Ihave said of English wome that they are the bept fireside companions ; but I am afraid thatiny remark must apply to a very small portion of the com munity at large. The number of those who arc wholly destitute of the highest charm belonging to social companion1 ship is lamentably great ; and these re marks would-ocvcr have been obstruded upon the notice of the public, if tliere were not strong symptoms of the num ber becoming greater still. Womon have the choice of many means of bringing their principles into exercise, and of obtaining influence. xth in their own domestic sphere ; uid in so ciety at large. Among the most impor tant of these is conversation an engine so pdweruilupon the minds and chara- l - 1 tor m mankind hi general, that beauty woes hctore it. anu wealth in compari son is but leading coin- If matchmak ings were indeed the. groat object of hu man .life, I should scarcely dare to make this assertion, since few men choose wo men for their conversation where wealth or beauty are to be had; I must, how ever, think more nobly of the female sex, and bebeve them more solicitous to main tain affection after the match is made than simply to be led to the altar, as Wives whose influence will that day be laid aside with their wreaths of white roses, and laid aside for ever. II beauty or wealth have been the bait in this connexion, the bride may gather up the wrea;th of roses, and place them again upon her polished brow; nay, she may bestow the treasury of her wealth without rescue, and permit the Jinsband ot her choice to " spoil her goodly lands to gild his waste," she may do what she will dress, bloom or de scend from affluence to poverty-but if she has no intellectual hold upon her husband's heart, she must inevitably be come that most helpless and pitiable of earthly objects a slighted wife. How pleasantly the evening hours may be made to pass when a woman i who can converse will thus beguile i the time. But. on the other hand, how wretched is the portion of that man who dreads the dullness of his own fireside ! who sees the clog of his existence ever seated there the same, in the deaden ing influence' she has upon his spirits - to-day, as yesterday, to-morrow, and tlie next day, and the next ! Welcome, tliriee welcome, the often invited visitor who breaks the dismal dullness of the scene. AlS'LCliOTE OF BUUIINGTON, THE Famoi s Pickpocket. At one of the innsic meetings in St. Martin's Church, for the benefit of the Leicester Infirmary, I noticed a tall handsome man, in a scariot coat, with a gold button-hole in a black collar, the lashion of the day, moving with a gentlemanly-like air. This person proved to be tlie celebrated SickpocKet, uarrmgion. in giving up ie middle aisle he was invited to the Mayor's pew, and sat lctween Miss St John and Mr. Ashby, of Quenby, our late member of Parliament. One of the plates was held at the door by this lady and gcuueman, and when Mr. Harring ton laid his guinea upon the plate hq was kindly thanked by his new acquain tance, and passed on with a graceful bow. Tlie gentry who held the plates letircd into the; vestry to aid their con tributions, and when Mr. Ashby would have placed his ten guiucas on the plate, to his ujfer isttnushmcrit they had flown trom his pocket. After considerable amazement the mystery was explained by one frf the compiiy remarking that Miss St. Jolm's pocket was turned inside out ; and that the elegant gentleman who sat between them had helped bun .self to the subscripton he liad put on uie ptaic ana someming Dcswes. - it 18 saia tnat uamngton taciutated nis opera tions by instruments, which he made for the purpose. I recollect a circumctanee of this kind. v . v . ' He waited upon a surgical instrument maker, and ordered a pair of scissors oi a curious form.

I'nmtlttH Q Dtkik DEATH ON RATS I A genius may be every day seen in our streets, sometimes stationary, some times progressive, supporting a long pole which ascends above his head, and on which is acrescent-formed sign-board of a lead ! ground, on which is , painted m white, legible letters, the cabalistic phrase, "Death on Rats'' -the true in terpretation of which is, that he, the sole holder and sign-exhibitor istheau thorf inventor, Bole patentee and exclu sive vendor of a certain preparation, done up in small, circular tin boxes, which ia . v... ... , K From a suit or charge in which h M rionth urinii rnfa" i was plaintiff, in the police court yestei day, it would appear that a far different construction was put upon the langua of his sign by the keeper of a Frenc restaurat down town, who was the part defendant a fellow that looked as leai en-eyed as a recently killed calf, and a lardy as a Bologna sausage The rat-exterminator was called on to state his tomplamt, which he did by sayingi that about 9 o'clock m the fore noon, feeling tired moving about, he laid his sign against the wall of defendant's house, by the side of his door : that it had not been long there when defendant came out, sacreing and swearing in a most violent maimer : he first broke his (plaintiff's) rat-sign, and would, only that he had fended oft his blows, have broken his snuff-box, commonly called his nose. To this grave charge, the Frenchman was asked by the Recorder what he had to say in extenuation. " Ah, Moniseur Presidante," said the French restaurateur, his passion still un subdued, u that be one big d n rascal j he conspire wid JeanDulouso to break down my restaurat, and I conspires wid myself to break his head, O d n 1 Jean-Dulouse, Monsieur Presidante he live what you call opposite me : he too keep a restaurat but not half so good steak, not half so good soup, not half so good gumbo, not half so good truffle, not half so good ebery ting as me t he get loafeur to chalk on 'my door, ' fresh dog meat sassengers sold here '--and on my window-shutter, ' stinkiu' fish cookea here, a la catfish hotel, all hour.' Well, Monsieur r resiuante, tms put me m very great, " big passion ; but I say notin I only say, Monsieur Jean Dulouse, you can't come de moon, I means de shine, ober dis infante. I bore all, Monsieur Presidante, till he sends dis here fellow and gets him to stick over my door, Death on Rats ! It was too much -too much, Monsieur Presidante ; it was one insinuation I could no stand, that 1 put rats in my gumbo that I kills rats for tny gumbo ; it ruin the character of my house I, that make the best gumbo ot no body else. U ! Monsieur Presulante, it be one big he to say I death on rats, or even put rat in my fricassee or gumbo." The Recorder perceived that the Res taurateur, when he assaulted the com plainant, labored under the' erroneous impression that he placed his sign at his door at the instance of a rival in busi ness, and with a new to injure his good name as a publie caterer that He did it, in fact, to impress the public with the lj ait USVi 1 vr aaa'wv sv uuuv vv t tit idea that rats were amain iugredient i his fricassees and gumbo, Taking this Into account, he merely fined him five dollars for breaking the lEat-Killcr's sign, and on its being paid. rhrmis5ttd the case.

THE0MMERCIAL. WILMINGTON, N. C. TIIURSAY, OCTOBER 1, 1840. MR. CLAY AND THE TARIFF, Much paios Is ukanby the odmlnlgtratloa presses. I to Induce the world to believe that Mr. Clay Is ia fa vor of the ad valorem duties entirely, and democratic ally orthodox on the .subject pf the Tariff. No won der they desire to have the sanction of his great name for their measures. But if all this be true, why did they so bitterly Oppose him in 1844 why did they at trioute doctrines to him exactly the reverse ofthose now imputed? The truth Is, Mf. Clay was for the Tariff of 1842, and nevor waa in the line of that ab-' stractlon called free trade. He has been justly called the father of the American System a system found ed In protection and our readers have doubtless seen the Impress of his likeness on piece goods, as a com pliment to his friendly feelings towards the manufac tories of his country. There is a letter lately published, from Mr. Clay, to Messrs. Albro, HaVt, A Co. manufacturers of Floor Oil Cloth, at Elisabeth Town, N. J., returning his thanks for a beautiful Oil Cloth, presented by them.- in the course of his remarks Mr. Clay says : " lookine bock, from my retirement, upon my publie career, there is no part of my public exertions which I contem plate with more satisfaction than the support which, throughout the whole of it, I constantly, lealously and faithfully gave to the Industry of my own country. Its prosperity or adversity has been as infallibly mark ed, by the adequacy or inadequacy of protection, as the thermometer indicate! heat or cold. I believe that the system of protection, notwithstanding the oppo sition which It has often encountered, has pushed the nation forward half a century in advanoe of where It would have been, if the doctrines of free trade had al ways prevailed in our public councils. Whether it will be pushed back again, to the same or any other extent, by the tlrlff recently established, which has sought to subvert the previous system, and to embody those doctrines, remains to be seen. I confess thst I seriously apprehend great injury to tho general busi ness of the country, and ultimately to the revenue of the Government. If there shall not be a large addi tion to tho amount of our foreign Importations, the Treasury must experience a large dtfteit. If there should be an addition sufficient to compensate die re duction of duties, the increase must be paW for by an equivalent increase in the vame of our exports, or the balance must be adjusted in specie. I have not the remotest expectation (hat we shall be able to ef fect payment, by additional exportation of the pro ducta of the country. We, in the west, do not be lieve that the relaxation in the BrMnh system of re striction, is going to create any considerable demand for the surplus of our agricultural produce. We shall, I fear, be constrained to resort to the other alternative, In the event of an excess of importations, and pay for them in the precious metals. I need not dwell on the wmnwchJ disorder, the embarrassment In every de- p8"1""1 of business, and the wide spread ruin which would be occasioned by a constant exportation of sp- cle in large amount. We have hati experience enough our own industry has been Inadequate." MR. BANCROFT. Mr. Bancroft is to take the steamer that sails on tht sih of next month, for England, to niter npon hia duties as minister. The Washington Union sars the departure ol Mr. Bancroft and his lady will he deeply felt In the social circles at Wash ington. This is a matter of solemn complore- tion, because it affects the circle of the iemoertxic aristocracy, and not because his absence will retard the wheels of government. If what we bear Is (roe, from the democratic presses, Mr. Bancroft was entirely unfit for the post he held at Washing ton, and in a political view his departure is a bene crown : a sprig has been plucked from the verdant I - laJk of the A ncruan Sooilitv. and the Organ of I Mr. Polk mourns over lbs evsnt; Mr. Ritchie is filled with woful lamentations, which he emits to connection with oatieraof high public concernment n 1 1- I rrrciuu 1 MR.
