However, the fox terrier was evident

one occasion came across n bank. or

down the bank and enticed his heavy
companion to follow. with the result
that the latter could not get back. while
the former. by reason Of his greater ac-
tivity. was easily able to do.
Now the terrier saw his opportunity.

Since then the fox terrier has repeat

New Yerlk.. slaxe.hip.

When New York city owned q slave
ship Is told in an article In Pearson's
Magazine. The greatest impetus was
given to the slave trade by the act Of
parliament Of 1854. which legalized
slavery in the North American colo
nies. This docs not mean that slavery
was unknown In what Ia now the
United States before that time. he
cause as early as 1920 a Dutch man-of-
war landed aud sold 70 African nc
groes Mt jamestown. va.
In 1926 the West India company I'M
ported slaves from the West Indies to
New York city. then New Amsterdam.
The city itself owned shares In n slave
ship. advanced money for its-fitting
out and shared In the profits OF its
voyages. This recognition and cncour-
agement may account for the astOund-
ing fact that In 17JO slaves formed
onc-sixth Of the entire population Of
New York. The general prevalence Of
slavery is shown by the fact that Mt
this time there were G7 slaves in New
York's small suburb Of Brooklyn. and
that In London itself there were resi-
dent 10000 slaves.
Slaves were at that time publicly
dealt In on the London exchange. No
a recognized commerce. and that In
