Bth. The promoters, in placing the foregoing facts before the people of this colony, desire to point out the very great (lis id vantages that colonist 3 are sure to labour under by lending or rather giving—such a large sum of money as stated above to foreign Banks, to be lent back to the per pie here at very high rates of interest, aud on most arbitrary conditions. They therefore have nofiesitatiou in suggesting the prudence and wisdom of the colonists keeping within their own domain the absolute control of their own moneys as by doing so they will most effectually destroy the risk of future monetary disturbances, which they have had on more than one occasion to deplore in the past, brought about solely by some crisis that has occurred in one or other of the Australian Colonies, where the real interests of the foreign Bank most strongly take root. 9th. It has been determined by the promoters that the first issue of 200,000 shares shall be conducted by committees, to be appointed severally in the chief city in each province, and no shares will be given or reserved to the promoters; but each member of the Provisional Committee is willing to become a subscriber for the number of shares standing opposite to his name.* 10th. It is proposed at the issue of shares above referred to that 5s per share be paid on application; that 10s per share be paid on allotment] that a call of 5s per share be made and payable two months after allotment ; that a second call of sspershare be made and payable four months after allotment; and that a third call of 5a per share be made and payable six months after allotment—making together 30s paid up per share. No further call to be- made within twelve months of the Bank first commencing business in Dunedin; afier which future calls will not exceed 5s per share, nor be made at shorter intervals than three months between each call. 11th. The Act of Incorporation for this Bank will be so framed as to limit the liability of tho shareholders to twice the amount of their shares, the same as the other Banks. , 12tb. As a thoroughly colonial institution the promoters have much pleasure in strongly recommending "Tub OoiiOHHii Bank of New ZeaiiAKD " to the support of all colonists having the real welfare of New Zealand at heart. Such an institution is much wanted at the present time, and as the development of the Colony proceeds its usefulness will also increase and be more and more appreciated, both as an investment for the savings of the people, and as a useful Bank. Judging from the influence and sound experience possessed by the promoting members of committee it is certain that no similar institution has ever yet been launched in the Southern Hemisphere under better auspices. A deputation of Provisional Directors will visit Auckland in a few days for the purpose of co-operating with a local Provisional Committee. Meantime forms of application for shares may be obtained, and applications may be lodged with the Onion Bank of Australia and Bank of Australasia. I FORM OF APPLICATION FOE SHARKS. Date 1874.
