Taus a London contemporary: The old saying that is an lil wied that blows nobody any good seems to have a farther exemplification in the case of the National Bank of China (Limited). We need not recapitulate its passsge amongst the stormy waters through which it had to struggle during the first few months of its existence, but we may point out that amidst the and harassing fluctuations of Eastern exchange, It finds itself free from the meshes which have surrounded Eastern banking during the carrent year. When It publishes its first balance sheet it will be in the comfortable position of not having to devote considerable sums to making good depreciations, and in this way it finds itself in que position amongst Eastern banking institutions. Its capital, too, has been sent to to the East at recent low rates.
