This term is sometimes fixed, piration of as, when an alliance is made for a certain number of years ; jJJ sometimes it is uncertain, as in personal alliances, whose du- ii m i te d ration depends on the lives of the contracting powers. The time, term is likewise uncertain, when two or more sovereigns form an alliance with a view to some particular object; as, for instance, that of expelling a horde of barbarous invaders ^ from a neighbouring country, of reinstating a sovereign on his throne, &...c. The duration of such an alliance depends on the completion jof the enterprise for which it was formed. Thus, in the last-mentioned instance, when the sovereign is restored, and so firmly seated on his throne as to be able to retain the undisturbed possession of it, the alliance, which was formed with a sole view to his restoration, is now at an end. But, on the other hand, if the enterprise prove unsuc- cessful, the moment his allies are convinced of the impossi- bility of carrying it into effect, the alliance is likewise at an end ; for it is time to renounce an undertaking when it is acknowledged to be impracticable.
