s made the penalty of non-payment; and at least the latter imposed on the debtor in the event of bankruptcy no more than the cession of his whole assets. 69. I. XI. Manumission 70. II. III. Continued Distress 71. At least the latter rule occurs in the old Egyptian royal laws (Diodorus, i. 79). On the other hand the Solonian legislation knows no restrictions on interest, but on the contrary expressly allows interest to be fixed of any amount at pleasure. 72. V. VI. Caesar's Agrarian Law 73. V. VI. Caesar's Agrarian Law 74. IV. II. Tribunate of Gracchus, IV. II. The Domain Question Viewed in Itself, IV. IV. The Domain Question under the Restoration 75. IV. XII. Carneades at Rome, V. III. Continued Subsistence of the Sullan Constitution 76. IV. X. The Roman Municipal System 77. Of both laws considerable fragments still exist. 78. V. XI. Diminution of the Proletariate 79. V. VII. Gaul Subdued 80. As according to Caesar's ordinance annually sixteen propraetors and two proconsuls divided the governorships among them, and the latter remained two years in office (p. 344), we might conclude that he intended to bring the number of provinces in all up to twenty. Certainty is, however, the less attainable as to this, seeing that Caesar perhaps designedly instituted fewer offices than candidatures. 81.

V. XI. Foreign Mercenaries 85. V. IX. In the Governorships 86. V. XI. Financial Reforms of Caesar 87. V. I. Organizations of Sertorius 88. V. XI. Robberies and Damage by War 89. V. XI. The Roman Capitalists in the Provinces 90. V. I. Transpadanes, V. VIII. Settlement of the New Monarchial Rule 91. Narbo was called the colony of the Decimani, Baeterrae of the Septimani, Forum Julii of the Octavani, Arelate of the Sextani, Arausio of the Secundani. The ninth legion is wanting, because it had disgraced its number by the mutiny of Placentia (p. 246). That the colonists of these colonies belonged to the legions from which they took their names, is not stated and is not credible; the veterans themselves were, at least the great majority of them, settled in Italy (p. 358). Cicero's complaint, that Caesar "had confiscated whole provinces and districts at a blow" (De
