Twenty-five Dollars reward.

--Will be paid for the arrest and confinement in jail, so that I can get her, of my negro woman Celia. She left me in Manchester, Monday, March 16, 1863, about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and is believed to be to or near Manchester, or the city of Richmond. Cella is about 30 years old, but looks older; is a little under the medium height; very stoutly made; of a ginger-bread color; has thick but remarkably narrow eyebrows; looks somewhat grum, and talks rapidly. She had on when she left a home-made linsey dress; a gay-colored, double blanket shawl, and a quilted hood. She carried a bundle of clothes with her. Address Jos Wells, Manchester, Va, or the subscriber.

Chas B Teres, mh 12--4t*
