The Jackson County vigil
lance Con. nm illRe


Again visit Floyd county and carry
away two citizens. The New Alba
ny LEDGER of the 30th ultimo says
that county was visited few days
befure by a couple Of gentlemen
from Jackson county, supposed to
belong to the celebrated vigilants,
who carried away two citizens as
captives. The same paper thinks the
county clerk was cognizant of all the
facts and could have prevented the
capture being made in that county
had he been so disposed, but being
feed for his services he became
willing instrument in the transaction.
The raid was a.bold one. made in
open daylight, and entirely success
full, as they succeeded in carrying off
the captives without opposition. The
names Of these daring spirits are W.
w. Shields and James Reach, and
their prisoners are Miss Alice Stone
and Miss Lizzie Moore, two of the
complished daughters ofLa Fayette
township It'is-saidthese vigilants
intend toretain their. prisoners ddfS
ing life: This visit was certainly
more agreeable to all the parties
concerned than the one made on the
county prison two weeks since.'We
wish the captors and the captured
long life OF unalloyed happiness in
the bonds they have assumed.

Anecdete of John Quincy Adams.

A correspondent of the New York Sun sent
to that paper The following amusing auecdote
of ex-President John Quincy Adams, which If
true, does not derosate from the dignity of the
good gentleman; and, ifnot true, will serve at
least Tor good story:
John Quincy Adams was in the habit of
breasting the pillows when he was President.
Instead OF going to fashionable resort he
might be noticed very carly in the morning
swimming in the Potomac among "schooP
of boys and youth who took their morning
bath earlier than was their wont, that they
might swim with the President of the United
States. 1t was with them as it was with John
Quincy's ancestor, 'sink or swim, survive or
perish" they were bound to be aioat at that
particular time. Adams generally selected
place near the Long bridge. The toys annoy
ed the long boatman very much, seizlng the
steering oar, ETC., as the latter would be row.
ing and polling their wood and coal boats up
the river, and they frequently had to dodge
billets OF wood, which the vexed river men
would hurl at them. Adams bald paie mean
time, would be bobbng up and down IN close

companying admonition uU the old baldhead
to "get away rom thereP
Mr.. Adams had soft of weakness for ri,e
water On another occasion, in company
with his valet Ia Swiss who bad been with

Potomac in a small skif to Mason's Island;
and when about in the middle of the stream
their craft began to leak rapidly. Both were
good swimmers, and they stripped Oft nearly
all their garmeots, and tied them in bund LES
to be ready for the threatened emergency. 1t
soon came. The skiff went under, and its
late occupants, each with his bundle, spaniel
like, between his teeth, swan with The force
OF Leander toward the nearest shore. But
the swftness of the current compelled them
to drop their packages, and they reached the
muddy shore of the island with but a shirt
and pair of drawers between them. Adams
stripped his remaining garment to add TO the
wardrobe Of his valet, who, thus coolly ac-
coutred for summers day, approached the
nearest habitation, borrowed clothing for bim-
SELF, and proceeded round by distant bridge
to the city. Having procured a suitable at
tire for the President and himself, be took a
carriage and drove back 10 where the future
"old man eloquent" had been stark naked Tor
some three hours in Potomac mud and wat~r.
At that time the newspapers could not well
report whether all was quiet, or notice this
ripple on The Potomac, and men then had not
such prurlency for notorety, even when the
| joke was favorable. This event was, Of course,
unheralded.
| The first thing President Adams did on his
return to Washington was to purchase a valu'
| able gold watch for his valet, to supply the
| place of one which that faithful attendant
