WAS committed to my cllsto-

 H ,dy, on the Sth inst. by Samuel R19 Deloach, a NEGRO MAN, who b3W says his name IS ALFRED- ss-.&.- Said negro is about thlrty-two

 years of age, five feet seven and hree-quarterinches high, yellow complex ion, both ears cropped, the first joint off of the fore-finger of the left hand.

 At the time the said negro was appre- hended, and when first committed to my custody, he stated that he belonged to a Mir. William Owen, who resided on the Washita river, in the state of Louisiana, and that he had absconded about a year ago. Since his confinement in jail, he ac- knowledges to have lied, and now confesses to belong to MT. William Liverit, or Leveret, living in St. Francisvilie, state of Mississippi.

 The owner of said negro is requested to come forward, prove property, pay charges, and take him away, otherwise he will he disposed of as the law prescribes.
