President significantly replied -" II
would he some time before many more
pardons were granted This would
seem to dispose of the project of organ

The ,St0s' of yesterday says:
An unusual large crowd of pardon
seekers assembled at the office of the
Attorney General to-day, completely
filling up the ante-room and worrying
the courteous pardon clerks, Colonel
Pleasant and Major Stitt almost beyond
endurance. Many Of the applicants de-
feat their own purpose by their presis-
tent opportunities. They are not even
willing to await their own turn for an
interview, but interrupt others convers-
ing with the clerks, and in many other
ways render themselves nuisance.
The work of this Office is conducted
with the greatest despatch, and parties
having business with il will never lose
by observing the customary civilities of
gentlemen. Among those awaiting am
interview with the Attorney General
this morning was Lieutenant General
Ewell, who called on the President Sat
urday in relation to his application for
pardon. The President cautiously but
firmly declined to make any exception
in his favor, and "Mr. Ewell" las he in

Lee Know OF the manner in which
southern prisoners Were treatedY The
