TOZEAU'S COPAHINE, or SACCHARATED
C 4.PSULES.—Copaiba and Cubebs are, doubtless, the best
remedies, but, these drugs are of a repulsive taste and odour, and
occasion colicky NAM, nausea, and gastric disturbance. St. JOZEAU
has succeeded in rendering these valuable therapeutic agents perfectly
innocuous, by increasing in his Copahine all their curative pro-
perties. This important preparation has been adopted by the Paris
Academy of Medicine, after more than 1,000 trials In the Paris
and different London hospitals, viz , St. Thomas's, Guy's, and Bar-
tholomew's, under the care of Messrs. Lloyd, Poland, and Legros
Clerk. (See " Lancet " Nov. 6, and Dec. 10, 1852, a copy of which
will be forwarded on application.) The Copahine, which is in the
form of a pretty pink sugar plum, effects a cure in about six days,
either in recent or chronic diseases. One hundred capsules, 4s. 6d. ;
50, 2s. 9d.—To be had of the Inventor, G. Jozeau, sole French
Chemist, 49, Haymarket, London, and all the most important

TESTING A NEW COLOSSAL ORGAN FOR THE CHURCH
OF ST. NEOT'S, HUNTINGDON.—On Tuesday evening a
number of influential clergymen and musicians connected
with places of public worship in the metropolis, attended
at the manufactory of Mr. G. M. Holdich, organ builder,
in the New-road, King's cross, to hear one of the most
splendid organs ever before erected tested, prior to its
removal to the parish church of St. Neot's. This beau-
tiful instrument is constructed on the Germap principle,
and oonsists of three distinct sets of manuals, with an
independent pedal organ. The stops are thirty-four in
number. The diapasons, of which there are four in the
great orgar, are grave, smooth, and sonorous. The
mixtures are bright, subdued, and well-balanced, the
unison reed extremely fine, the swells exceedingly effec-
tive, and the shades when opened pouring forth a com-
plete flood of musical sound upon the ear. The choir
organ is very delicate, and has superior imitative stops.
The tones of the pedal open diapason are fine, giving
that peculiar double bass effect for which this stop was
evidently intended. The general character of the St.
Neot's organ is good, mixing well, and producing a rich
equal volume of tone, free from all harshness. The
manufacturer has evidently taken much pains in secur-
ing a natural instead of a forced tone from the various
stops, an important point often neglected by other
builders of modern colossal instruments. Mr. Corelli
Beer, organist of St. Peter's. Pimlico, who performed at
the Great Exhibition in 1851, presided, and gave gene-
ral satisfaction by playing a well-selected and classical
programme. The overtures to " Euryanthe " and
" Grahame Tell " were magaifieently executed The
organ was yesterday removed to St. Neot's, under the
r penes* ouperiutesdouoo of Air.

( From the Times of this day.)
The continual and rapid growth of the Russian
empire, north, south, east, and west, for a century
and a half, has been described as the most marvel-
lous fact of modern times. But there is another fact
equally strange and portentous, and that is the
continual state of passive apprehension in the face
of which. this growth has taken place.. Europe has
not slept ; she has not been hoodwinked ; she has
not been deceived ; nor has hers been an indefinite
alarm. As in a trance, with her eyes open, but
her hands tied, she has seen Russia advancing upon
her nearer and nearer, larger and larger ; occupy-
ing more and more space in the Eastern horizon ;
spreading her wings from the Arctic Circle to the
southern shores of the Euxine, and penetrating
into the very heart of the Continent. Europe has
known beforehand every step of this progress.
There never was a time since the days of Peter the
Great in which the whole game of aggrandisement
and the next move in it were not obvious to all
reasonable men. It only so happens that the op-
portunity of preventing what everybody foresaw
has never yet occurred. On the other hand there
has been a remarkable series of occasions when the
embroilment of Europe, or some more present
danger, gave Russia the opportunity of doing that
which a few years before all Europe would pro-
bably have banded to prohibit. We have before
us a pamphlet by no ordinary hand, which shows
that in the year 1781, on the very eve of .the
French Revolution, Russikpresenbedjust the same
aspect to English vigilance as shealcl-11148434,
Yes, 64 years ago our more observant politicians
saw and denounced her restless ambition, her un-
scrupulous policy, her art of profiting by the
divisions of her neighbours, her sudden proffers
of friendship when a purpose was to be served,
her subsequent treacheries, and the rapid strides
by which she was ever advancing. Her
cherished schemes had even then been all un-
masked,—her design to close the Baltic and the
Black Sea ; to wind round into the Scandinavian
peninsula ; to occupy the shores of the Bosphorus ;
to command the trade of the Levant and the over-
land passage to India.; to embrace both Europe,
and Asia in her fatal grasp, and so become the
mistress of the world. All this was then foreseen,
and much of it has since been accomplished in the
very face of our foreknowledge. Divided among
ourselves, engaged in a war of principles, alarmed
by revolution, amused by social changes, pursuing
schemes of commercial policy, and flattering our-
selves with the hopes of a speedy millennium, we
have gazed with idle wonder at a giant Power,
which, without divisions, without change, without
principles, without progress, without opinion,
without heart or soul—with nothing but one
simple idea of universal dominion, grew every day,
and spread the net, and dug the pit, and accumu-
lated the stores for the conquest of the world.
The pamphlet to which we refer was directed
against " the principle which some gentlemen of
late had laboured to establish, that peace can and
ought to be preserved under all possible circum-
stances ;" and the particular occasion which eli-
cited it was the report that Sweden and Denmark
had been persuaded to defend the entrance of the
Baltic while the Arms of Russia drove the Turks
into Asia. The writer points out, what events
have since verified, and what has just now a parti-
cular application, that the two nations commanding
the entrance to the Baltic formed, as it were, by
nature to prescribe bounds to the ambition of
Russia, at least on one side of her extensive empire
—who ought to be securities to the rest of Europe
for her good behaviour—had repeatedly felt the
effects of her power, had the most to apprehend
from it, and knew how little they could count on
her equity and moderation. England herself had
frequently • experienced the precarious nature of
Russian friendship, and knew not what to expect
from her. But what made the country deaf to all
warnings against her ambition was the 'old idea
that Russia was an ancient and natural ally, and
the unhappy circumstance that Englishmen could
only imagine one war, and that was with the House
of Bourbon in France and Spain. The pamphleteer
indeed, though otherwise sagacious enough, par-
took of this latter delusion, and only argued that
Russia, on the supposition of her friendship, was
not likely to help us very effectually against the
then immense fleets of those two countries. As to
Russia being an ancient and natural ally, he says,
" If the antiquity of alliances is an argument for
preserving them, the Turk has a prior claim to the
Muscovite to our friendship ; and this claim is
strengthened by the consideration that he is the
only power in Europe with whom we have never
been in hostility, not even through the checkered
and collateral means of alliances with other States."
The designs of Russia be describes, be it observed,
64 years ago, in the very terms vith which we are
now too familiar :—" A spirit of conquest has uni-
formly marked the conduct of Russia since Peter
the Great laid the foundation of that greatness
which threatens to overwhelm us. Nothing less
than the full possession of Constantinople and the
Black Sea at least will satisfy her inordinate ambi-
tion. In possession of the Euxine at one extremity
of Europe, and of the Baltic at the other, she will
encircle the fairest and best cultivated portion of
the globe." So the writer justly Sayi---" The sole
question to be considered is how far it is consistent
with the safety of the British Government to per-
mit the Russians to extinguish the Turkish em-
pire and establish their dominion on the Bos-
phorus." The consequences of a dominion so
established he follows out without any extrava-
gance, as it appears to us, to the occupation
of Egypt, the possession of the Red Sea, and
the ultimate supremacy of Russia in the East.
tier designs upon Finland, since accomplished, the
author treats in the same way, and his remarks
,3xcite a most painful regret that there was no one
to protest against the actual annexation of that pro-
vince as vigorously and successfully as in 1748,
when the King of. Prussia met the hostile prepara-
tions of the Czar with a remonstrance backed by
the threat of 150,000 men.
Then, as now, the writer had to meet the objec-
tions, already old, that Russia was geographically
" unattackable ;" that a war with her would de-
prive us of tallow and other raw material, and cut
off a market for our own manufactures ; and that
Russia had a species of right to enlarge her borders
among her weaker neighbours, which right we had
no business to gainsay or restrict till we found our-
selves the immediate object of attack. He argued,
as has lately been argued by our own statesmen,
and as the event has fully justified, that ire can
crush Russia whenever we think proper to put
forth our strength. This, indeed, he said
in 1791 of
England alone, and it is no great wonder if in
1853 we only ventured to say this of the two great
Western Powers. He predicted, indeed, that the
task must be more difficult year by year) and ac-
cordingly asks—" first, whether it is equitable and
politic that the Turk should be .driven out of Eu-
rope, from the promontory dividing and connect-
ing the Euxine and Mediterranean ; secondly,
whether it is consistent with the safety of Great
Britain to allow the Court of St. Petersburg to
found, as it were, a new sovereignty on the de-
struction of the Ottoman empire." Assuming the
only possible answer to these questions, he proceeds
—" How can Ministers acquit themselves to their
Sovereign, their country, and posterity, if they
' should permit a Power to rise into existence, and
grow to maturity, that will not only eclipse,
but that may eventually extinguish the very name
' of Britain 1" He proceeds to point out that
other Powers aiming at universal empire had been
so dealt with ; that France herself had been forced
to confine her dominion in Europe between the
Rhine and the Pyrenees ; and he only applies
the same measure to Russia :—" Why should
Russia claim an exemption from restrictions to
which other S.overeigus have submitted ? Why
should Russia be'suffered to acquire an addition of
force that may enable her to prescribe the law im-
periously to surrounding nations, and become the
arbitress of the world t" And the writer addi, "It
is not against what she will, but against what she
s be
havetter, e
may hereafter do, that we are tog uard ; and we all
to pr had th event
know that it is easier, as well aW
oppression than to resist."
harder task—the resistance to an act of oppression
long prepared, and backed with the whole force of
Russia. The increase of difficulty is the price we
pay for our protracted sufferance. We have at
last been obliged to come to the very expedient
suggested by the writer before us, and which 64
years ago would doubtless have been more effectual.
" A. British fleet at this instant," he says, " in the
Baltic would, perhaps, operate more strongly in
persuading Russia to restore peace to Turkey, and
leave our ally in repose, than all the rhetoric and
all the arguments in favour of equity and expe-
diency that the noble lord in the Foreign Depart-
ment and the two gentlenien on mission at St.
Petersburg could
possibly advance." We need
hardly say what noble lord or .what gentlemen in
the British Parliament will suggest- tAiemselyes to
the reader of this passage. We are now sufficiently
aware of the superior efficacyof a fleet in the Baltic

AUSTRALIA.
LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY.
By the Overland Mail we have received com-
mercial advices from Melbourne, 15 days later
than those brought by the West India mail steamer
Atrato. The advices, which are to the 30th of
August inol,usive, were delivered at Ceylon on the
14th ult., in 39 days from Melbourne, by the
" White Star " clipper ship Arabian. This vessel's
run from Liverpool to Ceylon, via Melbourne,
where she landed a full complement of passengers
and discharged upwards of 1,000 tons of cargo,
occupied only four months and 20 days, the quickest
on record.
The clipper ship Oliver Lang sailed from Mel-
boiirne on the 23d of Atgusti and the White Star
on the 30th, for Liverpool. The Kent was an-
nounced to sail positively on the 13th of September.
These ships will bring on freight gold vilified at
1,000,0001. sterling. - Besides 80,000 ounces of
gold, the White Star has on board 70 tons of
South Australian smelted copper for Birmingham
and London, via Liverpool, 1,000 bales of wood,
and 150 passengers.
The Merlin arrived at Melbourne on the 20th of
August. The Donald M'Kay, with the mails of the
6th of June, reached on the 26th of August, from
.Liverpool. • •:
As regards the gold-yielding qualities of Austra-
lia, we learn that the quantity being produced was
decidedly on the increase, not only at the older
fields, but also at those more recently discovered,
and not merely was the gold produce increasing in
amount, but the prospects in regard to the supply
were almost daily improving, not only by an eaten■
sion of the area of those fields which were familiar,
but by the successful workings of others lately
opened. The progress of discovery was principally
in the direction of the north-west portion of the
colony, although accounts had lately been received
of a favourable character from parties who had
been " prospecting" to the eastward.
As regards immigration, we find from the re-
turns that the balance of arrivals over departures

for the portion of the year which terminated on
the 25th of August was 40,172, or about 5,000 a
month, a rate of increase which, omitting natural
causes, would double the population in four years.
The Exports of gold and other produce from Mel-
bourne for the second quarter of 1855 were of the
value of 2,952,692/.against 2,286,5651. for the same
p -riod in 1854. The quantity shipped to Great
Britain was of the value of 2,675,998/.in 1855, and
1,723,1871. in 1854. The total value of the ex-
ports from the colony of Victoria for the second
quarter of 1855 was 3,025,8221. against, for the
same period in 1854, 2,500,5801. We also per-
ceive that in the increase of the total exports of the
colony of Victoria there is an increase of the quan-
tity of the staple productions, and not simply of
the value of goods reshipped ; and also that the in-
crease has not been to the neighbouring colonies—
not to America and other foreign States—but con-
sists of bona fide shipments of produce to the
United Kingdom. The contrast exhibited by the
imports is almost favourable. Instead of those ex-
ceeding the exports by an amount which used to be
disheartening, they are now so reduced in amount
that the exports much more than balance them.
This must eventually improve the internal trade
and commerce of Australia.

The Melbourne markets generally during the
month of August were characterised by an extent
of dulness to which the past three years of colonial
experience afford no parallel.
Rides were a shade lower, the vessels now on the
berth being full, and shippers inactive.
There was a marked improvement_ in_ iron-
mongery generally.
. In dry goods very little was doing, but there
were numerous inquiries for spring goods,• on
which a fair profit could be obtained.
For timber there was not much demand, but

prices were unaltered. •- -
The quotations for wool were 6d. to Bd. per lb.,
in grease ; ls. 3id. to ls. sid. for superior fleece ;
Is. 2d. to is. 3d. for good to middling ; and ls, to
ls. ld. for inferior fleeces. There was very little
offering. Tallow was offering at 581. to 681. per ton
for mutton, and a 381. for beef tallow.
Liverpool coarse salt was selling at 51.105. to 61.
per ton ; 81. to 81. 103. for fine ; and at 41. to 41.
10s. for inferior.
In freights, the rates quoted were—to London,
wool, Id. per lb:; tallow, 40s. per ton ; gold, iu
quantities of or above 1,000 ounces, 4d. per ounce,
and dead weight 40s. per too. To Liverpool—
wool, -id. per lb. ; light goods, 40s. per ton. To
Bristol—wool, id. per lb. ; tallow, 60s. per ton ;
light goods, 60s. per ton ; and hides, 50s. per ton.

" GRRLONG, Aug. 25.—There has bees no alteration
in the buying price since last circular; it remains steady
at 765. 9d. There has been very-little business doing in
town. The diggers' lots offered have been few ; but at
the same time there seems no very great anxiety to pur-
chase, nor need it be expected till on the eve of the sail-
ing of the next English vessel.
" In the Ballarat district a good deal of attention is
directed to the Buninyong Ranges, at present the scene
of some rushes. These ranges have long been noticed
as without doubt auriferous, and great results prophe-
sied on the opening of them up. Now a good many are
already doing well there, and it bids fair to be a favourite
quarter.

" Wardy Yallock is still prosperous. The several
fields are spoken well of. The district is increasing in
its population daily.
"It is reported that something good has been met
with at Lake Omeo, and that those at present there are
getting richly remunerated. It will be recollected that
this quarter was prospected the first season of gold-find-
ing, but without any great result. Although gold was
got, the quantity was not a sufficient recompence for the
toil and expense in such a cold and inclement quarter.
"The other fields aro this week reported mith-about
the usual success. _
" Quartz•crushing is getting more and more in favour,
and a great many must be by this time engaged in that
line, but as yet there appears very little of the result

It is apparent that an accession to the reserve of the
Bank of 500,0001. would be wholly inadequate to offer
the prospects of results which according to some un•
founde 1 statements have induced the entire banking
community to petition the Government on the subject.
The enlargement would not affect in any sensible degree
the value of money or the Bank rate of discount, and it
would be speedily absorbed by the heavy foreign expen-
diture of the Government. Indeed within a very short
time from the alteration being made we may find the ac•
counts of the Bank stand thus :
