One hundred dollars reward.

--Ran away from the subscriber, at Ampthill, Cumberland county, my negro boy Clifton. --He is a nutmeg color, about 17 years old, not well grown, but active and smart; he had on no shoes, was dressed with a military cap and pants, with a bear skin coat. When he left he took with him my sorrel horse, 5 feet Linch high, with blazed face and one white hind foot, and paces remarkably well, is 9 or 10 years old, and had on one of Cottrell's best saddles and curb bridle, with one rein broken 18 inches from the bit. It is supposed the boy took the tow-path for Richmond, and is in some of our camps. I will give $100 for boy and horse, or $60 for the boy and $40 for the horse and saddle, delivered to Blair & Chamberlayne, Richmond, or to myself. W. B. Harrison,
