Three hundred dollars reward.

--Ranaway from the Old Dominion Iron Worse, three negro men, named Henry, Jim Swindle, and Jim.

Henry is 5 feet 10 inches high; dark gingerbread color; has a bushy head, and is about 30 years old; cheek bones rather prominent; worst when he left wooden sole shoes.

Jim Swindle is very black; 5 feet 6 inches high; strongly built; has a large head, and stammers when spoken to.

Jim is 5 feet 7 inches high; brown complexion; well made, and is quite likely.

These negroes are supposed to be making their way to Mrs. Triplett's farm, near Charlotte C. H. I will pay $100 each for their delivery at the office of the Old Dominion Iron and Nail Works Company, in this city.
