* PARDONINt. SUSPENDED.All Pardoning of Bebols Suspended The Tro-

sident has put his Foot Down.[From the Washington Republican j !

We arc glad to be aide to state thaiPresident Joliiisonyesterdayannounced IMbpurpose to qnite ,-t crowdof Reliel Iapplicants for pardon, that he shouldgrunt no more pardons for Ihe present. 'and directed lii.s Secretary, Colon,\u25a0! IBrownings lo notify the Attorney-Gen- 'eral of the United Slates toreconimetid ]If) him no more persona for pardon nn- jtier the Ainiifsty I'i'oclaiiiatioii until he 'so ordered. 'Quite v scene oceiirred in the Presi-dent's room yesterday. Borne fifty per- 'sons vAere ]iresenl, most of them seeking 'pardons. A Mr.Keltt, of South ('am 'iinu, (notLawrence 11., he having been lkilled by a loyal bullet id Kort Wagner). 'approached tne President and Informed 'him thatlie desired apardon. "Whal 'have yon tloneV" said Mr. Johnson. "I 'opposedSecession until my Staledecided Ito goout of the Union, and then I de- 'termined to go with it; /never joined 'Hit aniiy; I did nothing to bring on the Irebellion," was the reply. "1 see." re- «joinedtho President, "you are like all 'the rest?you did nothing. .Now," headded, "my experienceis that the men *who didn't join (lie Rebel army, butwho aequles 1 in rebelhon, were themost mischievous ami dangerous menwe had. I cannot pardon you, sir,"Keitt madeBi'veral oilierelliiils. A mono;other things he reminded the President 'that he had comeall the way from SoiilhCarolina; had been in Washington sometime; that hotel living I here was veryhigh, and that, altogether, his dally ex- 'penses were extravagantly large, ami [[bat be would like toget away as soon 'as he could go. The President res|ioii(l- ietl thai the hardships of which he eoni- Iplained were the direct results of the re- jhellion; that he ilitl not briny; on, norcontribute to bring on, the rebellion:that lie was not responsible for, andcould not extricate Mr. Keltt from ihedifficulties he complained of, nor hastenhis paidon on account of them. ThePresident was liriu. His answer Was afinality. Exit Keltt,

Mr. Keltt retired, evidently satisfiedthat Mr. Johnson was President, andthat treason was a slain not removed byIhe mereasking for a signature.

A Mr. Birch, memberof the late Rebellegislature of Virginia, next approach-ed thePresident and applied for a par-don. Similarquestions werepnl to himby the President as were asked Mr.Keitt. From the answers it appearsthat Birch "did nothing," onlg as amemberof the Virginia Legislature, Inobedience to Instructions, he voted thatVirginia should secede from the Unionof the United States. That Is all bedid; that was "nothing." The Presl-dentrefused topardon him. Kxil Birch.

Next came a rebel clergyman, whoasked the President to grant him a par-don. "Whatgreat sin have you com-mittedthat you come here iii clericalrobes, and craveExecutive pardonf"

"1 was a rebel," was the answer,!14and desireyour Excellency to pardonme that I may be restored lo citizenship,and be able to support and live underthe Governmentof the I'niied States."

" You rebelpreachers,'' responded thePresident, " have donethe Governmenta great deal of barm; you have pro-claimed devilish doctrines and misledthe people. V'ou forgot that it was yourduty to 'yield obedience to Ihe powersthat be.' You must rest awhile uponthe 'stool of repentance.' I decline tograntyou a pardon at present." Exitrebel clergyman.

The President then remarked, ad-dressing the entire crowd in the room,that itwas n little singular (hal most ofthenoii-coiiibataiitswho bad eotneherefrom ihe Smith tot pardon assert thatthey did nothing, were opposed to therebellion at the beginning, only ac-quiesced, and thought the Rebol Gov-ernmentoughtlo have interfered earlierand Stopped bloodshed; yet not one of :them took advantage of (he AmnestyProclamation offered by Mr, Lincoln, 'which would have shown sincerity ontheirpart, and contributed so nuieii to-wardssaving the enormous expenditureof life and treasure / wilt grant no 'motepardonsfor the. prencnt was Liteemphatic conclusion or the President, jand turning to Colonel Drowning he ;directed him to issue the order to Ihe :Attorney General referred toabove,

This was a glorious day's work for thecountry, and the people will not forgetto thankAndrew Johnson lor it.

A Washington despatch to the NewYork Heraid says ;The President's door was thrownopen

at the usual hour, and theroom was soontilledwith a motley crowdof both sexes, jAs usual, two-thirdsof thosepresentde- 'sired pardons for themselves or friends, 'but thebearing of thePresident towards 'such applicants has been noticeablychanged of lute. His tenseofJustice re- iviills at the bare idea of bribery sud fior- :ruption Ming Instrumental in obtaining tthe pardon of any one. The Heraldri <exposure of an instance last week iv /which live hundred dollars, paid to Hon. /Thomas Corwln, secured what the ap- ?jdicant seemedotherwise unable to Ob- <tain,appears to have first called his al- Ilenlion to the subject and aroused his Jsuspicions. He is now determined to Iexercise the greatest caution In the mat- *ier, and to give each individual case his >undivided personalattention. Hiadrsl istep, therefore, was to suspend action In I rthe Attorney General's office upon all ! iapplications for pardon until somedis* pposition has been made of those already Iaccumulated. Nomore requisitions are cto bemade on the Stale Department for tpardon until further orders. [

The President is reported tohave beensevere in his remarks to those,whonp- Jbroached him on the subject of pardons .1to-day. One old gentleman had a Irl tir 1in bis possession statingthai hi-- pardon >could he obtained for nine hundred dol- 'bars. Tho President desired to know 'who offered to obtain it for that sum.He wanted ahove all things to ascertain twho the men were that accepted bribes. >He said be bad been notified thatunfair |and dishonest influences were used toobtain partlons, but he desired specific iinformation instead of generalities,anddeclared that his office was the liardoiioffice, and that the Attorney General'soffice had littleto dowith it. The news-papers might assert that two hundredwerepardoued daily because that num-ber of requisitions passed through theAttorneyGeneral'sottice ? but he wishedthe factto beknown that he investigatedeach case himself, and only grantedsuch petitionsas recommendthemselves

to Ins clemency. Some of thesepresenl ,1asked for permission to call again for a nfurtherconsideration tit their eases. The vPresidentsignificantly replied?"it I vwould in;.some time before many more I \paradons were granted," This would | (seem to disposeof the projeetoforgan-11Isillg ? separate I'tndon llureaii. |The Star of yesterday says:An unusual large crowd of pardon

seekers assembled at the office of the ;Attorney General to-day, completelyilllingupthe ante room and worryingihe courteouss pardon clerks, ColonelPleasantand Majorstiltalmost beyondendurance. .Many of theapplicants de-feat theirown purpose by their presis-tent importunities. They are notevenwilling to await their own turn for aninterview, hut interrupt others converg-ing with the clerks, and in many otherways lender themselves a nuisance.The work of this office is conductedwith the greatest despatch, ami parlieshaving business with it will neverlose 'by observing the customary civilities ofgentlemen. Among those Awaiting an ?interview with the Attorney General !this morning was Lieutenant GeneralEwell, whocalled on the President Sal-urday in relation lo bis application forpardon. The President courteously butfirmly declined to make anyexception ?In bis favor, and "Mr. Kwelf" (as he In-troduced himself) will remain in the 'same category with his brother rebelleaders.

A> Ihe lime of Mr. Davis' trial draw*nearer the Interest which is felt, in it.result increases, it was thought thai bypostponing the event public opinion intho North would soften toward Davis,hut there is no indication of such achange. <>n the contrary, elrcumstan-Istances are always occurring which I',strengthen the desire to see tin- heaviest tpunishment fall upon bis bead. Noth- 1UUJ will satisfy a very lai'itc portion of 1the people but Mr. Davis' life. Even I1 the most moderate men express iifeelingof anxiety lest the Governnientshouldbe content with bis banishment. Thiseager craving for vengeance on an indi-vidual, not.withstanding the awful visi-tation which has fallen upon theentire 'South, and which might seem enoughto appeasethe demands of the most vin-di. live, mayappear vciy reprehensiblelo peopleIn England, but it m not to »'*-i'f aMondofv i'.s- it looks *tf o dihiftntw.

If thereIs any bitterness entertainedby the Northern people towards theSouth?and very rarely indeed have iseen evidences of it it springs from thesame cause which makes them talk ofDavis as of a being scarcely human.Thatcause is the incredible and Infa-mous treatment which the Northerncaptured soldiers received in Southernprisons.

The evidence upon which thechargesof cruelty rests \* overwhelming ami n,i-misirirati!'. A Sanitary Commissionwas appointed by the Government to in-quire into the circumstances, and themembersof it examineda great many)men who hud been prisoners in theSouth, someof whom were at death's:door when they, told their story. The ;testimonybus been published by ollici:,!sanction, and photographs of a few of 'theprisoners are prefixed to the narra-tive. Photographs do not lie,and thesepicturesof livingskeletons, covered \\ iiiihorrible sores and wounds, speak forthemselves. Ibil still morepainful wlt-iics.-cs against the prisons of the Southfire to Im' met with in almost every vil-lage in the presence ofpoor young fellows who have returned in a stale ofidiocy, or paralysed, or eaten op withscurvy.

A wretched objectwas pointed oul lome the other day. There Were still thetraces ofarobust and strong man abouthim, but be was physically a wreck amihis mind was utterly gone.
