TT is proposed to establish in Shanghai above title, in the belief that there is not only roous, but unfual nepossity, for the ad- dition facilities which such an institution will afford to the Irge Ipoil, coasting, and foreign trade which centres in this part.
The great extension of stem omni- antion both by sey and river, and the crea tion of telegraphic connections, since the erating Local Bark was founded, have greatly added to the importance of Shang bai, until it has become the great depot or distributing point. for tlie trade of North. ern and Central China; but, woïle it seems desurable that Shazzbui should bỏ the head-quarters of the new Bagh, and its direction, or the spot where the principal intereate 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 in of money seeking invest- ment in China, qncourge the_bolief that the proposed Gapital for this Bank will be readily subscribed; any influential native merchants have already come. Forward as active promoters and apporters of the undertaking, and tus Commities look for a very valuable constituency from Chinese
