Its operations will consist of Loans and Advances on Moi tgago upon real seem ity in Now Zealand, for which the system of Public Registration of Land established theie affords gi eat facility, with perfect safety. The Company will also be piepaved to inako A i I - vanccs on securities of a substantial character, including those to Municipal Bodies iipon their Bond'-. It is not proposed, that moie than £5 shall bo called un on eacJi Share (of which £2 will be sufficient for present purposes), but that to the extent of the lemaiuiug £20 per Share the Company shall exejeise its boirowiug poweis for piocuiing money in Great Britain upon Debentures for terms ot years at a lixed rate of interest. This money will also be lent in the same manner as the Paid-up Capital, and the lendeis will be protected both by the securities taken and by the subscribed but mioalled Capital, which will itself hp equal to tho eutne amount borrowed.
