The clip applier of claim 4, further comprising a lockout plate positioned intermediate said biasing member and said stack of clips, wherein said biasing member is configured to bias said lockout plate into alignment with said proximal opening to block said firing drive from entering into said storage chamber after said clips have been ejected from said magazine assembly. 6. The clip applier of claim 5, wherein said lockout plate comprises a plurality of guides, and wherein said housing further comprises a plurality of co-operating guides configured to co-operate with said lockout plate guides to define the movement of said lockout plate along a predetermined path. 7. The clip applier of claim 5, wherein said housing further comprises a distal housing wall including a distal opening, wherein said firing platform comprises a shelf, wherein said biasing member is configured to bias a said clip against said shelf, and wherein said shelf is aligned with said distal opening of said distal housing wall. 8. The clip applier of claim 1, further comprising a first jaw and a second jaw positioned relative to said distal opening, wherein said first jaw is movable toward said second jaw to deform a said clip positioned intermediate said first jaw and said second jaw. 9. The clip applier of claim 8, further comprising a crimping drive configured to move said first jaw toward said second jaw, wherein said crimping drive is configured to be actuated in sequence with said firing drive. 10. The clip applier of claim 1, further comprising means for blocking said firing drive after said clips have been ejected from said magazine assembly. 11. The clip applier of claim 1, wherein said firing drive is configured to enter into said housing along a firing axis, wherein said biasing member is configured to bias a said clip into a firing position along a supply axis, and wherein said supply axis is transverse to said firing axis. 12. The clip applier of claim 11, wherein said supply axis is perpendicular to said firing axis. 13. The clip applier of claim 1, further comprising a cartridge lock configured to releasably hold said magazine assembly in said magazine opening. 14. A clip applier surgical instrument, comprising: a shaft, wherein said shaft defines a longitudinal axis, said shaft comprising: a distal portion; anda cartridge receptacle;a cartridge assembly removably positionable in said cartridge receptacle, wherein said cartridge assembly comprises: a housing comprising an enclosing wall;a storage chamber defined in said housing;a discharge opening;a stack of clips removably positioned within said storage chamber, wherein said stack of clips comprises a plurality of clips stacked on top of one another along a stack axis which is transverse to said longitudinal axis; anda biasing member configured to align a said clip with said discharge opening, wherein said biasing member is positioned intermediate said enclosing wall and said stack of clips, and wherein said biasing member is entirely contained within said storage chamber of said housing; anda firing drive configured to advance a said clip from said cartridge assembly through said discharge opening. 15. The clip applier surgical instrument of claim 14, wherein said shaft further comprises: a proximal portion; andan articulation joint rotatably connecting said proximal portion and said distal portion of said shaft. 16. The clip applier surgical instrument of claim 14, further comprising a lockout plate positioned intermediate said biasing member and said stack of clips, wherein said housing further comprises a proximal housing wall including a proximal opening, wherein said proximal opening is configured to receive said firing drive, and wherein said biasing member is configured to bias said lockout plate into alignment with said proximal opening to block said firing drive from entering into said storage chamber after said plurality of clips have been ejected from said cartridge assembly. 17. The clip applier surgical instrument of claim 16, wherein said lockout plate comprises a plurality of guides, and wherein said housing further comprises a plurality of co-operating guides configured to co-operate with said lockout plate guides to define the movement of said lockout plate along a predetermined path. 18. The clip applier surgical instrument of claim 16, wherein said housing further comprises a shelf, wherein said biasing member is configured to bias a said clip against said shelf, and wherein said shelf is aligned with said discharge opening. 19. The clip applier surgical instrument of claim 14, wherein said firing drive is configured to enter into said housing along a firing axis, wherein said biasing member is configured to bias a said clip into a firing position along a supply axis, and wherein said supply axis is transverse to said firing axis. 20.
