Eight figures in two rows are depicted reading Thomas Paine's pamphlet The Rights of Man, each gesturing dramatically and each with a lengthy quote above his head either praising or denouncing the ideas expressed. On the top row are Edmund Burke (reading the passages referring to himself), Charles Fox, George III, and Charles Jenkinson. In the second row, Queen Charlotte, Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin, William Pitt, and Richard Sheridan seem to address each other in a similarly lively debate of contrasting responses to Paine's arguments

Folding plate (also issued separately) to 'Anti-Jacobin Review', i. 285, illustrating extracts from a pamphlet published by Wright: Considerable allowance to those who purchase Thousands and Tens of Thousands for distribution. A burlesque of the trial of O'Connor at Maidstone (22 May), parts of the court being hidden by the large labels which issue from the mouths of prisoner and witnesses. The presiding judge (Buller) looks down with horror at the witnesses, the other judges are hidden. O'Connor (not caricatured), wearing leg-irons, stands at the bar; his hands are clasped, and he bends forward in profile to the left, making a confession which, though condensed, does not differ substantially from that made by him, McNevin, and Emmet, and published in the Report of the Secret Committee made to the Irish House of Commons on 21 Aug. ('Lond. Chron.', 27 Aug.), ... 'I confess, that I became an United Irishman in 1796 & a Member of the National Executive, from 1796, to 1798. I knew the offer of French assistance was accepted at a meeting of the Executive in Summer 1796: I accompanied the Agent of the Executive (the late Lord Edward Fitzgerald) ...had an interview with General Hoche (who afterwards had the command of the expedition against Ireland) on which occasion every thing was settled between the parties with a view to the descent. ...
