1.500 Dollars Reward.

--I will give $500 for the recovery of my servant girl Ellen, and $1000 for the recovery of one Richmond cross one set diamond ear rings, and two large fine cluster diamond rings, carried away by the said girl.

Ellen ran away from me at the Ballard House, on Wednesday evening, the 13th of January, carrying with her the above diamond jewelry.

Description--Ellen is very white, and may readily pass herself as a free white woman. She is about 26 years of age, slender and delicately formed, narrow face, light brown straight hair, eyes nearly blue, rather high forehead; weighs about 115 or 120 pounds.

She had on when she left, two black rings and a gold ring. She dresses well and carries with her good and fine clothes. She is a superior seamstress.

Any information may be given to Hon J. D. C Atkins during my temporary absence from this city. ja 21--6t
