“The California Youths’ Companion.”
The following article from the Youths?
Companion, of last week, fully explains
itself :
The proprietorship of the undersigned
in the Youru’s Companion, closes with
the present number. Hereafter, Messrs.
Dewey & Co., of the Ahning and Scientific Press, will assume its publication.
The principal object we have had in view
in making this arrangement, has been to
promote the interests, and give additional
value to the little paper we have estahlished and conducted, thus far, for the
amusement, instruction, and benefit of the
youth of Ualifornia.
The usual difficulties a new publication
has to contend with in starting, and what
is more important—in continuing—have
been fully experienced by the projector
of this enterprise, yet the kind words and
cheerful interest of many true friends, has
made the sacrifice a pleasant one. The
gentlemen into whose hands the paper
has now passed, have more extended
means and facilities for making it what it
should be, than we could command, hence
the change. While our proprietorship
ceases, our interest and efforts in hehalf
of the paper will still continue. At the
request of the new proprietors, we shall
continue, for the present, to look after the
uotside interests of the CompaNIoN, and
on the issue of the next number shall
yisit, in succession, the Schools throughout the city, for the purpose of securing
for ita more extended circulation among
the youth of San Francisco, and eventually throughout the State. The subseriptions of all who have subscribed by the
quarter, expire with the present number,
and we trust that they will he prepared for
renewal when we reach them.
The well-knowu position which the
new proprietors hold in the city and State,
as the publishers of a journal devoted
more especially to the purpose of diffusing
useful and iustructive information, is a
guarantee quite sufficient to warrant the
assumption that the readers of the
Yourus’ Companton, will lose nothing
by the contemplated change; but on the
other hand, will finda marked increase
in the value and interest which will hereafter attach to its columns,
With thanks to all, but more especially
to the Teachers in the department, who
have afforded us every facility and assistance for the circulation of our paper, we submit it to other and abler
hands, Frank SMiru.
