Humboldt watched these events anxiously, and patiently awaited their issues. When at last peace was proclaimed, the happy life he had till then led was embittered by the degradation of his country ; even the possessions of in- dividuals were endangered, and it seems that the castle of Tegel had also been plundered during these years ; the aspect of affairs in the papal dominions grew more dangerous, and Humboldt determined to leave Rome and his family for some time, and repair to Germany on lea...ve of absence. After hav- ing spent the autumn of 1808 in Albano, he left Rome in October, not foreseeing then that he would not return. He only took his son Theodor with him, probably with the intention of placing him in some educational establishment. On his return he visited Goethe, and then repaired to his father-in-law, Herr von Dacheroden, in Erfurt. While there he received a summons to enter into another sphere. In De- cember, 1808, the cabinet sitting in Konigsberg offered him the post of director of the section of worship and of public education in the ministry of the interior, at the same time naming him a privy councilor of state.
