SUMMARY OF BANKS OF ISSUE.
(From the Bankers' Circular.)
On comparing the Returns tbr the past month with the total
" Fixed Issues" of the several Banks, we find the following is the
result :-
199 Private Banks allowed to issue £5,011,097
71 Joint-stock Banks allowed to issue.. • • • .. 3,477,321

£8,488,418
It appears that the following is the state of their circulation :
The Private Banks are below their fixed issue • ... £134,202
The Joint-stock Banks are below their fixed issue.. 312,470

Total below the fixed Issue-- £776,672

Several of the Banks appear to have found it difficult to comply
with the requisition of the recent Act, which obliges them to furnish
the returns of their circulation to the Stamp-office every week, as
directed by the Commissioners, for publication in the Gazettes, under
a penalty of 1001. During the past month three banks have omitted
to send the returns in time, and they were obliged to be published as
Supplements in succeeding Gazettes. In the course of the previous
mouth there were also three banks which subjected themselves to the
penalty. It is curious, that all the banks which have thus failed to
comply with the Act arc private banks.
