Is worried about the potential consequences of using Nepalese and Sikh troops to help suppress the Mutiny. Their aid was needed and properly accepted by the Government but the Jung (Bahadur, ruler of Nepal) and the Sikhs are not doing all this for nothing. "And the troops who have seen us in need of their help and calling for it are not unlikely to conclude that they may be as formidable to us tomorrow as they are to our enemies today, and may act on this conclusion. People at home think only of the fact that they are on the British side".
