Death of a Prominent Merchant.
James Boorman, of this city, for many
years an active merchant of great influence
in the commercial world, died yesterday
morning,in the eighty-third year of his age.
For several years past he had been retired.
old age preventing the continuance of his
active labor. The old firm of Boorman Si
Johnson started in this city. before the war
of 1812. The partners were two young
Scotcbmen, and they began mercantile life
as agents for, one of the old Scotch houses
of Dundee. At one time the firm, changed
to Boorman, Johnson S Co., by the admis
sion of Adam Norrie, sold all the Virginia
tobacco brought to this market.
This firm also did something in the iron
business, and received large consignments
from Sweden: On'pne occasion, in 1835, we
believe, they received a consignment of
"iron pillars" from Stockholm. They were
put, on the market, but *only , to be laughed
at. Nobody wanted them, and so they Ai
mained unsold. -Unable to find any , better
use for them, the iron dealers had them.
placed in thefront wall of their building in
Greenwich, directly opposite Albany street,
where they still remain, and are pointed
out as the first iron pillars ever used in this
city for such purposes. Boorman, JOhnson
Co. were at one time not only the largest
tobacconists but also the largest ISfadeira
merchants, in the city.
Mr. Boorman has a history, but it
has ever been written; and cannot now be,
save by some old merchant, who, like him
self, -was intimately associated - with the
mercantile enterprises of this city. Probably
no merchant of the city was ever more ac
tive in all schemes of benevolence than Mr.
Boorman. It is a singular and interesting
fact that he has been President of every cor
poration, club, Sic., with which he was ever
connected, not excepting the Hudson, River
Railroad, of which he was one of the origi
nal projectors. There appears in a curious
list of subscribers to the 816,000,000 loan au
thorized by Congress in February,.-1313, the
name of Mr. Boorman for the sum of $10,00:2.
