Decline of RiIIinosoa+..

Billingsgate, whose decline in rheto- ric has already been noted, has de clined also in other ways since Queen Elizabeth appointed 1t "an open place for the landing and bringing in of any fish, corn, salt stores, victuals and fruit (grocery wares excepted)." Stow gives the list more fully, as including fish, both fresh and salt shell fishes, salt, oranges, onions and other fruits and roots, wheat and rye, and grain of divers sorts for the service of the city and the realm djoining''-which sug- gests the contents of village general shop. In William HIS reign Billings gate was limited to a free and open market for all sorts of fish," and 1t was after this that it's reputation for language grew up, alluded to by Pope: There strtpt, fair Rhetoric languished on
 the ground;
 His blunted arms by sophistry are borne, And shameless Billingsgate her robes

 Employers speedily learned the superiority of his training, and the demand for Huntsinger graduates it greater than the supply. They make good as those from no other business school do. You can do what they have done.

PROBATION OFFIOER.

At meeting of the Board OF Police
Commissioners of Richmond Monday
nigut an officer WAS detailed as probs-
ton officer. In his hands will lie Prac-
ficAlIy the salvation OF sill the consii'u'
tiousl drunkards OF the city. He must
observe, follow and report on every case
of habitnal drunkenness which may
appear in the Police CJurt. Under the
present ordinance an opportunity to
reform will be given to every man who
ia brought to court on the charge OF
drunkenness, snd it will be the officer
duty to SEQ that the man makes the
most of the opportunity. If the drunk
ard fails 10 avail himself Of the help
offered, it means a jail sentence. II,
on the other hand, it is seen that lac 10
aryiug to "mske good" every aid Will
be given to him.
The movement on the part OF The
Richmond Police Board is in the proper
direction. The Police Commissioners OF
Alexandra rosy or may noe follow the
example of the capital city in sFPolp'-
ing a probation officer, but the members
of the police force should be held re-
sponsibls for the enforcement Of the
provision of The Byrd law that makes
IL misdemeanor TO sell lq1or to per-
, SOS whose won't il is TO abuse l.. The
off ,srs have every opportunity to en-
force this section.
