The Promoters, in placing the foregjring facts before the people of this Colony, c 3sire to point out the very great disadvant iges that colonists are sure to labor under by 1 ndmg — or rather giving — such large sums of i^oney as stated above to foreign Banks, to be knt back to the people here at very high rates k interest, and on most arbitrary conditions. They therefore have no hesitation in suggesting tie prudence and wisdom of the colonists kseping within their own domain the absolute cjmtrol of thoir own moneys ; as 4 by so doing tley will most effectually destroy the risk of future monetary disturbances, which they hive 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 determine' V *'•» r *"" ■motors that the first issue of 200,000 Shares Bhall be conducted by Committees, to be appomte3 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. Ib 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 ss. per Share 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 Call of ss. per Share be made and payable six mouths after Allotment — making together 30s. paid up per Share. No further Call to be made within twelve months of the Bank first commencing business m Dunedin ; after which future Calls will tot exceed ss. per Share, nor be made at shorter intervals than three months between each Call. 11th. The Act of Incorporation for this Bank will be framed as to limit the liability of the Shareholders to twice the amount of their shares, the same as the other Banks. 12th. As a thoroughly Colonial Institution, the Promoters have much pleasure in strongly recommending 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 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. Applications for Shares will now be received at the Temporary Offices of the Bank, Highstreet, (late Club), where forms of application and full information can be obtained ; or, from War.
