that Lis lute triumpL at Carthngo was no
lucky accident, but tho result of combined
experience and thorough training. A
writer in one of tho public journals, speak
iug of this officer, says:
He is a thoroughly educated, scientific
soldier. I never Leard that any person of
tho numerous military gentlemen from Ger
many thinks himself superior to him in
that respect, and I doubt very much
whether any member of our regular army
has a right to do so. Under trying; mili
tary and political circumstances he con
ducted very creditably the important com
niand in-chier at tho close of tho Uadcn
Revolution; and it is a historical fact that
in this country can be found very few per
sons who ever held a higher, a larger or a
moro important command. lie is fully ac
quainted with onr language and our insti
tutions, and seemingly loves the Uuion hot
ter than the average of F. F. V.'s. Rut.
above all, he Las conducted liimsclf during
his stay iu America, as a quiet, unassum
ing, lone citizen, earning his bread by tho
sweat of his brow, rather than playing tho
Chevalier at th expense of others.
Colonel Sigel is comparatively a young
man; but Lis aetivo military life aid tho
experience gaiucd in European warfare
eminently fit him for tho command in
which he has already given proof of raro
ability and singular coolness iu tho Lour
of danger. He will be frequently Leard
from this in campaign.
Hon. J. M. Richard on, once Sec'y of
State of Missouri, and now a strong Union
mnn, was present at the battle of Carthage,
and says that Sigcl's couraje, coolness, and
skill were never exceeded on n battle-field.
He told Lis soldiers they were fighting not
only for their own preservation but that of
all tho Federal forces in southwest Mis
souri, who, scatt'red ns they wcro in bat
talions nnd regiments over an extended
range of country, would bo attacked by
the rebels one after another with
overwlielmin"; forces, and bo cut off
Ho often repented this exhortation du-
I rin- the dar tcllin- thci if ther would
"
save themselves by steadiness, discipline
and courage, they would cl.so save o.OOO
comrades wLo would be imperilled by -their
defeat. The wUdoia of these prediction
has since been verified. The rebels lost so
heavily tlicy were unable to continue in
pursuit beyond Cnrtbage, nnd the Federal
forces ull concentrated at Springfield.
TnEsiDENT Lixcot.s. The Louisvillo
Journal publishes a lr n nnd able letter
from Mr. nolt, late U. S. Secretary of
War. lie counsels Kentucky to stand by
the Union, and urges the importance of
strengthening the bands of the Adminis
tration. As regards the action of Presi
dent Lincoln, he s?.ys:
" While a far more fearful responsibility
Lns fallen upon President Lincoln tlmn up
on any of Lis predecessors, it must bo ad
mitted tlmt he has met it with promptitude
and fearlessness. Cicero, in one of his or
ations ngainst Catiline, speaking of the
credit due himself for having suppressed the
j conspiracy of that arch traitor, aid, " if
the glory ol turn who rounded Home was
great, how much greater should be that of
him who had saved il from overthrow af
ter it had grown to be hc mistress of the
world?-' So it may be said or the glory of
that .statesman orehie ftaiu who shall nalch
this republic from tho vortex of rcvolution,
now thai it has expanded from ocean to
ocean, Las become the admiration of tho
world, nnd has rendered tho fountains of
the lives of thirty millions of pcoplo foun
tains of happiness.
1 he vigorous measures adopted for the
! surety or Washington and the Government
itself may seem open to criticism in some of
their details, to those who hove yet to learn
that not only has war, like peace, its laws,
but that it has also its privileges and its du
ties. Whatever of severity, or even of ir
regularity, may Lave arisen, will find its
justification in the pressure of tho terriblo
necessity under which tho Administration
has been callrd to act. When n man leels
the poigmird of the destroyer at Lis bosom,
Lc is not likely to consult' the law looks
ns to the mode or measure of Lis rights of
self defense. What is truo of individuals,
is, in this respect, equally true of govern
ments. The man w ho thinks he has become
disloyal becnuso of what tho Administra
tion Lns done, will probably discover af
ter o close examination, that he was dis
loyal before. Rut for what has been done,
Washington might cro this have Icon a
smouldering heap of ruins."
The City of Damascis is Rcish.
Damascus Is now almost a heap of ruins,
charred and blackened by fire. A recent
visitor says ho saw not a soul, except hero
nnd thero a lazy Arab driving his donkey
before him, laden with tho debris ol tho
fullcu Louses. That is what tho Turks cull
rebuilding tho quartur. Throughout tha
length and breadlli of what but a year ago
was the handsomest part of tho city, not
ono single house Is now standing. Greek,
Latin, Syiinu churches and convents, woro
mingled in ono common destruction TLcro
wcro still remaining many traces of Iho for
mer magnificence of the houses. I'rokeu
uinrblo columns and bits of tessclutcd pave
