100 DOLLS. REWARD
Ran away from Deniopolis, in the county of Marengo, and state of
Alabama, on or about the first of the present month, a NEGRO MAN named
JOE, belonging to the subscriber, who it is supposedly was persuaded off
by a white man named Ar? Donally, and Irishman by birth ---- Joe and ?
having been subsequently seen together making their way through the
Choctaw Nation.
Donally is about thirty years of age, five feet eight or nine inches
high, has dark eyes, light hair and fair complexion, by occupation a
sawyer.
Joe ( who it is probable may call himself Joel) is a very large likely
fellow, about twenty-eight or thirty years of age, six feet one or two
inches high, dark complexion; he is very artful and intelligent, and is
a most excellent blacksmith; his back shows marks of severe whipping,
and his head several scars made with a gun barrel last winter. He has a
variety of cloathing, and a silver watch with several large brass seals.
It is thought they will try to make their way to the province of Texas.
They passed a Mr. Lafloors in the Choctaw Nation on their way, as they
stated, to Natchez, and New Orleans. Joe stated that his name was
Andrew, that he was from Philadelphia, and that he, was a tanner by
trade. He has, I am informed, procured free papers. They stole from
Demopolis a strawberry roan horse of common size.
I will give the above reward to any person who will secure the said
Donally and Joe, so that I can get hold of them, or fifty dollars for
Joe.

DIED -- At Arkansas, on the 25th September Major George McGlassin,
late of the U.S. Army. He had resigned his military situation and the
government, confiding in his integrity and enterprise, assigning to him
the duties of settling and terminating the transactions appertaining to
the Factor department of this Territory. The government could not have
made a better selection; shrewd, perceiving, and inflexible, he would
have discharged the duties of his office, no deceit, with satisfaction
to his country.
Maj. McGlassin is not among those who become a prey to the grave without
fame and distinction. For his rank in the army, perhaps as much glory
will attend his tomb, to save his memory from oblivion, as that of any
other officer of his grade in the recent war. At all times, and upon all
services, Maj. McGlassin had been faithful and ardent - but when the
British assailed Pittsburgh, this officer displayed an ardor and
chivalry that would have done honor to a Cid or a Bayard ---- his was
the dangerous but illustrious post of effulgent honor. This fearful
honor was discharged by the departed hero with undismayed spirit --- and
the commanding general paid to his courage those warm encom? Which his
merit so forcibly elicited.

Steam-boat accident --- We are informed by a gentleman from
Arkansas, that about two or three weeks since, the steam-boat Hecla, in
endeavoring to ascend against a strong current in the Mississippi, at
Cypress Bend, in this Territory, burst her boiler, which caused the
immediate death of two persons, and scalded nine others in a shocking
manner. Our informant received this information at Arkansas, from two of
the crew of the above boat, one of whom saved his life by jumping
overboard at the moment the accident occurred but not without receiving
some injury.
We also learn, from the same source, that the Captain, (Henry Elliott,
of St. Genevieve, Mo.) Mate, and Clerk of the Hecla, died on board of
the yellow fever, a few days previous to the above accident; and that
several of the passengers and crew were afflicted with the same disease.
The Hecla was only a few days from New Orleans, (bound for St. Louis)
which city, we regret to learn, is again visited with the yellow fever
and that upwards of 40 new cases were reported the day the above boat
left there.

Unfortunate encounter --- We are informed that a young man by the
name of Lewis Dawson (who was one of the party composing Col. Glen's
late hunting and trapping expedition to the Rocky Mountains) was
unfortunately killed last winter by a white bear. He was pursuing the
bear thro' a thicket when the furious animal suddenly sprang on him from
its hiding place, and killed him before it could be despatched by his
companions, who came instantly to his relief. Mr. Dawson resided for a
considerable time at Arkansas, and was a steady, industrious, and honest
young man.
