Markets the Natural Abode of Strong Language Says This Writer. Loidon Globe. Tmie mipolished phraseology, native th-ough not peculiar to this quarter )f London, has given rise to the pro verbial use of the nam'c Billingsgate. 'One may term this the Esculine ("ate of London,'' says old Fuller. 'Here one may hear linguas jurga trices.'' The seventeenth century re ferences to the "rhetoric" or ob cene langnygc of the market are rrequent, and hence foul language it elf is Called ''billiigsgate.'' In ''Vanity Fair,'' too, Thackeray tells As how Mr. Osborne cursed Billings xate with an emphasis worthy of the place. It is .urious how markets are tle natural abode (if' strong language. vAns the French eq1valent for ''You Ire no better than a Billionggate fish tag'' is 'Your compliments are like those of the Place Maubert,'' thr Place Maubert being noted for it4 market. In tiv -ood ohl days the Bililn-s aite prt11ers seem to have tlioroughily on.oyed tliem.selves, for one Bagford writin. in 1715 says: ''This being to my mind another ancient custom that hati been omit.ted of late years. It seems that in former times the por ters that plied at Billingsgate use( civilly to entreiat and desire everY man.11 in1t passed that way to salute a post that stood there in a vacant place. If lie refused to do this t.hey forti with laid hiold of him and by main force hiumped him against the post, but if lie (plietly submitted to kis. lie Some. and paid down sixpene they gave him a name, andi chose some one of the ganig for his godifathecr. believe thiis was done in memory of some old image that formerly stood there. perhaps of Beluus, or Belin.' The original porters of Billings gate belonured to one of the oldest labor gnilds in thle country, the Fel lowshiip of P'orters, and at one timne the carrying work borh at Billings gate and from the wvharves to th. warehouses of the city within a cer tain radius was en'tirely performed by them.

"The two ghosts seemed on excel.. snt terms. Howe insisted that Wash," ngton was taking on weight--foked' Im about it--finally said: " 'George, I'll run you a mile for shilling.'
