numbers BC BLOSS OJF lli Personal to the and From the Washington j The dismissal of General Henderson Assistant District Attorney at St Louis naturally recall mauy which may be at the present time to consider always known as a politician inore upon accident and shrewd ior achieving success than in having fi political sentiments He was elected to the benate vmk Giatz Brown ins or sir friends in the Missouri Legis lature held the balance of power and the loyal men ol tbat preferred to take him un certain as he was and secure Gratz Brown then an antislavery leader than to ailo v Henderson to sell out to the quasi reoel Democracy and be elected with one of their leaders The case was simply this Hen derson was determined to the position from one party or the other arid he thought he would stand a better chance of success bv unit ing with tne Radicals His record as a Sen ator is well known He always disappointed every critical occasion as was evidenced m his vote upon impeachment when but a few hours before the vote was taken he allowed the friends of his State to believe that he would vote fur conviction Mr Henderson lost ail influence m the State and retired from the Senate a disappointed mun But standing his action on the impeachment trial and his loss of influence at home he still had ambitious and one of these was to be made Secretary ot the Treasury under Presi dent Grant in 1869 and failing in th he was soil more dissatisfied to wards the Pres ident and the Republican party When the contest was waging between General Loan and Carl Schurz lor the Senate ilr Henderson then had a lew in the Legislature some or them Democrats some moderate Republicans one especially D P Dyer the present District Attorney andit was these that in the quarrel Henderson be elected but this utterly and there was more ill reel the part of the neglected statesman boon after m 1870 occurred bolt in the Radical party in Missouri under Gratz Brown and as usual 3tr Henderson did not boldly join either side but secretly aided the bolters to destroy the party because of his hatred towards President Grant and others whom he supposed bad caused his retirement mto private life But the retired statesman grew weary ot Ms country home and moved to bt Louis and when tbe remnant of the two elements of the Republican in Missouri endeavored TO unite in 1872 he thought there was a chance to gain some thin oby friendly to the President so he succeeded m being made candidate for Governor to lead the forlorn hope m the State not that there was the least chance of election but to secure some prestige at W ashington for tbe future Aud what was this Grant was reelected and soon Mr Henderson was desirous of appointed to a foreign mission as a recognition from the President but in this he tailed and it is said that both and his estimable lady an old resident of this city were verv indignant at the failure and complained of their treatment by the President and his fam ily and right here may be found much of tbe animus that prompted the laie Assistant Dis Attorney to mate tbe assault he did upon the President His time for revenge had come He had used the old friendship of his townsman Dyer to become assistant in the prosecution at St Louis he had been allowed to bave charge ot the case and in his speech upon the trial he has squared as he thinks the President and repaired his wounded honor Was this just on his part Let us see Mr Hendersons brother a manufacturer was indicted for de the Government under Johnsons administration and was charged with having burned buildings and falsified books to conceal the fraud a case so bad that Mr of Iowa one ot the for the defence withdrew from it when the false books vere his hands Does not Mr Handerson remember his coming on to Washington and finally succeeding in getting the case nolle and his brother free Should not this action make him a little more charitable to parties at least not vet convicted and scarcely charged with crime And more than this was it necessary for him to vent his kept wrath upon the President for his own supposed grievances When the President in bis earnest desire to punish crime his own bitter enemy in the person of Mr genderson to aid in the prosecution of the Ring and directed those in charge to take their own course in fact aiding them in possible manner to do so was not Mr Henderson bound by common courtesv to use no stronger term to treat the Executive with respect and does it not seem entirely on his pan to go oat of his way to make this bitter persona attack
