Tho great extension of steam communi- ention both by sea and river, and the crea- tion of telegraphio connections, since the existing Local Bank was founded. have greatly added to the importance of Shung. hai, until it has become the great depot or distributing point for the trade of North- ern and Central Obina; but, while it seems derable that Shanghai should be the bend-quarters of the new Bank, and its direction on the spot where the principal interest are involved, a lócal Committee will be formed in Hongkong for the pro- motion of the undertaking there..
The success of other public companios in' Shanghai and Hongkong, and the evidenco of a large sum of money, seeking invest- ment in Obing, encourage the belief that' the proposed Capital for this Bank will be ready aubsribed; any influential netive. merulanta bave already come forward as native promoters and supporters of the undertaking, and the Committee look for a very valuable constituency from Ching
BO'DrO24.
The legal constitution of the Bank is engaging the consideration of the Coni- witter, and reference bas boon made to London and elsewhere for the best legal advice upon the subject; rid it is under abood that no Sharon will be alloted; nor. will operations be commenced until the ne. cersary arrangementa hayo been completed, when further information will be laid be Fore intending Shureboldem.
