Gen. Henderson,s Abuse. &.

THE CABINET UNANIMOUSLY CONDEMN HIS LOOSE
TONGUE, AND DIRECT THE ENGAGEMENT OF A
LAWYER WITH MORE SENSE OF pRoPRIEIY.
The Cabinet, yesterday, considered the lam
guage used by Mr.. Henderson, in the Avery
trial at st. Louis, In which he went out of his
way to attack the President. 1t was fully agreed
that the remarks of Mr.. Henderson were in no
regard justihable, the members Of the Cabinet
expressing themselves without reserve in this
matter. The result was that it was determined
to have a change made in the special counsel,
and the Attorney General prepared the follow
ing despatch, which was telegraphed to United
States Attorney Dyer late in the afternoon
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE,
WASHINGTON, D. O., Dec. 10, 1851
TO Hon. D. p Dyer, United States Attorney, ST.
Louis, Missouri:
The sworn report Of Mr.. Henderson's speech
forwarded by Mr.. Eaton and referred to by both
you and Mr. Henderson in your dispatches of
yesterday as correct report, WAS read in full
Cabinet to-day, and it WAS regarded by every
member as an outrage upon professional pro-
priety thus to reflect (without shadow of reason)
upon the President, by whom his employment
by this Department was sanctioned in order that
no lmpediment might be placed in the way of
bringing to speedy punishment every defrauder
of the revenue of st. Louis.
You will advise General Henderson of his dis
charge from further service and secure in his
place the aid of the most able and efficient
counsel you Call find. without regard to his pol
itics.

Attorney General.

The New Fire-Beli,

COMPLAINT THAT 1T CANNOT he HEARD-REMARKs
OF Mr.. FARRELL, wHo pwELLs IN PIcKELTowN.
There Is complaint that the new fre-bell in
the City Hall tower cannot be heard at dis
tance In Council, last evening, Mr.. McGlin-
chey stated that it with difficulty the strokes
Of the bell can be heard at the Water Witch en-
glne-house, and that they cannot be heard at all
when the Water Witch bell is being rung. At
any rate the new bell, weighing 5000 pounds
failed to make AZ loud sound from tho high
tower as the old bell which weighed but 400
pounds did from the old low belfry.
Mr.. Paynter oorroborated the remarks of the
first speaker in regard to the deficiency of the
bell IN giving q full volume Of sound, and stated
that the Public Building Committee had ventila-
ted the belfry and removed all the woodwork
that could be removed, consistent with Esafety,
aud yet the sound was insufficient to be heard
by all the Fire Companies.
To this question, however like all others there
il negative side, and it remained for Mr.. Far
rell to show up the good religious traits OF that
bsl. 81 am not fireman never would be"
says Mr. Farrell, hut II am member OF church,
and live over Eleventh street bridge, in that de-
ectable paradise known Pcaeltown. / hear
that bell every morning, and it's sound fills me
with religious devotion AZ it calls me forth to my
morning matins." A doubt as to whether the
new bell was failure Or not, was created by
Mr. Farrels remarks and resolution to refer
the subject to the Public Building Committee
waa adopted.
