Runaway

--Left our store, on the 25th of August, a negro man named John, the property of Dr. A Leyburn, of Lexington, Va. John is about 6 feet high, of a bright, gingerbread color, spare built, and very likely. He speaks in a low tone, and is very polite and plausible in manner. He may be lurking in or near Sidney, as he had a room above the Old Fair Grounds, on Main street, or he may have followed some one in the army as it passed through to Tennessee. We will give $50 for his arrest in or near the city, or $100 if he be lodged in any jail in or out of the State, where we can get him.

Hill & Norfleet. [se 30--8t]
