Said boy was about twenty-one years of age when he left, and weighed about 140 or 150 pounds. lie is dark complected, round faced, full jawed, slightly bow- leggvd, round shouldered, leans forward when he walks, and is very intelligent. He has a scar on the inside of one thigh, caused bj' a wound received in a fall from a tree. I have reason to believe that he has been in the counties of Johnston, Harnett, Cumber land and Bladen, and in the towns of Averasboro’ and Fayetteville, where he passed for a free man, under the assumed names of Joseph Jacobs, John G. Wil liams and William ('aldwell, and at times followed the occupation of a ditcher. 1 have also been informed that he left Raleigh in a buggy with an Irishman^ I probably under a promise of being taken to a free State I will pay a reward of Jj^lOO for his apprehension and delivery to me, or for his confinement in any jail $J00 if taken out of the State; and also ^100 for proof suf ficient to convict any white person with having har bored him, whether in or out of this State.

JI., by whom it was originally established, will be re-opened on the loth of July, and arranged to prepare boys for advanced classes in the University. For this purpose. Prof. A. 0. Brown, whose reputa tion is well known as a Teacher of the Ancient Classics during the last thirteen years at Chapel Hill, will be associated with the present Principal, and Rev. T. J. Horner will continue to be an assistant Instructor. The School, iis thus organized, is designed to be permanent and of the highest grade. As it is divided into a few classes pursuing a regular course of studies, considerable time will be devoted to examination and lecture upon the subject of every lesson by each in structor in his own department. Important advantages have been secured by the es tablishment of a Literary Society, with its library, and an eflicient system of discipline, in which especial at tention is given to the habits and deportment of the young men, when not engaged in the imnitdiato duties of the School. Its location is very eligible; the climate of Oxford is excellent, and the coni:nodious building lately erected, stands on an eminence in a beautiful grove, beyond the corporate limits of the town and near the residence of the Principal and other private families, who will ac commodate the Students with board. Two terms of twenty weeks each, coinciding with those of the University, compose the scholastic year, and the price of board and tuition is ninety dollars a term.
