Hitherto the entire property of the shareholders in Joint-
stock Banks has been liable for she debts and engagements
of the Bank of which they were proprietors, and the risks
and inconveniences which have occasionally occurred
therefrom have necessarily deterred many from investing
their capital in shares in such undertakings.
The Joint-stock Banking Companies Amendment Acts,
passed expressly to remove this uncertain risk, and to give
confidence in Joint-stock Banks, have entirely obviated
this objection as regards Banks of limited liability, and
the Metropolitan and Provincial Bank (limited)," has
been established under the express provisions of those Acts,
sO that no shareholder therein can possibly be liable for
any sum beyond the amount of the shares he holds.
The following tabular statement of the business results of
four of the London Joint-stock Banks to the 30th June last,
clearly indicates their advancing success, and the present
market value of their shares.

At the Half-yearly Meeting of the same Bank, held in
January last, it was shown that since the Company had
become limited the shareholders had very nearly doubled
in number, while the current accounts had increased 35 per
cent, and the lodgment accounts 69 per cent., with a cor-
responding increase in the amount deposited.
The Liverpool Commercial Banking Company, originally
established with unlimited liability, have also taken advan-
tage of the new principle, and the following is an extract
from the Report presented at the General Meeting held on
the 9th of March last :—" It is in a high degree pleasing to
the Directors to be enabled to state, as they confidently do,
that the principle of limited liability' adopted by the Bank
has so fully justified their hopes. The general business of the
Bank has never been better; no branch of it has suffered ;
on the contrary, new and valuable accounts are added,
bringing an increase of business, while some substantial and
valuable proprietors, who objected to hold shares under
unlimited liability,' have joined the Bank as shareholders;
the number of proprietors is increased, and the price of the
Bank's shares shows that they are considerably enhanced
in publie estimation."
Powers are taken in the articles of association to estab-
lish branch banks in the metropolis and the provinces, as
soon as the business operations of the Bank justify its ex-
tension.
A deposit of £2 per share on the number of shares applied
for must be paid to the Ccmpany's bankers, or, if more con-
venient, may be forwarded to the Secretary (if by cheque,
to be crossed " Bank of London"), who will forthwith
return the banker's receipt for the amount.
Applications for shares to be made through the Brokers
or the Secretary at the Company's Temporary Offices, 27,
Gresham-street, Bank, London.

REVIEWS OF THE WORK.
"Curtis on Manhood.—This is a truly valuable work, and
should be in the hands of young and old."—" Sunday Times,"
23d March, 1856.
"The author has conferred aeat boon by publishing, this
little work, in which is described the source of those diseases
which produce decline in youth or more frequently premature
old age."—" Daily Telegraph," March 27, 1854.
" This work, which for twenty years has stood the test of
professional criticism and empirical hostility, treats in a plain
and sympathising manner on the various disqualifications
pnd impediments arising from nervous excitement and de -
y bility ; and to invalids suffering from youthful errors and
it will be found valuable and useful."—Record.
