Since the publication Of the number for No
yeurber. the demand for the Ladies' Companion |
has Leen unprecedented and beyond the most
sanguine antic;patons. At the commencement
Of the volume an additional number OF copies
were printed, which was considered at the hme
ADEQUATE to satisfy all the orders which might pe
received, and leave considerable numoe' on
hand for subsequent calls. The publisher II
more than gratfsd in stating that the whole eI
an edition of SIX Thousand, Five Hundred Cop
les, was completely exhausted before tho 'ssI'
inC of the third number of the volume; and,
consequently, he was compelled 10 re>prIrt

Of the T,nth Volume. :,

/ increase of new subscribers, he has dete m'ned
to commence the new volume for the ensuing
year, with THIRTEEN THOUSAND: hop
ing that he will thus be enabled TO supply all the
additional demands for the ladies Companion,
as well as those disappointed in commencing
with the tenth volume. The proprietor teets
grateful for that encouragement which haF been
so lavishtv bestowed upon his magazine, and at
