TT is proposed to establish in Shanghai
& Limited Banking Company, with the. abora title, in, the belief that there is not only room, bat antaal nevassity, for the ad ditional facilities which such an institution willaford to the large local, dcasting, and forsign trade which centros in this port
The great extension of steam osmmuni- cation both by sea sod river, and the eres- tion of telegraphin eonrections, since the existing Lal Bank was founded, have greatly added to the importanna of Shang- hai, until it has become the great depôt or". distributing point for the trade of North- ern and Central China; but, while it seems desirable that Bhatghal should be tho head-quarter of the new Bank, and its direction on the spot where the principal interests are involved, a local Committee, will be formed in Hongkong for the pro- motion of the undertaining there, t
The success of other public companies in Shanghai and Hongkong, and the erlenco of a large sum of money seaking invest- ment in Obina, encourage the belief that the proposed Capital for this Bank will bo readily subscribed; many influential native merchants Lave already come forward se motive promoteve and supporters of the
undertaking, and the Cominitice look for a very valuable constituency from Chinese
The legal constitution of the Bank in engaging the consideration of the Com mittee, and reference bes been made to London and elsewhere for the best legal advice apon the pubject; and it is under- stood that no Sbaren vill be alloted, noz will operations be commenced until the ne cessary arrangémants have been completed, when further information will be laid be fore intending Shareholders. In the mean tine, applications for shares are invited, until the 15th April, 1872, but must be on the prescribed forms, which can be obtain.. ed from the Secretary.
