. TO THE EDIMR OF THE STAR. ON THE PROPHECIES.—No. XXVL FOURTII TRUMPET. g. The fourth Angel sounded, and the third tart of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third tart of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third tart of it, and the night likewise." (Rev. viii: 12.) I . need scarcely repeat that in hyrogli'phical lan guage, which is often the language of prophecy, the sun, moon, and stars are applied to systems of rule among men, whether political or religious—in the formtr meaning kings, their people, and rulers, in the latter CHRIST, the Sun of Righteousness, his follow ers, and the rulers in his church. But here we are prevented from applying the prophecy to the church of CHRIST, by the third tart of the sun, to which it al ludes, being eclipsed ; for her sun shall never set (Isai. lx. 20). We arc, therefore, under the necessity of looking for its completion in that body politic, called " the third tart," throughout the book of Re vAi:i in, namely, the Roman Empire. By the sounding of the second trumpet we were informed of circumstances which in their nature could lead to no other consequences than those that are printed out by this fourth trumpet ; for " A ling dom divided against itself cannot stand." (Mat. xii. 25.) The Roman Empire, rent with internal dissensions, could not hope to escape the common lot of nations in similar circumstances, unless this breach could be healed. This trumpet informs us, it was not to be healed. " The third tart of the sun was Rai-re:it, and the third tart of the moon, and the third part of the stars —The burning mountain that war thrown into th e sea— riven for a prey to invading barbarians, was to be divided, and to receive new masters. It had but one before, but that one [the sun] and all his subor dinate rulers [the stars] were to be eclipsed by a new authority ; and the glory of the Roman people, so far as that was connected with the power of the for mer master, was to be annihilated : so that the splerdour of the imperial head, called here the third tart tf the day, (because the sun rules the day) ceased to shine; and, as the necessary consequence, the a , lendour of those inferior magistrates, who only shine by a borrowed or reflected light, compared here to the light of the night, also ceased to diffuse their rays throughout the same third part in which the.im perial power was eclipsed. The rise of the Roriian power was predicted in the sealed book [Daniel] under different figures, but particularly by that of a ferocious beast (chap. vii.) with ten horns; that is ten king: or kingdoms, according to the Angel's explanation of the term horns. Here, however, there was something 'sealed up—impossible to be understood, without an authentic interpreta tion ; for, in chap. vii. v. 23. Daniel was told that this beast was " the fourth kingdom on earth"—one kingdom--and yet he is informed, v. 24, that the ten horns are ten kingdoms—not ten kings that might follow each other in succession in the kingdom ; for they were to reign together, otherwise three of than could not be plucked up by the other horn that was to rise after theni. Those events which were to realize and give consistency to this, otherwise unintellegible, part of the sealed book, are the subject of the second and 1 mirth trumpet, and of other parts of the Apo calypse ; and it will be seen, in our progress, that this vast empire, even after the fall of its Imperial head, still continued to be one when parcelled out into t.•n kingdoms. In treating of the second trumpet I endeavoured to gve a concise sketch of events which in their pro gress gradually wrested the command of the arm►es, and all places of trust and emolument, from the na tive Romans, and vested them in the hands of aliens. This, however, was but a part of the change which the empire was to experience. By the events which followed, and of which I shall now endeavour to give a brief outline, the Imperial power was at last annihilated, and the sovereignty divided, along with the terriories of the. Roman empire, among the va rious invadc..rs. Arcadius, the son of Thedosius, was only seven, teen years of age when he succeeded to the Empire of the . East : 11 ,, norius, his brother, only ten when he began to reign in the West (an. 395). Stilico was Minister to the latter: Rufians to the former.— Rufinus was a native of Gascony—Stilico a Vandal - Under these Ministers every thing was set tip to sale, and offices were so prodigiously increased, that the prince's agents, whom JULIAN had reduced to seven- teen, were now ten thousand ! ! RUFINUS intended that his own daughter should be married to ARCA DIUS, but the loiter having married EUDOXIA, by the persuasion of the eunuch EUTROPIUs, the Minister now resolved to share the empire with his master.— To prevent any impediment from STILICO, who ruled in the West, under the name of HONORIUS, RUFINUS secretly invited the barbarians to invade theempire. i'he 1 fi!us crossed the Don, came down from Cau rasus,Ltid waste Armenia, Cappadocia, Cicilia, and ria, making even Antioch tremble; while the Cloths, under Alaric, passed the'Danube and poured into the prcwinces lying between the Adriatic and Con , tinCriople. RirFiNus, as might be expected, mu' c:ird in ncgeciating a peace, and, persuading tic barb riai:s to withdraw from Constantinople, es. tablkhcd hi own credit with ARCADIUS as a man of No. on:kr - ft:l alr.ii irs,'and expected speedily to obtain the honour for which he punted. But STILICO having, in the mean time, opposed the barbarians in the iN es with such vigour as to make them sue for peace, immediately marched against A LARIC, and, with a large army, partly compocd of troops belong ing to Ar.cArnt's, came up with him on the plains of Thess,lly. When on the point of engaging, ARCA- Pil7l:'s troops were ordered to withd raw f rom t h e rest, and retails to Constantinople—.an order which Rurtsus Lad d;ctatcd, to emit:liras his rival. &num ( who was now obliged to retreat) sent these troops back, mder command of a Gothic officer, properly tutored. ARCM:bit:5, accompanied by RUFINUS, whom he was 1,6 nominate as leis colleague on that very day, went out of Constantinople to receive the ho rnage these troops on their return ; when, on a signal from the Commander, they set upon RUFINUS And killed him. EUTROPIUs the eunuch succeeded him as Minister, and was equally a scourge to the state and the people.

In the mean time, the empire experienced an unexpected invasion of the Goths, about 200,000 of whom, under RADAGAISAS, poured in upon Italy, where they were hailed as deli verers by those of the Romans who were still attached to Paganism. After much slaughter on both sides, they were at last defeated (an. 405) by STILico, who was aided in this contest by Huns and Goths. Italy was scarcely freed from this enemy, when a dreadful irruption of Barbarians, Alans, Vandals, and Suevi, overwhelmed the Roman power in Gaul.— The Vandals, who were of Gothic origin, by mixing with the ancient inhabitants, had, in some measure, become Germans, and had given their name to dif ferent nations—as, the Burgundians, Rugii, Heruli, Lombards, Angli (English), Thuringians. Those who were now in motion inhabited the country of Pannonia, the province of the empire in which STILICO was born. The Suevi, originally a nation of wan derers, had occupied the countries between the Elbe, the Vistula, the Danube, and the Baltic ; but being afterwards divided into different hordes, such of them as retained the name of Suevi in the time of AuotTrus, dwelt East of the Rhine, but were com pelled to retire into Bohemia, of part of which they were deprived by the Vandals. The Alans, from the time they had been driven from the Don, wan dered along the Danube. They had been of great service in the armies of THEODOSIUS and STILICO, but perceiving that those whom they served for hire were unable to defend themselves, they resolved to parti cipate in the spoils of the empire. These nations, joined by a number of Huns, Sar matians, and other barbarians, in their march, cros sed the Rhine near Mentz, and spread like a torrent to the Pyrenees. They were followed by a multi tude of Burgundians, who settled in Helvetia, and afterwards in the country of the Sequani an! Edui— also by an immense number of Alemaits, settled on the banks of the Rhine, from Basle to Mentz. The army in Britain, terrified by the proximity of such a deluge of enemies, and despairing of rein forcements, proclaimed a common soldier of the name of CONSTANTIITS Emperor. He was afterwards acknowledged in Gaul; his son CONSTAXS made himself master of Spain, and HoNoßius was compel led to receive him as colleague. At the same time, (an. 408) ALARIC, who in consequence of some new 1 treaty with STILICO had been for three years expect ing to be joined by him for the conquest of Illyria, tired with waiting, marched to Italy with his army, and demanded payment for the ex/tenet.: he had incurred. After some debate in the Senate, STILICO, who main tained that his claim was just, promised that 4.000 pounds weight of gold should be given to him, and he retired with his troops to Noricum (in Bavaria and Austria). This transaction cost STILICO his life, who, with all his ambition, was an able Gene ral. OLYMPICS, a courtier who owed kir elevation to STILICO, persuaded the Emperor that the. Minister aimed at the throne, and that he was the author of the invasion of the empire by the barbarians; and, gaining over the troops then at Pavia, he first caused all STILICO'S relations to be massacred in a mutiny, and then procuring an order for that purpose from the Emperor, orderecrthe-Minister himself to be seized at Ravenna, with his son, and put to death. OLYMPIus, enriched with the spoils of STILICO, go verned with the same unbounded power as his pre decessor, but with less judgment. He is praised by SYMMACHUS, At:at:sr-ix, and other ecclesiastical wri-, 1 ters ; but the laws he passed, (for the laws of Ho- NORIUS were those of the Minister) in favour of churchmen, account for their eulogiums.—Appeals I , to the bishops in all civil causes were now authorized; their decision was final, and the civil magistrates were obliged to execute the senttitce 1 Pagans and heretics were excluded from all offices (when JULIAN exclud ed dissenters, the clergy talked of the hardship and wickedness of depriving men of their civil rights, but now that the same conduct had a different direction, it b e came highly meritorious), the Catholics were put in possession of all the churches ; all pagan so lemnities were abolished ; the execution of these or ders was committed to the bishops ; and the public of- - via , .

LEAKE's Genuine PILLS, so justly famous for their superior efficacy in curing every degree' and symp,m of the Venereal Disease, the Scurvy, &c. without confinement or restraint of diet, is an easy, expeditious, safe, and secret moa ner. One small tasteless Pill is a dose, its operation impercep tible, and requiring no particular attention. In 15 days they generally cure those cruel Disorders ; and where they fail in that time of perfectly restoring health, the tient has the happy assurance that he or she is at the evt of be::; so restored, let the degree of malignancy be ever so great. It is an excellency peculi it to theso fills, to make directly :a the complaining part, and cater into contest with the offenet. ,; matter, which they spe:dily d:•slodge and expel.
