Miles, one of the is eago T'ribune, [€pecial ] members of the Swaim court-martial, one of the youngest brigadier generals in the army. Ho has had & most remark- able military rceord, The close of the rebellion found him at thoage of 25a major-general. Uuster was the only other boy general who was younger than Miles, and Custer was only two monthas younger than Miles, This grade of major generals was not an ornamental one handed to Milea through political iufluence aftor the fighting was over. He reached thet rank during the war, and fcr a short time waa in command of the second corpe. Ho is ati/l & young man. He is only 44 years of age and has been a brigadier-general in the regular service since 1880, and s in command of the de- partment of the extreme northwest., He oy 0/ )/ the ball would have g ne siraight through his abdomen. 1 calicd upon the general the other night and tried to get him to talk about his engagemen's. But, while he was willing to talk upon almost eve y other subject upon carth, when he came to he subject of himself he wou d say nothing | beyond the shortest of all possible answe 8 to my inquiries. He appea ed to be in capable of dilating at length upon hisown explois. T asked him what he thought was the hottest engagement he was ever | in He replied *‘Spottsylvania.” A fter | that engagemen® was over the ground in front of what is called the angle of tha engagement, for a long distance wa lite ally covered with desd bodies so t ono conl 1 not walk without rtepping upon dead men, An oak tree, which was two feet in diameter, which stood direct y in the line of the most murderous fire of that day, was so chipped t'rough with bullets that it fell, and if it had not been for h's dexterity one of the Miles would have been killed by the fall ing of the tree.

Tasked Gen, Miles to explaln to me the courago which keeps men up In the face of such a fire as tbat which was poured down upon our men at Spottsyl vania when they charged in solid masses forty deep literally into the jaws of death. His reply was a very simple one: *Dis cipline first, then pride and patriotism " The discipline is tor those whom noth- ing elee would sustain, for under the rules of war the man who deseris the field in the face of the enemy is punis:- able with death, Pride and patristism isa very noldlerly-looking man, He is slightly abovemedium height,with a round well-filled-out figure, His head is large, while every feature of his face indicates decision and character. There is not a weak live in it. His forehead is broad and high. His nose is a fierce Roman hook, undorneath which is_a long, drooping, military mustache, The rest of his face is smooth shaven, with the excep ion of sustain the best class. The rigid disot- pline of monarchier, however, cannot be maintained under a ropublic. During the lats war many thousands deserted where hundreds were panished. Durlog the Franco Prussian war there were only 160 deserters from the Germany aimy; but with that army was always the! em. peror, who s the supreme authority. Punishments decreed by him were swift one inch of beard in front of each ear. He is what might be called a dark blonde.

He is now cen to twenty-|on the retired list. Gen. Miles has made as brilliant a rep- utation in the west as could be made in the barren field of Indian warfare. He has developed great skill in managing the Indians. He is more than a soldler. He ia also a student of the highest forms of government. He bas mastered the Indian problem. He is perfectly confi- dent that tho time for caring for the In— dian as 2 ward of the nation has passed.

He accept- ed the situation, however, although he was by no means satisffod, and with his regiment jolned the Army of the Poto- mac, There he met with a sudden pro motion to relatively very high rank. To his pleasiog address he owed his firat pro- motion, He became acquainted with Col. Barlow, who when he first met him was the lieutenant-colonel of the Sixty- first New York reglment. They became great friends. It was too early In the war for the great disparity in ++ +o+s Bavaria, [ rank between the two men {0 stand in New York Cor, the way of their intimacy. One day Bar- low heard that his colonel was going to be transferred and that.he was ging to be made colonel, and to he went to Miles and said to him: ‘‘How would you like to be lleutenant colonel of the Sixty fir chusetts lieutenant said that he would like it firat rate, He would like also to have command of the army of the Poto- mac. He thought one about as near as Barlow said: *“‘You never mind. ['ll fixitif you want it.” Barlow wrote to Gov. Morgan, He must have had a good deal of iefluence with the governor, as the commission for Miles come might back, This iuvor was all the more marked, as 1t was the first and only instance during that year that Gov. Morgan went outslde of the state for officers, 1IN THE ARNMY OF THE POTOMAC. Ho served with the Army of the Po- tomac all through the war, and took patt in all of its pored engagements. He was all through the terriblo struggle in the Wilderness, and, although he was se- verely wounded a number of times, came out of the war in fine physical condtion He was wounded seriously three times— once in the throat, once in the groin, and once in the ankle, There is a was ragged line from his chin running a-ound towards his left shoulder to-day, the scar of the first-mentioned wound. ~The bul- let that made this t'ack just skimmed over the juguar vein, Tho narrowest call the general had during the war was in connection with the sec nd mentioned wound, A rifle ball at very short range struck the plate of his belt and glanced ' down into his left leg through the gr in, 1f it had no* been for the breast-plate cellent health and looks fally as young to-day as many men in the serate 15 years younger than he. He appears to have a better lease of life than his col- league, who 1s 20 years younger than he. A strarger would not think there was much oifference between the ages of the Vermont senators. Mr. Morrill is a man over six feet in height. He is slightly round-shouldered. This detracts from what would otherwise b3 commanding figure. He is very pre- cise in his manner and very neat and careful in his drese, as every old man should be. Ha has often been detcribed as resembling Charles Sumner to o great degree. Theroisa resemblsnce which the Jines of time have strengthened. He has the Sumner nose. His gray side whiskers are cut in exactly the eame fashion as were Sumncr’s, The general carriage of his head, the sweep of the soft iron gray hair, are the same. The lower part of the face is thinner. Ths resemblance is so marked, however, in its main poculiarities that a bust of the senator in the parlor of his houte is often taken by etrangers for that of Sumner. o ——— Serd to 0. I.

The friend said that was all bosh—that a tender fowl put on a hot fire was sure to come out pal- atable, and no amount of skill could "ac- complish anything more. But Phil in- sisted that the restaurant of the cook re- ferred to was the exclusive place In which the thing could be done In prime style, and he Invited the other to test the ques- tion with him the next evening. At the appointed time six or seven gentlemen sat down to a dinner, of which the chief dish was roast chicken. During that iw- portant course Phil alternated his mouth- fuls with hndnw? remsrks, asserting the delicacy of the flavor, the tenderness of the flesh, the daintiness of the cook- ery, and 60 on, until somebody's irrepes- sible grin set the table in a roar, Then the swindle was uproariously exposed. The particular chicken set before Phil was bogus—not a chicken at all, except for the skin and the bones, the rest being a clever structure of veal and plg, in im- itatlon of the fow), and impregnated by chicken gravy."” YOUNGMEN!-READ THIS, Tax Vouraio Beur Co , of Marshall, Mich,, offer to send their celebrated Evrorro-Vor- 7A10 BecT and other ILLECTRIC APPLIANCES on trial for thirty days, to men (young or old) aflioted with nervous debility, loss of vitality aud manhood, and all kindred troubles.
