Two hundred dollars reward.

--Ran away from the subscriber, in Amelia county, Va, my negro boy, named Jor; light complexion; about 16 years of age; had on when he went away a gray suit, round jacket, and military cap. Said boy has a gunshot wound on one of his legs; no other marks recollected. I will pay the above reward for his apprehension, or secured in jail so that I can get him. He has free papers in his possession and may pass himself off as a free boy.

Said boy has been engaged in waiting upon the soldiers in some of the camps near the city, and may be now making his way thither.
