Since the publication Of the number for Noveni-

| tlsfy all the orders which might be received, and
! leave considerable number On hand tor subse-
quent calls The publisher is more than gratifed
IN stating that the whole of an edition OF SIX thou
sand, tlVe hundred copies, was completely exhaus-
ted before the issuing of the third number ol ihe
volume; and, consequently, he was compelled 10
reprint second edition OF two thousand copies,
making the Circulation of the Ladies CompanIon
eight thousand five hundred, at the termination Of
the tenth volume. In consequence of this great
and unparalleled increase OF new subscribers, he
has determined to commence tie new volume fer
the ensuing year with thirteen thousand: hOlm-
that he will thus be enabled to supply all the de-
mands for the Ladies Companion, as well as tl.ose
disappointed in commencing with the tenth vo.-
ume. The proprietor feeis- grateful toT that en-
couragement which has beenso lavshly bestowed
