In the same year Alaric again besieged Rome, after fruitless negotiations with Honorius, and his attempt once more proving successful, he created Attilus, prefect of the city, emperor. But the imprudent measures of his puppet sovereign exasperated Alaric. Attilus was formally deposed in 410, and the infuriated Goth besieged and sacked Rome, and ravaged Italy.
Covered with the ruins of an ancient Roman city, and swarming with serpents, it was colonized again, in A.D. 410, by a young man of rank named Honoratus, who gathered round him a crowd of disciples, converted the desert isle into a garden of flowers and herbs, and made the sea-girt sanctuary of Lerins one of the most important spots of the then world.
A. The judgment we have to undergo immediately after death is called the Particular Judgment. "Particular," because one particular person is judged. 410 Q. What is the judgment called which all men have to undergo on the last day? A. The judgment which all men have to undergo on the last day is called the General Judgment.
I here found, at a point 140 miles from the Atlantic, and seventy miles from the nearest creek of the Pacific, at the height of 410 feet, a very old and worn shell of Patella deaurita. The plain at the head of the valley is tolerably level, but water-worn, and with many sand-dunes on it like those on a sea-coast.
The amount of the leading goods exported in 1855 was: Bales of wool, 6,410; almonds, 200 serons; grain, 642,930 fanegas. No doubt the commerce of this port would be increased under better fiscal laws than those now established. But the primary and immediate thing to be looked after is the wilful casting into the anchorage-ground of stone-ballast by foreigners.

Even Requesens was as much in doubt as to the King's secret purposes as Margaret of Parma had ever been in former times. Prinst., Archives, etc., v 259- 262; Bor, viii. 606, 615; Meteren, v. 100; Hoofd, g. 410. Count John of Nassau was distrustful and disdainful from the beginning.
Altercations and new marches ensued; and at last, for the third time, Alaric appeared before Rome. At midnight on the 24th of April, A.D. 410, eleven hundred and sixty-three years from the foundation of the city, the Salarian gate was opened to him by the treachery of slaves; there was no god to defend her in her dire extremity, and Rome was sacked by the Goths.
It was these same Goths who became the immediate cause of Rome's downfall. Theodosius had kept them in restraint; his feeble sons scarce even attempted it. The intruders found a famous leader in Alaric, and, after plundering most of the Grecian peninsula, they ravaged Italy, ending in 410 with the sack of Rome itself. This seems to us, perhaps, a greater event than it did to its own generation.
