cultlvatIna Safe Habits.

There is much in mental habits in
relation to industrial safety. Accord
ing TO Safety, publication of the New
York Central railroad, "self-control is
one of the big things in life. Many
times railroad Iaen are injured
through taking unnecessary chances
that are the results of sudden i'm.
pulses. 1t is com mon, for instance,
for a trainman switching cars, upon
observing a coupler not properly lined
up just as cars are about to come to-
gether, to impulsively step in and
shove the coupler over without first
stopping the cars. Often these things,
at first done impulsively. are tried
again and again, until an unsafe habit
is formed The necessity of cultivat-
ing coolheadedness and self-control, as
a safety factor, is indisputable."

He Got the Numher.

An amusing incident took place the
other day in a large railroad goods
yard A new man was sent to unload
wagon and to check the list of goods.
He did the work, but forgot to fill in
the number of the wagon in its place
on the form.
On this being pointed out to him
he departed, and returned after an alb
sence of half an hour, and banged
down the castiron number, wrenched
from the side of the wagon, remark
ing:
"Shure the next tonne yez want
the number of a wagon, ye can go for

explanation or apology. The disa-
vowal required of me by Col. Burr
in a general and indefinite form was
out of my power If it had really been
proper for me to submit to be ques-
toned, but | was sincerely of the
opinion that this could not be, and
in this opinion l was confirmed by
very moderate and judicious friend
whom | consulted. Besides that, Col.
Burr appeared to me to assume, in
the first instance, a tone unneces-
sarily premptory and menacing.
and, in the second, positively often

be practicable to leave door open to
acomodation This, | think, will
be inferred from the written COM
munication made by me and by my
directions, and would be confirmed
by the conversation between Mr.. Van
Ness and myself which arose out of
the subject. l am not sure whether,
under all the circumstances, did
not go further in the attempt to ac-
commodate than a punctilious deli
cacy will justify. If so. hope the
motives 1 have stated will excuse me.
1t is not my design by what | have
said to affix any odium on the conduct
of Col. Burr in this case. He doubt
less has heard of animadversions of
mine which bore very hard upon him,
and it is probable that,as usual, they
we're accompanied with some false
hoods. He may have supposed him

he has done. l hope the ground of
his preceding is such as ought to be

at the same time that the world will
do me the justice to believe that l

possible in some particulars I may
have been influenced by miscon-
structions or transformation. II is
also my ardent wish that may have
been more mistaken than I think I
have been,an that he,by his future
conduct. may show himself worthy
of all confidence and esteem and
prove an ornament and a blessing to
the country as well because II is pos
sible I may have injured Col. Burr,
however convinced myself that my
opinion and declarations may have
been well founded.
As for my general principles and
temper in relation to similar affairs,
I have resolved, IL our interview is
conducted in the usual manner, and
II pleases God to give me the oppor-
tunity. to reserve and throw away my
first fire, and I have thoughts even
of reserving my second fire,and thus
giving a double opportunity to Col.
Burr to pause and reflect. 1t is not,
however, my intention to enter into
any explanation on the ground. Apol-
ogy. from principle, hope, rather
than rride,is out ri the question. To
those who, with me abhorring tho
practice of duelling, may think tina.
