English Specks.-The "Jobbers" are not entitled
to the exclusive consideration Of rhs Herald, and
therefore propose to show up few of that de-
serving class, known Rookkepers. The subject Of
this article is native of the fast anchored isle he
commenced his education for the clerical ORDER and
his early dreams replete with hopes of high
nown, 10 be acquired by eoquence in the sacred
desk but alas from some sudden and unknown
causes, he inspired the jealous hatred ii his mother
and the consequence was his uHcle disinherted him,
end forced him to abandon his very delightful studies
and ioreso the honors of the gown and wig, and ae-
cept clerkship in London, which station he full
ly competent TO fulfil with credit TO himself; but,
whether from inclination from disappointment and
bhghted hopes, we cannot say he neglected his duty
and INDUCED IN rowdylsm and excuses among the
Cypnans OF that great metropolis such an extent,
that his criminal offspring became inmates of the
London Aims House, and from those and several
other very mysterious causes his emigration became
matter of necessity Ire arrived in this great Babel
and commenced look out for employment We
will pass very lightly his union with his present
amlable wife, and the glowing pictures of wealth he
portrayed to WIN her-Pictures as false and base as
they were alluring-nor will we enter infinitely into
the consequences of that marriage to her, lest we
should add something 10 the bitterness ofthcse pangs
which writhe her BOSOM or multiply the tears Of an
sgish that flow copiously, the result OF his open
and unblushing ndulgences with harot wives and
minated concubines our chief business 49, with his
conduct in his present vocation and daily walk he
is treacherous frend-oHe who, with honeyed ac-
cents upon the tongue and the smile of friendship on
his lips, clenches the gstening dagger in his bosom
and nurses the poisoned chaoe that is fostering in his
heart; his duplicy is only surpassed by his malign
ty. Let no such man be trusted for such an one
is dangerous agent in the management of RESPONSE
BILE and portant affairs, where any advantage can
be obtained from the possession Of the confidence Of
his principals, by dishonest agent. Beware! gentle
men employers! His subsersency (which is spaniel
like) 10 his principal employer, is equaled only by
his sianderous imputatlons and calumnious nuendos
against the junior partner.
Cease viper, y@u bite sgaiBst a file"
The same bitterness of feeling and the same mali
cious conduct is manifest towards every young man
engaged in the. concern, whose talents and energy
render them sufficiently prominent TO appear in the
way OF his own aggrandlzement his egotlsm and
vanity are conspicuous features in his characters his
wit Heaven the mark y is pure at least for il is
carefully extracted from the earliest writings of
Sir Joseph Miller his superficial knowledge Of the
sciences and classics may be a,ested by reference
10 the columns Of the Herald for he is the getter-up
of the Characteristic Sketches Of Drummers, job
bers, Loungers &e.--in short he sometimes hobs tor
that eaning. hypocritical foe of the canine Species
the "Journal of Commerce" This genus is the con-
iideniial clerk Of highly respectable silk jobbing
house. in Pearl street. Wall street. and he may
expect TO hear the roar of our artillery again.
WASTED SYMPATHY. IS a paragraph now
running the round Of the newspapers, bearing the
head this article. II refers 10 that excellent
and gifted lady, Mrs. Slgournsy; and also has refer
snce TO her pscunary affa RS. The man whsm chance
has made the husband of this excellent lady has
drates Ia lecture the of this country because
lts conductors expressed their regret that circum
stances had caused her husband cell her beautiful
and iavore rural residence nea Hartford. Now the
poor, jealous empty headed man may vapour and
founder as he pleases he may say he is rich and
If he u.s. he ough, 10 be dscountenaneed by every de-
cent man. He can have no neari-no feeling-no
sensibilty! Fer he has sold the iavore residence
of his wife, mere miserable speculative impulse
And therefore the sooner he calls upon the rocks and
hills him, and reiires obscari,y the bet
ter for his fame.
