A grotesque caricature attacking the much-debated 1820 settlement scheme which encouraged English people to settle in South Africa, where they were promised fertile land and a pleasant climate. In the print, a working-class English family are shown being attacked by a snake, lion and crocodile while highly stereotyped and racist depictions of the local population are seen cannibalizing the family and burning down their home

"Two sailors ride (right to left) a velocipede (see No. 13399) with two saddles on the elongated bar. At the back is a seat for two passengers in which are two gaily dressed women. The first sailor says over his shoulder: "D--n it Jack this is rare sailing without a wind!" The front wheel collides with a dandy (left), who has dropped his steering-bar (which has dropped to the ground) and is about to fall off. Jack answers: "A very pretty invention Tom! D--n it we shall run down the Dandy!" The dandy (cf. No. 13029) shouts: "Curse you you tarpaulins Wy don't you mind how you steer." One of the women holds a bottle and glass; she looks back saying: "Vy Poll this beats the Dilly [diligence]!! Vy Poll it' s capsized!!" Poll sits back with folded arms, one leg resting on the second sailor's shoulder. She answers: "And we have capsized a Dandy!!" In the background (right) a mail-coach lies on its side; men, women, and luggage from the outside are on the ground; an inside passenger tries to climb from the window."--British Museum online catalogue

A satire of a Gretna Green marriage, taking place in front of smithy's shop. Erskine, disguised in woman's dress with a huge feathered bonnet over a barrister's wig, holds the right hand of a demure-looking woman, modishly dressed and apparently pregnant. He holds a paper: 'Breach of Promise'. With them are three young children. The smith wears Highland dress; he holds a red-hot bar on the anvil and raises his hammer, saying, "I shall make a good thing of this Piece at last." Erskine says: "I have bother'd the Courts in London many times, I'll now try my hand at the Scotch Bar--as to Miss C-- she may do her worst since I have got my Letters back." The woman says: "Now who dare say, Blacks the White of my Eye." In the background (right) a young woman rushes down a slope towards the smithy, shouting, "Oh Stop Stop Stop, false Man, I will yet seek redress tho you have got back your letters--" Beside her is a sign-post pointing 'To Gretna Green'. A little boy with Erskine's features, wearing tartan trousers, stands on tip-toe to watch the smith; on the ground beside him is a toy (or emblem), a cock on a pair of breeches. A little girl stands by her mother nursing a doll fashionably dressed as a woman, but with Erskine's profile. Another boy with a toy horse on a string stands in back view watching 'Miss C'. Behind the smith is the furnace; on the wall hang many rings: 'Rings to fit all Hands.'

"Burdett, young and handsome, stands between two contrasted men. He takes the left hand of a stout good-looking fellow: 'The Genius of Honour and Integrity', and points with a gesture of dismissal to 'The Monster of Corruption', a hideous and grotesque old man who departs to the right, clutching money-bags. Above Burdett's head: 'Look here upon this picture, and on this, And then Judge for Yourselves'. He wears a ribbon like a Garter ribbon inscribed 'MAGNA CHARTA Bill of Rights'. Against the head of 'The Genius of Honour' are inscriptions: 'A sound Mind'; 'An Eye ever watchful to the Welfare of his fellow Citizens.'; 'A Tongue that never belied a good Heart'. On his shoulder: 'A Shoulder that never shrinks in trouble'. A placard across his chest: 'An Upright Breast and an Honest Heart'. On his paunch: 'A Lover of Peace and Plenty A Plain Liver'. His pocket: 'Pocket ever open to the Necessities of his Fellow Creatures'. Knee: 'A Knee to Religion'. Leg: 'Legs ever steady in his Country Cause'. In his right hand, inscribed 'Hand of Justice', he holds a paper: 'A Staunch Supporter of the Bill of Rights An Advocate for a Fair Representation of the People An Enemy to Bribery and Corruption'. 'The Monster' has a large grotesque head; his bald scalp is inscribed 'Professions and Promises'; the eye-socket is covered with a white disk: 'An Eye to Interest'; his projecting nose: 'A Scent for Interest'; his projecting toothless jaw: 'A Mouth of Guile'. He wears a 'Collar of Corruption'. The arm: 'Arms of Power'; hand: 'Hands of Extortion', holding a bag: 'Pensions Reversions Perquisites of Office'. In the left hand: 'Bag of Bribery'. On his chest: 'A Cringinge Soul'. On his paunch: 'Pampered Appetite'. His coat-pocket bulges with 'Secret Service Mony'.

A little boy, standing on the heap with a pitchfork, points to a pool, saying, "Yes & that pond was'nt there when papa first came; Papa made all that water too, all himself!" The foremost visitor registers astonishment; the other three are concerned only with the mud. A frightened boy watches the procession. On the right a woman tries to help her husband, a dandy, from mire that is sucking off his boot, and who holds by the hand (but disregards) a small child who has fallen deep in the muck, terrified at the onset of a menacing duck followed by ducklings. The fat hostess, standing before an unmistakable garden-latrine (right), takes his shoulder, saying, "Never mind my husbands nasty dung--come this way Mr B, & I'll show you my Grotto & Waterfall!" She points to water gushing into a pool from a tiny artificial cave on which stands a Venus pudica. This is flanked by little arbours (each surmounted by a flower-pot which indicates the scale) and each containing a seat. A dove-cot is surmounted by the figure of Harlequin or Mercury holding a purse. Behind are small trees, a haystack, and the roof of the house."--British Museum online catalogue

In a tavern, a group of men, several of them with very large bellies, sit around a table with a large punch bowl in the center; they are smoking pipes, some laughing at their companion who has just been struck with a stick by a large woman; others look up in alarm while still others continue to read. In preparing for another strike she accidentally hits the innkeeper wearing an apron behind her as he brings in another punch bowl, which spills as raises his arms. Above the fireplace is picture of a man racing a horse; another print of a horse hangs above the door. Their hats hang on pegs on the walls around the room

"Scene on a high-road passing through a village. Those who see their livelihood threatened by mechanical transport (cf.

In the foreground a dismounted dandy lies on his back, while a fat veterinary surgeon stands with one foot on his chest, squirting a syringe into his mouth. A stalwart blacksmith is breaking the machine into small pieces. The dandy, who is very thin, with a wasp waist, exclaims: "I swear by my stays [cf. British Museum Satires No. 13394], I never will mount a Hobby again! don't now you'll take all the stiffening out of my collar and frill." The man answers: "I'll only give you a dose to make you remember! and if ever I catch you again you shall swallow all the contents of my shop!" The smith says: "That's right Doctor! if we don't exterminate these Hobbies, you'll never have to bleed or drench or I to shoe." Behind him (left) are houses bordering a village street. The mistress and maid of an inn, with 'Man and Horse taken in' over the gate, watch delightedly. Next door is a smithy: 'Anvil Smith and Farrier &c.', adjoining the thatched and gabled cottage of 'Drench Veterinary Surgeon Cows Asses & Dogs cured'. In the middle distance an ostler prises a dandy out of his seat with a pitchfork; he shouts: "D-n you but I'll spoil your sitting! if the Doctor can't get horses to dose he shall have asses to plaster! D-n me! I shall never have an opportunity of cheating a horse of his corn any more if these Hobbies come in Use." The road curves to the left and recedes in perspective, a sign-post pointing 'To Coventry'. A man eggs on a dog to attack a retreating hobby-rider; and a tiny fugitive in the distance shouts: "Dick! steer clear of the Blacksmiths in the next village and put up your Hobby where there is no stabling."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"The Regent, very tipsy, one leg on the supper-table, leans back in his chair, putting a hand under the chin of each of two very fat maidservants who stand one on each side. One (left) stands with her back to the fire where a large steak is grilling; she holds a pair of steak-tongs and a glass of wine. He says to her: "Dolly I admire your Chops and now for your Rump I shall find out the beauties of the Kremline in time! Dolly I have a great mind to make you a Dutchess you'll make a nice fat Dutchess, and Cis here shall be a Countess. Should you like to be a Dutchess Dolly?" She answers: "Any thing your Hiness chuses to make me!" General Bloomfield has risen from his chair (right) to hand a glass of wine to the other, saying, "Come Cis take a glass of Claret my girl Countesses [sic] a countess should drink nothing but Claret." Men cooks and soldiers crowd in a doorway (right) to watch. One (? Carême) says: "Got tam! vat he go do Dolly? My Dolly!" Another says to him: "Ah ha! I think you are done with Monr Fricasee." On the table are decanters, &c., and two candelabra. See British Museum Satires No. 13208, &c. The Pavilion, with its onion domes, was called the little Kremlin."--British Museum online catalogue

"Folding frontispiece to "A Political Lecture on Heads, alias Blockheads!! A Characteristic Poem: . . .Drawn from Craniological Inspection, after the Manner of Doctors Gall and Spurzheim, of Vienna. By Don Juan Asmodeus. London. Printed for the Author, and Published by John Fairburn, 2, Broadway, Ludgate-Hill (Price One Shilling)." Ten half length caricature portraits arranged in two rows, and, except for the last two, in separate compartments, each illustrating a section of the verse-satire. The date is after Peterloo (16 August 1819), see British Museum Satires No. 13258, and before the King's death (29 Jan. 1820). [1] 'Derry-Down-Triangle', Castlereagh, with ass's ears, his head, adorned by a tiny gibbet, turned in profile to the left, holds up a scourge. On a scroll is the motto 'EIREN·GO·BRAY' (see British Museum Satires No. 13301). [2] 'State Jackal', Canning, directed to the left, holds a pistol in each hand. On his head is a triangle, bells hanging from its apex as from a fool's cap. Behind him is a package inscribed 'Lisbon 20.000 weight'. For his much-attacked mission to Lisbon see British Museum Satires No. 12872, for the duel with Castlereagh, British Museum Satires No. 11370, &c. [3] 'Quack Doctor' [cf. British Museum Satires No. 9849], Sidmouth, in profile to the left, holds a pike on which is speared a ball inscribed 'Circular Pills' [see British Museum Satires No. 13282, &c.]. On his head is a pestle and mortar inscribed 'Drugs for John Bull'. At his back is a large 'Bible' (like Liverpool he was an Evangelical). [4] 'Chancery Jack', the shoulders of Eldon, who scowls to the right, emerge from a 'Coal Tub' (as son of a Newcastle hoastman or coal-broker). He wears wig and gown, across his forehead is a bandage inscribed 'In Chancery'; from his mouth issues the word 'Equity'. [5] Liverpool, in profile to the left, spoons into his mouth liquid from a bowl of 'Water Gruel for the Poor' held in his left hand. On his head is a round tea-tray inscribed '£4.000'; on this are two cups and an urn inscribed 'Cordial Tea'. [6] 'Croaking-Frog--' Croker sits, pen in hand, in profile to the left; on his head is a frog. At his shoulder is a flag inscribed Dry . Rot . In . Navy' above two broken anchors. He says "Fal de Raltit," and before him is a paper: 'Talavira [sic] Algiers 2000'. He has an oddly shaped seat, resting his arm on a 'Quarterly Review', above a longer (curved) block inscribed 'Couriers'. (He was Secretary to the Admiralty, see British Museum Satires No. 12310, author of 'Talavera', a leading contributor to the 'Quarterly', and (with Arbuthnot) manager of the Press for the Ministry.) [7] 'Dunderass--' Lord Melville (First Lord of the Admiralty), in tartan, is in profile to the left, holding a pinch of snuff. Across his chest is a broad band: 'Pickings of Dad 60.000 [see British Museum Satires No. 10377, &c.] Place 10.000.' He wears a curious head-dress topped by a man-of-war surrounded by smoke. [8] 'Waterloo-Man--' Wellington, so styled by Hone, see British Museum Satires No. 13302, stands in profile to the left, wearing a cocked hat on which stands a cannon. He holds a dagger transfixing a bleeding heart; behind his back is a bundle inscribed 'Iquisition' [sic], across his chest is a placard: 'Coruption [sic] Prize . Money £60.000 Allowances £200.000 &c &c.' The text is a savage attack, e.g.: His soldiers 'sav'd the Spanish nation'; | Sav'd them--to send them to perdition | By 'Ferdinand's' crust [sic] 'Inquisition' [see British Museum Satires No. 13009] and (on Waterloo): The 'General' he'd not aught to do | But scenes of triumph to review [having lingered in Brussels]. For the campaign against pensions see British Museum Satires No. 12781, &c. [9 and 10] 'Chere-Amie', Lady Hertford in profile to the right, holds a sceptre and wears a crown-like coronet. She offers the Regent a large goblet of 'Noyau', saying, "Take another sup my Jewel. Grand-Lama--" The Regent leans back tipsily, his eyes almost closed. A little demon, holding a firebrand, flies towards him, flinging a noose at his head. See British Museum Satires No. 11853."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Three fat Englishwomen, wearing feathered bonnets, are dressing the fair Circassian, see British Museum Satires No. 13391, &c. One laces a corset-bodice, which covers her breasts and reaches almost to the knee. The victim throws up her arms, exclaiming, "Ah! Ah! me no bear dot; too tight; nasty tiff ting Me no eat no drink no do noting at all in dat." The other says: "Poh! Poh Child You will soon be used to them, and we'll shew you what You can do in them." A second woman (left), much more décolletée than the Circassian, holds a collar with vandyked edging. She says: "And then she'll like the nasty tiff ting, as well as we do they keep us in shape! Pray what would the Dandys do without them [see British Museum Satires No. 13394]." On the right are two bearded Persians wearing scimitars and pistols, the so-called eunuchs. One stoops to touch the stiff corset, saying to his companion: "Very good ting Muley No want us guarde now!" The other answers: "Ah! den we go drink de brown tout Hamet!" A woman stands behind them holding out a gown; she says over her shoulder: "Aye and you must drink a rare quantity before it will make men of ye!!" The Circassian's oriental dress and jewelled turban lie on the ground. From a band-box (left) projects an enormous bonnet vulgarly trimmed with feathers and flowers. Behind it is a dressing-table."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A procession of characters riding fantastic velocipedes (see British Museum Satires No. 13399), in profile to the right, each an isolated figure, arranged in two rows divided by a horizontal line. Each machine is an appropriate object mounted on two wheels. [1] 'The Aldermans Hobby'. Fat, drink-blotched, and with gouty legs, he rides a turtle. [2] 'The Sailors Hobby'. He vigorously rides an anchor, despite a wooden leg. He has a pugnacious expression, and a long pigtail. [3] 'The Jews Hobby'. He has a beard and rides a bag of 'Old Clothes'. [4] 'The Doctors Hobby'. A very thin apothecary, a medicine-bottle in his pocket, rides a 'Mortar', using the pestle as a steering-rod. [5] 'The Ireishmans Hobby'. A peasant, with one shoe and stocking, a straw rope twisted round the other leg, rides a bull, holding it by the horns. Cf. (e.g.) British Museum Satires No. 5605, by Gillray. [6] 'John Bulls Hobby'. A jovial and paunchy fellow rides a huge round of beef, inscribed 'Rump of Beef 4p. lb.', the dish being on rollers. He holds up a tankard of 'Porter' and knife in his right hand, sticking a fork into the meat. [7] 'The Welchmans Hobby'. He rides a goat whose legs are planted on two disks inscribed 'Cheese'; he has a goat-like profile and in his hat is a leek. [8] 'The Real Dandy Hobby'. A dandy strides along on a correctly drawn machine. He wears breeches, full in the seat, with spurred top-boots."--British Museum online catalogue

"A scene in Hyde Park. Two dandies (see No. 13029) approach a woman in grotesquely fashionable dress, one from the left, the other from the right; she walks in back view through an opening in the rails, in the direction of a sign-post pointing 'To the Artillery Ground', but looks alluringly over her shoulder at the man on the left who leans eagerly towards her. The other stares through a glass."--British Museum online catalogue

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

"Lord Grantham, in military uniform, wielding the club of Hercules, inscribed 'L G his cane', stands with legs astride, threatening Wooler (left), a tiny 'Black Dwarf, as in British Museum Satires No. 12892, who registers extreme rage or terror. Grantham has enormous moustaches, which fly upwards on each side of his head. A lion's skin hangs from his shoulders, with a solid head which snarls savagely. He wears a bell-shaped shako, long tight trousers strapped under boots, and immense spurs. His left arm, terminating in a huge fist, is extended horizontally. On the left a knock-kneed yokel with bristling moustaches and wearing the cap of a Death's Head hussar, grins in oafish delight, saying, "Well done Col.! well done our side!!! my Zoul! what Honnor this will bring upon our Corpse!!! and if any more Dwarfs or Devils attack's our Regemunt Lord Grant'them all the zame fate, I zay!!" Wooler stands among piles of his paper, 'Black Dwarf', some of which have various inscriptions: 'Strictures on the York Hussars'; 'York you are not wanted'; 'The Devil to Pay'; 'a Lame Story to the Yellow Bonze at Japan'; 'universal Suffrage'; and (adapting 'As You Like It'), 'Then a Soldier, full of Strong Oaths & bearded like the Pard Jealous in Honor Sudden & quick in quarrel seeking the bubble Reputation Ev'n in the printing office'. He wears an ink-pot for hat, with three large pen-feathers; at his waist is a tricolour cockade. On the wall behind him is a framed picture of 'The Yellow Bonze', a grotesque imp, squatting with outspread fingers, and registering surprise. Below is a broadside headed by figures hanging from a gallows."--British Museum online catalogue

"A John Bull rides a 'Velocimanipede', see No. 13411, round the basin in Bushey Park, which is realistically depicted, with its baroque centre-piece. He is a fat 'cit' mopping his forehead; his wig and hat are on a stick fixed in front of the steering-bar. On the seat, labelled 'J.B', his fat wife sits holding a fan, her arm round a thin little girl holding a doll. In the dickey behind (right) is a little boy working the handles which turn the back wheel. In the background across the water is a similar machine, on a tiny scale, followed by a dandy (see No. 13029) on his 'hobby' (see No. 13399)."--British Museum online catalogue

"Three fashionable dandies (see No. 13029) in a well-furnished room. One (left) sings, seated, and with a leg resting on a second (lyre-backed) chair; he leans sentimentally, hand on heart, towards a lutenist reclining on a (Regency) sofa playing an ornate curiously shaped instrument. The third stands behind the sofa, playing a flageolet, and admiring himself in a mirror above the ornate fireplace. The vocalist holds an open music-book: 'Love has eyes.' On the floor beside him are two others: 'The Lovesick Swain set to Music' and 'Our Warbling Notes and Ivory lutes Shall ravish every ear.' Two whole length portraits flank the mirror, one of a lady in quasi-Elizabethan dress, the other of a man similarly dressed, both having pinched waists and full busts. Below one is a picture of 'Vacuna' [Goddess of rural leisure], a blowzy woman lying under a tree; below the other, a grotesque 'Narcissus' admires his reflection. On the end of the sofa sits a grotesquely clipped (and dandified) poodle suckling puppies."-- 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."

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.

"A magistrate, identified as 'the Hon. Sir Thomas McKenny', Mayor of Dublin, sits at a table on a small dais, giving instructions to constables. On the wall behind is a crowned Irish harp. Beside him sits a clerk, pen in hand. Two ladies watch the proceedings, seated by the table. The two constables have large bludgeons; their clothes are patched and ragged, but they have a sanctimonious air. One says: "Plaise your Worship it's a scandalous shame that honest Women can't take a bit of a walk near the Royal Canal but they must shut their eyes! as the place is full of Naked blackguards; cooling themselves this hot weather." The other adds: "Upon my Soul your Honor it's all true they are standing all about the place your worship!" One woman, whose breasts are immodestly exposed, says: "What a Shame!!" The other: "What they say is very true I've seen it myself, it's a great shame." The Mayor rests one gouty foot on a stool; before him is an open book, 'Burns Justice'; its right page is inscribed: '20 pence is 1s.8d--6 & 4 is 10'. He answers with a startled expression: "Cooling themselves by J--!! in the Royal Canal too!!! the Devil burn 'em!!--I'll cool the Vagabonds-- Paddy O' Shaughnessy. I give you & Old O' Calahan the thanks of the Corporation for your Modesty, go to the canal tomorrow & take away all their cloaths, I'll teach the rascals Decency!" The clerk says: "By the Powers! we'll commit them." Two men, barelegged and ragged, look in at the door (left). One says: "Sure we are only diverting ourselves your Worship becase we have no dinner"; the other: "Faith & sure & the'll never lave us to go home Naked!" A dandy stands against the wall looking with quizzical amusement at the Mayor."--British Museum online catalogue

"A sequel to British Museum Satires No. 13397. The Mayor and clerk sit as before. The two constables have brought in three naked bathers, who modestly try to screen their persons with hat, handkerchief, and a basket inscribed 'Sprats from the Royal Canal'. The two women peep in at the door, scandalized; their place near the table is taken by a woman in a red cloak who says: "Blood & Ouns your Worship give poor pat his breeches!!!!" One constable, with coat and breeches over his arm, points to his victims: "Here your Worship, I have brought three of those rebelious Naked Vagabonds before your Lordship to be treated your honor according to Law." The other, also holding ragged garments, stands smugly silent. The men say: [1] "Please your worshipful Lordship tell the Constable to give me my Cloathes--sure & little enough I have of them"; [2] "O! your honor! for the decency of Ireland don't let the Constable sell my poor rags!!!" [3] "By my soul I think is Lordship is going to turn us all into Hottentots." The Mayor, extending a clenched fist, shouts: "You rascals! how dare you presume to cool your selves in the Royal Canal--? No one in this Country must meddle with Royalty--I think I have prevented further indecency on your Parts--give them their cloathes Constable." His left hand rests on a paper: 'Plan for Reforming the City of Dublin'. The two women at the door say: "La what a sight!!!!!!" and "I think it is a greater shame than it was before--I'm quite shock'd to see it." The dandy (? Archer) looks mockingly towards the Mayor, saying, "Well! I think an Archer Bull is not to be found in Joe Miller"."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A midshipman (left) dressed as a dandy (cf. British Museum Satires No. 13029) braces hands and feet against a mast on the extreme left, while four sailors, standing on a turn-table (right), wind up by a windlass a rope attached to his stays (cf. British Museum Satires No. 13394), compressing a wasp-waist. His coat, bell-shaped top-hat, with belt and dirk, are on a chair beside him. He says: "Very well my hearties very indeed--'pon honor. This lacing is not very agreeable, but it will be fully compensated by the grand dash I shall make at East London Theatre tonight--Oh! I shall be most enchanting! Oh, charming! Oh! delightful! after Ive got a pint of Rowlands Maccassar Oil [see British Museum Satires No. 12405] on my head--Pull away! heave away! pull away hearties!!" An old sailor sits on a gun smoking; he leans against the side of the ship, looking over his shoulder to say with a contemptuous grimace: "I say Master Midshipman, I always thought you a little crack-brained; now I'm convinced of it, for as you've turn'd Dandy, that's proof positive--I'ts all up withyou & all I have to say is you're not worth a -- quid of tobacco." Another midshipman, wearing a cockaded top-hat, jeers at the dandy with flexed knees and raised arms: "My Eyes!! Oh Murder! Ha! ha! ha!! Jack Greathead the cheesemonger's son got stays!!! Well, I've a good mind to get petticoats!--these Dandies are a disgrace to Great Britan--" The four sailors pushing hard at the windlass all grin; one asks: "I say, Mainmast, do you intend to get Stays"; Mainmast: "Get Stays! Why man I have stays already & have order'd a pair of Buckskin, & 2 pair of Sealskin, what do you think of that eh?!!" The third, a negro, says: "Me vid tink Massa vid soon have the Belly ache!!" The fourth: "Huzza! don't flinch my boys tho' he call "Stop" don't do so--Heave away my lads give him a twitcher--heave away He, Ho He Ho--!!"."--British Museum online catalogue

"The title continues: "Forth from the Goal Starts the favorite hob -and on his back Firm sits light load, the Dandy, Jerkin'd spruce' Dandies race on the new elocipede. In the foreground three are bunched together, taking enormous strides. The foremost holds a riding-switch in his teeth like a jockey, the last carries a rolled umbrella with a spiked ferrule under his right arm. A handle-bar connected with the hub of the front wheel steers the machine; a saddle is placed over a shallow dip in the main bar or pole, on which is also fastened a horizontal board to support the arms of the riders. In the background (left) a rider falls head first from his machine, which falls across the front wheel of another rider. On the right a frightened dandy, unable to stop, rides over the neck of a prostrate competitor, while behind, a third man stops by digging his heels into the ground. On the extreme right is a mail-coach with the guard blowing his horn."--British Museum online catalogue

A Hyde Park scene illustrating the development in costume since the plate for 1818 (See British Museum satire 13055). The figures seem to be portraits as well as types. The men wear exaggerated hats. A dandy on the left has his hands in his trouser pockets. Collars are more pointed, and cravats and coat collars are higher. The women's dresses are still high-waisted, but now reach to the feet and more bell-shaped. The women no longer tip-toe and the stoop, less pronounced. Those riding and driving in the middle distance include Lord Petersham (left) who drives a high gig, with a groom at his side. The Persian Ambassador is riding with two of his suite (right).
