Three hundred dollars reward.

--Ran away from the subscriber, about six or seven weeks ago, my negro, Ben. Said boy was purchased at the auction house of Messrs. Lee & Bowman, Franklin street, Richmond, and was sold by Dr. Ming, of Petersburg. He said he was hired to Mrs. Magill, at the Theatre, previous to his sale. His age is nineteen or twenty; well built; with small head; five feet eight or nine inches in height. He is no doubt lurking about Richmond or Petersburg. I will give the above reward for his delivery to Messrs. Lee & Bowman, Franklin street.
