ia proposed to establish in Shangbai Lol Banking Company, with the above title, in the belief that there is not only room, but actual necessity, for the ad- ditional facilities which such au inulītutšou. will afford to the largo local, cometing, and foreign trade which centres in this port
The great extension of steam commcni- cation both by sea and river, and the aren tion of telegraphic connectione, since Abe cxiating Local Bank was founded, have greatly added to the importance of Suang, hal, until it has become the great depot or distributing point for the trade of North ern and Central Ovina ; but, while it seems desirable that Shanghai abould be the head-quarters of the new Bank, and its direction on the spot where the prinsipal
interests are involved, a local Committee. will be formed in Hongkong for the pro- motion of the undertaking there.
The success of other public companies in Shanghai and Hongkong, and the evidence of a large sum of money seeking invest. ment in China, ancourage the belief that the proposed Capital for this Bank will bo readily enbeoribed; many influential native inerchants have already come forward as activs promoters and supporters of the undertaking, and the Committee look for a very valuable comtituency from Chinesa
sources,
The legal constitution of the Bank i engaging the consideration of the Com- mittee, and reference, has been made, to Landon, and elsewhere for the best legal advice upon the subjcol; and it is under- stood that no Sbaron will be alloted, nor will operations be commenced rotil the nec Dessary. nrrangementa Luve been completed, when further information will be laid be- fore intending Shareholders. In the mean time, applications for shares are invited; notil the 15th April, 1872, but must be on the prescribed forma, which can be obtain ed from the Secretary,
