One hundred Dollars reward.
--Ranaway from his owners, in this city, about the middle of last April, Francis, a mulatto boy, of eighteen or nineteen years of age. He is about five feet four inches in height, rather stout built; usually wears his hair full, has a lowering brow, and a slight beard just visible over his upper lip; his countenance is sedate, except when spoken to, when he smiles very good humoredly.
He is a house servant and waiting man; but prefers carpentry, cooking, &c., in a military camp, and no doubt has joined some company in the State, or has gone to Virginia as a free man. A lodgment in any jail in the Confederacy, and a letter proving facts, will immediately insure the above reward.--Apply at the "Dispatch" for references.
