The great want of a thoroughly Colonial Banking In.stitn.ti >n for the whole Colony of New Zealand having long been felt, it has been determined by the Provisional Committee to supply the same by placing belore the public the present-carefully considered scheme, with the full confidence that it witl meet with very general support. 2nd. As a first step it is proposed to offer to the people of this Colony one-half of the nominal capital, or 200,000 shares, in fafr proportions to each of the Provinces throughout New. Zealand,, on the basis of the respective populations of each Province, reserving the other half to be disposed of hetealter, as the rapid progress of, the colony may demand and shareholders may decide ; but in no instance will any of the remaining shares be offered for sale out of the Colony without having* been, first offered to the. Colonial holders, nor will any but a New Zealand Register be 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 ehall be appointed to guide the operations of the Bank; and also that a Board of , qualified Directors shall be elected from among the • ommittee to advi.e with the General Manager, arid generally watch the interests of tho whole Institution. 4 th. As soon as a sufficient number of shares have been applied for to warrant the commencement of business, i}^ Head Office will be opened in Dunedin, in suitable premises already secured under offer, and thereafter Branches will gradually be opened in the chief Centres of Settlement throughout the Colony. sth. It will be the chief aim of the Promoters of this Bank to aid and conserve alike the interests of -the whole community in this , Colony. The Mercantile, Trading, Pastoral, Agricultural, MtniDg, Artiz m, and Laboring classes will each have fair treatment and support from the Colon-ml Bank. To the Munng Interest special TjJ,tentio_f will be given with a desire to acquire^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 coinage. 6th. It is not intended by the promoters that this Bank shall purchase gold but merely
