500 Dollars reward --Ran away from the subscriber about the 1st of February last boy John, about 14 or 15 years old, fight copper color, with short, straight hair; had on when he left a new suit of cotton clothes, dyed snuff color. John was purchased of Dr. Wright of Alabama. I have no doubt be is with our army. The above reward will be paid for his apprehension and delivery to Lee & Bowman, Richmond, Va., or secured in any jail so that I get him. Wm. H. Gwin. jy 14--1m
Georgia (Georgia, United States) (search for this): article 1
The North Carolina election. To every man who really loves his country, the news from this election will be as refreshing as would be the tidings of a great victory in Georgia or on the Appomattox. The old North State has crushed treason like an egg-shell in her mighty hand. Hereafter let no man imagine aught against the staunch fidelity of her adhesion to her sister States, or her zeal in prosecuting the war which we are waging for the salvation of us all. It is astonishing what a noise a small faction can make, with a newspaper or two at its disposal. A little knot of disappointed politicians had half persuaded the rest of the Confederacy that old North Carolina was untrue to the cause. But she has put an end forever to all doubt upon that subject. Her response to the noble army which she has in the field is worthy of that army and of herself. All honor to the glorious old State.

y night and day. They did think Averill was a troublesome, a very wicked, fellow! But Hunter, at last, is sent amongst them; and, by contrast with him, Averill, who had been such a horror to them, becomes an amiable and kind being. They fled to him, as a sort of Guardian Angel, to shield them from the destruction of the Genius of Desolation. Averill, indeed, has some good parts.--He could not look upon the cruelties and diabolism of Hunter unmoved. He pleaded and remonstrated. He joined Crook and Mulligan in begging that Governor Letcher's house be spared. He seemed to have succeeded in saving some of the houses in the Sweet Spring Valley which Hunter had threatened. He no doubt concurred with Mulligan in the opinion that Hunter was a "fiend." The people of the mountains are now rather his admirers than otherwise.
