Sensation Artteies.--Oar citizens observed,
on getting up yesterday moruing, new batch
of incendiary writings on various walls about
prominent thoroughiares. The curiosity of
the crowd was room satistisd, and the obnox.
ions writings being early etsaoed, things sub
sided into their usual channel. The author Of
the obnoxious quotations understands the art
OF chirography very well; yet, in his manner
OF proceeding, he resembles the hired assassin
Ivy stabbing in the dark. The despicable ma
ture OF sucn scamp would prevent him from
seeking qualification of his thirst for noto-
fieiy in any other than the sneaking and cow
srdly way which he has adopted.
