Iceies In South Africa has been very remarkable the imports,
aspects, and public revenues having, during that period, multi-
plied threefold, and from public returns Just t o hand it is
minuted that a yet higher progressive increase will be shown

The banking t 7capital of the colonies has not kept pace with this
Increase of trade, suit it his become clear that a new tanking
institution of considerable ma;aitude, and with adequate re-
issues., is now apublic necessity, and must command success.
To meet this necessity, sod as a profitable and safe invest-
ment of capital, the Standard blank of British South Africa is
established.
That the proposed field of operations is both safe and pro-
fitable is allow n by the fact that, although in the South African
Colonies the rates of discount on first-elms bulls range from S to
It per cent., not one instance of lugs is recorded in the last an-
nual statements of the local hanks.
