THE GALLANT NAPIER.
Estimate of the character of Admiral Napier in
1833, extracted from the Memoirs of Sir
Charles Shaw.
" The power of mind which Admiral Napier possesses has
something overwhelming in it. In reviewing a subject, he
sees at once all its different bearings ; not a trifle escapes his
eye, but he pushes those trifles aside, and bears only upon that
which his acute mind in a moment decides is the great point
which, once attained, he knows will carry every other. To use
militaryphrase, Napier can at once muster the different divi-
sions of his mind " en masse," then he advances, bearing all
opposition before him ; not attacking insignificant points, but
with a tact peculiarly his own, seizing and occupying at once
great positions ; while other people were thinking what ought
to be done, and were discussing the means of attaining that
purpose, they only knew of Admiral Napier thinking of it by
finding that he had succeeded in achieving the great oject they
had been puzzling their brains about. This was the style of
man to carry success with it."—Extract, page 45.
