Fifty dollars reward.

--Ran away from my farm in Chesterfield county, four miles from the city of Richmond, on Friday, the 9th inst, (October,) my man Cornelius, aged 24 or 25 years, 5 feet 1 or 2 inches high, dark gingerbread color; has one tooth out in front below, and lisps a little. Said negro was raised by Edmund Ruffin, a little below Richmond, of whom I purchased him; don't recollect what kind of clothes he had on when he left. Any one finding him will please deliver him to me at my store on Cary, between 13th and Virginia sts.
