Ten Dollars Reward.
RANAWAY from the subscriber, on Sunday the 14th instant, a Negro man named DICK about twenty one years of age, very black and somewhat pitted with the small pox in his face, about five feet seven or eight inches high and has a down look. Had on when he went away, a pair of coarse homespun copperas striped trousers, coarse shirt, swansdown vest, and a new pair of coarse shoes-- took along with him a pair of nankeen pantaloons, fine shirt and a dark mixed broadcloth coat; he was born in Morris county at Dr. Blatchley's and has lived a long time with David Frazer, Esq. at Lebanon. Whoever will take up the said negro, and secure him in any gaol so that the subscriber may get him, shall receive the above reward and all reasonable charges paid.
