One hundred and Fifty dollars reward.

--For the apprehension and delivery to me in this city, or at some place where I can get them of the following slaves:

George, property of P Sutton, of King William county. He is low, very stout, of light brown complexion, and has rather a sullen countenance. When last seen he was passing up Broad street, with a travelling sack.

Emma, a woman about twenty eight years old, above medium size, light mulatto, quite stout in person with long hair and rather small features.

Thornton, about thirty years old rather small and delicate in person, thin features, very pleasing in his address, black, and has short hair. He is the property of Dr. R. H Stuart, of King George county.

Emma is the property of Mrs. A. E. Grymas of the same county. Left their homes on Monday last, and it is supposed will endeavor to reach the enemy in their county. The above reward will be paid for their delivery to me, or Fifty dollars for any one of them.
