ANECpoTF, nj, IdSpsSput teiuses
the following interesting anecdote in his
History of La Fayette in America:
at happened to ore of our acqualnt-
ance, to be in the Steamboat that plies
between New-York and New-Bruns-
wick, along with MIR. Adams when the
latter was President of the u. States,
The President sat, undistinguished at
the foot ofthe breakfast table, eating with
keen appetite the good things common
to all. AT the other end was an Eng
lish Colonel, contending with our friend,
as many European travellers do, that
"the Americans, in spite of their repub-
lean institutions, are essentially aristo-
cratic in their habits" "What person
do you suppose that to be, down next to
the Captain'" said neighbour to the
Colonel. 81 don't know" replied the
other, ''he is like the rest, and seems TO
be making pretty hearty meal" "But
| can tell YOU" continued the question
er, "Mat's The President Of he United
Siaies-go and talk to him after he has
done" The officer, who had landed on
ly FIVE days before at New York, look
ed confounded, rose, and went near to
the Presidents chair, with counte-
nance mingled with surprize and curios-
ity, which amused his first auditors; and
he felt still less inclined TO insist on A
merican aristocracy, after he learned
that the Captain himself was unaware
ofthc presence of Mr.. Adams"
How strikingly characteristics is this
anecdote oithe genuine republican sim
plicity Of the good and patriotic John
Quincy Adams.
