Qualifications of Sensational Writers

Qualifications OF Sensational Writers.
The London Saturday Review
says:
The author or authoress need never
despair of fame who has his taps OF
mental misery well turned on, and
stretches at least one female charac-
ter perpetually ON the rack. 1t is q
proof of fine sensibility to be pleas
ed with such agonies on paper; and
cross purposes, misconceptions, tears
and the enmities of lovers stir the
public's soul. The pleasure it takes
in contemplating the misery Of ficti.
tious characters is decidedly genuine.
Imperial Rome enjoyed its dying
gladiators, and piOus Spain relishes
its bull-fgl,ts. We are far more
civilized than either, and confine our
selves to less brutal sport Of inter
esting ourselves In the fictitious
cruelties practiced on paper by i'm
aginary lovers upon one another.

Let these clubs be composed of men

And sees the golden time return.
