SIR CHARLES NAPIER, M. P., AND MR.
LOCKE, M.P., IN SOUTIIWARK.

Last night a large public meeting of the electors
and non-electorn of Southwark was convened at the
Bridge-house 'Hotel to hear from Admiral Sir C.
Napier and Mi. Locke, the members of Parliament
for the borough, an account of their stewardship
durino, last session, in conformity with a custom
which obtains in that part.of the metropolis.4lDr.
Challice occupied the chair, and briefly introduced
the members to the meeting.
Sir C .N AMR, on presentinghimself, was enthu-
siastically.cheered:: The gallant admiral, notwith-
standing his advanced age, looked extremely well.
He began his address by running over the names of
the principal bills passed during the present year,
to most of which he said ha had given his approval,.
adding that though the session had been unusually
brief it bad been remarkably fruitful in useful,
practical, legislation. He 'pointed to his vote in
support of Mr. Berkeley's motion for the ballot,
and then commented on the camp at Al-
dershott, as at present arranged in a vein
of ridicule; directing his satire especially against
the waste of the publio money in providing quarters
there for the Queen, a house for the commandinc,
officer at the eainp, and all the'paraphernalia of the
ballroonis and the like, seeing that the feeling of
the people—he did not- say they were right—was
averse to the maintenance of a great standing army,
and that, from the caprice of some one in supreme
authority, the barracks at Aldershott might ere
long be dispensed with. He then adverted to the
new Houses of Parliament, which he designated as
an enormous job. He said it required a person ab-
solutely to go upon the river to be able to see them.
He could not find them anywhere else. (A. laugh.)
The country was now in the expenditure of the
third million on the erection of those Houses of
Parliament, and they were not completed. Then
there was a great scheme for erecting a series of
public offices, at a cost of from 4,000,0001. to
5,000,000/., concootoftby Sir _Benjamin Hail, who
wished thereby to hand his name down to posterity
as a great man ; but he (Sir C. Napier) did what
he could do to put a spoke in his wheel. (A laugh.)
Approaching the subject of the Indian mutiny, the
gallant admiral said our Indian affairs had long been
in a deplorable state. He was happy, however, to
see by the last news from India that things there
were brightening up in a moat extraordinary de-
gree. If ever there was a class of men to whom the
British nation owed a debt of gratitude it was to
her own soldiers. The mutiny in India had exhi-
bited that truth in a new and striking light, for a
mere handful of European soldiers, assisted by the
army of the Punjaub and by the Ghoorkas, had
been able to hold their own against the whole of
the mutineers of the Bengal army. (Cheers.) He
admitted that the natives of British India bad a
right to endeavour to get back India for themselves
if they could ; but he utterly denied that in seek-
ing to carry out that object they were justified in
resorting to one single act of all the atrocious trea-
chery and inhumanity of which they had been
guilty. The people of this country were not pre-
pared for such atrocities, and they must hence-
forth regard the Sepoys as their most bitter
and implacable enemies. We had had from time
to time Whig and Tory Governments and Whig
and Tory Governors-General of India. We had
never had a Radical Government yet, and we were
not likely to get one. (A laugh.) But not one of
those Governments or Governors-General ever fore-
saw that this rebellion would happen. A gallant
relative of his own—(cheers)—was the only man in
India who had foreseen and warned the Govern-
ment that disturbances were likely to take place in
the Bengal army. The question remained—Had
we done all that we could do to suppress this mu-
tiny Y The news of it first reached this country in
the latter end of May, and he (Sir C. Napier) then
urged the Government not to lose one single mo-
ment in sending an adequate force out to India.
He was told, much to his surprise, that vessels
under sail would accomplish the voyage to India
just as soon as steamships. He did not believe that,
but there were people in the House of Commons
who did, and he did not know wbat, in the name
of God, some of them were made of. (A laugh.)
When he insisted that they who made the assertion
were wrong he was pooh-poohed ; but the truth
was that he could furnish soh people with argu-
ments, but not with brains. (A laugh.) The time
when the first troops sailed from this country for
India was in the beginning of July. There was
thus a loss of time of five or six weeks, and he
verily believed if those troops could have been sent
off immediately after the news of the rebellion
reached this country, it was possible that the mas-
sacre at Cawnpore might have been prevented.
(Hear, hear.) He would, however, say one thing
for the Government. Since the time when they
began to send troops out they had used the most
extraordinary exertions. (Hear, hear.) He did
not believe there was another nation in the world
who could have sent troops to such a distance with
anything like the same celerity as we had done to
India. He meant after the Government had reco-
vered their senses and had once begun to do the
work. The Chinese " row"—(a laugh)—was in
one sense a lucky incident, for but for it we should
not have had troops in India available for quelling
the mutiny so soon as we had. He next
prepared the meeting for the enormous cost
that the present war was sure to entail upon
the country, and told them that the people
would have the piper to pay in the shape of a higher
income-tax. If they did not agree to that, they
would have to make up their minds to lose India
altogether ; and, he would ask, was there a man
among them who would consent to give it up ?
(No, no.) Let them remember that if they relin-
quished their footing there they had neighbours
not far off who would say, you have lost India, and
by
--- we will take something else from you. (A
laugh.) He was not one of those who were prone
to cry, " Wolf ;" but he knew what the danger was
on this occasion, and he knew, too, that when the
country was down there would be plenty ready to
take advantage of it. One thing they *anted was
a proper reform of Parliament, an indispensable
part of which was the ballot. (Cheers.) He did
not doubt that with the ballot awl an extended
franchise they would return men to Parliament in
Southwark quite as competent to represent them as
he. (No, no.) In one sense he was glad to hear
them say, " No, no," for be was told a few year
ago that he was very old and decrepit, but k
they
might depend upon it he was able to do hiswor
yet. (A laugh.) As long as he had health and
strength he should cheerfully attend to his duties
as their representative in Parliament to the very
best of his ability. (Cheers.)
Mr. LOCKE, who followed, said he had nothing to
conceal and nothing to explain with regard to his
conduct in Parliament. He believed all the opinions
he professed when he was a candidate had been

strenuously and, as he thought, honestly asserted in
Parliament, so far as opportunities lad presented
themselves to him. He believed there was no great
question on which his gallant colleague and he had
differed. For example they voted together on the nio-
tion for the ballot, which he felt to be an absolutely
essential part of any reform in the representation ;
and be would take that opportunity to express his
regret that Lord J. Russell, who was looked to by
some as the man to lead the Reform party in the
next session, should on that occasion prove--he was
going to say a recreant,. but he would not say that
—though he was certainly not a convert to the
ballot. The noble lord was, on the contrary, one of
the most strenuous opponents of the ballot who spoke
on the debate ; and, therefore, he (Mr. Locke) said
that the noble lord was not the man to whom they
were to look iu the next session of Parliament as
the leader of the Reform party. (Hissing and coun-
ter cheers.) What he (Mr. Locke) wanted was a
full and complete representation of the people.
(Cheers.) He was not afraid of intristing the
working classes with the franchise. What he con-
tended for was, that every man who had a vote
should be protected in the exercise of it. He was
prepared to support a measure of reform of that
kind, let it come from what party it might in the
House of Commons. Turning to the Indian ques-
tion, he said, whatever might have been the origin
of our rule there, India was no longer the territory
of the East India Company, but was now an appan-
age of the British Crown, and belonged to the Eng-
lish people at large. Of late the Times newspaper
hid admitted into its columns statements of opinion
from almost all manner of men in reference to the
uspa, 4eibmzeicatin judi9; jai# be.helieyeeL that
those sihscon diictd that -3 ournacliie, lo
y
else, had been unable to arrive at any satisfactory
conclusion on the subject. He believed, too, that
both the Board of Control and the East India Com-
pany knew as little about the matter. And what
was the conduct of the Governor-General, Lord.
Canning ? Did he know more about it than the
Board of Control orthe East India Company ? Were
the measures which he and his council had adopted
—and that would be a great question for discussion
in the next session of Parliament—those which the
emergency demanded ? Was he justified in hold-
ing the hands of those gallant mest who commanded
our army in India? He (Mr. Locke) would say,
whether it was the army or the navy, there was no
set of men on the face of the earth who were
more humane than they were, and it did not be-
come any Governor-Ceneral to call on them to hold
their hands and not strike down those who were
such treacherous and implacable enemies. He
could not understand how it could be necessary for
the Government in India, who lived at home at
ease in Calcutta, to usurp the power of interfering
with the military authorities in the mode in which
they would redress this mutiny. To say the least
of it, that was a most extraordinary course of con-
duct on their part. For his part, he would leave in
the hands-of the military commanders in India the
execution of the mutineers whe had formed the
Bengal army. It should be for them to make
what distinctions they thought just in the punish-
ments they might inflict ; but be was sure it was
not for the Governments at Calcutta to seek to
fetter the free action of those gallant men who at a
great crisis had maintained a glorious struggle, and
who bad the confidence of the whole people of
England.
The hon. members subsequently underwent
some interrogation from electors in the room as to
the course they meant to take in the ensuing ses-
sion, and then,.
On the motion of Mr. JOHN VICKERS, seconded
by Mr. MARCUS SHARPE, a 'resolution, was tarried
expressivetof the of meeting that Sir Charles Napier
and Mr. LoCke had faithfully fulfilled the pledges
given by them on their election ; that the time had
arrived for the adoption of the ballot, the exten-
sion of the franchise, and the abolition of church-
rates, and for placing the whole government of
India on a more sa isfact ry footing.
The proceedings then terminated.
