Aaron Burr was by nature and train ing a man of extraordinary self con trol. He allowed no circumstances to throw hlui off bls la1 lance. An auec- dote toll! by Rufus Choate to the late Richard IL Dana, recorded in Mr. Dana's "Diary,” illustrates the callous- n« ss which aided Burr so greatly tn controlling himself. Several years after the d«»ath of Hamilton, killed by Burr In a duel, Burr visited Boston, and Mr. Devereux of Salem paid him some at- tentions. The visitor was taken to the Boston atheneum, where, whllo the two men were walking through the gnl lery of sculpture, Mr. De.ereux hap pened to catch sight of a bust of Ham ilton. The thought flashed across his mind that Burr might not care to be con front'd w ith the sight of tho features of the man he bud slain. But no. Burr was undisturbed. He also espied the bust. and. although Mr. Devereux had instinctively turne«l away, be walked up to It and said In a loud tone: "Ah! Here is Hamilton!” Then, passing his Angers along certain lines of the face, Ought we to eat canned vegeta be added, "There was the poetry!” bles, that ie the commercial article?
