of heavy caahre. Another cruiser of the Vaham-claimed, at the Post Ofice. teer feet was to leave here next week, taking | out a large body of Cossacks and other troops, but as the cruiser afskra, which was designated for this purpose, has been damaged in collision with another Volunteer Beet cruiser here in the harbour, it is likely that the departure of this body of men will be pasiponed for a few days. A most significant order has been given respecting the departure of the cruiser Moskva from this port, and that is that the damages are to be made good as soon as possible and, on receiving the reinforcements of Cossacks intended for the Far East, this cruiser is to steam at a speed of not less than to knots from this port to her destination, l'ort Arthur The supplementary expense eansed by this order means an addition of upwards of 30,000 roubles for coal alone.

The news seems at first sight a litle surpris- ing, for a month has not gone by since we heard with mixed sensations that he had been nominated Minister of Commence. The pro-] blems appertaining to that department-hot to speak of the question of Tariff Revision to. which, we were toll, his energies were to be immediately devoted are so vast and so com- plex that the uninitiated might have been excused for expecting that they would occupy his undivided energiek and attention for the rest of his already prolonged existence. Nobody, it is true, who is acqipted with his character and antecedents can hire seriously expreted him to do anything to contribute to the legitimate development of the resources of his country. It was announced, of course, by the henchmen at the Mafarins in Ear pe that the nomina tion of 13 marked the commencement of the longdeferred regeneration of the Celestial Empire, but the collection of irs behaviour during the twenty of thirty years for which he was the superintendent, of the northern trade of China was sufficient to prevent the most credulous from cherishing Any illusion of this sort. Still there were reasons for thinking that he might continue 10 devote himself exclusively to his new office. The true auses of the transfer of Chinese Mandarios from one post to mother can in the first instance, only be matters of surmise to us outer barbarians. In the case of Li Hung. chang, it would be rash with our present faform-Connery, R. H. ation to guess which kind or kinds of causes may have been at work. Indirectly his ap. pointatent to Kwang-tung has been bunghi About by the complaints of the French against the late Viceroy, but it does not thereforehambers, E..W. follow that he is indebted to them for being relegated from Peking to Canton. The sign ficance of the appointment, so far as we are concerned, obviously depends in no small measure on the way in which it has been made. If European influence should prave be responsible for the choice of the new Viceroy, the selection would Another character in our eyes. It is not with France that Li Hung-chang's relations have been most intimate and met notorious, but it is with a Power that, until lately at all events, has been supposed to co-operate very closely with French policy in the Far East. This Power, it is not inconceivable, may have over come Li's objections to relinquishing the Minis try of Commerce and to accepting a distant Viceroyalty either in the interests of rance or in her own. In either alternative the nomination would necessarily impose upon us the duty of extreme watchfulness. Pending further in- vestigation, we are happily not driven to assume that any serious political meaning underlies the new appointment,

The Debats assures The Times that its appre. hension of Franco-Russian intrigues with Li Hung-chang is unfounded, and that France will not deviate from M. Delcasse's "admir able principles; for these have been adopted by France not to win England's good graces, but in her own well-under- stood intersts? France, it says, is the staunch advocate of the "open door," which, how- ever, does not mean the adminstrative and military reorganisation of China by England alone, as advocated by Lord C. Beresford and, perhaps unconsciously, by The Times itself. It demurs to the remark of The Times-that-|- France should not thwart English interests in Kwang-tung, for this would comprise the largest and richest part of China, and if certain ideas prevalent in England were acted upon the partition of China would be precipitated and the peace of the world jeopardised. This tendency, indeed, is the most serious cause of Hudson, Lt. A. K.. anxiety in the arduous problem of Chinese rear-Hesketh, S. B. ganisation and adinision into the general move-Howard, J.

This succesful and highly popular remedy, M as employed in the Continental Hospitals by Ricord, kostan, Jobert, Velpeau, and others, combines all the desiderata to be sought in a medicine of the kind, and surpasses everything hitherto employed.
THERAPION No. 1, in a few days only,
removes all discharges from the urinary organs, effectually superseding injections, the use of which does irreparable harm by laying the foundation of stricture and other serious dis, cases. In dysentery, piles, irritation of thei lower bowel, cough, bronchitis, asthma, and some of the more trying complaints of this kind, it will be found astonishingly efficacious, affording prompt relief where other well-tried remedies have been powerless.
THERAPION No. 2, for impurity of the blood, scurvy, pimples, spots, blotches, pains | and swellings of the joints, secondary symp: toms, disease of the bones, sore throat, and all diseases for which it has been too much a¦ fashion to employ mercury, aarsaparilla, &d, to the destruction of the sufferer's teeth and ruin of henith This preparation purifies the whole system through the blood, and throughly eliminates every poisonous matter from the body.
THERAPION No. 3, for nervous exhaustion, waste of vitality, and all the distressing con- sequences arising from early error, excess residence in hot, unhealthy climates, &c. It posseses surprising power in restoring strength * and vigour to the debilitated.
