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.
