is proposed to establish in Shanghai Import Boost distans, true the abira title, in the belief that there is not only room, but actual zepessity, for the ed- ditional facilities whieh andh af institution: will afford to the large local, casting, and foreign trade which centres in this port.
The great extension of steam couizzammā. cation: both by sea and river, and the great tion of telegraphio oonnections, since the existing Local Bank was founded, have grently added to the importance of Shang- buy until it bus become the great' depåt or distribaking point for ile trade ö? Northvi er and Central Chian; but, while it seeme desirable that Shanghai should be the head-quartare of the now Bank;, and its direction on the spot where the principal interests are involved, a loosi Cominitlen will be formed in Hongkong for the pro- motion of the undertaking there;
The succese of other public companios in Shinsghai and Hongkong, and the evidence of a large sum of money seeking invest ment in Ohio, encourage the belief that the proposed Capital for this Bank will he readily entscribed; many influential nutivé. mergbenta kave already come forward' is active promoters snd espporters of the undertaking, and the Committee look for a very valuable constituency from China
Bootces.'
The logul constitution of the Bank is engaging the consideration of the Com- wittee, and reference had been made to London and elicwhere for the best legal adrice upon the subject; and it is under. eted that no Shares will be alloted; nor will operations be commenced until the ne Dessary arrangements have boom completed, when further information will be laid be fore intending Shareholdery. In the mos time, applications for abarca are invited, until the 15th April, 1873, but must be on the prescribed fore, which cua be obtain ed from the Secretary.
