Tallow and Lard.

Our attention has been called by com.
mercial friend to the large consumption of
rallow in England and TIE interruption OF
her supplies during the agitations going on
il the present state Of the Atlantic. 1t ap
pears from a bushes circular now before us
that the imports of Tallow last year into
England from Russia amounted to 95000,'
GOO ID s., being 73 per cent Of theentire i'm
ports from all countries, and equivalent TO
about $50, 900 barrels and tIerces Lard .---
Itwould require not less than 1000 900
hogs to produce this large quantity of Lard
and this ID nearly double the entire product
of this country for commercial purposes.
War is now actually in existence between
England and Russia, and as long as It con
tinues, the commerce. between the two coun'
ties must be entirely suspended. 1t is we'll
known that Lard is and has been used to a
great extent as asubstitute for rallow. when
the latter is short supply and prices are sbou,
equal-but as Tallow is now much dearer
than Lard, this substitution of American
Lard must be very great, ana with these
figures before parties interested they may
form some idea of its probable great en-
hancement in price. The circular to which
we refer is that of Messrs. Sawyer, Wallace
& Co., New York, and their remarks on The
subject are as follows:
Lard is lower, but being kindred to tai
low, it CAN hardlyfail to be materially affect.
ed for the better sooner or later by protract
ed interruption of commercial intercourse
between England and Russia. The former
country imported from the latter, last year
95 1000, 900 lbs. of tallow, w,---72 per cent o
the entire imports from all countries. anC
equivalent to about $50, 900 barrels lard
She also derives from the same source "a

interior during the winter months by agent
Of English houses. and forwarded to tht

summer: The usual arrangements for Sc

MISCHIEF MAKER.

0! could there in the world be found
Some little spot ofhappy ground
Where village pleasures might 60 round
WilhSutths village tattlingi
How doubly blest that place would bs,
Where all might dwell in liberty,
Free from the bitter misery,
Ofgossips endless prattling
II such spot were really known,
Dame Pelss might claim it as her own,
And in it she might fix her throne,
Forever and for ever.
Therelike queen might reign AMI live,
While every one would soon forgive
The little slight they might receive,
And be offended never.
'Tis mischisf-mlkers that removs
Far from our heart the warmth Of love,
And lead US all to disapprove
What gives another pleasure;
They seem to take ones part-but when
They've heard our cares, unkindly then
They soon retail them all again,
Mix'd with the poisonous measure.
And then they've such a cunning way
Oftelling their ill.meant tales, they say
"Don't mention what said, pray,
lwould not tell another"
Straight to your neighbsr's house they 90,
Narrating everything they know,
And break the peace of high and low,
Wife, husband, friend and brother,
Oh! that the misunderstanding crew,
Were all reduced to one or two,
And they were painted red or blue,
That every one might know them!
Then would our villages forget
forage aud quarrel, fums and fret,
And fall into an angry pet,
With things SO much below them.
For It's a sad degraded part
To make another bosom smart,
And plant dagger in the heart
We ought to love and chsrishf
Then let US sVermore ba found
In quietness with all around,
While friendship, JOY and peace abound,
And angry feelings perished!
