The great extension of steam comimunis ention both a ses and tirer, and the ores tion of telegraphis connections, since the existing Load Bank was founded, have greatly added to the importance of Shang ha, uri.it has become the great depôt or distributing point for the trade of North- ern and Central China; but, while it seems desirable that Bonghui should be the beadquarters of the new Bank, and its direction on the spot where the principal interesta are involved, a local Committee will be formed in Hongkong for the pro- motion of the undertaking thero.
The auorees of cther public companice in Slunghai and Hongkong, and the aridstine" of a large sum of tovary seeking invest went in China., oncourage the belief that the proposed Capital for this Bank will be readily subscribed; many influential cativo werebants have already come forward au motive promoters and supportera of the undertaking, mud the Committoa look for a vory valuable constituency from Chincer
LONTCLS.
The legal constitution of the Bank is engaging the aqushioration of the Com mitter, and reference has been made to London and elsewhere for the best legal udvise upon the enhjeet; and it is under- styed that operation will not be com marco Bal the necessary arrangemente have been completed, when further in- formation will be laid before intending Shareholders.
