IN ADVANCE; $2,50 Ir NOT PAID IN-ADVANCE The present Mayor of Philadelphia, who is also the Nestor of the editorial fraternity in Clay school,ranking in point of culture, of influence and accomplish ments, with such gentlemen as William Cnilen Bryant,of the New York Eveni,v Pod, Cul James Watson Webb, of the Courier and Enquirer, and that phalanx of solid, yet brilliant talent that has done so much for the journalism of the country. 'Morton McMichael was a native of the old Northern Liberties. lie said one evening,iu addrest•ing a political meeting in 1830, at the corner of Coates and New Market streets. " Boys, I want you to understand that I a right to be here. I was born within a hundred yards of this very spot, and I have a right to be here. I am as good a .Snapper' as any one present." He alluded to the fact that as a youngster he had been a mem ber of the Ncrthe-n Liberty Hose Com pany, whose house is within a stone's throw, and to whom from time immemo rial was ascribed to the sobriquet of "Snappers." We use this illustration literally.fcr on the occasion of the speech the meeting was assailed with stones just as the Mayor was beginning his address; but the happy allusion of the Mayor turned the scale against them, and they retired in a sad disccmfiture. BEM The parents of the subject of our sketch were natives of Ireland. They kept a dry good store in second street above Coates,for many years. They were plr.irt unassuming people, whose only care was to increase their store, and keep at home a growing family of two sons and several claughterF. The old gentleman was a strict member of the Baptist denominc tion,and passed away esteemed by every one who knew him. Morton 31.cMiehacl is solely the architect of his own fortunes; and though enjoying the pleasures of a moderate, yet sufficient competency, and entire immunity for the necessity for ex ertion,he was for years together a labori ous, and often ill-requited toiler over the midnight oil. He illustrates in his personal position the value of a fixed purpose in life, and the energy that leads to its accomplishment. Many persons suppose hint to have enjoyed the highest advantages of the schools,but he did not. He entered the law office of David Paul Brown, Esq., and by hard reading and incessant study, gradually added ae eYnplishrnent after accomplishment to his store. He married, early, a lady of great beauty, one of twins, so nearly the counterpart of the other that the differ ence between them was scarcely discern ible. The prediction , as to the unalloyed happiness that the then young man would enjoy thlout.;ll life ; have been more than verified. 12 lo I'. M 3 011 P.M The young remile then resillod Sixth, just above Wocpl strut . . Mr. ...ler+liehael was in polities at this time, a Democrat; and very soon was found to possess natucai as well as acquired ad vantages as an off-imin] sneaker. While many of his contemporar:cs were spend ing their leisure time in festivity,Morton McMichael was storing his mind with knowledee. 'His first public pus it ion \ray that of school director,and afterwartis represented the District of Spring Gar den in the Board of School Controllers. At that time—a g)od old time forever gone—the alderman of the city were ap pointed by the Governor of the State,and were selected for their competency and. personal worth. For these considerations Governor Wolf appointed him Alderman of Spring Ga-2den,and the Commissioners of Spring Garden made hint their com mitting ma: 6 istrate. lle :-tebse.cluently left the Democratic party and joined the tanks of the rising Whig party, together with thousands of influential citizens of corres ponding stamp and patriotism. Th e crisis of his liforwas now passing. All the way along his path through he had steadily been making friends. lie es poused the cause of the Whig party,lived to Fee it triumph over all adversmies,aud in turn, over its ruins enacted the role of Marius over forsaken Carthage. All this time he was closely engaged in the pursuit of literary employment,and his was one of the pens that wrote the Lct/yer, then battling fur reputation and success, into a subsequent prosperity.— For five years he was associated in busi ness as a publisher and editor, with Mr. Louis A. Godey,uf Co(ley's Lady's Book. Like that of Nissus and Euryalus, of Saul and Jonathan, was the friendship of these two young men, a friendship ex isting, cemented by years of association, to the present day. Godey and Me- I Michael became, during that period of business connection, inseparal)le compau intrett'. Norton Mcalichael. [WHOLE i umßgß 1,932 ions, and at the festive board to this day, where one is, the other is not far distant. When the struggle for preponderance between the Whig and Democratic par ties was at its height, Mr. McMichael was importuned to stump New Jersey for the party to which he had given allegi ance. He did so, and with such success that the nomination of Sheriff was given to him. He soon proved, that sn far as he was concerned, the nomination was to an election, and a short time afterwards, the citizen selected by Gov Wolf for his personal worth, as a simple police jibtiee, in the District of Spring Garden, was enjoying the emoluments of High Sheriff of the coan',y of Philadel phia. His term, however, was a troublons one. The Native American riots of 1544 occurred during its continuance, and im parted to the duties of the office a tint of military practice and usage, such as no Sheriff of Philadelphia has since been called upon to encounter. By his course, during these riots, he increased the at tachment of his friends, while he added also to the malevolence of his enemies.— The riot was in itself a blot upon the fair fame of Philadelphia, but now its mem ory exists only in the recollecsion of a generation passing away, and in the his tory of the Quaker city. The Native Americans enjoyed thrift after this un fortunate event,and for a time controlled the government of the city. They had a majority in Councils sufficient to rea der them strongly dominant. Iu the meantime Mr. McMichael had retired from the office of Sheriff,and had purchased an intere,,t in the old North American and Unitcd States Gazette.— That journal has a long history of its own that, at some future time, we may possibly give. It is now the exclusive property of the Mayor,and cost him,after purchasing the interests of his partners, the sum of $lOO,OOO. The Whig party had died, the Native American party traversed the country as a meteor traver ses the dome of heaven, and the North American at last arrayed itself against the corruptions that it had inaugurated. The Native party died a natural death, and Mr. McMichael gave the force of his influence to the incubation of the Repub lican party. He was among the accouch crs at its birth, among its nurses during infancy. Should it be buried, as some think it will, he will be among its pall bearers. He was nominated to the office of Mayor of Philadelphia during his absence from the city, by the influence of the Union League, but returned in time to take actir'o part in the campaign. His election NV:l' , a f:rogone, conclusion, and of this tact nano, were more well assured from the beinning. than his opponent, Daniel M. Es(f. Inaugurated into u flire. a: the ,f* the Hon.

'nt tit MEE At a " feast of reason," following a public banquet, Morton McMichael is a king. Minerva, springing from the brain of Jupiter, was not more beautiful than the sparkling effusions that come from Mr. McMichael's lips when the cloth is drawn, and Burgundy or Verze nay follows sni c. Witlings ttud new comers have, under such circumstances, sought to break a lance with him only to retire in disemnfLure to ask the question "Who is he ?" When they learn his identity they hid their diminished heads. ; The Mayor is now about 65 years of age, I with a constitution that ought to carry him to S 5. lie is below the medium stature, full set and very robust looking. In manners he is exceedingly cordial—a worthy representative of gentlemen of the old school.—Pldl'a AS'uturday
