ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.
London and Venezuela Bank" has for its proposed
operations a ground unoccupied, and is most urgently re-
quired. Preliminary negotiations have been in progress for
Porn. months, and the project has been sub nitted to the
judgment of the most eminent Venezuelan merchants, and
has met with their unqi/alified approval. Support is promised
in highly influential quarters, and the Directors are assured
that
the thGoverenment privilege of issuing Bank notes will be accorded by
The bankingfacilities which Caracas has hitherto pos-
sof essed have been very limited, but the feet that the Bank

The no doubt that the present
will result in. complete success,
while = eP'aowin, Rolliashed by Messrs. Matheson and Co.,
tet'uers for th Ireneinelan Loan in June last,
confirm the above statements :
_ At present there is almo,t an entire absence of banking
'coommodation in Venezuela. Possessed of every advantage
of climate and soil, within sixteen days' sail of England, the
sing monetary facilities are quite inadequate to the corn-
merce of the country, and to the increasing production and
Prapidly extending exp nts of its coffee, cocoa, cotton, hides,

The advantages of this
r uWhitton will be obvious to all, and as the rat 's of interest
from 1 to 15 per cent. per annum, the profits may be
'e-'l3ected to be c onside rabic,"

!quantities it finds safe and profitable employment at muchalsztter rates than those quoted by Messrs. Matheson.
..,t he Want of an Exchange Bank in Venezuela wasions
_hrl, El utmost inconvenience in buying and selling foreign
lls ; this Bank will supply the want, and as returns can be
Made with far greater rapidity from Venezuela than from
India, where banking facilities of a like nature have been
Ibund extremely profitable, it is certain this branch must be
still more remunerative.
The principal control of the London and Venezuela
Bank will be vested In the Board of Directors in England.
They will select a manager or known qualifications, who,
on his arrival, wi 1 have he assistance and advice of the
Directors .n Caracas and La Guayra, who are Europeans of
high standing, in the country, and well known in connection
with Venezuelan trade and finance.
