The great want of a thoroughly Colonial Banking Institution for the whole Colony of New Zealand having been long felt r 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 purposed to offer to the people of this Colony one half of -the nominal capital, or 200,000 shares, in fair 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 hereafter, as the rapid progress, of the colony may demand and sharholders 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 shall' be appointed to guide the operations of the Bank ;i and also that a Board of qualified Directors '.shall be elected from -among the Committee to, advise with tho General Manager, and generally watch the interests of the whole Institution. 4th. As soon, as a sufficient number of Sbai'es shall have been^applied for to warrant the commencement of business, the Head Office will be opened in Duiiedin, in suitable premises already secured under offer, and thereafter Branches will gradually be opened in the chief centres of settlement throughout the Colony. • sth. Itwill bethe chief aim of the Promoters of this Bank to aid and conserve aliko the interests of the whole eontmunity in this Golony..The Mercantile, .Trading, Pastoral/ Agricultural, Mining,- Artizan, -and Laboring classes ■ will .each have fair- treatment and support from the Colonial Bank. To the Mining Interest special attention will be given, irith 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 ttie purpose of 'coinage. 6th. It .is not intended by the Promoters that this Bank shall purchase gold, but merely be prepared to makeadrances upon it until realised, in the same manner that it will be ready to do upon wool, grain, or other produce;
