General Franz SiSel.
From the Chicago Times.

From the Chicago Times.
No soldier of the Republic has won a
nobler and more enduring reputation for
skill, bravery and patriotism, than General
Franz Sigel Like Meagher, Corcoran, and
Shields, he proves by his career how devoted
to their country are our naturalized citizens,
and how unjust was that party which few
years ago attempted to prescribe them.
They now bear their share in the trials of
the country, and emulate their native born
brethren iu devotion to the cause of the
Union.
1t Sigel was nothing more than the trust
ed friend aud colaborer of the lamented
Lyon, be would have lived forever upon the
pages OF American history but he has a
genius and reputation of his own which
promise to place him high in the list of
glorious names of the Republic, and which,
in event of Fremobts resignation or removal,
will direct many eyes to him as one OF the
commanding military spin its of the country.
lie is still young man-not more than
thirty seven years old. He was general
in the revolution of As in Germany, and an
officer 10 the Plussian army at an age when
most boys are under the superintendent OF
their mothers. He has been soldier from
his childhood, and has enjoyed and improved
every opportunity for military education
and experience.
His conduct in Missouri has been so
brilliant as to call forth the CONNER datiOn
Of the nation and his advancement by the
government TO him and to Lyon we owe
the safety of Illinois, the retention OF Mis-
! no Cd
| secession was most powerful, he acted in
manner which left no doubt as to his con-
sentative loyalty. He has not been accused
of violating any law of the land. Like
Mcclellan and the immortal Lyon, he loves
the institutions of his country so we'll that
| he will die in their defence, but will never
disobey their injunctions. We do not
know what party be belonged to before
the WARRIOR do we care. We only know
