The application of the Joint stock principle to banking and
exchanges, under the control and general management of hoards
of directors in London, has proved so eminently successful in
the British Colonies and dependencies, more particularly in the
East and West Indies, that It is deemed expedient to introduce
that system into the Continent of Europe, with which our corn-
' morel& intercourse is now so great as to demand additional
facilities and safety In support of our mutual monetary trans-
action&

—E-anidag on the English system, and with Engil'h capital, bee
already been applied, with success, to foreign countries in the in-
stances of the Ottoman Bank as regards Turkey, and the Bank of
Egypt In Egypt, both conducted under royal charters of incor-
poration. Other companies have more recently been established,
with similar objects, tinder the Limited Liability Act,
The directors propose to take powers to apply for a special
charter for this Bank.

In the limits of a prospectus it is impossible to enter into full
details, but official statistics are available to show the increase
in the totals of our imports and exports of merchandise with the
principal countries of Central Europe, between the years 1864
and 1861, which may be Melly given thus—with /Primes, from 17
to 14 mlWons ; with Germany, from 16 to 19 millions ; with Hol-
land, from 13 to 18 millions: with Italy, from 6 to 9 millions ; and
with Spain, from 6 to 8 millions sterling.
Arrangements are matured to secure the services of gentlemen
of large experience to conduct the foreign department of the
budnews.

The tank, In addition to ordinary banking operations, will
oondact all the business of exchange agents. It will
Import and export gold and silver.
Purchase approved bills of exchange. coupons, notes, ,tc.

The British and AmeriCan Exchange Banking Corporation (Li-
mited) is formed for the purpose chiefly of dealing In exchange —a
business which, excepting with British possessions, has hitherto
been mainly In the hands of private firms , and It Is well known
that with many countries such banking facilities have not been
afforded to merchants and others as the vastly extended com-
merce of the present day demands. This is particularly the case
In the trade between England and America, and ILL proposed.
that this Corporation shall commence its operations by the estab-
lishment of an agency in New York.
The pprontable nature of Exchange business is well known,
eapecWly that with the American &Mee, and although the profit
is at present greater than can be calculated upon in ordintry years,
there is generally a much larger margin than is usually found
remunerative by bankers. The purchase and sale on commis-
sion of securities in New York and London, the dealings In
which amount annually to many millions sterling, and thu re-
mittances of interest and dividends, will afford other sources of
profit.
The practice now become very general of attaching bills of
lading to bills of exchange as collateral security, renders ex-
change operations more than usually safe, whilst the shipment
of gold Involves scarcely any risk whatever,
The shipments of produce and specie from New York alone for
the put year have amounted to nearly forty millions sterling,
and the average of several years has not been minis leas. There
Is thus a very extended field for the operations of th- corpo-
ration, and the facilities which it will afford, both In this co entry
and America, must tend to promote, and still further to extend,
the commercial and monetary tranaaclions between the two
•
countries.

-The mime remarks are applicable to other places In which the
eatablistuncut of agencies is COD d.
A large business in also an betwixt Amer ca and the
wine lu India and China, which will be carried out in co ope-
ration with the Oriental Bank Corporation.
The success of Jototatock Banks dealing in Exchange to evi-
denced by the present quotations ot the therm of the under-
mentioned Companies : and it is somewhat remarkable that the
Jobitditock principle has not yet been adopted In the Arntrienn
trade, though presenting a wider field for its profitable operation
than,any other part of the world. .

Although few countries present a more eligible field for the
establishment of a sound system of Joint-et ck banking thin
Portugal, it has hitherto been nearly destitute of this advan-
tage. The increase in the trade of the country, and its further
development by the opening of is railways, render the intro-
duction of such a system a matter of the utmost importance to
Portugal, while tt will afford a legitimate source of profit on
the capital invested for that purpose.
The operations of the Bank of Portugal (the only one in Lisbon)
are of a very restricted nature, yet its shares command a pre.
minm of Bil 10a. per share.
In Oporto three local banks hare been established within the
last few yearn, and are all in • prosperous condition, their
shares commanding the following premiums :
1. The Commercial Rank, B)) per cent. premium.
2. The Oporto Mercantile Bank, 210) per cent. premium.
8. The Union of Oporto Bank (very recently established), !I
percent. premium.

In addition to an extensive and profitable business between
Portugal and the United Kingdom, in Lisbon, and the previews,
large transactions constantly take place in tne negotiation of
paper from the Brazils, in which country It may be found desir-
able to estabildi branches.
The pyreeeliminary expenses will be strictly confined to the
actual dlsbunemeats attending the formation of the company.
Prospestuses and Forms of Application for Shares may be ob-
tained from the Brokers, or the Secretary, at the Temporary
