Miller is an Action-Townsfolk card from Allies. It is a cantrip sifter that acts like a souped-up Border Guard, letting you choose one of the top four cards in your deck to go in your hand, and discarding the rest.
It is part of a split pile that it shares with the other Townsfolk: Town Crier, Blacksmith, and Elder.

Trivia
Secret History
A few cards tried out for the 3rd slot. There was a Silversmith that gave bonuses for Silvers in hand; there was a Town Doctor that triggered on trashing cards, to get them back. There were cards that gave you +Cards or + based on how many cards you had in play, or how many differently named cards. There was a cantrip that drew other Townsfolk from your top 4 cards. Miller is an old old card, a version of it predates there being expansions. This shape seemed the right one and worked out.
Previous outtake
There is a card with a long history that had its last stand trying to get into [Guilds]. Once, the main set had a card, look at your top four, put one in your hand, discard the rest. I dropped it from the main set for being too boring. It resurfaced in Prosperity with +1 Action, and well it was crazy powerful. It cost and I thought it might work out kind of like Throne Room, but it was way better. It really wanted to cost , so I tried several versions of it with different tweaks before giving up on it. Then I brought it back in other sets a few times and tried to get a good one. The version in Guilds was +1 action, could only get actions, but played the action it got. Anyway I did Herald instead, hooray.
