abur title, in the belief that there is not only room, but actual necessity, for the ad ditional facilities which auch un institution will afford to the large local, coasting, and foreign trade whiob aentres in this purt.

The great extension of steam communi. cation both by scụ and river, and the area- tion of telegraphic connections, since tha existing Local Baat was founded, have greatly added to the importance of Sting- hai, until it ne become the great depôt or distributing point for the trade of North. ern and Central China; but, while it scoms desirable that Shanghai should be the head-quarters of the new Bank, and ita direction on the spot where the principal interests are involved, a Ideal Committee will be formed in Hongkong for the pro motion of the undertaking there.

'The anoness of otfær public companion in Shanghai and Hongkong, and the evidence of a large sum of money sccking invest. ment in Obina, encourage the belief that. the proposed Capital for this Bank will be readily aabasribed; many influential zative merchanta have already come forward active promoters and supporters of the undertaking, knd the Committee look for a very valanble constitaoney from Chinese

SCUTOCH,

The legal constitution of the Bank is engaging the consideration of the Com mittee, und reference has been made to London and elsewhere for the best legal advice upon the subject; and it is under- stood that no Sönres will be alotad, nor will operations be commenced until the ac Jessary strangements have been completed, when further information will be laid be fore latending Shareholders.
