Ten Dollars Reward. RANAWAY from the subscriber, on the night of the 25th instant, a Negro Man named MOSES, thirty years old, five feet six or seven inches high, black complected; a blacksmith by trade; his right eye lid hangs so as to give it the appearance of being half shut; one of this legs is shorter than the other, (which not particularly recollected;) the outer edge of his ears have been cut off down to the lobes. The above reward will be given for the delivery of said negro to the subscriber, and all reasonable expences paid, or if lodges in jail so that the subscriber can get him. Samuel G. Cloud. Franklin, July 29. 31——
