L►nlas •rn GtifTLElll6l , l, The recent failure of the Royal British Bank having crested much alarm and disturbance in the public mind, and a natural distrust of all young banking institutions, I think it my duty to tell you and the public 1. That every Depositor In the Unity Bank may have his money if he chooses to apply for it. 2. That the Pail-up Capital of the Bank, 160,0001., remains intact, with the exeeption of the ordinary expanses. 8. That the Lad debts made by the Bank do not amount to fifty pounds, although one hundred and fifty thousand pounds worth of bills discounted by the Bank have run utf. 4. That the Bank holds nu doubtful or inconvertible securities, but carries out the principles Laid down in Mr. Gilbart's excel lent book on banking, viz., to confine its transactions to legiti mate objects, and never have large responsibilities with any one I shall be at the Bank daily during the hours of bustnisa, and ready to give the fullest detailed information to any Shareholder who may require it. I am, Ladies and Gentlemen, Very faithfully yours, J. J. MECHI, Governor of the Unity Bank. UNITY JOINT•STOCK MUTUAL BANKING ASSOCIATION. Chief Offices, Unity Buildings, 10, Caution-street, City, London, September 11, 1856. TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE UNITY BANK. LADIES ♦ND GIIWiLEIILN, Having many inquiries respecting our Branches, permit me to place before you our views and intentions-- 1. That the amount invested in Branches shall never ex ceed one-fifth of the Paid-up Capital of the Bank. 2. That every Branch that does not pay shall be closed. 8. That about one year's trial shall decide the fate of each Branch; although the first few months will generally indicate the probable result. It may be interesting to you to know that our Leicester-square Branch already neerly pays its expenses; those at Hertford, Ware, sod Bt. Albans promise well. The Watford Branch will probably only pay fur one day per week. The Brighton Branch, although incomplete, and opened during the panic, commenced favourably. We shall follow the example of the Bank of Eng land, which closed some but retained many of its Branches. It is the opinion of our first Banking authorities, that Branches are legitimate and profitable if well wanagod and effectively supervised. The rapid extension of our City is taking the population far away from the old Banks, and there is a great taxing of shop keepers in the operation of cheque and money-changing. With regard to the fitture Capital of the Bank, although you have so liberally authorised us to raise the Capital to Two Millions, it is our intention to proceed very gradually, according to circum stances, probably adding 30,000 L annually, or u much as can be profitably availed of, but, as I told you verbally, no increase of Capital will be attempted until the price of our Shares in the market evidences a healthy and prosperous condition of our Bank. We purpose letting off nearly the whole of the upper part of our magnificent premises to some public companies, so as to diminish our rental to the lowest convenient point. I think that I may safely congratulate you on your future prospects. I have devoted nearly my whole Ume, since the opening, to your Bank Parlour, and I shall continue to do so until 1 find our ship resting in smooth water. I am, Ladies and Gentlemen, Very faithfully yours, J.d. MECHT, Governer of the Unity Bank. UNITY GENERAL ASSURANCE ASSOCIATION.
