Runaway--fifty dollars reward.

--Runaway, on the 5th of August, my Negro Woman, named Betty; about 28 years old, five feet four inches high, black, who was hired to Joseph Davis on Broad street. She has a mark on the face, in consequence of a mustard plaster she had on, which place is darker — She has children in Cumberland county, where I bought her of Mr. J. M. Price. She is probably in this city, or has made her way to Mr. Price's. I will give the above reward, if delivered to me here or if lodged in jail in the county or city.

oc 7--1m* Joseph Stern.
