The Pardoning Power.

NEW IOhhy June AZ,
The Tribune's pecial says There is a
good prospect that the pardoning carni-
val Is ABOUT over. The scores of emin.
ent statesmen, lawyers and politicians
who have throngad the White House
and secured the pardon of culprits for
abundant fees, are likely to find their
business curtailed on account of it's
past success.
A strong pressure was brought to bear
upon President Johnson for the pardon
of Wilmer who has been sentenced to
two years Imprisonment and fine of
100000; but he utterly refused to in
terfere with the finding Of the Court.
On another occasion, he is said to have
remarked that there had got to be
limit to these Executive interferences.
The Times special says: Among the
reoeis pardoned within the last forty
elgnt hours is L. McBruce, of Kentucky,
laVe member of the rebel Congress, and
formerly of the firm of Bruce. Arm
stfong, q Co, of Nashville, and subse-
quehIly at Atlanta, heavy contractors
LOT the rebel Government. He has made
over million of dollars ont of the war
which is safely invested, and he now re-
ceives absolution and protection for his
lil-gotten gains. His application was
strongly endorsed by Geo. d. Prentice of
the Louisville Journal, and it is also
stated In his behalf that he was very
KIM to our Andersonville prisoners. 4
great many instances of hospitality to
lhese patriots are now coming to light,
which, strange to say, We're never heard
of before.
