80 NEGROES FOR SALE. I HAVE JUST ARRIVED IN VICKSBURG, with EIGHTY NEGROES for sale. Amongst them, two extra fine Blacksmiths, 2 fine Engi-neers. These Negroes are for sale. They are young and likely, selected expressly for this market; and, if you will give a call before buying, if I do not trade it will certainly be the fault of the purchaser. I can furnish you with any description of a Negro that you may wish, as low as you can buy in the market. I will be receiving fresh supplies every fifteen or twenty days, until the 15th of July, 1857. JOHN S. MERRILL, dec17-3m* Next door to L. C. Moore & Co.'s.
