Abstract:
"Scene in a dormitory in which curtained four-post beds are ranged on each side of the room receding in perspective. Three school-mistresses encourage resistance to a police-officer with a warrant. The pupils are mature young women in plain décolletée nightgowns with short sleeves, and closely fitting caps. The governesses are distinguished by more elaborate caps, and one, 'Mademoiselle', wears a frilled dressing-jacket. She scratches the officer's face, saying, "Ah you come for de Arms! I give you de Hands and de Nails in de bargain you great big Villaine." He holds a constable's staff and a warrant ending '. . . shall be your Warrant,' but makes no resistance; on the ground are his hat and the Information: 'To Peter Pry Police Officer, you will find several pairs of Arms conceald under the bed cloaths every night at Mrs Bounces boarding school in Gunpowder lane.' He shouts: "Murder! I am come to search for Arms! I was informed you had some concealed under the bed cloaths every night, look at my warrant!" He is assailed from behind by a strapping governess holding a candle and a large poker. She stands just inside the open door (left), kicking him, and says: "He shall have Arms, Legs and the poker too, I had just got into my first sleep." Another woman, probably Mrs. Bounce, runs up from the right holding up a candle. She exclaims: "Thats right Mademoiselle Mark him well that we may know him again by day light." The officer has two assistants; one, attempting to search a bed, receives in the face the contents of a chamber-pot from a girl kneeling on the bed; she says: "There some eye water to make you see clear." The third ransacks a trunk in the right foreground; its arched top is marked in nails 'J. Manlo[ve]'. He has thrown out two books: 'Aristotle Ma[sterpiece]' and 'Juvenile Indiscretions a Novel in 4 Vols.' and holds up 'Ovids Art of Love'. The owner grasps his short pigtail and raises a slipper to smite, saying, "I'll teach you to ransack my trunk in this manner you impudent fellow let my books of instruction alone." He answers: "Indeed Miss I won't take one away I would rather help to explain them!" Two pupils say: "Oh dear he is takeing Miss Manlove's pretty books, that she read of a Night to us," and "I'll tear his eyes out if he comes to my box." A stout girl runs forward from the right with raised arms and crisped fingers, saying, "Governess I can scratch rarely let me help you"."--British Museum online catalogue

"Two designs, side by side, each with title. [1] John, a very fat and jovial 'cit', leans back in an arm-chair holding up a glass of port. On the table beside him (right) are a decanter of 'Port', round of beef (pushed aside), pipe, tobacco-box. An empty tankard lies on the floor. He says: "Well a glass of good Port cheers both Body and mind and enables one to gthrough [sic] the fatigues of Business. Here's a bumper to the great Chatham aye he was a statesman A greater in England there never was known, A friend to the People, a friend to the Throne." On the wall is a framed portrait (three-quarter length) of 'Good Queen Bess' above three broadside ballads: 'The Land we live in'; 'Oh the roast Beef of Old England'; 'May we Live all the days of our Lives'. A fat bull-dog (left) gnaws a large bone. On the floor are also papers: 'Orders for Russia'; 'Good [sic] ship'd for America'; 'Ord . . .'; 'Good shipd for Spain'. [2] John, lean, ragged and starving, sits in profile to the left, on a broken chair in a ruinous garret, contemplating suicide. The head and shoulders of a stout tax-collector appear outside a (broken) casement window; he says: "Oh there you are enjoying yourself! I have been kocking [sic] at the door this have hour. I want your property Tax I had a deal of trouble last time I thought you had run away." John: "Why there is very little of me left sure enough you need not trouble yourself to call any more, for that will be gone soon." He faces a table, with an open drawer, on which a razor lies on a book: 'Toughts [sic] on suicide by Danl Doleful'; there are also a broken pitcher, an onion, &c. A starving cat looks up at its master. On the floor is a torn and discarded 'Order Book'. A 'Gazette' with two columns headed respectively 'Bankrupts', 'Promo[tions', an attack on 'placemen'], lies on large papers headed 'Butchers Bill'. With these are an empty plate and spoon and burned-down candle. There is a miserable bed (right); laths show through the broken plaster. On the wall is a large half length print of 'Iohn Bellingham' above broadside-ballads: 'Oh Dear what can the matter be', and 'there's nae luck about the House'."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"John Bull, a 'cit' wearing (unfastened) shirt and breeches, stands in a bare room near a miserable truckle bed, furiously waving wig and a night-cap inscribed 'Patent', towards objects representing malt, tea, tobacco, and coffee. He has flung at them his hat, coat, waistcoat, and shoes, and they totter backwards under the impact (right). All are demanding "More Wages," except malt, which asks for "More Profit." John shouts: "More Wages, you Scoundrels! will you never be satisfied! have'nt I given you House and increased your wages at different Tunes for Years past, and now you want more! But I'll dispense with ye all, so out of my House, ye pampered Knaves! you have pretty near stript me, theres my wig among ye! I'll put on this patent Narcotic Night cap and sleep till you have come to your senses again, so take yourself off to your advisers! Off with you! off!!!" The objects are constructed of utensils, &c., as in British Museum Satires No. 11822, &c.; they are closely grouped and delicately poised; they totter towards the open door (right). Tea is built up on sugar-tongs for legs, supporting two cups and saucers on which is a tea-caddy; on this rests a large kettle, spouting steam, and itself supporting a pile of sugar-bowl, tea-pot (from which spouts liquid inscribed 'More Wages'), cream-jug, and spoons. A solid cask of 'Home Brewed' is supported on long-stemmed glasses for legs; on it is a tankard of 'No Mans Entire' from which issues froth inscribed 'More Profit'. This is flanked by two bunches of barley. Two long tobacco-pipes, one broken, are legs supporting a canister of 'Best Virginia'; on this is a triangular spittoon, supporting a guttering candle-end in a flat candle-stick; the smoke from this is inscribed 'More Wages'. Nearest the door (right) two spoons support two coffee-cups and saucers on which is a coffee-mill, supporting a milk-jug from which a coffee-pot is falling, spouting 'More Wages'. On the bare floor (left) near a pitcher of 'Water' is an open book, 'The Life of Comoro', with a portrait head."--British Museum online catalogue
