and propitous.
At an early age he had prelilection
for the profession Of arms and retained
II. But when he was 16 years old he went
into mercantile pursuits in Boston and
continued there for five years. As pub
lie affairs became very serious he de-
voted himself TO the study Of both milf
tary and political matters, and was
taught by an ola French colonel.
At length, with the aid Of others, he
raised q company of soldiers, and was
elected their captain. But Governor Nor
gan wanted that post for one OF his pets,
and squeezed Miles down TO first lieutcn-
ancy Still, his patriotism and trust in
the future led him to submit to this in
dignity. He was rapidly promoted. and
as early as September 90. 1852. was COM
lniesioned by the same Governor 10 a full

the 18th Of August. 1854. he had attained
the rank Of brCvet majorgeneral.
lie was IN much Of the hardest Of t1e
fighting during the war, and was wounded
three times His service was with the
First Division Of the Second Army Corps
of the Army of the Potomac, and he cX-
tolls their exploits very highly. He says
that but for q slight accident his division
would have had the honor Of having the
surrender at Appomattox take place In
It's front He gives a lively picture or the
rejoicing OF his soldiers over the prospect
Of peace.
