Beoretary to the Provisional Committes, JAMES GILSILLAN, Eaq.
I preponed to establish to Shanghai
a Limited Banking Company, with the above tillo, m the belief that there is not only room, bat actual ncisousity, for, the ad- ditional facilities which such an institution will afford to the large local, coasting, and foreign trade which centres in this port
The great extension of ele communi. estion both by sea unð xiver, and the cros- tion of telegraphic concoatings, since the "existing Local Bank was founded, have greatly added to the importance of Shang- bai, until it has become the great depôt ör distributing point for the trade of North- ern and Central China; but, while it seems, dearable that Shanghai should be the -head-quarters of the new Bank, and its direction on the spot where the principal interest are involved, & local Committan will be formed in Hongkong for the pro- motion of the undertaking there,
The success of other pablic companies in Shanghai and Hongkong, and the evidence of a large and of money seeking invent- ment in Chinn, encourage the belief that the proposed Capital for this Bank will be readily subsoribod; any indoential natira mercbante bave already come forward sa active promoters and suppurtara, of the undertaking, and the Commitles look for a very valuable constituency from Chinche
Nourees.
The legal copatitntion of the Bank is engaging the consideration of the Com- mitter, and reference kina been made to London and elsewhere for the best legal advice upon the select and it is under- stood that no Shares will be alloted, vor
· will operations be commenced until the ne- cogeary arrangements have been completed, when further information will be laid be fore intending Sturebolders. In the weari time, applications for ebores, oro invited, until the loth April, 1872, but minst be on the prescribed forme; wisich can be obtejn- ed from the Secretary.
