Both these types of jobs at a lower level are now heavily outsourced to India and other places with cheap labor and good education systems .
To get skills in networking is difficult unless you get certified (which is expensive) , and have a lab environment in which to learn and practise or get sponsorship from someone.
You can easily pick up database skills to a decent level at home from reading and from examples and forums on the internet and you can very cheaply setup an environment with which to practise, especially using open source.
Networking is interesting, but leads to fewer opportunities until you reach architect level - but you need to be very very good.
With databases you can usually find a niche at all levels, especially when combined with good web development skills.
I dont know your individual circumstances, but the chances are that databases would be better for you unless you can afford to do some significant orientation and certification training in networking.

if you like working with Database it is alot of pressure every day to get your database report to your boss

If you like networking then you might have to know someone in order for you to get the jobs in that field

Not too many company willing to hire you for networking unless they know well

Database will last you for longtime
Networking is changing daily and you have to catched up or else you out date yourself

For Salary Database get pay more then networking
Unless you are certified in CCIE in Cisco
According to jobs comparision website
Database has more openning
Network has less and won't last

Both areas are quite lucrative, however you will probably travel more with networking
