RPO3PECTUS OF COLONIAL BANK— continued, Ie prepared to make advances npon it until realised, in the same manner that it will be ready to do upon wool, grain, or oth r produce. :th. The amount of New Zealand Money in the hands of the three Banks irom Australia tracing in the Colcny on the 31st December last, as shown by their several returns furnished to the Government, appear thus, without giving odd numbers : — Deposits. Circulation. Total. Union Bunk of Australia J>e7o,ooo £123,425 £993,435 Bank of New South! Wnlea 560,000 104,819 664,839 Bank of Australasia ... 193,000 38,962 231,962 Showing a total oi ... £1,890,236 or nearly two millions of money belonging to Oolrnists entrusted to Boards of Directors in Melbourne or Sydney to control or manipulate as it may please their tastes; or as it may t c convenient for the g-od of commerce in Victoiia cr New South Wales; or for the bene flcial regu'ation of their exchange operations In those Colonies. Bth The Promoters, iv placing the for.going facts before the people of this Colony, desire to point out tho very great disadvantages that Colonists are sure to labor under lendi g— or rather giving— such a large sum of money as slated above to foreign Banks, to be lent back to the people here at very high rates of interest, and on most arbitrary c nditions. They there-ore hive no hesitation in suggesting the prudence »nd wisdom of the Colonists keeping within their own domain the absolute control of their own monies; as by so doin? they will most effectually destroy the risk of luture 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 i shall be conducted by Committees to be appointed severally in ihe chief City in each Province; and no Shares will be given or reserved to the Promoter?; but each member of the Provisional Committee is willing to become a subscriber for the number of Shares standing opposite bis name.* 10th. It is proposed at the issue of Shares above reierred to, that 5s rer share be paid on Application ; that 10s per share be paid on Allotment; that a Call of Ss per share be made and payable two months alter Allotment; that a Second Call of 5s per share be made and payable four months after Allotment ; and that a Third Call of ss. per i-hare be made and payable six months after Allotment—making together 30a. paid-up per Share. No further Call to be made within twelve months of the Bank first commencing nusiness in Dunedin ; after which, future Calls will not exceed ss. per Share, nor be m*de at Bhorter 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 the Shareholders to twice the amount of their shires, the same as the other Banks. 12th. As a thoroughly Colonial Institution, the promoters have much pleasure in stronglyrecommending "The Colonial Bank 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 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 irom 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. About 100 000 shares have been already applied for and the greatest success has attended the Deputation appointed to visit the Provinces, who have visited Canterbury and Wellington. 1571 Medical. Nervousness, Debility, Losi of Power, Spermatorrhaa, Indiscretions of Eatiy Youth, Syphilitic Diseases In all cases arising f.om errors and the yielding to the passions, no time should be lost to at once arrest the progress oi disease. D R. L. L. S MITH HAS devoted himself for twenty years in the colony to the practice; of this branch of his profession, while previously, in England, he was the pupil of and practised with the celebrated DrRT Cuivervell, the only medical practitioner who ever exclusively adopted thiß as the sole branch of his profession. Dr L L Smith hereby informs the public that HE IS THE ONLY LEGALLY QUALIFIED MEDICAL MAN IN THIS SPECIALITY OF HIS profession; that others advertising are un 1 qualified, and that, therefore, in pretending to he qualified are obtaining money under faUe pretences. I Dr L L Smith also warns the publio ' against the quackeries advertised. If the taker of any of these advertised nostrums escape with his life, or his system be not thoroughly and irreparably undermined by them he may look upon himself as the most fortunate mortal. Dr L L Smith has been applied tp by so many unfortunate broken down young-old-men, utterly crushed in spirit, ruined in body and filched in pocket, tbat he deems it a duty to publish this to the world. Those men and women who have been the victims of unprincipled charlatans frequently seek that recovery which is often beyond Dr Smith's control. When will the public understand that it is their interest to consult a duly qualified medical man, who has made this his sole study, rather than apply to a number of ignorant imposters, who merely harp and prey upon their pockets and health. Dr L L Smith has always stated that to warn the public of these quicksands is his chief reason for advertising. In all cases of nervous debility, lowness ol spirit, loss of power, pimples on the forehead, lassitude, inaptitude for business, impotency, drainage from the system, and the various effects of errors of youth and bloodpoisoning from diseases previously concracted, Dr L L ■ Smith invites sufferers to consult him, as he has no hesitation in stating that no medical man, either here or in England, has had the opportunities of practice and extraordinary experience which he has had. Therefore those who really desire to be treated by one who is at the head of his profession in this branch of medical practice Bhould lose no time in Becking his advice. Nor should anyone marry without first consulting him. The New Consulting Rooms are at 182 COLLINS STREET EAST, MELBOURNE, Opposite the Melbourne Club. (Late residence of the Governor). Private eutrance is in Stephen-street south CONSULTATION PEE (by Letter) ... £i Medicines forwarded to all colonies, so packed as to avoid observation. Books published by the Dr. can be had on application to him. 1984
