B UCKINGHAMSHIRE. • THE CHARITABLE DONATION& No. 111. Mr. Tsunami Tuseat, Qerk of she Peace for Bucks, states that the missiles of the'Cliarities in that enmity were made in the time of his predecessor in office ; implying. ao doubt, that be is net re• apondble for any inaccuracy or Isfeensality in the return. There are filly-lbw registered Charities in Burks, producing .83,102 16s. io4d. This does not include " the Bridge end Street - Clarify" of Stoney &radioed ; wldeb is replated by a special Act of Parliament, and under the contrast of the Court of Chancery. The most admirable applitatios has been made of the resources of this particular u it is •o managed as not only to improve the comforts of the whole com munity by good roads, bridges, paving, and lighting about Stratford, but affords employment •to the labourer.—Already .83,028 have been expended is terms of the Act ; and £3,482 have been. invested fee further improvements. The clear and satis factory account and management of this fund do ks iak. credit to the Trustees.—The other fifty-three Charities already mentioned. yielding 21,562, are chief, applicable to the purposes of educa tion. cloathing and feeding the poor, beautifying the Parish Churches, and trifling sums to the Clergymen for ippointed ser alolls4lo certain days in the year. Of these, the most important is the magnificent Foundation of the late Sir House Loon, of Ditchley, and afterwards more amply provided by Sir Hamar nutmegs, of Loudon—namely, the " Aykarry Free Scheel.% in which OM hundred end twenty bap are taught &gash Latin, Greek, Writing. and Accounts ; besides being fur rdsbed with books, pens. ink and paper red& Two teachers are likewiie provided for in this admirable estabaduneut,—the gross annual income of the properties bequeathed being 2562 its. ed. Among the Trustees are the Viscount Hastrom. the Earl of Cuesesanua, Lord G. Heuer Caves:mt. the Duke of INSTLAND, Sir JOHN DASHWOOD Km. kc. etc. In Aylesbury there is another Charity called " Hammes affray," yielding 2530 a-year. which is applied—or stated to be applied—thus : " the apprenticing the children of poor inhabitants of Aillesbury and Walton, and furnishing five poor persons residing the hamlet of Walton with coats and gowns." There is yet another in that favoured town, called " Bseroso's Cherity"—not the Duke of Buireoes—which produces 2274 ls. foe the re lief of poor persons of Aylesbury aforesaid, with the reparation of highways." Thus, in Aylesbury alone, they are blessed with 21,1615 12x. ed. of the 211,552 of the County Charities ; and we have every causeto believe that the mart is knotty applied to its legitimate and most useful purposes. There is a Charitable Foundation in Bucks of which, from the information before us, it is impossible for us to speak in the same laudatory terms. Its amount Is telling—only 210 6s.—and our ream for pointing wit is that we believe it ought to be ten tam that amount. It is sailed the " PILIIIOSs Tim Louis end Ten's gorses." The lands consist of tweistrasses ewes ; and there are seems Murata—paying 210 Is !! ! The memorial about It is a leisured one—if half the time bestowed upon it were bestowed on labouring weeders of the laud. we believe that one acre would pay more than 210 6s. We have the best evidence for concluding that •' Lands" in Bockingbanssidre are worth something more than sewn shiftier an acre !—For instance—" Hu.s.'s Clarity" at Bier ten consistscomsistsof ES acres; and it yields 2140. " Hoeonton's CU rify," for the Poor of the Parish and repairing the Church, eon. slats of 12 acres ; and It yields 2111.—" Mann GUINN', Clarity" is a damning proof of the abuse of the" Przwoualor bereave acres of land produce 212, for aged and infirm perms. At Stead Stratford, Mr. Jos Roams pays AI for 11 acre, which is given for the relief of the poor ; and • Smog Bowes's Clerity.* for re. Bering and setting to work poor people in the parishes of Stratford, milks of 40 acres, which pay a sem of 270.—" Dui:- comes astrity." okay fee the purposes of education in the Parish of Broughton, ceasista of 1 to and 16 acres of land. which yield 440 ; the " antacit Lams" Charity in the Parish of Burabam, extending. in detached pieces. to $ acres, yield 216 7s. • " &moon and Offnon's (Nei*? befog 6 acres of land, yield Ala us. We could go en—but we have quoted enough to thew that lands in Docks are worth more than 7s. an acre—sod to enquire bow it comes about that the " Pranows," 27 acres, and 7 houses, yield no mere than 210 W I The application of the 210 Es. puzzles one ten times more than the thing ItseU.lt is " &speed of to the esesempret and necessary sum of the said town and parish of Pitatesse, and the inhabitants thereof. towards the assists ofantis cannon issralens"—we are sooting theParNeseeserryllepere-oswthee rily happereksa or Waling the said Inhabitants, to be in such name employed and disposed of as by the common comsat at the most Armee, erscient, and mistesstial men of the said pariah."—Really, Mews. SOW N% Corr. Amer, TOMLIN/. Bonsueseza. and Toneznis, should again consult Mr. George V. Knibb, attor ney-at-law, lo Tying—and make all this somewhat more intelli gible to the pubic—who have the best right to know all about it. and shalt know k, too, bye and bye. There is another cha rity called " Hawser's Clarity" which, as It stands on the record, looks fun!! as Wu the Pertese—onest ewes end a Mild arable, oohed at Ms.--but which al present yields nothing that we can and, bat which, nevertheless, is stated to be applied to " iodise:riggers& charitable purposes."—No great discrimlnaden, we believe, is re quired to expend 525. In the parish of Burnham ; but why do not the 71 acres produce more ? By the various criteria already quoted. ,Hawes sae's acres ought to produce 215, and this might be of some benefit. We are well aware that the whole matter is "at the discretion of the Churchwardens and Overseers of the said town and parish for the time being, or the major pan of them, whereof the VICAL Is to be one, and the ViCAll to base the oefund of the possess on of the said lands at the rent ef filtrerre shillings."—Now; we are of opinion, that the Vacs.' would act very wisely in refsising the possession ; and lien, very probably, another would give a fair value for them, for some deiced purpose of charity. In the meanwhile, want of time and eoom prevents our going into a more minute scrutiny of the Becks Charities to-day. In our general review of the Foundations. we may again glance at them ; and our next paper on the subject shall refer to Cambridge. about which Mr. Pmtuaton says " the me moriaietany of them being made out by Illiterate persons, and others so little in accordance with the Act, they are not in a fit state of regittering !!" The Lisbon Mail this day was tby Majesty broOgh • Ins • 's brig Magnet ; sailed on the 1I th October ; by which it seams certain that Don Miguel's Bank, where he cashes, has stopped payment. Vea A Caus, Aua. popr was occupied on the sth of this month by General Barradas, at the head of 3,500 Spaniards, and though this capture may not be considered as important, it cost the Spaniards much blood shed. The General, not thinking it wise to risk a fur ther advance into the country, held a council of war at Tampico, the result of which was, that the Spanish troops should fortify themselves in the conquered country, and wait for reinforcements before they proceeded farther. — They reckon upon those from the Hannnah ; but we learn by vessels from the island of Cuba, which lately arrived here, that Gen. Vives would find it difficult to send from 4,000 to 4,500 men. It is to this that the great con quering army, destined to seise upon Mexico, is reduced ! The republican government purses the most energetic measures to repulse the Spanish army ; and the patri otism and ardour of the inhabitants and the army are powerfully excited. Before the Spaniards landed upon our territory, the Government had sent 800,000 hard dollars to Tampico; but when that event took place, an order was given for their transport to Mexico, here they have safely arrived ; and as the Government have other resources, it is thought there will be sufficient mossy to provide for the necessities of the bate.

Prince LIEV EN, the Russian Ambassador, and Count MAETREW ITS, had a conference yesterday morning with the French Ambassador, at his residence in Port land-place. Mr. VESEY VITZGERALD and Mr. HUSKISSON have arrived at the residence of the Marquis of HERT FORD, Sudbourn Hall, Suffolk, on a visit to his Lord ship. The Noble Marquis is at present entertaining the Duke of WELLINGTON and a select party of Noblemen and Gentlemen.

The eitate of Oakfield and Lochgilphead was sold last week for 70,0001. It consists of 6,947 imperial acres, and includes the fens of the village of Lochgilphead. It also affords three freehold qualifications. The rental is about 2,3ool.—Glaryow Chronicle. The Marquis and Marchioness of STAFFORD left Trentham Hall on Wednesday, for their seat at West hill, near London. The Duke of WELLINGTON has paid into the Trea sury the sum of 1,0251. received by him as Lord War den of the Cinque Ports. Among the items carried to the credit account of the last quarterly return of the revenue, was a sum of 120,1211. received of the West India Dock Company, for the purchase of the City Canal. A very short time ago a Clergyman in the west of Sussex abandoned his wife and family, and went to France, leaving them in great distress. The circumstance was communicated to the Furl of EGREMONT, who drew up a paper, settling an annuity of 251. a year upon the wife. A separation is about to take place in high life be tween a Noble Lord and his Lady who have recently en tered into the matrimonial state. The unhappy differ ence is said to have arisen from the discovery of a letter received by one of the parties from an ertantorata, who likewise is of titled distinction, and united by Hymen's bands to a supposed favourite lover. The discovery al luded to has produced a chain of evidence which, it is said, cannot be controverted. Miss FANNY Ktmai.z.—Another interesting inci dent occurred the night before last, at Covent Garden Theatre, besides the presence of Mrs. SIDDONS to Wit ness the performance of Juliet by her niece. The actors and actresses took the opportunity of presenting her with a beautiful chased gold bracelet, studded with jewels ; and with an inscription stating, that it was given as a slight token of the obligation she had conferred upon them, by coming forward at a time when, but for her, probably, the Theatre midi not have opened; or, if opened, could not long have estetinued so. Miss F. KEMBLE received the gIR very phiefully and thankfully, as a proof of the kind tooling she had inspired, rather than as a merited tes timony of her excellence in the only part in which she bas appeared. It is to be regretted that Mrs. SIDDONS did not shew herself on the night when she attended; for she thus totally prevented the enthusiastic expression of aithadon which must have followed the knowledge that she was present. So strong is the propensity of the Russians to jm limey, that they are guilty of the lowest offences on that account. The observation may appear trivial, but an or dinary Russian will be displeased if one even endeavours to gain the goodwill of his dog. I affronted the com mandant of this town (Yakutsk) very highly, by per mitting his dog to walk with me one afternoon. He expostulated with me very seriously about it. This is not the only instance. I live with a young Russian officer, with whom I came from Irkusk ; no cir cumstance has ever interrupted the harmony between us, but his dogs. They have done it twice. A pretty little puppy he has, came to me one day, and jumped on my knee ; I patted his head and gave him some bread. The man flew at the dog in the utmost rage, and gave him a blow which broke his leg. The lesson I gave him on the occasion has almost cured him.—Life of Ledyard. MAHMOUD 11.—The Sultan has only one son leg, Abdul Medshid, born April 20, 1823, who is the pre sumptive heir. The number of his daughters is consi derable. He has seven lawful consorts and many concubines. If his family should become extinct, his throne will be claimed by the descendants of the late Tartarian Khans of the Crimea, and the family of Choral ' whicklikswise is descended from the famous Gengis Khan of Tartary. THE ARMY The Mowing Garrison Order was boned at Woobelch on the 11th inst.:— The Commandant has great pleasure in communicating to the Regiment, a letter this day received from Lord E. Somerset, K. C. a, Lieut.-Gen. of the Ordnance. Ordnance-011ie. 15th Oct. 1829. So—Having completed the Half-yearly Inspection of the Royal Artillery, I am desirous of taking the earliest opportunity of de claring my approbation of the good order and general appearance of the troops, as well as the correctness and precision with which the field movements were executed. I was much pleased with the attention that has been bestowed on the exercise and instruction of the Repository, and I think it due to the officer in command of the field batteries, to notice the pains that have hero taken to perfect the detachments belonging to them in that part of their duty. The condition and efficiency of the bones of the Horse Artillery are highly creditable; and the riding estabthhment appears to be conducted in a proper manner. I have every reason to approve of the system of interior disci pline established in the corps, the cleanliness of the barrack-rooms, and the regularity with which the men's accounts appear to be kept. And I beg further to express my satisfaction at the good ar. ratigement and management of the medical department, requesting you will be pleased to communicate vie above to the Regiment. (Signed) R.

An order was issued at Vera Cruz, by the Gefe Interino of the canton of Vera Cruz, commanding all Spaniards resi dent in towns and villages to retire 25 leagues into the interior. In the extraordinary Session of the Chambers in the city of Mexico, Pedro Maria Anaya was elected President of the Chamber of Deputies, and Valentia Ferias, President of the Senate. The right of the Eng lish Vice-Consul to use a telegraph which he had in his house, in order to communicate with vessels of his nation which might arrive in sight of the port, was discussed at some length ; and, under the present circumstances of the country, was denied. Bands of malefactors, calling themselves Spaniards, and belonging to the party of the union, have lately shown themselves in the mountains of the Eastern Pyrenees, but their numbers are not considerable. An attack was made upon one of these bands in the arrondissement of Cenet, and several individuals were taken prisoners by the troops sent in pursuit of them. Another band, also connected with the first one, fell into the hands of u Spa nish outpost at Alberes on the 11th inst. and several in dividuals were conducted to Figueiras. A wounded Spa niard, one of the rebels, was found in the mountains, and a Frenchman, who served as a guide to this band, was shot through by a ball. The Russian Ambassador at the Netherlands was about to set out for Italy, when he received fresh orders from St. Petersburg, enjoining him to remain at his .post. Has this circumstance any connexion with the events which are passing in the East, and which seem more than ever to menace the repose of Europe ? It is strongly suspected.—Le Belge. Extract of a letter from New Orleans, Aug. 22 : " Our city is again a prey to the yellow fever : the number of deaths daily augment. Yesterday they were 25 to 30. For more than six months we have bad con tinual rains, which has contributed to extend the fatal malady. A.friend, who visited the Spanish camp yes terday, reports that the troops enjoy good health ; and are waiting an answer from the Captain-General of Cebu. They must stay here until they receive trans ports from the Havanna.' The Colombia packet ship, from New York, has ar rived at Portsmouth, in 21 days ; left Ist October; but the Papers haye not yet come to hand. Letters from Servia, lst October, state that the Greek and Hebrew'houses are purchasing ducats for account, of the Turkish Government, to pay the war contribution. The information given by ourcontemporaries of an Aus trian Loan being contracted for is not a novelty. We an nounced this event as far back as six weeks ago ; when we stated, that an Austrian Loan of four per cent. had been contracted for by the house of Rothschild, " which was not to be made public until a peace took place be tween the Russians and the Turks.' _ The French Papers mention, that a M. Tenequier, a respectable tradesman of Flaquolle, in the department du Var, refused his consent to his daughter's marriage last month with a young man, every other way unexception able, because the intended bridegroom store spectacles ! lie even went so far as to apply to the constituted authorities to prohibit the' match on this very substantial ground ; but as upon investigation all the formalities pre scribed by law had been complied with, his Worship the Mayor declined interfering, and poor M. Tenequier, much to his annoyance, is thus saddled with a short sighted son-in-law. .

THE RvALPt az Kt Nos.—A curious scene occurred at the Argyll Rooms yesterday, during the performances of M. Chabert. A rerson from the gallery publicly chal lenged the performer on the part of a deaf and dumb man, named Lazarus, who was also present. and who has been exhibiting at Whitechapel. M. Chabert called this per son an impostor and a long altercation took place. At length the challenger and his friend descended t t the floor, and Lazarus professed to be ready to take any poi sons, and undergo any experiments of heat attempted by M. Chabert. The latter. professing great contempt for his opponent, referred Lazarus to the College of Phy sicians, who had offered him 5,0001. for the secret, which he refused, as he requited 10,0001. The friend of Li :ants declared that he would exhibit at the west end of London, in order to convinte tie public that he ro4sessed the secret.

The withdrawals of Indigo, as far as the sa!e has proceeded, have beta much larger than usual. In th markets on the Continent there are comparatively few orders, so that prices are expected to be lower. The holders of Indigo do not at all appear to be disposed to accept the prices offered. The pukes obtained at the sale in October, last year, averaged from Is. and Is. 9d. to 2s. per lb. higher than at the present sale. DUBLIN, OCT. 20.—Captain Brig., sot of the Commander of the Forces in Ireland, his been sum moned to College-street police-office, at the instance of Doctor Jacob, a respectable physician, r aiding in this city, for an assault, alb ged to have been com mitted under the fallowing circum-tances :—On Sunday a cabriolet, in which were Captain and Lady Agnes Byng, happened to come in collision in Merrion-row with a car, in which the family of Dr. Jacob were driving; in consequence of which the car suffered some injury.. Dr. Jacob immediately jumped out and followed the cabriolet, one of the horses of which he seized by the bridle, de manding at the same time to know the name of the gentle man who drove. Captiin Byng desired the doctor to let go the reins ; but as the latter refused to do so until be ascertained the name, Captain Byng applied the whip to the shoulders of the doctor, who speedily gave up the reins, and the cabriolet proceeded. Dr. Jacob, with his brother, appeared this day at College-street, and obtained a summons for the attendance of Captain Byng to-morrow at one o'clock, A great stir has been made in consequence of the Duke of Newcastle having given those of his tenants at Newark notice to quit, who voted against Mr. Sadler, at the last election there. TMs sort tf proceeding is by IV) means if uncmxmon occurrence at Arundel. After the elections, when the late Mr. Blake, of Leominster, in this county, triumphed over the Norfolk interest in that town, all the Duke's tenants, who supported that gentleman, had notice to quit. It is generally supposed that Arundel is quite a close borough ; but such is not the feet. The Dukes of Norfolk have always had a very strong party to contend against there ; and, although they have generally prevailed, they have also fre quently been defeated. When Mr. Blake first came forward, in October 1819, on the Blue or town in terest, he was returned by a majority of two to one over the Duke's nominee, Viscount Bury ; and the year following, when four candidates started, two on the Town and two on the Castle interest, he was very consi derably at the head of the poll. Indeed, the result of these two contests pretty plainly convinced his Grace that the inhabitants had not only the inclination, but the power, to have a voice in the election of their Represen tatives ; and, consequently, to prevent future contention, it was shortly afterwards arranged that the Duhe should have the recommendation of one Member, and Me electors the choice of the others.—Brighton Gazette.
