Five Hundred Dollars reward.

--Ran away from my farm, in Fluvanna county, Virginia on the 21st instant, two Negro men — Charles and Giles. Charles is about twenty-two years old, of a tawny color, and about five feet ten inches high, and has a mole on the side of his neck. Giles is a mulatto, about five feet nine inches high; has a small depression in his jaw, caused by a defective tooth; stammers a little, and has his hair cut short. He has a free woman for a wife who resides in Manchester, Virginia. I will give the above reward of $500 for both, or $250 for either, upon their delivery to Hill, Dickinson & Co., of Richmond, who are my agents.
