Letterhead identifies the business as "The Uptown Store of Alexander Young's Y.P.M."
The 1860 directory lists a "John Young, Liquors" at Callowhill & N 13th, but it's not certain that this is the same person. John H Young was son of Wilson Young and grandson of Alexander. He died in the late 1880's. Business name timeline:
