Miles Has Sense,

CHICAGO, Dec 3.-Gen. Nelson A. Miles
is one of a no inconsideeble number OF
public men who can devoutly pray to be
delivered from their well. meaning, but at
the same time fool, friends. The inspient
efforts to create presidential boom in his
behalf, are decidedly distasteful to the
man most directly concerned, and Gen.
Miles does not regard himself as, even i'll
the most remote degree, presidential
possibility. He is said to incline strongly
to the belief that history records very few
instances of successful military men be-
coming successful politicians or statesmen,
while the pages of past times are streWn
with the stories of failures.
But what is regarded in military circles
as of the greatest importance, however, is
the fact that he has already been identi-
fed with the army for period Of twenty
one years, and that four years hence,
according to established precedent, the
chief command of the army should fail
upon his shoulders The fact is realized
both by General Miles and his most init
mate friends, that to enter the arena Of
politics would be the taking OF step that
might seriously jeopardize his chances of
securing the merited promotion. 1t is
barely possible that unless the old adsge,
"that discretion is the better part of
valor," is bored into the skulls of the gem
erals over.zealous acquaintances, his
name may be presented to the next ma
tional convention in complimentary
way, but even such step as this would
be certain to meet with prompt repuda-
tion in his behalf

New York, Dec. Sit is said that one
of the objects Of the present visit to this
city OF Mrs. Annie Besant, the former
colleague OF Charles Bradaugh, and now
the high priestess Of the theosophists, is
to organize a supply depot for the distri-
button through England from this country
of literature in aid of the propaganda OF
the Malthusan doctrine, and which re-
lates to methods whereby fathers and
mothers can prevent an increase in their
families and consequently decrease in
the population. The English postolfce
department, with the concurrence Of
nearly every member Of the cabinet, has
prohibited the circulation of this literature
through the mails, and has determined to
prosecute all those who engage i'll its cir
culation. The Malthusian society, how
ever, has organized defense fund, which
has reached several thousands of dollars
and has obtained legal advice to the effect
that such literature can not be seized if it
comes in the mails from the United States.
1t is therefore proposed to establish quar-
ters in this city, from which the society
may continue to SOW the seed of Mathus-
ianism throughout England.
