President johnson and Ihe ImPOr
tuning SOuIherners who Wait upon
Him.
The following is special Washington
dispatch to the New York Tribune:
The President seems to be getting
slightly Disguised with the perpetual
and persistent attacks of Southern adj
visers and par,ion-seekers, and has
plainly intimated that hereafter he will
exercise greater discrimination in ex-
tending Executive clemency to eN-rebel
applicants. Among the visitors Mt the
White House yesterday, was notori-
Gus eX-rebel General, who insisted on
sending in his card, with the request
That the President Immediately grant
him private interview. aHI
Considering the pressing OFF cial bust
ness in which he was then engaged, of
greater Importance than listening to an
hHrangue from an ex-rebel General, he
returned the card with the verbal mes
sage that he considered the request i'm
pertinent and could not accedetO it. A
Richmond gentleman called on the
President n few days since, and, not
withstanding the fact that large
crowd was waiting, insisted on "defi-
ming his position" and suggested n GER
tain policy which, in his opinion, ought
to be carried out by the Government.
The President listened nttentively for
a few moments, but at last becoming
annoyed at the fellows impertinence,
cast his card on the floor and informed
him that their interview was at an end,
The fellow took his hat and his leave ut
the same time. Among the flexible
knees at present In suppllanoe bowed
before the President is Martin ]. Craw-
ford, formerly prominent member of
Congress from Georgia, and an unmiti-
gated rebel during the rebellion.
