NEWPORT NEWS


RUN OFF-Yesterday morning, early, a slave in the employment of Mr. M Betz, livery stable keeper, on York street, was sent with a pass to convey a couple of gentlemen to the Little Miami Railroad Deport. Upon reaching the depot, the darkey left the vehicle and horses standing in the street, and stored himself away in the cars.  He is doubtless ere this, far on his way northward.
