Runawy --$10 reward

--From the subscriber, a Negro Boy named Charles. Said Negro is about 20 years old; of a dark ginger-bread color; about 5 feet 6 or 8 inches high; and is inclined to slammer a little in talking. Said Negro was hired by Messrs. Cosby & Anderson. Tobacconists, last year, and was seen by them day before Christmas. I believe this Negro is lurking about the city or vicinity, and I will pay the above reward for his apprehension and delivery into any of the city jails, so that I can get him. Joseph M. Vaiden, or

ja 13--6t * Wm. Thos. Hancock.
