tHOW JOHN ADAMS LEFT THE
PRESEDENCK

Mr.. James Parton writes in the Atlantic
Monthly as follows:
Mr.. Adams last day arrived. This obi
ous Judiciary law has been passed three
weeks before; but, owirgt the delay CT The
Sanate to act upon the nominations, the
jndpes were still uncommissioned. The gen.
tlemeu's party had not the decepcy to leave
so much IS one Of these valuable aie-2p'
noiDtRents to the incoming Administration;
nor any Other vacancy whatever, OF which
sidinus reached The seat of Government in
time. Nominations were sent to the Senate
as late as 9 O'Clock in the evening OF the 80
of March: and Judge Marshall, the acting
Secretary of State, waS in his othce TIL MD
nipht. still signing commissions for the men
through whom another administration vas
20 act, But the Secretary and his busy
clerks. precisely upon the stroke of II, were
startled by an apparitiOD. II was the bodily
presence of Mr. Levi Lincoln, of Massachu-
sstts. whom The President elect had chosen
for tie Office of Attorney General A con-
vprsaticn ensEed between these two gen le-
Enen, which has been recently reported for
us By Mr.. JcGersOn's great-grand- father:
Lincoln-I have been ordered by Mr..
Jefferson to take possession OF this othc7 and
its pSpers. a,
Etarshall-Why, Mr.. Jef3TsoI has not
yet qualified. >.
Liucoln-Mr. Jefrson considers himsel.
in the light of an executor, bound 10 take
charge Of the papers Of the Government
until he is duly qualified.
Marshall (taking out his watch}-But 1t
is not yet y o'clock.
Lincoln Ltaking awatch from bis pocket
and showing it)-This is the Presidents
watch, and rules the hour.
Judge Marshall felt that Mr.. Lincoln was
master of the situation; and, casting rue
ful look upon the unsigned commissions
spread upon the table, he left his midnight
visitor in possession. Relating the Gene in
after years, when tie Federalists had recov-
cred portion Of their good humor, he used
to say, laughing, that lie had been allowed
TO pick up nothing but lis bat.
While these events we're transpiring Mr..
Adams was preparing fo- that precipitant
flight from tie Capital, which gave the la:l
humiliation to bis party. He had not the
courtesy to stay in Washington for a few
hours, aud give the eclst Of his presence to
the Inauguration Of his successor. Tradi
ton reports that he ordered Lis carriage to
be at tie door OF tie White House at mid
sigit; and we know that before the dawn
OF the 4th of March he had left Washiy stOn
forever.
