The great want of a thoroughly Colonial Banking Institution for the whole Colony of New Zealand having been long felt, it has been determined by the Provisional Committee to supply the same by placing before the public the present carefully considered scheme, with the full confidence that it will meet with very general support. 2nd. As a first step, it is proposed to offer to the people of this Colony ono half of tho nominal capital or 200,000 shares, in failproportions to each of the Provinces throughout New Zealand, on tho basis of the respective populations of each Province, reserving the othor half to be disposed of hereafter, as the rapid progress of the Colony may demand and shareholders" may decide ; but in uo instance will any of the remaining shares ale out of the Colony without first offered to tho Colonial ill any but a New Zealand em-rally watch tin nit number of 1 for to warrant ess, the Head adiu, in suitable ider offer, .-mil ually bo opened nent throuffliuut holders, nor will any but a New Zealand Register bo kept. 3rd. It is Intended that the Head Office of the Bank shall be in Dunedin, and that a General Manager of high professional standing ahull be appointed to guide the operations of the Bank; and also that a Board of qualified Directors shall be elected from among the Couniiitt'.'e to advise with the General Manager, and generally watch the interests of the whole Tn.--tituti.-m. 4th. As soon as a sufficient number of Shares shall have been applied for to warrant the commencement of business, the Head Oflice will be opened in Duuediu, in suitable Preini.-es already secured under offer, ami thereafter Brandies will gi-.duallybu opened in tho Chief Centres of Settlement throughout the Colony. . sth. It will bo the chief aim of the I roniotera of tlds Bank to aid ami conserve alike the interests of the whole community in this Colony. The Mercantile, Trailing, Pastoral, Agricultural, Mining', Artiza.ii, and Laboring Classes will each have fair treatment and support from the Colonial Bunk. To the Mining Interest, special attention will be given, with a desire to iiciniro for the Miners the Mint value of their Gold, whether in large or small quantities, and until such value can be ascertained, a liberal advance will be made upon any gold deposited for the purpose of coin'"li'tli. 'ft is'not intended by tho Promoters that this Bank shall purchase Gold, hut merely be prepared to make advances upon it until realised, in the same manner that it i will be ready to do"upon wool, groin, or other produce.
