New BEDFORD. Dec. 26.-There died in this
city q few days ago n man who. born in slavery,
lived to be one OF the most respected members
of the Massachusetts bar.

another son were the property OF q wealthy
planter. His master was n great horse fancier.
Jolnson's WORK was among horses. and he soon
became one of his masters favorite Jockeys,
riding in n number of celebrated races. In his
twenty-'hird year he made his last and most
important race, in which his master won about
500. 900. The planter was SO gratifcd that he
gave johnson $3.50.
With this money Johnson determined to
strike out for tho North. lie made a bargain
with the crew Of tho schooner Tantury, which
was loading with -four for New York, to stow
away him. his mother. and brother in the fore
castle. He told his masters daughter and she
gave him S"5. She believed he would be caught
and made him promise not to tell what she had
done for him. He and his mother got safely
aboard the schooner and concealed themselves,
but his brother. who was IS years old, would
not make the attempt.
When the vessel was off Sandy Hook a gale
struck her and she went down. the only persons
saved being the Captain and Johnson and his
mother. Tho two stowaways stayed below rs
