THE FALL OF THE ROMAN Esf.
nEnH

Il was in the early psrl Of the fflh
century that the mighty fabric Of tbe Ro.
man Empire, which had long been loa,
'eTing 10 csSfelI!fnaIly and forever lnto
ruin. Their far extendgndsd POsSsssions,
which it had cost them sSes 70 acquiTe,
were, ia the course Of q few IustSums,
snaiehed from then, ,one after snoihag,ond
oVeT.Tun BY baTbarians, who trampl5d M
der foot ell the institutions and impfoVa (.
Ements which Roman grutene1 had intro.
dneed into their most distant colonies.
The Vandals came from the banks Of Sla
Elbe and Vistula, and pessing through
Germany, entered Gaul, plunderin9 and
destroying wherever tbsJ wept. The
GOths csmefrom the banks Of the Dnoi.
sler, The Berysthens, and the Don; and di-
Viding into two branches, the OsthoRoths
spread over PannOnia, whist the Visi~
gOlbs twice raVaged Italy, sacked and
Plundered Rome, and penetrated even
into Gaul and Spain. The Franks snd
AlemanBs came from the Rhine, The
Maine, the Weser and the Elbe, aud Join
ed 10 swell the torrent that inundated the
country Of the Caesars. The Saxons came
from beyond the EIbe, and keeping chief
ly on the sea coast, committed TaaVRea
there Similar,to those which other baFbas
rans were busy with in the INTERIOR
Lastly, the Huns, the 6ercest Of aII,
came from the remote distTictS Of North
ern Asia, TO which the Greeks or Romans
had never penetrated, and having frst
attacked Byzantium and the Eastern Dis
vision Of the Empire, they then pFecipa.
ted themselves on the West, under the
conduct Of the famous Attila. For up-
wards of two hundred years all was coa-
fusion, bleOdshed and darkness. Not
single nation was to be found in Europe,
whose rights or boundaries were asesF.
iained or established. The old order Of
things bad been swept away at once; and
it was not TO be expected that 30 great q
mass of discordant elemsnts could immO-
diately arrange themselves into harmo.
niOus and appropriate disposition. Grad.
ually, however, this began to be the case,
Much internal cOmmOtion still existed,
but out Of the chaotic mass, new and
distinct empires sprung up, like islands
rising in the ocean. The Franks sstab.
shsd themselves in GauI; the AIlemannG
became masters Of Germany; the Huup
sOntented themselves with Russia; the
disputed with Mohometans from.
Africa the dominion Of Spain; the Sag.
ous crossed over into Britain, and formed
lhe political association known By the
name Of the Heptarchy. Whatever differ.
snce there might be in other respects,
here we're two features which gave nll
hess nations general resemblance 10
zach other, and increased the prObabiIi-
y Of mutual cooperation towards the
Ultimate advancement Of ciVilization.-
These Were-the feudal system, and the
christian religion both of which were now,
Universally adopted, and materially tended
o soften the harsher characteristics Of
he time.-CREIeHToN.

Scylla. they fell into Charybdis; foriheyI

they became exposedlto the Eocket.boats!

In another part of the book. we have

placed a large body of the Chinese be-
tween two fires, BY which 600 we're slain
with loss TO the British force Of
only one killed!
f'The Chinese (says Captain Bingham)
could do nothing against the terrific
brOadsides of the ships, the shells and
the tOckets.' In numerous instances
the Chinese, having no notion that quar-.
ter would be extended to them, rushed |
upon the bayOnets oftheir invaders, or
destroyed themselves before theft eyes. |
