WANTED.
F IVE HUNDRED HANDS.—We wish to hire for the en
suing year, five hundred able-bodied NEGRO MEN,
to be employed by us at our Blast Furnaces, in Botetourt
county, and at our Coal Mines, on James river, seventeen
miles above this city.
As our works generally are remote from the enemy’s
lines, and the negroes are well guarded, we think it greatly
for the interest of those having hands to dispose of, to hire
them to us.
The negroes will be supplied with the very best provis
ions, which have already been se ured, and good clothing
provided for them at all seasons of the year.
Those of whom we have hands hired for the present year
will please inform us whether we shall retain these hands
at the furnaces until they are re-hired; and if not. to what
point they shall be returned, as some of the owners may
have changed their places of residence.
Payment for the hire of these hands will be made either
at Farmville, Lynchburg, Fincastle, or this city, annually
or quarterly, at the option of the owner.
Applications can be made to F. T. Glasgow, Fincastle ,•
Wm. T. Patton, at Clover Dale Furnace ; James L. Patton,
at Grace Furnace; Wm. Jordan, Alum Springs; John H.
Jamieson, Lynchburg; Benjamin Holliday, Frederick’s
