7 Have not the last remnants of serfdom, without th© especial help of the priesthood, been swept away within that period ? Has not liberty been given to the slave, and has not the accursed slave trade been reprobated and branded by the o w f hile instrumentality of men who did not derive their humanity and morality from the Church? W ar has been humanised, and law has beoelndmade less unjust, less sanguine a" morals, te Church has been frozen in it s been made for multe. In every department in opposition igreat e lastimprovements2oo years, havean d made w i t h_ to the Church. now+ it might during that period, as the Times lave been avers, asleep for good, it was active in mischief; for the priest hood, holding fast by the love of a past age, and must be, at all times the enemies were, of social improvement. While the Church was asleep the North American colonies grew into power, and have now established with England an extensive com merce, which binds the two greatest and freest nations of the world in peace, whatever may be desired by their rulers. Trade has within two centuries done much to soften national asperities, and connect all mankind into one happy brother hood. Art has given us the steam-eng,ine, and science has -unveiled the true form of the globe. Spinning mules, safety lamps, and gas _lights, with a crowd of other useful inventions, have added wonderfully to the power, and, we be lieve, to the happiness opf man during the slum berit the priesthood. So vast has been the prop in knowledge during the last two cen turies, a d so astounding the inventions of art, that more marvels, we believe, are crowded into i that period of history, than into all the prior ages of the world. While the Church, there fore, according to its advocates, was asleep, so ciety has made prodigious advances, both moral and physical. We cannot say much for its progress since the Church had its revival. As the priesthood have increased in zeal, the people have fallen into poverty. If their moral influence should be felt any where it is in Parliament, where they have seats, and where their votes place Members ; but nowhere is injustice more gla ringly, systematically, and unblushingly per petrated than in Parliament. The Bishops of OX. FORD, and EXETER, and LONDON, in their burn ing zeal to reform the people, utterly forget to reform themselves. Corn-laws to keep out food, when the population is exceeding the home supply, and new Poor-laws to make the people feed themse:ves, are nearly coeval with the boasted revival of priestly zeal and Church discipline. From the unscrupulous demands' of the clergy dissension and strife, in the form of Church-rates have sprung up in nearly half our parishes. Judging from the examples or other countries, and from the condition of' our country at present, we are inclined -to say that the increase and the activity of the priesthood are rather signs of corruption and decay than of living health and vigour. If there be no other means of rescuing our people from physical and moral degradation, as the Tories say, than the agency of the Church--if that alone can raise the physaal anditiorta COW" dition of the people — . then must England speedily tread the downward path of Italy, and English Filicajas will, ere long, have to lament over beauty and wealth, which tempt the spoiler, while her sons will want. union and energy to resist him. It is now about twelve years since the first railroad was opened in England, and at present we have, probably, not far short of a thousand miles of such roads completed, and in use. They' have been constructed to a considerable extent in Belgium and Germany, but in Fiance none have yet been completed except the short line to Versailles. It has recently been said that no contractors will undertake to make the railroad to Belgium, the French engineers are so ex tremely precise and fastidious, while the line between Rouen and Paris is to be nearly half completed by English bands and English capital. We rejoice amazingly that our countrymen are contributing to the prosperity of France; but do not these facts indicate a great slowness and re luctance to advance in our enlightened neigh bour ? France is far surpassed by Belgium and Germany, while England herself is probably surpassed in this respect by the United States of America. What is the cause of this slowness in France ? We believe it is mainly to be found in what some persons call the goodness of its Govern ment. It regulates everything. It provides for so much that it puts an end to individual enter prise. The Government cannot possibly per form all things; and yet such is its system, or such its jealousy, that it will not allow the people to do anything except under its direction. We inserted on Wednesday an account of the slow progress in completing the Artesian well at Grenelle, in consequence of the Government having made a regulation that every grant by a municipality must be confirmed by a Minister. " Under this system," it is said, "a town cannot make a new street, or a new market, or appoint a manager to a theatre, without the consent of the Minister, and months sometimes elapse be fore this can be obtained." In France the muni cipalities regulate a much greater number of • matters than our municipalities, and what would beCome of us if every alteration in our towns — every grant from the funds of every borough and every parish, must be approved of by Sir JAmas GRAHAM or the CHANCELLOR of the EXCIDIQUEII? The endless intrigues to which such a system must give rise, employing all the time and talent of the nation, not in making improvements, but in seeking the favour of a Minister, is QUO of its evils. Another is, that it makes individuals help less ; and whenever a work is to be achieved which requires combination, they can do nothing but flee to the Government for aid. The•system may be good for the rulers—it emasculates the people. We tender these remarks to our neighbours in the best and most friendly spirit. We wish to see France flourish in peace, increase in trade, and contribute her full share, by her own progress, to the general improvement. French journalists, we are afraid, are jealous of the great ness of England. They see our language spread ing by our colonies over the habitable globe; they see our shipping crowd every sea ; they see the comparative feebleness and littleness of French trade; and they jump to the conclusion that their backwardness is caused by our pro gress. They accuse us of all kinds of secret en mity, and openly say that our humane zeal in suppressing the slave-trade is only a pretext to vex, cripple, and destroy, the mercantile marine of France. We honour in them the desire for commercial greatness as we honour it in our own country men; hut as we are sure that our success does not depend on the regulations of other Governments, so the French may be assured that their condition is not in any manner the consequence of the conduct of England. Their laudable wish should take another direc tion. They should begin at home. They should repress and curb the operations of the French Government and encourage individual enter prise. They should refuse, rather than court, the interference of the Ministry in all the affairs of life. When they have set themselves free from the thraldom of their own bureaux, they will soon lose all pretexts to complain of Eng land. By the enterprise of individuals nations are made prosperous, and the acts of the Go vernment will never till the fields or load the ships of France. propose to shorten their hours of rs.A.Nr At FOUR O'CLOCK.

To make the practice of closing at four o'clock a good legal custom, it must be established for some time, and must be acquiesced in by those having claims on the bankers.

FLOATING BREASWATER.—In consequence of the reduction in the duty on cork, Captain Tayler has u;ed it for increasing the buoyancy of his floating breakwater in lieu of the small air vessel attached to the caisson, and it is not only cheaper, but not liable to be injured. He also uses Ir. Jeffrey's glue with treenails, by which means he does away with all from bolts.—Plymouth Journal.
