From the Pennsylvanian,
Autobiography ol .1: Relief
Note.
lwaa born in May. of 1841. My la
ther is WtLLtAm F. JOHNSTON. ol Arnie
strong county. I have passed through
many eventlul scenes. I have experierr
ced many troubles. l have submitted to
many inuults. When I came into lhltl
breathing world. I was greeted by the
maledictioos ol the people. As I passed
on in lile, I received more kicks than cop
pere. And now, at this. my last moment
of extsleuce. curses are ringing In my ears.
and thousands are hoping to see me return
to my original—rags.
l have served many purposes. My la
tlter is an old political brutser. He was
driven onto! the Democratic party {or
treachery, and lnr too much of a hanker
ing alter the flesh-pots ol Whiggery. He
moved to Armstrong county early In life.
when: he got rich by speculation. He
thought the Democrat; there were ver
dant. He got them to elect htm tothe
Legislature, and when they did on. he
first turned tail upon them. and then madel
a compact wrth Tit/moans STEVENS.
Having succeeded in getting back to
the Legislature in 1841. he introduced hie
celebrated Relief Bill. which led tothe
birth of myselfand many thousands ofais
tern. A good deal at difficulty took place
before we were born. Many eminent po
litical doctors were consulted, and a good
deal of trouble was taken maxim the panes
of parturition We should all b smothered.
But thanks to the zeal and industry at my
lather, who employed a number at mascu
line Mrs. CAUDLES and Mrs. GANTS. we
were solely fluttered upon the stage at ac
tion.
With all my aislers.l was bum. like
Richard the Mid. Wllh my eye-teeth cut.
Like Minerva from the brain ol Jove, we
leaped full-fledged into being. Like the
men of Cadmus we came lorlh fully armt
ed and equipped, lor the purpoaea for
which we were intended. We each tho’t
ourselves sent out upon a mission to re
lieve the people ol all the loose change
they had to spare.
When I was still fresh and new, I was
paid out at the counter ol the Exchange
Bank, with many ol my relations, to a la
mous Pittaburg manulaclurer. He haml
ed me over to one of his workmen—a
plain andhighly intelligent roan. l anon
lound that l was not popular in this man’s
family. He looked upon me with great
luoplcion. He denounced my lather bit
terly, and declared lrequently to his Wile
that l was created simplv to plunder the
hard-working people. lsoo’n raw thatl
would be very little respected here, and
l was not sorry when my owner’s wile
paid me to a merchant lor anmedry-goods.
{ln a short tithe I found nyaell once more
in the midst of many oblny sisters—corner
of them looked very thinf—olhers irery dir-l
'ty—othera were bruised and torn—while
only a lew preserved their virgin purity.
lAt this time rumors began to prev ail lhatl
we Were not to be trusted, and l recollect
very well when we all of us took a ride to,
Philadelphia, where we were sold to a bro
ker, [or ten cents less than each dollar ol
as called for. [declare I think that. at
thta time. an hundred thousand ofour lam
ily were bought and sold in a single week
by this one man of diamante. and there
were many more in Third street. I was
always gozng out and coming back. On
Saturday, 11-was generally purchased by
the head vi a large establlahmeot to pay,
at the value on my lace. to his workmen
—and these. would run to market and to
the stores uith myselt and Olalcrb. They
always had to pay more than the full price
[0" "9'7 lhlng. because they paid their
debts withétu. Once I recollect being tav
‘ ken to a mechanic’s house. (who had put
out all butrnyaell,)anr|'liev'er will l for
get his bitter denunciations of the whole
paper system. He said he had been a
Whig all his-previous life. but he now
lound that the Democrats were rightin
their opposition to paper moaer. l have
no doubt he became a Locotoco from that
day. He held me up 'very near the can
dle belore the children; and told them how
labor was plundered by such as l ; and
once or twice in his rage he burnt ’me'~se-'
vorely. I was heartily rejoiced to get out
of his hands. and by regular process to
find myself once more back iu the bro
lter's drawer. , Here I was al'Waya ironed
out carefully. and mended Where I had
been injured. Then l would be sold out
to such-ca had hands to pay, or auctions to
attend. ‘Oncc—l 'ahall never"!orget-‘-‘-l

the Mfisonn. He'seized me With a laugh,
and proceeded to tell the company all ü
buut the efl'nrls that had been made to bring
me into being, and the usesl had been
turned to. He then put his " pile” upon
«the of the figures and played with despe
tation [or mme time.
Since 1844 l have seen many trials—
bore many. insults—passed through many
thousands ot hands, and accrrmplishetl mu
ny vile purposes. Look upon my like
neas at'the head of this column. You Will
aee that I am old—that diaeolutiori is at

There is no salvation [or me. There is
no physician, however skilled—no com

I deserve a tuneral pile—that we should

Since this period. the people have broken
out anew. and cornea are ahowercrl upon

hour when we shall be released Irom this
world ot sin and trouble. The only per

the broken. Who have made thousands of
dollara by trading ua ofl upon the needy,
and by selling us to the heartless.
Betore going to our long home, and in
