357–359Gaul [administration]The Roman emperor Constantius appoints Julian, the governor of Gaul, supreme commander over the troops in Gaul. The following year Julian wins an important victory at Strasbourg, and then in a series of brilliant campaigns he drives the barbarians out of Gaul, regaining first the Upper Rhine and then the Lower Rhine for Rome. He goes on to free the Roman hostages taken by the barbarians, and refortifies the frontier. He also builds a fleet to secure the corn supply from Britain for the garrisons of the Rhine and passes several measures which help to restore Gaul's prosperity.

Seedlings, also, are destroyed in vast numbers by various enemies; for instance, on a piece of ground three feet long and two wide, dug and cleared, and where there could be no choking from other plants, I marked all the seedlings of our native weeds as they came up, and out of the 357 no less than 295 were destroyed, chiefly by slugs and insects.
The Origin of Species by Darwin, Charles View in context
