200 dollars reward.

--Ran away, on Sunday night, the 17th inst, my negro man James; he is about 22 years old, quite likely, with smooth skin, black complexion, full suit of hair, 5 feet 7 or 8 inches high, weighs about 150 pounds, and with his index finger on his right hand stiff. In attempting to make his escape he will doubtless pass through Richmond, as his mother lives there with Mr. Wm R Pugh, on Grace street, between 7th and 8th. The above reward will be paid on his apprehension and confinement in jail so that I get him.
