Bth. The Promoters, in placing the -foregoing facts before the people of this Colony, desire to point out the very great disadvantages that coloni3ts are sure to labor under by lending—or rather - giving—sunh"a*large sum of money as stated above ,lo foreign Banks, to be lent back to the people here afc very high.rates of interest, and on most arbitrary,conditions. .They therefore have no hesitation in sucorest;in'g the prudence and wisdom of the colonists 1 keeping within their own domain the absolute control of their own meneys ; ns by so doing they will most effectually" destroy the risk of future monetary disturbances which they have had bu more than one o-jcasion' 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 | o'.the.foreign Banksmost strongly take root |. 9th.. It has been determined by the, Pro--1 moters that the first issue of 200,000' Shares shall be conducted by Committees, to be appointed, severally,in the chief city in each Pro- ■ vince; and no Shares will begivenorreserved 1 fco . t] } e . .Promoters ; but each member of the ] Provisional Committee is willing to become a subscriber for the number of Shares standing opposite to his name. ' ' [The Provisional Committee have ■ already subscribed among •themselves for 25,475 Shares, which they are prepared to take if allotted to them.] lOth.ult is proposed at the issue of Shares above referred to (hat ss. per Share be paid on application ; that 10s. per share be paid on allotment; that a Call cf ss. per shave be made and payable two months, after allotment;, that a Second.Call of ss. ,per Share be made and,payable four months after allotment ;' and that a Third ,«'all of 5sV per Share be made and payable six months .'after allotment—making together 30s. paid up 'per Share.' '.No further Call to be made within 12' months of the Bank first commencing ousine'ss in Diuiedin ; after whiclv future" Calls will nat exceed's3. per Share, nor be'jmade at shorter intervals than three months between each Call. . ■ . . ■- • I , 11th. The Act,-of incorporation'for this Bank will be so framed as to limit the liability of, the. Shareholders to twice-the amount of their Share*, the same as the,other,Banks. .12th. As a thoroughly Colonial Institution, the Promoters have much pleasure in strongly recommending Tiie Colonial Baxk of New Zealand 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 .-s 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 ye,t been launched in the Southern Hemisphere under better auspices. Applications for shares will now be received by Mr. John Bremne'r, Naseby,'and a 1; the Temporary Offices of the Bank, High-street (late Club), where forms of application and full information can be obtained.
