We had writer the above when intelli-
gence was received from the eastward, that
JOHN ADAMS, another father Of the Re-
public, the llustrous ccadutor Of Jefferson
in many patriotic struggle, had like him
descended to the tomb, and like him also,
died on the hiteth anniversary of Indepen-
dence. Thus has the National Jubilee the
semi-centennial anniversary, been consecra-
ted by the last breath of the two men who
took the most active part in the signal event
which has given % that day all its value in
the estimation of mankind. A more signal
and impressive combination Of circumstance
cs is not to be found in the annals Of any ma
ton, than this; and it requires no stretch of
crcdulity to regard it as special dispcnsa-
tion of Providence, testitying his approba-
tion of the labors Of the deceased, and of the
couse they had cspoused, bv the privilege
granted to them of terminating their meri-
torious career on that day, which of all 9th
ers, would bring with it, TO them, the noblcst
and happiest recollections.


JOHN ADAMS IS NO MORE.


This hoary headed sage OF the revolution
was serene and tranquil to the last hour of
his eventfu life. On the morning of the Ju-
bilee of independence, his declining faculties
were reused by the rejoiciags in the metro
polls. He inquired the cause of the salutcs,
and was told it was tie fourth ofJuly. He
answered, is great and glorious day.


These were the last words that fell from his
lips. Thus his last thoughts and his last


words we're like those OF his whole life.
thoughts and words which eyinced soul


replete with love Of country and interest in


her welfare. Satem Register.


From tie Boston Gusette


JOHN ADAMS is no more. He departed


this life on Tuesday afternoon. The angel


OF death seems to have been walking with
] him for some months, but was not permit


ted by Omnipotcnce to call him away, until
the Jubilee at American Liberty had fully
come, and not then, until his soul had been
chcered with the loud acclamasions of joy.


Gus people for the blessings of the day. The


trumpet had sounded through the land-the


morning honors had been paid-the noon
, tide was past, and with the descending sun
. the good old patriarch departed on his Jour
ney to enjoy the everlasting rest prepared
for those who use their talents to the accept
ance Of their Maker.
