in London at the very moment when the fort at Biloxi was in progress; and, at once, an exploring expedition, 1699. under the auspices of Coxe, a proprietor of New Jersey, sought also for the mouths of the Mississippi. When Bienville, who passed the summer in exploring the forks below the site of New Orleans, descended the riverland, were to be reduced under British sovereignty. The colonies kindled at the prospect: to defray the expenses of preparation, Connecticut, and New York, and New Jersey, then first issued bills of credit; stores were collected; Chap.

But no English fleet arrived; and thenty-fifth to the thirtieth day of July, the fleet lay at Boston, taking in supplies and the colonial forces.

That a similar instruction was given generally, is evident from the apology of Spotswood for the small importations of slaves into Virginia. In that commonwealth, the planters beheld with dismay the increase of negroes. A tax checks their importation; and, in 1726, 1726. May 12.
