Death of an aged patriot.

--The venerable John Johnson, of Ohio, was found dead in his bed in Washington city, Monday morning.--He was one of the companions of the immortal Daniel Boone, and when the remains of that celebrated pioneer were a few years ago removed and consigned to a final resting-place, the Legislature of Kentucky sent for Mr. Johnson to act as one of the pall- bearers and follow him to his last grave. Mr. Johnson was 86 years of age, and had been a regular subscriber to the National Intelligencer for sixty years.
