Some years 0.111 a pastor of Willimonsport be
came very intimate with a wealthy member of
his congregation. So stningly was the latter
attached to the pastor that he exacted a
: tromise that be would preach his funeral
sermon. The pastor promised that no matte]
what the distance that sep tratcd them, or the
difficulties that might be placed between
tinsn, he,would when intormed of the death
of his old friend, drop all else and hasten to
time spot that was to he the resting place of his
mortal remains. The pastor afterwards inov
ed into this vicinity, and' a short time, ago
received the sad announcement that his friend
• was dead. Instead of keeping his promise,he
replledthat he was unable to be present, as
tie could not close up hie church, etc. The
macre' look place in due seasma, but the pas
tor was not there to perform the last sad rites
over time body of his departed friend. The
ceremonies, however, were performed by au

opened, it appeared that the old man bad been
faithful in death, as he was in Ills, and be

THE .FoUNDER of AN IMPORTANT INTER
EST.—This ;yeti: has witnessed imistrtant changes
In 1.01130 of the leading houses of the city and the
retirement of two of our oldest merchants. Upon
curb an occasion it is infinitely proper to refer to
the business career of the parties, that their expe
rience in life may be held dp tor the emulation of
thos'e embarking In business and for the encour
agement of all young men. On the 20th, Wm. S.
Young, Eq., who may justly be styled the pioneer
of the wholesale boot and shoe trade of this city,
refired from the firm of Young . Lentz.
Mr. Young was horn about three miles from
Quakertown, In Bucks county. In 1807, he
came to the little pla:te that bore the name of
Allentown, and after serving four years appren
ticeship under George Spinner, at the cabinet
making trade,entered the office of Solomon Gange•
were's lumber yard, where he served as ulerk for
seven years, at 8250 per annum. After the great
lire of 1848, he was induced to go Into partnership
with Reuben Guth and B. F. Trexler, in the pub
lic.,tion of the Patriot-, under the firm name of
Guth, Young & Trexler, Mr. Young taking the
business management of the c,oncern.
In the same year the Whigs nominated him far
Recoider and In the lower section of the county,
where he was well-known, he gained enough votfx
to-have carried the county under ordinary cirinm•
stances, polling neatly the whole vote of North
ampton towt,ship, which then comprised the ter
rhory now vulgarly known as Mingo; but Mr.
oung was known to i e n temperance man, and
as :he farmers of L)rin, Washington and Mittel.
berg were large distillers or apple J wk, they were
Induced to believe that, If such men were elected,
they would ent down their atipil trees and close
up their distilleries. Tii y did not know him PO
well then as they do now and they defeated him
for the prriAtion.
In addition to the printing estlibli•thment,which
they located en Hamilton street, Giith, Young it
Trexler opened a well stocked rook and stationery
store, and the skill of Mr. YMing us a business
loan re Is shown In the tact which made the con
cern a well-piying eslab'isliniont. Ile rern•tined
In this burble-s three yeas re. In the nie.intlMe
the firni or Loclunani ISZ. Leh was diseolved, Mr.
Loh purchasing his pa riser's interest. After
leaving the Patriot oflic, Mr. Young bought a half
Interest lu M r. Lei's hoot and shoe [store, asd un
der I lie firm of Young tt 1,11 the business increased
largely year by year In 1807, Mr. Leh sold
lite interest to Mr. Young and on the first of Fel , -
ruary, of the some year, John E. Lentz 'MIS taken
into partnership. (Idle seleel.loll Was a very happy
one, Mr. Lenox proving by his steady Lobito, en
ergy and gond business ideas, a valuable assist
ant to Mt. Young, and under the Orm of Young A:
Lentz the business made Still more rapid strales,
until It was found necesmry to move fl um th.
stand so long occupied. 603 Ham hurt street,to the
double building Nos. 002 and 601 Hamilton street,
which Mr. Young owned, the first door of which
had been specially titled up fur th it wholesale
warehouse and the upper slurries for their extol.
sive manufac ory. In June, 1800, the concern
was removed to the new quarters and the expert
emcee here has full) jostitiud the change of location.
'Shire then they have from tithe to time added new
and impr rued machinery, notice of which has
been made In therm columns.
While the goddess of fortune has smiled upon
the labors of Mr. Yoang, he was not always
blessed with the best of health, which was a great
drawback and would have discouraged many a
man of lesser energies. After feeling that the
accumulation of years warranted his retirement
from active pursuits, lie has given way to younger
in at, that they may have a chance of gaining a
competence to supply their wants in their declin
ing yearn. And in doing this be has shown a
spirit that le anything else than miserly.
Mr. Young's business life IS a lesson that is
worthy of the study of those who are now fightmg
their way through the world. He had been a mail
of liberal Ideas ;of unswerving principles, correct
In all his habits, and while laying up a good sup
ply of this world's requirements, he has sustaLed
a reputation for that fair honorable dealing which
oppresses no one. Ills life is au example of what
business Integrity, hard work and strict attention
to one's milling will do. Comma:icing here with
little or nothing, lie bee worked himself up to tht•
front rank of our business men, and It c in hardly
be successfully denied that Allentown owes to him
the establishment. (Ache boot and shoe tradh,which
ow gives employment to eo many and has grown
into one of our most important interests. Ile hue
seen Allentown rise from the 0 bee ..rity of a small
borough, and under the protection of a Tariff be•
come one of Hie most Important cities of the Key•
stone State, anti with the expansion oldie city it
must have been always pleasing to him to see the
interest of which he wits the father expand, into
suit, mighty proportions.
Under the new firm name of John E. Lenin tt,
Co., with young energetic and capable business
men, we may expect to see the old house grow
still faster and ever ready., as It has born In the
past, to meet all the demon& of the trade.
Besidee the cstabliAlimeut In which Mr. Young
Was concerned, the Linn of 11. Leh & Co. has built
up a very extensive establishment, giving employ
ment to It large number of hands and growing In
Its capacity midi It Is found that it will soon be
necessary to. Introduce steam power.

RETIREMENT OF AN OLD MERCRANT.
awn G. Reninger, who has fur a number of
years occupied a leading position In the mercantile
community of this city, re.ired from active busi
ness life by withdrawing from the firm of E. B.
Bhitner Co.,Wedoesday. Mr. Reninger is one ot
our oldest and mo-t successful merchants. He
was born near Boyertown, Berks county, and at
an early age commenced business In a country
store In Upper M ocungle, ai.d after a few years
removed to Allentown about 1813, where ho en
tered into partnership with Ephraim Grim, and
this firm continued for a period of sixteen yearn.
Their place of business was the site at present cc
supled by the Eagle Hotel. In 1843, the " big
tire" swept away their building and destroyed
nearly alb their stock. They resumed business In
the building now occupied as Weller'a liquor store,
and in the winter following removed to the store
at present occupied by E. 8. Shimer &Co. When
Mr. Grim retired from tho firm, E. 8. Kilmer was
taken Into p trtnership, the firm being known as
Reisinger & Bbliner. After several sears Mr.
Itening , r retire!, selling his Interest to E. 8.
Ethimer'e brothers, but in about a year Mr. Ren-
Inger returned to the firm again, which was re
',instructed under the name of E. S. 81timer
Co. Mr. Renlimer, In his retirement from netlvo
business pursuits, carries with him the beet wished
of bin Intiumeritole friends.

COUNTY THEASUREted ACCOUNT.—WO this
day give our readess the account of the County
Treasurer for 1871. It w 111 he seen that there was
no ground ut all for the talk about :rood. which
however has served its purpose In getting Mr. Ire.
dell the Job of printing the statement.. We con
gratulate him on his streets, though .we still are
of opluion that It was a most to Just proceeding to
cry oir. about " Fraud I" and so throw dirt at hon
est men, without any Justification. When he pub
the Statement we suppo,e he will apologise
to them. Common gratitude should Induce him
to do that much.—Dally News.
We expect such mean insinuations against us
from that source, but we did not think that the
News would with ono breath Uphold the Commie
stoners as honorable, holiest men and with the
next arcane them of - it base and dishonorable at
tempt at bribing an editor to keep silent up!) the
management of couuty affa Ire. If there( tithing
rotten, what need would there be for sue unman
suspicion that the Commissioners were guilty of
bribery. The mere insinuation of such a thing
proves conclusively that the News itself .does not
secretly believe that the county affairs have been
managed as they should be.
As to the truth of the insinuation we denounce
It as false. The Commissioners notified us,through
Mr. !Millet, on Monday week, before we had said
a word upon the 589,000, that they bad decided to
publish the county advertising in the LEIIR)II
REGISTER. Wu presume they did so, not out of
any personal feeling fur us, nor to bribe us, but to
justly place the accounts of the county before the
. eyes of the Republican taxpayers us well as those
of the Democracy." We can see nothlng,suepicl ,
ens in this. It ought to have been done long ogo.
It Is the custom, throughout the State, to Insert
the count); advertising Imparters of both political
parties and It is no more titan Justice that It should
be done here. We owe the Commissioners no mo
gratitude than we owe the Individual who Inserts
a dollar advertisement In our paper and pays for tt.
