MVQORATOR
ANDY JOHNSON'S FUN. ,
How He Pardoned Bob Johnson, of
Arkansas.
Andrew Johnson was a strange
beinc, understood by few and incom
prehensible to the greater number of
those in public and private life when
he unexpectedly became President of
the United States. The war had
hardly been closed, telegraphic and
postal communication had not been
re-established between the sections,
and the leaders of the great rebellion
were m a staie oi great anxiety as 10
what would be done with them by
the Federal authority for their par
ticipation in the rebellion. Tho
wildest rumors were circulated of
Federal vengeance to be wreaked at
short notice upon all who had been
prominent in the Confederate cause,
and naturally there was not a little
trepidation among them as rumor
followed rumor of drumheads, hang
ings, banishments and imprison
ments to be meted out to the main
offenders without mercy. This feel
ing was enhanced in th'e contempla
tion of the fact that Andrew Johnson
had succeeded to the Presidency.
Ilia well-known implacability, es
pecially towards those Southern men
who had, bv re3ienine their seats in
Congress, made the rebellion possiblo
wa3 remembered with augmented
terrors, and a great cry went up from
the scorc3 of quaking throats, of
"What shall save us from the dire
Nemesis?"
Prominent among those who ap
prehended they knew not what was
the late Col. ftobert W. Johnson, of
Arkansas. It had fallen out that in
the spring of 18G1, on the very day
Col. Johnson resigned his seat in the
senate of the United States, that he
and Andrew Johnson (who was then
very bitter in his speeches against
the'Secessionists) had had a personal
altercation on the floor a few mo
ments before the Senate was called to
oider, which was only prevented
from becoming a serious fisticuff en
counter by the interference of by
standers, and so the two Johnsons
had parted, exchanging mutual
epithets of hostility. Kemerabering
this, among other causes of disquiet,
Col. Johnson, who, at tho Lee sur
render, found himself in an unenvi
able situation, stripped of all his
worldly possessions and practically
without where to lay his head, be
thought himself that the only way to
begin to rehabilitate himself so as to
be able to resume his former profes
sion of a lawyer was through a
Presidential pardon. Coupling in his
mind the old personal quarrel with
the wild stories he heard on all sides
that the President of the United
States had been empowered by Con
gress to hang or shoot the leading
men who had surrendered, he re
flected that his chances with his old
foe were slim indeed. But seeing no
other course open he made up his
mind to try the venture and take
what fate should accord him.
Accordingly Col. Johnson applied
for and obtained a pass from the
commandment of a Federal military
post and journeyed to Washington.
Arriving there in the early evening,
he proceeded to the Metropolitan
Hotel, where he locked himself in his
room, fearing to show his head to a
chance of recognition, either by an
accidental old acquaintance or,
worse yet, a provost-marshal. Dur
ing the night he tried to consider
what would be the outcome of his ex
pedition, and the conclusion was any
thing but hopeful. Arising from his
sleepless bed in the morning, he
thought over the situation again, and
finally determined that he would
"face the music" without further de
lay and end the suspense. So at as
early an hour as he could gain admit
tance to the White House he cor
nered himself out of the hotel and
into a hack and proceeded to make
his venture.
Arriving at the Executive Mansion
he wrote his name on a card and sent
it to the President In a very few
moments the usher returned and an
nounced, in a voice of fearful portent,
that tho President would see him at
once. The door swung open, and he
found himself in the presence of An
drew Johnson. Col. Johnson, in re
lating this incident to a friend years
afterwaids, said that the moment his
eye fell upon the President, for the
first and only timo in his life he was
afraid. He advanced to the end of
the table nearest the door and placed
his hand on it to steady himself. At
the other end sat old Andrew, his
face worked up to an apparent frenzy
of passion, and his eyes fairly emit
ting sparks of fire. His glance
struck through the Colonel like elec
tricity, and he began to tremble at
the knees. This lasted a few mo
ments when Andrew broke out.
"You here! you infernal traitor,
you know where you stand ? Do you
dare come here to tho capital that
you have tried to destroy? Why,
you wretched rebel! D n you, I
have a great mind to hang you to a
lamp-post." The Colonel stammered
out that he had come to the Presi
dent to plead for his life. "Come to
plead for your life," sneered the
President, "why, your life is for
feited a thousand times." Then fol
lowed a series of expressions of &
most sulphurous nature, and which
had such an effect on the Colonel
that he said he had to hold on to the
table with both, hands to keep from
sinking to the floor. Next came &
pause of some duration, during which
the President glared upon him with
bloodshot eyes and a fiendish sneer.
Finally he broke out again: "You
miserable traitor I rebel! assassin of
your countrj'! you deserve to oe
strung up without mercy, and I'll
very soon settle your case for you."
Beaching out he seized a pen and
paper, and, with an implacable look
on his face, dashed off a few lines, to
which he affixed his signature, and
pitching it across the table, ex
claimed: "There, take thatj and
make the most of it," and turned
away.
Col. Johnson said he had just pres
ence of mind enough to reach outnnd
take the paper, but was so confused
and blinded by his emotions that it
was a minute before he could make
out the words on the pane. I v.m-
an unconditional pardon ! Tils poor
Colonel said the revulsion in his feel
ings was so great that he was abso
lutely beside himself for as!u t ihn;,
and before he couM o" t i '
thoughts sufficiently to couiprehenl
what had taken place, old Andrew
suddenly came up behind him, hit
him a sounding slap on the back, and
roared out in his loudest veice:
"Bob, old fellow, how are you?" and
seizing him by the hand he shook it
warmly, accompanied with many ex
pressions of good feeling.
Col. Johnson remarked that he had
been in many a hot place in his life,
and in plenty of situations of great
danger, but never in so hot a skir
mish as that was while it lasted. "I
tell you, said the Colonel, "Andrew
Johnson was one of the bravest men
that overlived." BenPerley Pooro,
