If you mean showing the timestamps next to the messages in the chat window
(like e.g. Pidgin), you can give this a shot; this basically modifies a
local copy of the default Classic theme to show timestamps next to the chat
messages:
- Download the attached patch to your home directory
- Run these commands (as user in terminal):

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/adium/message-styles/
cp -r /usr/share/adium/message-styles/Classic.AdiumMessageStyle
~/.local/share/adium/message-styles/ClassicWithTimestamps.AdiumMessageStyle
cd
~/.local/share/adium/message-styles/ClassicWithTimestamps.AdiumMessageStyle
patch -p1 < ~/add-timestamps.patch
