             DEATH OF GEN. KRZYZANOWSKI.
  Gen. Vladimir Krzyzanowski, Polish
patriot and soldier, of the war of the rebellion in
this country, died at his home, No. 870 Lexing-
ton-avenue, early yesterday morning. He had
been ill for a year with Bright's disease, and for
the past two months had been confined to his 
bed. Gen. Krzyzanowski was born at Roznova,
Posen, Germany, on July 8, 1824. In 1846 he
took part in the Polish revolution and subse-
quently fled to America to escape exile to Siberia.
 He worked as a civil engineer for several
years, and at length set up business as a mer-
chant in Washington. When the late war broke
out he became Colonel of the Fifty-eigth Regi-
ment of New-York Volunteers. He served dur-
ing the entire war, first with the Army of the
Potomac, and later in Georgia and Alabama.
For meritorious services he was promoted to be
a Brigadier-General. At the close of the war he
became connected with the Customs Service. In
1867 he was sent to Alaska, and soon afterward
to the Isthmus of Panama.
 He became a Special Agent in the Custom
House in this city in 1883, and he continued in
that position until the time of his death. He
will be buried in Greenwood Cemetery to-mor-
row afternoon by Steinway Post, G.A.R., in
which he was a Past Commander.
