TEN DOLLARS REWARD.
RAN-AWAY from the subscriber on Monday the 19th day of July last, a negro man named SAMBO. He is about 28 years of age, 5 feet 4 or 5 inches high, short neck, stout made, has a scar over one of his eyes, much addicted to drink, rather of a yellowish complexion; had on when he went away, a short blue sailor jacket, a striped swansdown waistcoat, a pair of tow trousers, patched on the knees, a wool hat about worn. Whoever takes up said Negro, and delivers him to his master, or secures him in any goal so that he may get him again, shall be entitled to the above reward, and all reasonable charges, by
JOHN MANNING.
